Rx3 Info and Advice wanted...

You can change the front engine cover from a RX7 12a (maybe earlier 13b??) for the front engine mounts. You'll need to make a new front mount braket to move the motor/tranny back to make room for an electic fan. The RX3 tranny tunnel has a fair bit of room so tranny should fit, may have to deal with room for the clutch fork and the oil pan will cause you grief. Dry sump or custom oil pan. You will have to deal with the shifter location. If you move the battery back to the trunk(boot?) you'll have room for the turbo.

I'ts all been done and yes the auzie web site is a wealth of info.
