     BTW one does not have to use a Mazda RX8 sensor. Mazda will probably charge
     and arm and a leg for it anyway. There are a zillion sensors out there.
     A nail with a few turns of wire would probably work. A couple of buck hall
     effect sensor will work fine. Contact Tracy (if you can get him to answer his email :))
     and ask him for his recommendations.

We are trying to use bolt on solutions so that other people can copy rather than every install be a custom one, may be optomistic but no sense in deliberately trying to reinvent the wheel for every
part we use.

Good luck Chrissi. My guess is a sensor bracket would be far easier than adapting
the RX8 front cover to a 2nd or 3rd gen rotary. the RX8 ignition sensor/trigger is
a major advance over a 2nd gen crankangle sensor and a minor advance over a 3rd gen.
