Well, that's why this thing has always ran like sh**..
So, my hard starting issues have gotten increasingly worse as of late..and everything was new but the plugs. I sorta wished I had checked them before. I found 4 trailing plugs...installed in the car. I'm totally mind fucked. How does that even happen?
The good news is it still starts like ****, but it idles excellent now...and I now know sorta what it's supposed to feel like.
I'm so pissed, yet so perplexed at the same time..

Haha that is very odd. How long have you owned the car? Was this your first time changing the plugs on it? Maybe the previous owner just took it to a shop which obviously didn't know much about rotaries so they just threw some trailing plugs on it.
Also, when was the last time you changed the starter? And have you gotten the upgraded starter from the S2 models?

It likely idles from the new plugs...not the trailing in the leading problem.
The car fires the trailing plugs first at idle anyway
Trailing plugs are a bit cooler so would foul easier...but other than that they are only just slightly shorter. Better 4 trailing than 4 leading plus...which are too long for the Trailing holes

That's what I'm thinking. Engine number 3 time.
