The car was in the UK for the Goodwood Festival of Speed. I assume they just stuck it on Top Gear since it was there.
As for the engine, not only is it a "20B" but it's built the same way most of them are.. with 13B housings.
Somebody on the RX7 club was at Goodwood and got some nice up-close pictures of the car.

The story ends!
After the shoot, Jeremy Clarkson rummaged in the back of the Top Gear props museum, and found the missing flux capacitors needed! He drove off with Furai, but after arriving at the airport, he forgot to use 10 cans of No-Scent in his luggage! The police dogs sniffed out 80 pounds of cocaine! He had 309 police chasing, but Clarkson was out of energy globes for his area disruptor! He took 1,953 points of damage! He died!

LMAO the apollo front really resembles the rx8 , it looks like a rx8 with wide body fenders. I had no idea that the 3 rotor gets such bad gas mileage. Too bad they didnt drive it

GoSpoddyGo!!!
i remember reading about this in the top gear mag, as it had the stig standing beside the furai on the front cover.
i also read about him driving it and seen a pic of the stig in the car???
so it sounds strange when they say they did not get driving it etc, as i remember them saying by the time they got in etc the car was well warmed up and took off like a rocket sorta stuff. i did read it quickly in the newsagents though, but did see photos they took.
