Possible, yes, will anyone do it, nope. It was done in a drag car but there was nothing mx-3 left in it besides the look a like body.

The biggest problem is there are no front wheel drive mazda rotary transmissions. If you wanted to convert your car to rear drive then the rotary engine swap would be the easy part :p
