This is interesting. NMNA.
I am selling my Highly Modified Porsche 914, Pictures say a thousand words, Custom Clarion widebody conversion. This is no hack job 23,000 in receipts Kennedy Bell Housing conversion B13 rotary that was bridge ported 225 hp Done by mazda beat in Californian. 265-50-15 wide fuchs wheels this car is well done and is scary fast.
Wow very well done, Idk about the price and 225HP is not really possible with what he has there, but I would low ball him an offer.
That widebody kit is horrendous - the car looks like a reject from the back lot of Miami Vice. I'd be much more interested in a stock 914 even if I had to pay more. Is there a hidden turbo or something?
In reply to T.J.:
Couldn't agree more. I like the concept, hate the execution (IE Kill it with fire).
In reply to T.J.:
Not unless it's blowing through that Holley 
awww, cmon people. With that body kit and the rotary noises, you could tell everyone its a ferrari and most would believe you. looks like ferrari red already.
In reply to JtspellS: Can't get 225hp out of a bridgeport?
225 is easy out of bridge ported rotary.
That body kit kills it for me...
So much cool wrapped in so much ugly.
"Done by mazda beat in Californian"
Anybody who knows berkeley all about their well-known engine builder to the point of getting their name THAT wrong is not the kind of person I'd buy a $15k car from. And yes, it IS hideous.
I was so excited by the “Rotary 914” subject line but when I opened the link, I could literally hear that game show booby price trombone riff play as the disappointment permeated through my body and went on to eat away at my soul.

Yeah drunk posts usually don't come out too well, dont mind me.....
The engine is so good because Racing Beat and Mazdatrix combined forces to become MazdaBeat just for this build.

Yea that's what went through my head too.
Of course it could be one of those JDMyo 1 of 0 prototype engines that a buddies fiends girlfriends dad father-in-law bought in a dusty box from a mystic samurai in the back of a warehouse while on vacation in Japan that were so popular in the early 90s.

Is this the same guy who has a website detailing the build where he keeps calling it a B13 engine, even though it says 13B in various locations and everyone else calls it a 13B and the engine is actually called a 13B?

Yeah, probably is. I chalk it up to willful stupidity. It's not ignorance if the information stares you in the face.
the thought of a rotary 914 is very intriguing...just not THIS rotary 914
I don't have much of a problem with the body kit, yeah it has a bit of the "turn your Fiero into a Testarosa" look to it, but I could deal with that...if the seller wasn't clueless and the price was realistic.
