I know this thread is a bit old but just in case your still wondering on how too stuff that rew in your rx3.... Here's what I've done on my Rx3 with the 13brew T2 trany. It's been done may time before and with very little modification. You'll need a first gen Rx7 front cover as mention before to fit the motor into the stock Rx3 motor mount. The Turbo 2 trany is a bit too bulky at the very end to fit in the tunnel. the only modification you will need is to shave the two post on both side of the tunnel, this the one you bolt your transmission mount into. One last thing you'll need to do is shorten the transmission tail section, this will shorten the transmission by 4" allowing it to line up in the shifter hole on the floor. Oh almost forgot you'll need a new drive shaft.
