When you've done a RB30DET conversion into a BMW or a 13b rotary conversion then maybe you can call them sh*t. But for now i think you should keep your offending comments to yourself. How can you even coment on someone elses conversion in a BMW when your don't even own one?Just remember BMWs are sometimes not the best motors and some of them are slow and slugish so why not put a japanise motor in there when its cheap and reliable. Not everyone can afford to go out and bye a M3 motor for their E30, some take the easyer option. Cheers Matt

The reason why your brothers RB30 is so good is cos those nissans everything is so balenced well, non the less a m20 would weigh much the same i think.The rotary conversion is not hard to do, like if you had all the parts you needed as in radiator, oilcooler and little things like that aswell as a motor g.box, and a mazda driveshaft, I could do the conversion in a week. Thats with my mate mounting the motor and g.box and the driveshaft modifacation. Only thing is exhaust which is no biggy just go to the muffler shop and geta whole new system. But non the less you don't want to be doing a rotary conversion unless you have sources to get the parts needed, and a lot of money. But you pay for what you get. Just remember you need a very deep wallet, as i have found out. hope that helps Cheers matt

I think you're legaly alowed to go 2" bigger in diameter on your wheels. They tryed saying something to me before i had a cert when i went for a wof with 17"s :bounce: on my e30, al i did was went to the tire shop they gave me a document saying they are within 5% of the original fitted wheels so sweet as. cheers matt

Well i'v got 12a in my E30, a 13b is 10mm longer. It fits in there pret easy, mouting its not a problem, you have problem when you come to exhaust getting around the steering arm. Also you have to run non powersteer rack unless you want to run a mazda powersteer pump. Yes it is lots of fun, but in all onesty rotarys arnt so much fun. They involve alot of care, and are very tempremental. But aslong as you get a proper motor built out of brand new parts you should be right. I think you should go for a rb30 or something along the 2.5 or 3 litre lines as they are relyable and can can produce good power, also there alot of go fast bits that is a matter of jst bolting them on to make more horsepower.cheers Matt

Most muffler shops make extractors. For usually around $100 per cilinder. Cheers matt

They are a different design. You can use either but the FL one is a stiffer design to improve the pedal feel. I have a spare PreFL one kicking around. Id bye keen on that.Whats the price?

Not to much difference between a 12a and 13b mate, yeah there are 98 cc bigger and a lil bit more torquey but f**k all, rotors aint got f**k all torque unless its forced induction,
