  • wouldn't the construction of a 4 rotor be nothing more than the custom machining of a new e-shaft (for timing purposes), a solid partition between the #2 and #3 rotors, and an extra motor's worth of parts? i mean, the motor has a certain "modular" aspect to it as where a cylinder motor would need a whole new casting. it seems, to me, 2 rotary motors would be a hell of alot easier to mate together than 2 conventional motors.

  • Dear Santa...

  • Totally dead end technology.

  • it's based off of 2 FD3S 13B-REW engines, making it a 4 rotor 2.6L engine. sounds like they balanced it to be phased at 90* evenly.

  • sounds like my sled

  • thats a crazy rx7

  • wild looking rx7!! i really like the back end

  • thats brutal!

  • actually, you wrong about one thing, this is not a 26b, and it is not made from 2 13bs. this is a 24a, composed of 4 12a housings and a costom eccentric shaft.

  • @veilsidewankel making it an 8 rotor? wouldn't it be 2x 12a's? look at the build on their website. its two 13b's

  • @callanbull i wrote 4x 12a housings, as in rotorhousings, that makes 4rotors, not 8.

    a 24a engine ;)

  • @callanbull 23a.

  • dude,it may fly

  • Wow.. that is come crazy fast spin-up.

  • Man I hate videos like this. All you see are the 4 rotor cars just reving or burning out somewhere. Go DRIVE the damn thing already and film it.

  • Sweet!

  • Sounds like one of those little mini fans that light up and shit.

  • I had to shut this off at first i thought i turned on a porno

  • lol not gonna lie i love my rx7 its got the 13b but iv noticed from my 7 and other 7s they kinda sound like 2 stroke dirt bikes lol

  • hp/tq numbers?

  • sick bodykit

  • sounds like a pissed of blender...

  • great

  • wat 95 people who have bad taste in tuning and no respect for the love for cars no matter wat kind even hondas

  • Look up madmike or madbull that's a four rotor with plenty to say for it self

  • Holy fuck.

  • High revs = friction = heat = short engine life. Would rather have a v-8 that makes much more power and last twice as long.

  • @lt1bird348just note the v8 weighs more and the power curve is different.

  • @cdoublejj It may weigh a little more. But the broader torque curve makes up for it.

  • @cdoublejj No way, an LS1 weighs only a little more than ONE twin turbo 13b

  • @666cemetaryslut witch isn't the same as an R26b. they all have there pros and cons I like each for it's uniqueness if want a v8 then i'll get car with v8 witch we have few of already. now a Jap mid 90s rx 7 with quad rotor R26B would be something different.

  • @cdoublejj Whoever said anything about rb26's?? You said a v8 weighs more than a 13b, and if your going to swap a v8 into an FD chances are it would be an LS1 (which is an amazing combo btw, power/torque and reliability)

  • @666cemetaryslut well i guess so, a v8 would crush a 2 or 3 rotor. I'd prefer a 4 rotor in an rx7 cause it seems to me the v8 is old news and too easy a combo guess i'm weird. I like something different not that i don't like v8s we have several v8 cars at home and grew up around them so i guess now a day i look forward to the straight 6s and high revving 4 bangers and the most unique, the quad rotor. any thing will make power if you have the money and or knowledge.

  • @666cemetaryslut You said a v8 weighs more than 2 13b's, my bad

  • @lt1bird348

    You seem to forget completely that wankel engines have much less moving parts, thus not so much friction as traditional otto-engines, like V8s.

  • Supra is the only Japanese car that somewhat impresses me.

  • @lt1bird348 have you forgot about the rb26 skyline?

  • @evoman00 No.

  • Sounds like a leaf blower...

  • Love that sound! Why did you have to put that gay ass rear end on there. Looks like a Toyota Camry.

  • @flipRx7 It's MAZDA RX-7

  • @chales200982 IT IS??? DURRR Yes i know its a rx7...by my name and me owning a rx7...i would know I just think it looks like a camry from the rear.

  • @flipRx7 the lights are from a nissan president a very large luxury car nissan sell in japan only

  • @flipRx7 looks more like a mercedes benz sl550 in the back... not a camry

  • @ericascaliboy Yeah thank you very much for correcting me...did you have to correct me? Jesus...

  • @flipRx7 hoy, pare, calm down... nothing hostile here... jesus

  • @flipRx7 its a mercedes rear end...

  • @jasonking959 Thanks for sharing!!

  • @jasonking959 sorry, its not a mercedes rear end.. the tail lights are from nissan gloria Y34... the back is made long so that it is stable at high speed(the car was built for high speed runs)

  • @The89shachan sorry, but youre the one thats wrong, i have multiple articles on this specific car sitting in front of me it uses merc tail lights and a custom former rear bumper, etc.

  • @jasonking959 er, do you mind if u could show me that article? but i read it at the scoot japan website themselves.. you may not understand this website because it's in japanese, but u can always use google translate.. i've seen the nissan gloria's tail lghts and it is exactly the same as the one in this rx7.. i really want to see that article you read.. because i might be wrong..

  • @flipRx7 he just destroyed the one thing that was in love with that car...the stock ass is better than my girls...

  • @flipRx7 they got best aero like this

  • I just heard my wallet blow up!

  • Nice engine.

    ....Stock Rx-7 looks prettier.

  • sounds like a leaf blower

  • i saw that exhasut glowing from how hot that damn thing gets.. holy shit

  • Who cares how they did it. I'm not even an import fan and i would give a kidney to take that thing for a few laps. Sounds mean as hell but kinda like a pissed off hoover.....

  • @dracozeus2007 lol @ kidney

  • Sounds really sick, Kudos! I'm gonna look for some dyno's and maybe 1/4mile if u ahve any

  • kinda looks like a mercedes slr

  • @45Mang i thought mazda had made a merc at first lol

  • @crustydemonsully i think they do, parts do come in from japan to mercedes... and i dunnoh, i guess if toyota makes scion and lexus for the uS, i guess mazda makes the mercedes for the germans. makes sense but not quite sure.

  • What did he do? Elongate the centershaft in the 13-REW?

  • Damn I want an engine like that were can i get one and I like the noise it makes

  • I'm diggin the enkei rpf1's :p

  • なぜに後ろがシーマ?

  • uiui

  • nice sounds like f1 car at hi revs love it

  • you people need to compare power to weight ratio.

    i like muscle, it has its place. but that scoot sports quad rotor probably corners quite well as well, probably weighs somewhere around 3100/3200lbs. small car like the mustang with a v8 weighs 3200lbs stock.(even old ones)

    corvette, with an all aluminum motor, plastic/carbon fiber and an advanced chassis weighs 3200lbs, but has only around 4-500hp.(non zr1)

    hp/liter is a ricer term. anyone who uses it should be shot.

  • @Truenofan

    and then you also have to compare drag coefficient. combining the both gives you short stretch acceleration and top speed. far more important than some stupid contest of "ZOMG I HAVE 400HP AND 2 LITERS!". only honda drivers care about that.

  • @Truenofan not being a dick just curious....so a 2.0 that puts out 300 plus HP is a bad term to use...sounds impressive to me

  • @zcarver25

    rather than care about hp/liter, whats the wet weight of said 2 liter that puts out 300hp. if its an iron block its utterly pointless and stupid to brag about it as the engine weighs a ton and messes with the weight distribution. which is why the LS series engines with their all aluminum engine is quite impressive, as it weighs about as much as a turbo 13b and can output around 400-500hp n/a.

  • @Truenofan

    Clarify once and for all, rotary engines produce high hp / liter from stock, and they are great in applications like 2000Ibs superlight cars or less. Next. Piston engines are more efficient and capable rev even more if someone wants. Piston engines have more complex design, BUT more reliable, more durable, and also more expensive for purpose. Iron block are not used any more in high powered applications (MotorSport), except NASCAR. 13B = ~235Ibs NA, ~300Ibs Turbo (capable 400hp).

  • @Truenofan

    LS series of engines are best pushrods ever made, specially great LS7, LS9 and LS3 (dry sump version).

    LS1 and LS2 have similar weights about 400+Ibs fully dressed, LS3 a little lighter than LS7 (460-470Ibs).

    LS7 is greatest of all series, since weak LS1 comes stock with all cast internals, capable withstand only 550-600hp before crank bearings brake down.. It's not every V8 good for tuning. That's the reason why 2JZ is more superior than LS1.

  • @2jzgtejza80 omg you are a moron :facepalm:

  • @mastaajbomb

    Redneck, clam down, I'm sorry for you.

  • @2jzgtejza80 ahahah you assume that because i drive a v8 im a redneck? then your an asian nerd with a keyboard since your name is 2jz, you probally dont even have one, STFU and get off my dick

  • @mastaajbomb

    Kid, STFU, I'm from EU and I have completed more years of school, than you have years of your poor life.

    You are far from reality, fanatical American bullshit, open your eyes and realize that you're miserable. I passed, I saw and drove the car that you've never even seen the pictures. I have the opportunity to spend almost 24 hours on the racetrack. I spent more time in such places than you ever will, therefore, cover and keep quiet, it is a shame you do not ask, do not slight.

  • @2jzgtejza80 i didnt read the second part since it was too long but who cares if your from europe? your saying a 2jz is superior to an LS1, you assumed i was a redneck since i defended an ls1 and i made a joke about you being asian since you liked 2jz, you need to grow up, its the internet, when you grow up and actually get a job then start talking shit. When you get a nice car then you can talk shit, but as of now your a little kid behind a keyboard with big dreams, good luck to you, goodbye.

  • @mastaajbomb

    I believed that education system where you living are just a little bit better than in Namibia, but I doubt.

  • @2jzgtejza80 get aids?

  • @2jzgtejza80 you have complete many years of school... honestly thats not agood thing, you must have been held back...

    and if you spend that much time on the race track, over 50 years of school, gained a good enough job to pay for all this. you must be like 300 years old...:S

  • @mageac

    Are u 17 years old ?? I'm almost 24, but I'm almost every week several times in cars that many kid can only dream, reason why race track is 15km behind my home, and I'm from 16 on tracks. I'm not fabulous driver, I'm not someone who have millions, just an car enthusiast, nothin' else, and I'm still driving poor 4 cyls GM crap.

  • @2jzgtejza80 you claim to have completed more years of school then he is old, and spend tons of time at the track.

    so in order for that to be possible you would have to be very very old.

    you simply have not been alive long enough

  • @mageac

    Maybe he has more years of life, but thinks like a child. I believe that you are not like him.

  • @2jzgtejza80 Major hole in your theory, Granted I agree the ls1 nowhere near as nice as the ls7 ,don't discount it just because it has cast internals. People like to get hung up on "stock internals" there are plenty of after market internals available that will do away with any problems the cast internals and stock bearings will handle the ls1 is still a great building block for an engine. Even the 2JZ will suffer in reliability at those power levels. And its one of the best import engines made.

  • @MrAngryRedneck

    Over hundreds of 2JZ engines working very well for thousands of miles even at 600hp. Forged internals never can't be compared to cast made. GAS Motorsport Australia claimed 700hp on stock bearings before failure on 2JZ. many LS1 engines are failed before that level of power. Highest power reached from 2JZ block on aftermarket internals are 2000hp, while LS1 is never passed 1200 even with forged internals. LS1 block is not strong as 2JZ. But LS7 is far better than both.

  • @2jzgtejza80 Why would anyone want to make that kind of power without building a proper bottom end? And I personally know of several LS1 engines that make well over 1200hp some even making over 2000hp. like Steve Petrovski's turbocharged LS1 UTE. As for which block is stronger I cant really say, I've never seen a block failure from either engine. needless to say they are both "strong enough".

  • @2jzgtejza80 And the 2000hp 2JZ you speak of. Is that crank HP? Surely it's not to the wheels is it? If it is I'd like to see it if you could send me a link or something. They are both great motors, But I must agree with you,the LS7 is far better than either the 2JZ or the LS1.

  • @MrAngryRedneck

    Stock block 2JZ can endure huge boost, and power at crank was exactly 2083hp, while on wheels between 1700-1800, but that's not now important. Tuned engines can be powerful, but in stock form 2JZ is great. 2JZ is not perfect, this engine have several problems (heavy, long, tall), but primary and secondary balance the best. Today, there are many manufactures having much better engines than 2JZ, lighter, stronger, powerful.

  • @MrAngryRedneck

    Greatest advantage of LS engines are weight. All aluminum alloy with very strong bottom end (LS7, LS9), forged internals, including 4340 steel billet crank, Ti-4V-6Al alloy valves, springs, pushrods, and even forged camshaft (only LS7/9). Cylinder walls made from cast iron and coated Si-C for better lubrication. LS7 is one of the best ''american made'' engines ever. Dry sump is best thing and coming from stock. Also lightest heads ever made.

  • OMG that sounded fucking beasty

  • Motor banned from use in 24hr of Le Mans after Mazda takes 1st, 6th, and 8th.

    After race teardown indicated that the motor could have run another 24hrs no problem. This = Lulz

    @stefan 100% agree

  • There's a reason why all other companies did not keep on developping the rotary engine. A rotary engine will never have the power of F1 piston engines. The problem: Rotary engines can't take high rpms much about 12,000rpm due to its excentric running. The great thing is that there are no dead spots of moving internal parts. which would gain rpm but as said excentric is not that fine. Driveability and consumption are two more negative lights on a rotary. But the power per cc and rpm is brilliant.

  • a fucking chainsaw

  • <3 Rx7 4 rotor it doesn't have "the" top speed but its one of the (if not the) Fastest accelerating cars in the world

  • Sound like F1 race car to me.If you like cars V8 V10 or anything with four wheel you got to love the sound of f1 race car and that 4rotor do sound like it.Don't know about the 87 dislikes in here what's up with that.

  • @ducatiracing alright i own a 13b too & my dad had an rx3 that did 10.50 in the quarter mile and iht was all motor soo i think i know what im tlkinq bout.

  • im a kid just want to some info.,,

    how the engine shake.,,that looks floting inside the car.,,

    i see it goes shake.,,moves how the chasis or something hold the engine

  • Exactly.!

  • So what that 8000hp v8 would be like a 12L and weigh how much? And be used for how many kinds if racing? And a 4R would be a 2.6L and weigh a tone less and be a truckload more useful.

  • @TopfuelTrooper - if you dont like rotary cars dont fucking talk shit cus yur watching videos of them. why if yuh love v8's so much? so if yuh dnt like them get the fuk out of the videos nd go to yur fuckinq gay ass v8's rednecks.!!!!!

  • people say that rotarys are a bitch to work with but not if you know how to take care of them and how to deal with them. only people that havent had a good ride on a rotary yet.

  • at 0:22 his front tires were spinning backwards.

  • haha i love the way that 2 cylinder rotary engines push as much horsepower as my v8 350. but they sound horrible. v8s cant be beaten in sound. but performance. rotarys are much more efficient

  • @gotenks137690 2 cylinder rotary? i didnt know rotarys had cylinders. lol

    *id say subarus EJ25 comes atleast very close to beating the V8's sound.

    not knocking the V8 in any way... i love american muscle cars but you cant legitimately deny that the growl of a STi engine is awesome... especially for a 4 cyl..

  • @dwnrety1 i dont know bout rotarys. thats obvious so dont diss bra. lol. but no i love v8 sounds and i love 4 banger sounds. its just the rotary doesnt even sound like a 4. sounds more like a 2 stroke dirtbike engine. in all reality though. id rather have the six outa the supra than any engine out there

  • @gotenks137690 the rotory does sound pretty much like crap.. lol

    **the 2jz is *atleast one of* the greatest engines out there..

  • @dwnrety1 gotta agree with you on that.

  • @gotenks137690 efficient in terms of power produced with such a tiny size yes, but wankels have bad gas mileage

  • was that supercharged cuz i saw a belt srry if im wrong im nota car genius

  • The engine note reminds me of my last dentist visit o.o;;

  • Sounds like an electric leaf blower from hell when revving

  • wait.. so who made the engine again?? lolz

  • what is up with the merc taillights

  • OMG!!!! THATS THE SICKEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD!!!!!!!! I WANT ONEEE!! LOL

  • Can anybody tell me what that red metal bar on top of the engine does? I'm new to cars

  • @GenuineDRALIEN its a strut brace, helps to stop the body flexing

  • @GenuineDRALIEN if a car crashes so it wont damage the engine..

  • video sucked!

  • I don't understand what it is about RX-7's. People just never get them right.

    Either they keep the original, beautiful bodywork (maybe with some slight modifications) and rip out the rotary and throw in some stupid V8, or they leave a rotary engine of some sort in there and fuck up the body.

    Why can't someone get an RX-7, let it look like an RX-7 and keep some kind of rotary under the hood?

  • they used two 1.2 liter 12a rotary engines not 13b's it was in DSPORT recently

  • @inellrangel01 homo much?

  • I hada 4 rotor Rx7, it was fucking epic :D! I managed 600bhp and the power was lineer and virtually lag free.

  • @inellrangel01 well arent you special

  • How do you cool four rotors?

  • Nice if you want your car to sound like a cam'd leaf blower

  • @down4ce thats what makes it awesome

  • I bet that engine gets hot as SHIT! BAM

  • I rly liked ur vids and was wondering if u could check out my vids. My vids aren't as good as urs but I think they're pretty good. If u rly like my vids u can always sub and there will be more. Thanks.

  • holy shit! its a not car, its a beast!

  • thats one pissed off chainsaw

  • that is one fugly car from the back

  • Whoever this numbnuts talking about "efficiency" by explaining fuel consumption is a moron. How is efficiency directly related to fuel consumption? Efficiency can be anything and not just fuel. Also for those people who argue that a piston is better than a rotary is a super numbnut. Seriously? The fact that a LeMans rotary race car won so many times is more than enough proof that it is as reliable as any piston type car.

  • Amazing! If "Felix Wankel" could see this....

  • Dumb arguement forreal.!.a 13b could take any v8 with just any little improvements (: and you cant lie about it because its true.

  • @ricardoracing2 ive seen v8's run in the low 6's for 1/4 mile times... id love to see a rotary engine do that... even though it will never happen, unless u put the motor in a 1,000 lb car, but one thing is for sure, no motor sounds as sick as a rotary, sounds like a pissed off ww2 fighter jet

  • @akapanky whats a V8 how many liter? whats a rotary? how many liters? you just like v8's better and im fine with that but i like rotarys better. So yeah keep arguing how much you want with me about v8 and rotarys. Im not saying they are the best engines in the world but they're good. the only piston engines i like are rb26/25 2jz nd a couple other but not that much v8's. i just dont enjoy the sound i dont know why.!

  • @ricardoracing2 You sound like a typical v8 hatin ricer. mod for mod bigger displacment motor will win. period.

  • @Flessner71 You obviously have no clue what your talking about.....

    Please go do a little more engineering research before making such comments.

    And this 2.6L 4rotor, would leave your v8 Nova in the dust son. You can take that to the bank.

  • @stichy420 no doubt the rotary in the vid would take my nova. i only have a 1500 dollar 383 in her that goes mid 12's. let me put the money in my car that he did in that 4 rotor and ill be in the 10's and my car will still last 200,000 miles. Rotarys should be used for R/C cars, only logical place for them.

  • @Flessner71 Your missing the point. A rotary is twice as efficient. On a piston engine the crankshaft has to spin 2 times for 1 power stroke. In a rotary there is a power stroke every revolution.

    And I'm sorry but if we both started with basic engines (A Stock 383 (6.2L?) vs stock 4rotor 2.6L) you would never catch up.

    Lets say your car is a 6.2L and it has 450 hp (guessing) it produces 72.58hp per liter

    A 1.3L rotary makes 232hp producing 178.46hp per liter.

    Bigger doesn't mean shit.

    Get it?

  • @stichy420 First off a rotary will never be as efficient as a 4 stroke piston. and wow you cant compare hp per liter on a virtually 1 stroke rotary to a 4 stroke piston. thats like comparing hp to liter on 2 stroke to 4 stroke, no shit its ganna make more power per liter.

  • @Flessner71 350cc 4 stroke warrior (18hp) vs 350cc 2 stroke banshee (~43hp) .... both engines are .35 liters and some how one has more hp. i wonder how :P

  • @stichy420 My engine IS a basic 383, it has stock GM production iron vortec heads and a mild flat tappet cam. i make all my 400+ hp and 450ftlbs below 5500 rpm. Even with a lazy cam say 205 @50 duration i would be close to 400hp but more torque and i would still be in the 12's. I also get 17mpg crusing at 1500rpm at 70mph. so i i make shit tons more torque.........i get better gas mileage( in a muscle car hahaha)............and im faster cause no stock rx7 runs 12s.........more like 14's.

  • @Flessner71 Your changing the topic.... YOU stated bigger is always better. If this would be true there would be no reason A 6.2L v8 couldn't make 1,106.46hp and be driveable on a street daily. And I'm sorry but a Rotary is a 4-STROKE motor, It has all four: INTAKE/COMPRESSION/POWER/EXHAU­ST. I can't help it if the design is more efficient than a piston engine.

    And when did we start talking about Rx-7's? We are talking about 4rotor 2.6L vs 383 6.2L "Bigger is Better". Remember?

  • @stichy420 ok but a rotary dosent have 4 strokes to every power stroke, it has a power stroke every stroke. If it was a true 4 stroke it wouldnt be making the power it is. Thats the only reason rotarys make so much power is because they have a power stroke everystroke. and stop saying rotaries are more efficient lol your making me laugh lol rotaries have terrible efficeincy. you said i would never catch up to a rotary and what other car is a rotary in, other than a rx7.

  • @Flessner71 Ok one more time...

    I'm sure you know the difference between SOHC and DOHC right?

    It's ALWAYS DOHC > SOHC (Same engine)right? Why? Design. A DOHC will allow more air,fuel/exhaust to enter/exit the engine more efficiently. Because of the DESIGN of a rotary it allows it to have a power stroke every revolution per rotor. It doesn't matter when the other "3 STROKES" are happening, were talking about the power stroke (what makes you go). --------(gotta hate typing limit...)

  • @stichy420 dohc isnt nessecerialy better than sohc. assuming both have 4 valves with same head flow, same cam lift/ duration, both motors will make the same power because the valves are getting opened the same and closing the same. Only way a dual cam makes more power over the single cam is if the single cam has only 2 valves per cylinder. LISTEN UP- A true 4 stroke makes a power stroke every 4 turns of the crank. a rotary makes a power stroke EVERY stroke.

  • @Flessner71 A 4 stroke engine makes power once every 2 turns of the crank.

  • @MyOpinionMatterss i know. 1 whole turn equals 2 strokes

  • @Flessner71 Cars that came with a rotary powered engine:

    Mazda:R100,Cosmo - versions - 2 rotor, 3 rotor (a 4 rotor was made but only for experimenting),Rx-2,Rx-3,Rx-4,

    Rx-5,Rx-7,Rx-8,R130,Luce,Rotar­y Powered Truck,Road Pacer,767,787B

    Chevy made a corvette with one a long time ago, I think in the 70's.... never made it to production though.

  • @stichy420 Wow dude that comment was to guy talkin about how he would take supra and civic motors over v8s. Never was it a piston makes more than rotary power cube for cube. But yes bigger is always better, let me ask you this. which one makes more power 3 rotor vs 4 rotor.....4 rotor because it has more DISPLACMENT. Like i said you cant compare power per liter between engines that have different types of power strokes because one is clearly ganna have the advantage in that test.

  • @Flessner71 Please, Lets never talk about civics, there econo-shitboxes, some are fast, 98% are not, either way all you can do is laugh at it. I honestly think I would take the supra.... Don't underestimate the 3.0 I-6 DOHC Turbo, she's mean, durable and likes modifications. Stock vs stock, I wouldn't put my money on the supra in a drag race though lol. Low-end torque is fun to have when you got a v-8.

  • @stichy420 agreed lol

  • @stichy420 and  you show me a n/a rotary with only 1500 bucks in mods that can run low 12's like my 383 and i will shut my mouth. period.

  • @Flessner71 I really do not believe anyone with a bank account large enough to get a 4-rotor is only going to put $1,500 in modifications on it. lol

    I still can't understand why you always say "N/A" on that last part. Rx-7's (the car you mentioned) all come turbo from the factory... But any who, I'm sure a stock n/a 4-rotor (if there is such a thing) would give you a good run down the track.

  • @stichy420 i say n/a because a turbo car vs n/a car is pointless. you might as well say "wanna race my t-66" because thats all that is making the car fast. take the turbo off and it shows the true power of the car, or lack there of. and where i was getting at is it takes alot more money to get a rotary to go fast.

  • @Flessner71 Bulshit change 2 open intake and free flowing exhaust, that dnt cost fuk all then feel the difference.

  • @stichy420 and all it takes is 2,000 dollar AFR heads, 1500 bucks worth of roller cam and valvetrain and i have 600hp n/a all under 7000 rpm. can you make 600hp n/a on a rotary with 3500 bucks?

  • @Flessner71 It could (4rotor)with 3500, but it would be Turbo/Ignition/Exhaust/ECU. Rotaries do not have "heads / cams / valve train" another reason why they are so efficient.

    N/A vs Turbo doesn't mean anything. It's still hp per liter VS hp per liter.

    And even at 6.2L making 600hp thats only 96.77hp per liter.

    So if I used the money instead to make a 6rotor engine (and yes it is possible) it would only be a 3.9L engine. You would have No Chance.

    One More Time...

    Bigger is not always better.

  • @stichy420 you act like hp per liter is the ultimate scale in performace. Its just a measurment and means nothing. And i would like to see you make a 6 rotor modded out with 6-700 hp for 3500 bucks, thats just not ganna happen. wow you just dont get my point. hp per liter cant be compared between engines with different powerstroke timing. The engine with more power stroke per revolution is always ganna make more power per liter

  • @stichy420 Bigger is ALWAYS better. you just proved my point by sayin a 6 rotor is better than a 4 rotor. Reason being is it has MORE displacement. A 383 makes more power than a 350 because it has MORE displacement. Im just saying you cant compare hp/liter between rotaries and piston engines because the power stroke occurs more often per revolution in a rotary than piston engine giving it a real advantage in th " HP PER LITER" challenge.

  • @ricardoracing2 with the right set of gears you are definetly right. the only hold back of the rotary engine versus a v8 or any cylinder engine for that matter is the fact that they have a really hard time making raw torque. 

  • @ricardoracing2 rotary's are a bitch to work on and they also need maintenance very often and they sound like shit...

  • @ricardoracing2 LOL you are a faggot import ricer to believe that. Put any weak, frail, jappo motor against a topfuel V8 " with 8000 hp then lts see if this POS 13b sewing machine motor take it. its lucky to make 1 run then blow up.

  • @ricardoracing2 That is,if you change the apex seals with aftermarket ones and do some more major mods,then yes.Other than that,i am sorry but no,as the V8 engine's torque is not remotely comparable with the rotary engine.And no i am not trying to start an argument here or to be a meathead.

  • @ricardoracing2 watch?v=esLFG-djEw8&feature=re­lated yea....no..

  • @ricardoracing2 you dont know what your talking about because the 13b has been built since the early 70's and nothing up until the series 4/5 13B has a chance. I myself own a 13B-AP out of a mazda Rx-4 and that pulls 120hp at the wheels. with a few simple mods you would make 150hp, after that you would have to spend a heap of cash to get anything more.

  • @ricardoracing2 It would need forced induction, and that's not a little improvement :P and that's true

  • @CoolbreezeX82X ok fine increase compression ratio to about 13:1 and let the car rev to about 12,000rpm carburate it and make it tri rotor. whats that about 400 some odd hp? :P

  • @ricardoracing2

    then y are they not used in drag racing?

  • Could this video be any less informative?

  • @Theriomalstrom

    Probably not.
