    Adam's Canadian 13B Rotary 818-SR Build

    I decided to list most of my mods here and something of a table of contents, the actual build thread starts just below...

    Chassis #91 818S
    Drivetrain
    '96+ Jdm 13b rotary from a twin turbo RX7
    -single BW 8374 twin scroll turbo on custom manifold
    -Subaru 5mt via Volks Conversion adapter plate
    -GM DBW throttle body
    -AEM smart coils x4
    -cx racing a2a intercooler and 19 row oil coolers
    -magnaflow strait through muffler and high flow cat
    -AEM Infinity ECU

    Round Stuff
    XXR 531's 18x11 +20 and 18x8.5 +20
    Nitto NT01 305/35/ZR18 245/40/ZR18
    Z32 Nissan aluminum callipers
    DBA STI 2-piece front rotors, WRX rear


    page 3......First mention of the 13b rotary
    page 4......Test fit engine
    page 7......Fitting wide wheels
    page 9......Wiring
    page 10....A2A and exhaust fab
    Page 14....Widebody build

    The day finally arrived! I was hoping to get it before christmas so I could start working on it over the holidays, but to be honest I'm still not ready for it. Still need to prep and paint my donor parts, but now that the kits here I'll just paint everything together. I'm a welder by trade, and plan to fabricate a few things along the way. At work we often joke that after 30 years of welding you get an honorary Over-engineering degree, but I'm nowhere near that so I welcome critics from our communities real engineers.

    These first few pics are a bit blurry, taken with my iPhone. I'll use my camera to document the rest of the build.


    This is my 2007 Impreza RS donor




    Not sure what happened here...
