just joined as this looks like one of the best sources of info, By way of introduction; i am the purchaser of the rotary s1, it is registered in utah as a 2009 after some dancing around, me thinks that California dmv was glad to see it go. it will be used mostly on the street, perhaps some "solo", actually I have a manx clone that is about as fast and comes close to handling as well. (Better on dirt or gravel). It was not a trailer queen and never will be again, am 69, a scouch immature, and do like to go fast. have done some off road and ran pikes peak in 72 open wheel. the si shows some quality and lack of engineering, and it looks like superformance has abandoned it as far as support goes, snakebite has a good engine install manual but looks as if you are on your own as far as the chassis goes, engine too in this one, it currently has a webber 48 and is na, having thoughts about a late jdm turbo motor. greetings, john

Congrats John...:)

 

My wife would not believe me when I told her that a 69 year old guy is going to drive down from Colorado to buy the car if didn't buy it right there on the spot. I was actually at his front door when you were talking to him on the phone...:) Once again, congrats on your purchase...:)

The seller told me that there was some guy who wanted it but his wife was making him sell one first. when I asked my ex bed warmer about it, she said "if you think you will have that much in your account when you die this would be a good place to spend it". Would have rather had a 4 stroke motor and since it is a driver the first thing that happened was two turbo mufflers to tone it down a bit. have limited experience with rotarys but have a set of turbos from the later models and also have a matched set of vnt-25s. it now has a 48 weber and may switch to a dell or a pair of su hifs and blow thru, it is a small car and needs to be kept simple. aging is mandatory, maturity is optional.

the truth be known, the rx-7 could be faster and is certainly more civilized. (very few of us are capable of stressing a 7), used mine on long road trips and even camped in it for a couple of weeks, too bad it had to scratch it's back.
