[quote=MazdaManiac;3357536]And, for the record, I am seriously considering an LS2 swap after seeing what is possible on the Miata.

 

You might believe the Rotary is the "soul" of the RX-8, but I just look at the car as an excellent chassis. The motor is inconsequential.

 

When I think about the effort and money I (and others) have spent to drag the Renesis kicking and screaming up to a meager 400/300 it kinda makes me a bit queasy.

 

For roughly the price of a turbo system, you can have the car balance out the same, but with 400/400 and none of the "quirks" of the rotary that so many of you find cute.[/quote]
