@Z28Racer Ignorance is bliss. A rotary might not appeal to everyone, but the amount of power they put out for such a small displacement shocks most people. The latest iteration of the rotary used by Mazda in the RX-8 put out near 250hp with a displacement of just 1.3L without any forced induction. Not to shabby ;). Turbo one and you have a quick little car -- and RX-8's handle like a dream. I'd never own one because they require more attention than normal LOL, but they are powerful as feck.
@Z28Racer lol, typical v8 fanboy, let me guess you still drive your dads 3800lbs car with the gas guzzling 6.0 v8 that puts out a mere 290bhp... while i zip on by in my 1.3l 3029lbs economy car that puts out 232bhp..... hmm if you do the math at that power/weight that's a win buddy.. even if you add in the mere 129lbft. trq #'s off the line.
@dunhillsupramk3 Actually the rotary engine was first designed by a German who wanted to use it as a supercharger, but after finding out it didn't work so well he noticed it would make a great little engine because of the few moving parts. His name was Felix Wankel and he invented it in the 40's.
@Legend4444 Actually, many modern airplanes use the Wankle rotary engine... Although, I have seen a radial engine (a section of one anyway) used on a motorcycle called the Hellcat.
you dont buy rotary engines for torque. silly argument. rotaries kick ass nomatter wich way you look at it. drive one once and you will be hooked for life ;) i used to be a camaro guy then i drove a rx7. changed my outlook on imports all together. owned my fair share of 4cyls since then too, and all i can say is nothing compares to rotaries. hell what better then a airplane motor in a car right?
@puchomoreno There are two types of rotary engine. There's the Wankel rotary, which is what's in this video. Then there's the old piston rotary engines from world war 1. There's also radial engines, which look like piston rotaries.
@Legend4444 You are wrong, wankel rotary engines have been used in light aircraft for over 2 decades now, go educate yourself before you try and school people because its YOU that is confused between the two types of enginges referred to as "rotary", dick.
@Legend4444 there is a rotary and a radial in a plane, the radial has its cylinders pointing outward from the crank the rotary is exactly the same, apart from the block spins, these are wankles if we want to get technical
@CalebHoernschemeyer It helps airflow to the radiator more than anything, because as you can see with the first car, the intercooler isn't blocking the radiator from airflow. So now all he needs to do is allow for correct airflow to the radiator and intercooler by making a type of paneling.
nice rx7,the yellow sounds like a street port,the red sounds bridge,with my experence a street port 20b makes the same hp as a bridge port 20b,and the life spand is way shorter with the bridge expecially if you cut the water housings seals.and the torque is lower with the bridge,so its better street port. but great job.any videos on the dyno with the two cars.
@pinkpanthercow huh???? so how does enlarging the air flow to that of almost double a streetport some how creates the same power??...that makes no sense....and on top of that he said semi peripheral ported which is the larges port job you can do
@LivingtheRotaryLife my friend it makes a diffrience with a 13b,the 20b has a lot of torque,and when you go bridge or peri port it low down the torque,and its harder to tune the 20b that way,and you have street port 20b making the same power as bridge ,can you answer why,or you want proof.the 20b is an amazing engine,torque it has the 13b had no torque.
@pinkpanthercow thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard, regardless of torque loss in following the volumetric flow rates the ability to push a greater flow of air in and out will increase power and at a faster rate...and quite frankly the proof is that if a street port made just as much power as a larger port job with the same volume rate, then mazda would not be P-porting their engines in their fully spec'ed race cars in every race class they enter would they? i didnt think so
@LivingtheRotaryLife my friend i said the 20b has a lot of torque,the ultimate power is peripheral port,all the power is on top,and no low down power,thats why you have to rev the pp hard,because it takes away the low down power in the 20b it takes away most of the torque,and thats why the 20b is such an amazing motor,the diffrience between the 13b and the 20b is that you dont have to stress out the 20b as much as the 13b,why is that my friend,and can you please tell me the cc of a 13b and a 20b
@pinkpanthercow 1308cc's for the 13b and 1962cc's for the 20b,and of course its all power on top, every rotary is all power on top if we wanted power down low we woulda got a v8, they dont rev up to 9k for nothing,and of course it will be easier to make power from a 20b despite what rotaries can do theres no replacement for displacement, adding an extra 654cc's will always make things easier, but regardless and i cant stress this enough A BRIDGE 20B WILL MAKE MORE POWER THEN A STREET PORT 20B
@DJCocoPuffs hes actually refering to how fujita engineering used to make their 4 rotors before they started using full length eccentric shafts, theres a few videos on youtube
@DjLeon95Antiracist how many comments say 20b. I believe the first reaction people get when seeing this vid is, why would he put 6 rotors when there are only 3 in both cars when you could just put 2 rx7's whith 20b engines lol. but i guess putting 6 rotors sounds better.
aawww what a miss leading title i thought it was gonna be an engine with 6 rotors, though my guess i,s since only a 4 rotor exist there would be problem with making it or how it runs works.
@SorsanSuuriAfro Agree, but it depends what you are going to. Rotories are excellent track queens because of the low torque. It makes it easy to round corners going full throttle while not drifting. Of course, this also means drifting is easy with more hp than torque =). Just good control all round.
@iverson25allen Its small and compact with a higher hp/L than other engines and weigh less. That's why Mazda's rotaries got banned form Lemans after they won. Would be cool to see Mazda's improvements in rotaries duking it out against the diesels in Lemans.
@iverson25allen are you being sarcastic? Rotaries don't have much torque, but I think the turbo ones do. the 20b engine has 300 hp and 300 ins/ft torque.
@carmodifire well the turbo is what gives it much more torque if you ever rode in a twin turbo its more of a jerk and throw your head back into the seat when the first one hits and when the second one engages its like woo haha...
@Drift7King07 Im pretty sure rotors lack torque, this is not meant to be offensive, and that is why turbos are more popular on rotors even though they are more dangerous for your engine than superchargers. Look up stock rx-8 stats, like 232hp and 150 torque or something at the flywheel.
@LiveWire8241 26B has 500ft/lbs tq with about 700hp. Naturally aspirated and only 2.6L displacement. Not only that but it can eaily spin above 10K with high RPM like that you dont even need torque you can take advantage of gearing.
@JD0x0 This is true and I argue with none of it, but most rotory owners do not own a 26B, heck most stick with the original 13B. My point is most people hate of rotories b/c of the lack of torque. The 232 hp for a stock rx-8 is actually pretty decent considering it is so lightweight, it is just the fact that rotories have more hp than torque with no forced induction, always, period. Dont get me wrong, im not saying every rotory engine lacks in torque, not at all, easy fix, just gotta pay.
@LiveWire8241 theyre not too bad on torque if you think about it. My 1.8 makes about 130hp and 100ft/lbs torque. Thats about the same as a n/a 1.3 rotary from the 80's. The renesis which is pretty much an updated 13b gets around 240hp, 150lbs/torque. Which destroys my 1.8. I understand that a rotary doesnt have much torque compared to a big stroker V8 but for the extremely small size of the rotor they get lots of torque. Increasing the stroke will make rotories torquier and more reliable.
@JD0x0 Nono, again, I agree with everything you just said, for such a small engine it does amazing things. Im glad im finally talking to someone who knows something about rotories, its quite relieving actually. As for the increased "stroke", from what I understand to be the height the rotor travels, I believe that is what they are doing with the new rx7/rx9 16X engine. They made the housing taller and thinner (from the side view) and I believe this is increasing torque.
haha, this is my pops friend!
