Red face Kno any s13 coupe for sale?! HelP mE

So hard to find one... I check craigslist.org all the time! Im just lookin for any coupe cuz i want to be different than all the hatches, and i used to have a lude and id prefer a trunk to a hatch [like my old 89 integ]...

*dont care about looks or anything, just a good frame [no rust, cracks, warped, major accidents]
*5sp, unless cheap enough for me to pay for a auto to 5spd swap
*Even slavage title is ok, as long as the frames OK
*a driver seat, wheels, etc.. u get the idea

Let me kno, send me an email, or maybe AIM: jy116

Thanks

rotary has it's advantages and disadvantages,

corvette, mercedes, etc all experiment with rotaries, but the traith died out because gas was sacred at the time. Also corvette makers believe corvette is an all american car, and CANNOT use german engineering.

the best part about rotaries is 3 simple moving parts control everything, but the problem is everything rely on the apex seal (piston rings) so one strong knock can destroy it.

it's small design can make the body of the car very ez to design a good sports car but it's lack of torque made it impossible to be in a heavier car, that's why fd and fc and fb are soo light.

stock rotaries can handle up to 30 psi, said and done.

rotaries were cheap but hard to find good rebuilders make the price tag go way up.

mazda **cked up on the design of the turbo (not all mazda fault but it's partial for getting cheap ihi's) which made the turbo rotary a "bad" car. over boosting problems.

same goes with the fd, heat problems..

i talk too much makes me look like a dictionary, rotaries are great for competition but sucks in street. that's why i want me a 2.4L maybe a 5.0L? gas becoming expensive..hehehe..

sold the FC, i ran 12.2, some guy wanted it, sold it.
