I've been too busy to start on the Cosmo, as I am still finishing my RX-7 project. This spring/summer, however, I will start work on the Cosmo. As soon as I have some space in my shop.

See my other videos referencing "Project Tina" or my "turbo-NA bridgeported RX-7". Also Google "aaroncake project tina".

Oh man, just noticed a 944 behind the Cosmo. Should've bought that too. ^^

I think a 944 with a rotary would be pretty interesting. I've seen one with a V10 from a Viper before... The guy had to do extensive modifications to the firewall and front subframe to get it to fit.

The 944 was stored in the same lot as I was storing the Cosmo, but it belongs to someone else. Believe it or not, underneath it was like Swiss cheese. A 944 with a rotary seems odd. Just get a 2nd gen RX-7 instead and have a sleeker looking, better handling and more reliable car in the first place.

Thank you. I just pulled apart the donor engine on the weekend. The housings are junk but I will use the Cosmo housings in combination with the GSL-SE end plates to make an "old school" 6 port 13B.
