Marek Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 The, very, different engine configurations used by Rotus don't lend themselves well to a cohesive group. I can think of four owners active on the forum at the moment and we have four different engines: BMW M10, Toyota 2L Twincam, Ford Pinto, and Mazda Rotary. But I am always happy to help out on the rest of the car. Right now, the cowl is off on mine to make access to the dash easy while I work on the electrics.

ptegler Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 save the engines, the rest of the car appears to be 95% the same parts. A few mods to a-arm lengths (threaded upper knuckle exposure) a couple dash versions, (switch locations, gauges mounted through vs only behind the dash) chin spoiler molded into earlier nose cones (absent later on) I've alos noted a difference in mastyer cyl mountings. ealier seem to be cast brackets, while later cars got fully adjustable position Tilton pedal assemblies. But all still used the very inexpensive Toyota master cyls. Even my M10 powered BMW 4 speed, and the TR8 5 speed used in V8's all used the same Toyota master cyl.

Tom Buchanan Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 My serial number is a reassigned # which often happens to kit cars. It' R-2147-VA Issued from Virginia. It has the twin cam Toyota 4AG 16 valve 4 cylinder. I like the 7 in your front grill and would like to find stainless steel rock shields for the rear fenders. What size of tires and wheels are you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptegler Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 as what's on your title... but didn't Custers crew stamp a number on the cross bar that supports the steering column in the engine compartment just forward of your pedal mount assy. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Buchanan Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 I was wrong. It's a 92. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptegler Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 no reason to be sorry.... saw the 98 and thought cool! even later than mine so might have MANY similarities. ,,,then saw the 1992. Still though these two should be quite close to the same. Yours is the only other I've seen that used the Ford Probe turn signal/bright lights switch besides mine. (took quite awhile for me to find what that was sources from.... (Factory Five guys on their forum use them)) let us all know as you dive in, what quirks, how the hell.... , WTFs, etc you run across. :-) We're all learning from each other at the same time, old and new. ptegler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Buchanan Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 That's the one. I'm in Parkersburg West Virginia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marek Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 Did your car come with a delivery binder? It looks in great shape and well cared for; so I'll guess it came with good documentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
