There will be something on the site about a rotary conversion - see what Mr Search can find for you http://www.sigma-galant.com/search.php Remember, the search function is your friend

already have it turned up 2 results, someone else asking about a rotory conversion in a sigma and someone asking about a auto conversion

There was a guy who did a turbo 13b conversion with a GH about 10years ago......number plate was towie

From what i understand, theres some form of write up ort forum on the car.....that might have some info perhaps

I stripped a Galant sedan that had a 13B in it.
It had a 13B, Mazda 5 speed (sorry I don't know what model 5 speed) and Ford 9 Inch diff.
To pass engineering it had GH front struts, larger master cylinder (I think someone said it was from a Nissan Patrol), it still ran the factory 2 leaf rear springs (which astounded me) with Galant sedan rear drums fitted (again, this astounded me). But as I said it was engineered (although early 2000's or late 90's).

What else do you want to know?

I will be doing a 13b conversion with one of my LC's but it will be a race car only and I have most of the bits I require.

You need.....
Custom engine mounts
Custom gearbox mounts
bigger raditor
oil cooler
different tailshaft
hydraulic clutch conversion
modified firewall for clutch fork
intercooler
surge tank and pumps
bigger fuel lines
upgraded brakes and diff

.......just to start with. I havent included computer, wiring, etc...... yet either.

Massive job and there is not a lot of room under the car for everything either. Will be good fun if you get it going and it will upset the purists!

the tunnel will need to be modded if your using a supra gearbox, but (not 100%) if using mazda rotary box
