Not too many people who have done these swaps would argue that it's CHEAP, either!

In the specific case of the rotary, there's no such thing as reliable, as far as I can tell. I met the highly respected author of a very detailed and extensive recipe for building a relatively modest *reliable* rotary turbo (~350 whp or so) at an event, and his had low compression on one rotor and was down ~50 or so whp. And he wasn't surprised at all. If you're running a rotary hard with any frequency, you're pulling it out and rebuilding regularly.

So, yeah, I guess I am "cheap" and "lazy" after all...
if you buy a rotary car and then bitch about it being rotary arent you kind of a dumbass for buying it?

if you want a camaro or a corvette go buy one.
if you want a supra with an alloy v8 there are plenty of toyota options.
hell just look at what MA-Motorsports has done with their nissan drift program.
