Hi Chaps,

Does somebody know where to buy à Mazda Wankel and  the associated turbo charger?
Any idea of the prices.
... and is somebody knowing this engine in Europe?

(I live in Europe (and unfortunately in France))

Driving around Europe I saw the most Mazda RX7's in Switzerland.
Most people just buy 2nd gen turbo II RX7's and take the engines out.


Keep checking e-bay in the states. Let me know when you find one.
It is theoretical possible to ship it to France. Especially stripped down
and in parts.

Also if you take it apart you are allowed two bags that weigh 50 pounds each
as check on luggage. I think you can pay a bit more if they are over 50 pounds
by a little bit. The bare engine weighs under 200 pounds. Two people with a complete
engine in their check on luggage :)

Of course any rotary can be turboed as they are all robust enough
for a turbo charger.


There was a guy at Aero with a Mazda powered airplane.
He was a classical music horn player. If you can find him he might be able
to help.
