well u must be puerto rican like me cause we are the crazy ones puttin rotaries where they dont belong i got an 81 toyota starlet with 12a nitroso turbo 2 tranny its way easy to do a transplant first make sure they make the front engine mounts pa los dos puntos con una barra de metal gordita y bien soldada bolted to the chassi then u gotta make the mounts for the tranny underneath the car. most times u gotta cut the tunnel so ur shifter fits then get a custom rear end the easiest one is from 60s low 70s datsun pick ups cause u dont gotta cut em nor the axles just relocate the brackets and thats it for last get a custom driveshaft made on ur favorite driveshaft shop get some weld racing rims couple of msd boxes relojeria buen cloche nitro y mucha gasolina and enjoy ur ride

RebeldeRotary did give you info.

first make sure they make the front engine mounts pa los dos puntos con una barra de metal gordita y bien soldada bolted to the chassi
I think he said, "first make sure they make the front engine mounts for the two points (mounts) with a thick metal bar properly welded and bolted to the chassis".

I guess the Corollas are really light, makes it a good candidate for a rotary.
