If you wanna save money on brakes and put it towards doing a full blown engine swap.... get an rx7.

If you want a cheap and easy platform, get a 240sx.
I would definalty have to beg to differ on those statements...like I said a turbo rotary swap and a sr20det are about the same price with a sr being on the more expensive side (go drift tax) a turbo rotary will make more power than a stock block sr any day and most built sr's as well.

A rotary engine though is only as good as the person who owns it...if you are not willing to take the time to learn about what exactly the engine is all about and what not to do with it than yes it blows up easily...if you keep the heat out of it, don't let it knock, and keep the carbon out of it the rotary is just as reliable and stong as any piston engine out there.
