I am in need of a side mounted starter, anybody out there have a cosmo
bell housing and starter or similar? Does the Automatic version of the
RX7 have a side mounted starter?

Anybody with parts they are willing to part with let me know and we can
work out a price.

Will the Cosmo parts work on the Renesis?

Lots of questions, no answers,

I don't think so Monty. My manual RX8 starter looks like a 2nd gen sort of.
Last picture.

However the auto tx version of the RX8 eng looks like the third gen
and the Cosmo starter. 1st and 2nd pictures.

The Cosmo only came as an auto and didn't have a separate bell housing,
however the bolt pattern is the same from 78' to 02' with the minor
exception on ONE bolt moved from left side to right side on the cosmo
and REW trannies. that's it. the RX8 is 'suppose ' to be similar but so
far it's the only engine I haven't worked on yet.. not allot of tunners
with rx8's in Canada yet.
