@prisonbreak7760 well sort of... it may have two spots that combustion takes place but each rotor combusts 3 times per revolution so i wouldnt really say 2 chambers when it clearly combusts 6 times per revolution...
doesnt matter. if the gear ratios are done right. which on the corvette, they probably are. rpms dont matter. it comes down to drag, power and torque.
would it be a different story if the 7 puts a 20B engine inside ? n the arguement goes on n on . damn it americans r so dumb . i juz taught one juz now . tis is wat i told him . u pay for wat u get damn it ! look at the price of the 7 . it can even beat an overpriced redneck super car ? do some tinking b4 u comment nonsense .
yeah well, guess what? im asian (clearly not a redneck) and i live in australia (not america).. and drive a BMW. so there goes ur theory on stereotypies. Rice burners will never be as good as europian cars such as lambos, ferrari, aston martin, porsche, BMW. i am glad europian/american cars are over priced leaves out all you junkies from having one! i only aksed a question, why do all you rice burner fans have get all so insecure all the time? rice burners are just a bunch of pretentious crap!
@Greyskymorning395 HAHA! Why would we be insecure? our cars cost 1/4 of what those slow euro cars do. My FD would school an M3 on the track or on the drag strip. It would also kill a GTi, or a porche 911.
So there goes your theory, and guess what? My FD only cost 13 grand. And it's got a new engine putting down 350rwhp. xD
oh goodness, more idiots arguing over brands. how original. who the f cares? anyone that's going to argue that one car is better then another is just a close minded jack ass. and who really compares cars that are stock? stock vs stock means nothing. both are badass cars. I have a 75 vette and 93 rx7. also own german and british cars/bikes.with 500+ hp in my 7 there is not many z06's that can even come close to keeping up. But i have a power addiction so it would be the same story if i had a zo6
haha you kidding? u know how rare a decent rx7 is? theres not many of them left. theyve got perfect weight distribution and a rotary engine, perfect for drifting. i see vettes everywhere.... u mod an rx7 right and you can beat any vette. but what if the vettes were modded?? well nobody really mods corvettes cuz they usually dont have the money to do it with how expensive they are.
dude a c5 corvette is like less than 20k. and an rx7 is around the same price. the vette has a better engine. and hell. people take the ls1 out of the c5 and put it into the rx7. so its not really a mazda anymore. just a stupid looking corvette.
well duh a c5 is like 20k. its old and theyre not that good at all. thats why rx7's retain their price over time, because of their rarity. and i wouldnt put a ls1 in an rx7, the twin turbo rotary engine itself is better, it can be revved extremely high with no harmful effects on it. anyways id take an rx7 over a corvette anyday. youd hafta be stupid not to.
people do that due to the fact the rx7 is alot lighter and better looking hehe. Rx7s are one of the sexiest cars out there along with the corvette!!. I like both cars but its kinda sad when people are putting chevy engines in mazda cars, chevy needs to make their own rx7. People put them in second gen rx7s too for a good price but then you only get a drag car because the weight added from V8 doesnt make it near 50.50 anymore
@wsaravia88 An LS1 is similar weight to a 20B with twin turbos. I considered doing a V8 to my FC Convertible considering the rear end is a bit heavier than normal FC's. To be honest I'd be glad to keep my 13b-t and rebuilt it when the seals go but I'm not looking forward to paying over $500 for the 6 OEM apex seals and possibly a blown turbo if it eats a chunk of seal. Rotaries scare people with good reason. It doesn't take much to ruin them. They do go like hell while they're alive though.
lmao why is it just about every car vs car video i see, i also see unpleasant comments shot back and forth by two tools? what do u guys have to prove anyway? no ones going to give u a medal for putting another down.
btw auto tranny is faster on a straight :)
correct me if im wrong, but ive had word from reliable sources.
01z06guy shut the fuck up, do u even own a zo6? if so, take your z06 and I'll take my fd to streets of willow racetrack in california and we will see what or who is better. for now go sit on a manual cars stick shift you homo..
I will be at Firebird Raceway running East Track September 28th and I will be filming. Come get some. And how much money have you had to spend modding that slow car to make it fast enough to compare? How much work? How many times has the engine been torn apart and put back together? Hmmmmmmm?
dont worry about my car, worry about your embarrassment, Cuz I love it when people buy fast cars off the lot and think they are mario andretti. Until some guy comes along that works and mods his own car and takes it to the track and the canyons and spanks wannabe race drivers like you. I invited first you come get me. or make it better Palomar mountain, if your car goes off the side I wont stop...
So what you saying is you agree that your car has to be modded and that the engine has been torn down and rebuilt multiple times before you can compare it to a STOCK Z06. Thanks for agreeing the Z06 is superior.
And I decline your retarded, "I challenge you to a race in my backyard over the internent because I'm pissed you are informing people that the Z06 is superior to the RX7!"
If you really want to race me, I gave you a time and place. Of course your overboosted POS probably couldn't make the trip. How many miles do you get on a rebuild with added boost? 5,000? LOL
I beat a zo6 in my fd. oh and btw, you spend 70000+ for a zo6 or whatever vette. I spend 9000 for an fd, throw 20000 on engine, no make it 15000. 5000 on suspension yeah that 29000. still have money left over to build three more fds and have money left over for the price of 1 vette. yeahhhh, go choke yourself if you compare a vette to an rx7. and dont even bring it to the canyons against an rx7. Also, I like vettes too but the only thing I see them winning in is reliability.
"I spend 9000 for an fd, throw 20000 on engine, no make it 15000. 5000 on suspension "
We all know you're going to be spending that $15,000 on that POS modded rotory over and over and over while the stock vette's LS7 happily runs past 200,000 miles without ever being opened up. That's not even getting into trying to keep that POS legal and passing emissions. Or how completely retarded it is to compare stock cars to ones with $20,000 in mods.
Actually, comparing a modified car with a stock car is fine if the price is the same in the end. Pay 25K for a Z06...or 10K for an RX7 and 15K in mods...and it will be faster. Emmissions aren't a concern for ANYONE that I know...and that includes the LS1 guys like me. Personally I miss my old RX7...more fun to drive by far.
"comparing a modified car with a stock car is fine if the price is the same in the end."
Oh really? That's great. Then you would agree that a $50 Chevy Vega or fox mustang from the junk yard with $10,000 in mods is better than an stock $10,000 RX7, right? After all, it will completely blow the RX7's doors off in any kind of race.
Not really...comparing a Z06 and an RX7 is different because they can actually be FUN to drive. An old fox can be quick on the cheap, but it feels like driving a bar of soap. Actually most Z06's do too....lets face it...they weren't all that fun till the C6's came out.
PS - Fox stangs don't tend to do very well past the quarter...my LS1 has killed many higher whp fox's on the interstate...I'm guessing an RX7 with equal money would too since it's a slippery shape.
"An old fox can be quick on the cheap, but it feels like driving a bar of soap"
So you've driven a fox with $10,000 in track mods? No? Then STFU, because you have no idea what you are talking about. Have you ever even been on a real race track, the kind with turns? How about in a Z06 that you say isn't fun? How about on slick tires?
Yeah...not on slicks though..feels like cheating to me. And yes a fox CAN handle if you REALLY modify the HELL out of the suspension and chassis. Either way I'm not gonna change my mind...they both don't feel nearly as sharp as an RX7...and they never will. Different horses for different courses ya know?
Or not...I'm pretty sure there's no way a Z06 can win in the end....the chassis just IS NOT as good. Also, there's the fact that you can EASILY and cheaply throw a stock LS6 (or even an LS1) in to an RX7 and run 11's. With head/cam you'll be in the 10's...with a car that weighs 400lbs less (and has FAR more to lose than a Z06) and is CHEAPER BY FAR. Also there's the fact that they look nicer when they're passing everyone here at LVMS...even my 440whp LS1 Trans Am.
"the chassis just IS NOT as good...with a car that weighs 400lbs less" Wrong and wrong. Lateral Gs RX7 .97g Z06 1.0g Slalom RX7 69mph Z06 70.6mph Curb wieght RX7 2830 lbs Z06 3115 lbs
Weird...my RX7 weighed 2750...hmm. Also the Z06 is listed on intellichoice as being 3172 lbs. Anyways....you must realize that I'm talking CHASSIS. The stock suspension is a little softer on an RX7 but the main issue is the primitive tires they tested back in 93...lol. Comparing sports car tires from back then to the ones they have now is pointless. The Z06 used a MUCH softer compound. Try looking up the Spirit A Type R from 2002 instead of the RX7's we got from 93-95. Should be different
"Z06 is listed on intellichoice as being 3172 lbs"
No it's not. Go back to your obscure "intellichoice" website, click on 2002 Z06, pick specifications, and read the curb weight; 3115 lbs, just like I said.
"I'm pretty sure there's no way a Z06 can win in the end"
That is a hilarious comment. No way the Z06 can win against an RX7? How about stock to stock? How about race car to race car? RX7s are incapable of competing with the vette in any race series. They are always regulated to a lower level with cars they can compete with. The ONLY way and RX7 can compete with the Z06 is when it has MORE MODS. That's the only way!
Well who cares about stock to stock when an FD costs 9-15K at most and a Z06 averages 25-35K? If I'd had a total investment of 25K in an RX7 you can bet your ASS it would faster in EVERY WAY....just like you said. It all comes down to how much do you want to spend for how much speed? If I want a 12 second car for 25-35K I'd go for a Z06. If I want a 10 second car than sticks at over 1g for the same money...I'd modify something cheap. Also can't argue that rarity adds to the appeal of an FD.
You seem pretty smart. So why can't you understand the concept that comparing the price of a cheap car plus the difference in mods to a STOCK expensive car is a joke? Don't you realize the cheap car plus mods will ALWAYS be faster? Don't you understand that there are drawbacks to the modded cheap car like reliability, drivability, maintainence, comfort, resale value, safety, longevitiy, etc, etc, etc, and that's why we don't all drive around in modded to hell cheap crap?
LOL...I DO see your point on that. I'm just a money practical guy for the most part....Plus I love the lines of the FD. I'm thinking of getting another to replace my T/A and mildly mod it...blow the engine...and get a Hartley H1 V8 (made with two Hayabusa engines) that will be about 200lbs lighter than the 13B and make around 450whp hopefully (naturally aspirated). It will be a SPENDY project...but damn interesting and ONE OF A KIND. Who wouldn't want a V8 spinning to 11,000rpm? lol.
hey dumb ass 01z06guy, I challenged u on my track first. scroll back to previous comments and see u blind fuck. I told u to come to me so I can spank u. And if you are man enough lets go to palomar mountain california. plus I built my engine right, I know my car, you just know a brochure. let it be known to everybody here, If 01z06guy doesnt show to my first invite, hes a pussy. I have nothing bad to say about corvettes, but I love spanking guys who think they know how to drive cuz of a car.
Wow, you clearly can't read so I'll just repost what I already posted.
I decline your retarded, "I challenge you to a race in my backyard over the internent because I'm pissed you are informing people that the Z06 is superior to the RX7."
Get it now retard? Only an f'ing childish loser challenges someone to a race over the interent. Like I care enough about your retarded azz to drive 1000 miles to meet you. Grow a brain, retard. Are you going to tell me you could beat me up now? LOL
you have argued you way through 4 pages about rx-7 vs vettes....and you be honest YOUR AN IDIOT just for comparing them....rotarys are in a league of their own,ooooh and 1 for the books look up the banzai edition rx-7 and look at the specs ;)
Agreed. One below piston power. It's why Mazda has abandoned the engine for all their other cars and why so many RX7 owners swap that POS out of there. And what goes in? LS-x power. Hmmmmmm..... Why do you think that is? You know what's really funny? Mazda's front drive compact Speed3 is FASTER than the rear drive RX8 sports car! LOL! Retarded rotary junk.
yeh i have lack of knowledge when it comes to v8 shit...ill admit that, but you still didnt answer my question, did i say a FUCKING vette was crap in any way???? u dont know shit about rotary...stick to your v8s i didnt try to pull u down in any comment i did and you bite every ones head off....you my friend are a TWAT...pls fuck off and stop spamming my emails with your bullshit, ty
u need to spend alittle more time away from the comp u nerd....lol....maybe anger management for you...mr stress head, i made 1 comment about 1 for the books about the banzai rx-7...the banzai rx-7 with 500bhp u know as well as me that a 3 rotor can go past the 1000+ mark when tuned and for the 4 rotor well that sa diffrent story a tuned n/a block will produce 1000bhp, u like your shit i like my shit works both ways. ooooh well
"u need to spend alittle more time away from the comp u nerd"
I'm at work right now, retard. I don't waist my off time with this like you are right now. And maybe you should watch my videos. Where are your track racing videos?
just running in the engine at the min....engine died of water seal failure then im gonna turn it into a ricer machine with a feed body kit....just the way i want it.
"engine died of water seal failure then im gonna turn it into a ricer machine with a feed body kit"
Thank you for reinforcing the difference between our cars and ourselves. I'm at the track happily laping all day long passing nearly everything with 132,000 miles on my car, while you're at home with a broken engine dreaming of a body kit. Enough said.
Who cares? Is there an engine that can't? You don't really want to try to compare that to the upper power limits of Chevy V8s, do you? Or would you like to compare the drivability and longevity of 1000hp rotarys vs Chevy V8s? Only if you continue your ignorance.
"never watch the top fuel racing its to boring i like the jap car drags."
I never watch them either. The only thing more boring would be slower cars drag racing. That would be what you watch. I watch and enjoy sports car racing. The Corvette owns the RX7 at that too.
i dont think over here cos they isnt many about and i dont think i would stand a chance against alot of the jap cars here either...but yeh if u say its quicker its quicker cant be arsed to argue about cars, u like your american muscle cars i like my jap cars.
I don't think you even know what a muscle car is, much less what I like. You seem to think my Z06 is one, but it clearly is not. So I'll tell you what I like, and what my Z06 is. I like production based sports car track racing and my Z06 is a sports car.
drivabilty of a ls powered rx-7 aint that great to be honest, yeh it has the power but trying to get that power to stick to the road just dont happen, good idea but just dont work.
"drivabilty of a ls powered rx-7 aint that great to be honest"
The ignorance keeps flowing from you to be honest. Aren't you on any RX7 forums? Haven't you read of the hundreds of people who have already done the swap? Don't you know the LS-x is just as light as the turbo rotary and therefor the traction and balance is exactly the same as a stock RX7? Do you have any idea how useful torque is for car control and track racing?
i live in the uk...think they is only about 2 v8 powered rx-7s about and never seen them about, we dont like to do the engine swaps we just tune the rotarys if we want more power and if the engine goes just get it rebuilt, u might think im being ignorent....im not, just being honest from what ive seen on here, v8 rx-7s dont launch that well....just as good as a single turbo rx.
"i prefer the rotary to a v8 its what i like about the rx-7"
Well that's downright sad. The RX7 is a great car with the EXCEPTION of the crappy engine. And that's the reason you like the car. And for drag racing. And installing a body kit. Sad. The car is sweet looking stock and only gets uglier with a body kit. It corners well and is well balanced, but lacks power, and you like it for drag racing. Sad.
"my car has never run on a strip or a track i like to look after what i have worked hard for."
And yet you already told me the engine was broken. What's the point of a car if you think it's too fragile to actually use? That's right, to put ugly body kits on, right?
i said the engine failed of water seal failure and i was running the engine in...still same engine same rotors and housing and is working fine :) i dont think its fragile at all, 1 thing that rotarys like is a good blast in every gear,ive done that. dont tell me how to run my car, i know how to run my car. not be long before your engine blows up the way u drive.
your fucking stupid...my car is running fine...im running the engine in the last 500 miles it has only had 1 rebuild since it was made 15 years ago...money well spent, cheap to rebuild....whats it cost to rebuild a fucktard v8 in the u.s???
So it had already required rebuilding at least once, it got rebuilt, then it failed while barely getting broken in. Wow. What a POS...are you stupid????read that>>>> my car is running fine...im running the engine in the last 500 miles it has only had 1 rebuild since it was made 15 years ago, not 2 rebuilds just 1. stupid idiot.
"not be long before your engine blows up the way u drive"
Wrong. As you know, if it were a POS rotary, it would have had to be rebuilt multiple times already. But it's not. This engine will take track thrashings, daily driving, and long trips pretty much forever in stock form. I'll be at the track again on Sunday and out for another 1000+ mile road trip with it two weeks later. Meanwhile, you POS will still be broke down while you dream of ugly body kits.
u dont know much ABOUT ROTARYS THEN,you problem is that your to bone idol to own anything like an rx-7....rather sit on your skinny ring than do anything good to your black smokey heap of shit.
IMO, you are a waist of the car. Sell it to someone who will use it properly and buy yourself a million hp Supra. It's better for drag racing and can make power much easier. Plus it's still Japanese. A requirement for a drag car for you, for some odd reason.
i know how to drive my car but im not an idiot about it....my fucking car ill do what i want with it, supra are nice cars but like i said....i like rotarys more, sarcastic wanker. seen your vids lol... your the kinda retard that always compares cars...also u car is abit smokey might wanna get that looked at....might go pop and it looks shit seen better door wedges.
"u car is abit smokey might wanna get that looked at....might go pop"
Hey retard, that video was shot a year and a half ago, before it was dyno tuned. It hasn't smoked at all since then and most of what you see in that video is something we have in the desert you have never seen before called dirt. A year and a half of racing, daily driving, and a trip across the country later with no repairs at all, it runs perfect with 132,000 miles on it. Your POS is broke down, remember?
"what would look better in your vette....a ROTARY engine."
Looks are a matter of opinion, so to you, a rotary might LOOK better. But I'm not much into looks, I'm into function. And a rotary would make the car slower, less reliable, less durable, burn through clutches faster, and consume more fuel. It would be a giant downgrade. It's completely obvious the LS-x is entirely superior.
u know fuck all about rotarys from what u have put....all u know is that they need to be rebuilt every 60-100k miles, fuck lsx engines they for fags and big headed twats.
LOL Retarded limeies are hilarious when they get mad! But a little peice of advice. Don't criticize cars that are superior to your own in every way. Like being worth more, lasting much longer, being technically more advanced, and capable of completely humiliating yours in any type of race. It only makes your own car look worse.
technically more advanced...fuck off....your years behind japanese technology..you cant even make a car that will get traction when u tank it down the road....american cars = big engine in a tin can with 4 wheels, years later u get a car that can beat a rotary but engine size much...1308cc/2616cc vs a 7000cc or what ever shit the ls motor is, not much difference eh??? you my friend are a cock. go google search some more stuff so u can find something else to say to me, looking forward to it.
Absolutely by far. Your POS has none of the technological advancements my car does like active handling, dual zone climate control, electrochromatic mirrors, heads up display, tire pressure monitering systems, titanium exhaust, and a hydroformed frame. You're so ignorant, you don't even know engine is in my car.
you car wouldnt touch mine once run in and tuned....end of story now go run of and bug some 1 else and twist and turn bullshit, ive put more money into my car than what ur high milage heap cost to buy when u bought it....have fun pissing some 1 else off. 350hp vette haha zzzzzzz a walk in the park.
I asked him and he said you are definitely a homo. You tried to get with him so he knocked out several of your crooked, yellow teeth and you ran away crying.
My car has a lot more power than that. Thanks for proving your ignorance. By the way, why did you only comment on my oldest video that has no action? What do you have to say about my vidoes that prove my car is faster through corners than a gutted, slick tire, MR2 race car, the ones where I outlap a BPU Supra with more HP than me, and where I stay glued to the tail of a 997 GT3RS?
Now where are your videos? Oh yeah, you don't think your car can handle being driven on a race track. You think it's too fragile for that. Plus, you are probably scared.
LOL, what a JOKE!!! Care to explain how? Let me guess your answer; GTR, right? What makes the GTR advanced? It transaxel/transfercase. Who developed transavel for the GTR? Borg Warner. Where is Borg Warner? USA. OOOOOOPPPPPSSS!!!!! Don't tell your fellow ricers, they won't like that!!!
lol u make me laugh...do me a favour..do a vid of your car vs an ariel atom please then tell me cars jap things are ricers, cant be arsed with you anymore u seem to just go back to comments after you have searched all day and night on google then throw it back in my face?
FYI, Ariel Atom is not Japanese. Just the engine. That's like calling the Lotus Elise Japanese, which of course it's not. You may need to run to Google all the time due to your ignorance, but I don't. I have a couple sites I go to to grab statistics but that's about it. See, I actually know what I'm talking about. If I didn't, I wouldn't be talking about it.
whats up shit-for-brain, still arguing that your z06 is the best car in the world. do me a favor and shut the fuck up already, I didn't forget about you. do u even work on your own car? probably not. do u do your own suspension and engine adjustments, probably not. U talk a lot of shit here. bring your wanabe racer ass over here so I can beat u on the canyons. my old 1994 rx7 vs your new z06 corvette. look up palomar mountain here on youtube, see if u can handle it. pussy.....
Hey look, it's the internet tough guy who tells people to come street race him but is too pussy to make a trip to race himself! You have a lot of questions and I will be happy to answer them.
"still arguing that your z06 is the best car in the world"
No, I have never once siad that or thought that. There are lots of cars better than it. RX-7 is not one of them. Not by a long shot. It's soo slooooooow!!!!
Of course. I built my first engine at age 16, worked as a mechanic in a performance shop until I found a better profession, and I currently rent out a two bay garage with my brothers that use to be a transmission shop just so we can store and work on all our cars. Just got done with a UD pulley, Ron Davis racing radiator, and engine oil cooler install on the Z06 last week. Thanks for asking. :)
I'm not going to go street race you for a number of reasons.
1) I have nothing to prove to you. I already know my car is superior and I'm faster. If you think otherwise, and you want to race me, then come to Phoenix on the track and do it. I'm not hiding.
2) Street racing is for imature fags.
3) When you kill youself trying to keep up with me, I would be charged with murder for your death caused by my felony act. You are soo not worth it.
So, how's January 11 for you? Firebird Raceway Main course. I will be there in advanced group. If you feel the need to demonstrate how slow your car is despite how many times the engine has had to be rebuilt and how much money you have had to dump into it, feel free to show up. I would love to see you there. BTW, even though it's only a could hundred miles from you, you might consider trailering. Your overboosted POS would likely need a new engine just making the trip. :)
"you cant even make a car that will get traction when u tank it down the road"
Really? Then why is that no stock car from Japan before the R35 GTR is capable of beating the Z06, ZR1, several Viper models, or either Saleen S7 in a drag race OR on the track? Even the GTR can't beat the ZR1, Viper ACR, or either S7. Japanese performance cars have NEVER been able to keep up with American and they still can't.
some people seem to forget 1 car in japan u dont much off...im not gonna say what it is look it up, begins with a t and k more home work for u school boy
So how does it feel to know your car is worth less and would get spanked by a car that according to you is an ugly, smoking, heap of sh!t for fags that is about to blow up?
Because your car is a 14 second car stock and mine is a 12 second car stock. You would need MAJOR mods just to keep up if mine were stock, which it's not. You don't have major mods. My car is a LOT faster than yours.
going to stock now...how gay of you. u dont need major mods idiot....mr machanic of the year who thinks he knows everything, stick to your v8s...best way
Oh really? What about this video where the RX7 has "all bolt ons" and can barely inch away from a lowly base C5 with an auto trans? How in the world to you expect to be anywhere near my Z06 without major mods?
bolt on isnt tuning the car fuck nut...having you apexi ecu mapped is having your car tuned, so if he dont have 1 it aint tuned....like it says just bolt ons....NOT TUNING. 2 diffrent things bolt ons and tuning
You're retarded. ecu tuning is ASSUMED with any decent mods on a modern car. It's not going to suddenly make the car over a second faster anyway, dumbazz.
what the fuck does it do then...make the car blow up u idiot.........dumbazz.....correction dumbass forgot u yanks use alot off zzzzzzzzzzz prob cos you always lazzzzzzzzzzzy
I'm glad to hear you don't like it. It would bother me if anyone with the poor taste to ruin an RX7 with an ugly body kit DID like my car. You not liking it is evidence that it's not gaudy, tacky, or ricey.
Really? How do you know that? I know that Mazda's rotary sports car is slower than Mazda's piston powered, front wheel drive, four door compact. I know that's really funny.
*yawn* Oh wow, a 500hp tuner car. Are you soo ignorant that you think there are no Corvette tuner cars that would spank that thing, or is the RX7 soo lame that you have to compare a tuner car to a stock prodution car? Why don't you look up Lingenfelter, Callaway, LG Motorsports, GM Corvette Racing, or the really funny thing is even the bone stock, production ZR1 beats your tuner car in the 1/4 mile. Just admit the Corvette owns the RX7 already.
whats this rx-7 on this video got thats really tunes the car???? intakes,bigger intercooler and exhaust....whooopie lots of more power for the rex, prob about the same amount of power gained as the vette with the intake and exhaust....why u hate rotarys that much??? u might want to learn or go back to school and learn how to talk to people,your attitude stinks.
3. Saying this, "whats this rx-7 on this video got thats really tunes the car???? intakes,bigger intercooler and exhaust" is ignorant because it infers that there are no other "bolt-on" for an RX-7 besides those since the video says it has "all bolt-ons."
4. This, "prob about the same amount of power gained as the vette with the intake and exhaust" is extreme ignorance because anyone with any knowledge at all knows an aftermarket intake an a cat-back makes MAYBE 15hp for a base C5. Plus, if you were not ignorant, you would know that a base, automatic, C5 will easily outrun an RX-7 so if they had the same amount of extra power, it would obviously still easily outrun it. Clearly, you are nothing but ignorAnce. Loser.
stick to what you know about the most...vette, people hate it when they see an rx-7 whoop a vette they gay people like you start all this bullshit....your an idiot can let things go can you.
ok2 time to cool down on the comments . always happen this kind of arguement for comments on car stuffs like this . nobody gives a shit frankly speaking . I own a RX7 n I love corvettes . get the point ? anyway juz want to ask the owner some questions . r u sure the 7 is running stock twins ? coz if wat i saw is wat u say "truthfully" . then im fuckin happy tat 7 can match up to a corvette equally . coz i would have guessed tat the corvette will lead by 1 - 2 car at least . anyway nice vidz
Also, still waiting for you to prove that FC's are known as "Corvette killers" when in fact the fastest ones are slower than the slowest Corvettes of the same era.
did u even watch the video? the rx7 is a highly modified "tuner car" it keeps changing every model including the rx8. the corvette is still the huge piece of shit it was in the 50's 60's 70's 80's 90's all they way until now where its barely getting sold
Really? You think modern Corvettes are the same as the 50's Corvettes? And that RX7s are constantly changing? Well, it's a fact that a modern Corvette will destroy any stock RX7 on the race track, so I guess you would agree that a '50's Corvette would destroy any RX7 on the race track too, since it's the same as new Corvettes, right? How embarrasing for Mazda.
buddy.. yes the new vets are fast and yes they will kill our modoern 7's here... but not the 7's from japan that are stock. cuz her production stoped around 93 for the Fd but production didnt stop over there till 2002 or 2001.. The Fd Spirit R will distroy any stock vet here in america only some spirit R's are here and if you race one of the you'll be blown.
"The Fd Spirit R will distroy any stock vet here in america"
WRONG. It only had 300hp. And it wieghed 2833 lbs and only ran the 1/4 mile in 13.6. My old C5 Z06 is WAY faster in a straight line and would be at LEAST it's equal on the track. C6 Z06 and ZR1 shit on it like it's standing still. You're a classic JDM fag thinking JDM cars are supercars. Get real, dumbass.
if the rx7 was modded to be as fast as the vette in a straight line than that would mean the rx7 would win on an autocross track...my opinion i would rather have an rx7 because it's more rare and cost less than a vette....
if the Z06 was modded to be as light as the RX7 than that would mean the Z06 would shit on the rx7 in any type of race...my opinion i would rather have a Z06 because it's way faster, more reliable, more advanced, more modern, more comfortable, has more room, and burns less gas than an rx7....
only reason why the vette beat it was top end... if this rx7 had a port job would have been different

dude a c5 corvette is like less than 20k. and an rx7 is around the same price. the vette has a better engine. and hell. people take the ls1 out of the c5 and put it into the rx7. so its not really a mazda anymore. just a stupid looking corvette.
3flipmafia 2 years ago
well duh a c5 is like 20k. its old and theyre not that good at all. thats why rx7's retain their price over time, because of their rarity. and i wouldnt put a ls1 in an rx7, the twin turbo rotary engine itself is better, it can be revved extremely high with no harmful effects on it. anyways id take an rx7 over a corvette anyday. youd hafta be stupid not to.
Dart00Z 2 years ago 5
people do that due to the fact the rx7 is alot lighter and better looking hehe. Rx7s are one of the sexiest cars out there along with the corvette!!. I like both cars but its kinda sad when people are putting chevy engines in mazda cars, chevy needs to make their own rx7. People put them in second gen rx7s too for a good price but then you only get a drag car because the weight added from V8 doesnt make it near 50.50 anymore
wsaravia88 2 years ago
@wsaravia88 An LS1 is similar weight to a 20B with twin turbos. I considered doing a V8 to my FC Convertible considering the rear end is a bit heavier than normal FC's. To be honest I'd be glad to keep my 13b-t and rebuilt it when the seals go but I'm not looking forward to paying over $500 for the 6 OEM apex seals and possibly a blown turbo if it eats a chunk of seal. Rotaries scare people with good reason. It doesn't take much to ruin them. They do go like hell while they're alive though.

I will be at Firebird Raceway running East Track September 28th and I will be filming. Come get some. And how much money have you had to spend modding that slow car to make it fast enough to compare? How much work? How many times has the engine been torn apart and put back together? Hmmmmmmm?

dont worry about my car, worry about your embarrassment, Cuz I love it when people buy fast cars off the lot and think they are mario andretti.

So what you saying is you agree that your car has to be modded and that the engine has been torn down and rebuilt multiple times before you can compare it to a STOCK Z06. Thanks for agreeing the Z06 is superior.

01Z06guy 3 years ago
I beat a zo6 in my fd. oh and btw, you spend 70000+ for a zo6 or whatever vette. I spend 9000 for an fd, throw 20000 on engine, no make it 15000. 5000 on suspension yeah that 29000. still have money left over to build three more fds and have money left over for the price of 1 vette. yeahhhh, go choke yourself if you compare a vette to an rx7. and dont even bring it to the canyons against an rx7. Also, I like vettes too but the only thing I see them winning in is reliability.

We all know you're going to be spending that $15,000 on that POS modded rotory over and over and over while the stock vette's LS7 happily runs past 200,000 miles without ever being opened up. That's not even getting into trying to keep that POS legal and passing emissions. Or how completely retarded it is to compare stock cars to ones with $20,000 in mods.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Actually, comparing a modified car with a stock car is fine if the price is the same in the end. Pay 25K for a Z06...or 10K for an RX7 and 15K in mods...and it will be faster. Emmissions aren't a concern for ANYONE that I know...and that includes the LS1 guys like me. Personally I miss my old RX7...more fun to drive by far.
driftslave 3 years ago
"comparing a modified car with a stock car is fine if the price is the same in the end."
Oh really? That's great. Then you would agree that a $50 Chevy Vega or fox mustang from the junk yard with $10,000 in mods is better than an stock $10,000 RX7, right? After all, it will completely blow the RX7's doors off in any kind of race.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Not really...comparing a Z06 and an RX7 is different because they can actually be FUN to drive. An old fox can be quick on the cheap, but it feels like driving a bar of soap. Actually most Z06's do too....lets face it...they weren't all that fun till the C6's came out.
PS - Fox stangs don't tend to do very well past the quarter...my LS1 has killed many higher whp fox's on the interstate...I'm guessing an RX7 with equal money would too since it's a slippery shape.
driftslave 3 years ago
"An old fox can be quick on the cheap, but it feels like driving a bar of soap"
So you've driven a fox with $10,000 in track mods? No? Then STFU, because you have no idea what you are talking about. Have you ever even been on a real race track, the kind with turns? How about in a Z06 that you say isn't fun? How about on slick tires?
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Yeah...not on slicks though..feels like cheating to me. And yes a fox CAN handle if you REALLY modify the HELL out of the suspension and chassis. Either way I'm not gonna change my mind...they both don't feel nearly as sharp as an RX7...and they never will. Different horses for different courses ya know?
driftslave 3 years ago
"Different horses for different courses ya know?"
Sure. Z06 for the race track, RX7 for driftslave's "feel good" time. Got it.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Or not...I'm pretty sure there's no way a Z06 can win in the end....the chassis just IS NOT as good. Also, there's the fact that you can EASILY and cheaply throw a stock LS6 (or even an LS1) in to an RX7 and run 11's. With head/cam you'll be in the 10's...with a car that weighs 400lbs less (and has FAR more to lose than a Z06) and is CHEAPER BY FAR. Also there's the fact that they look nicer when they're passing everyone here at LVMS...even my 440whp LS1 Trans Am.
driftslave 3 years ago
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Weird...my RX7 weighed 2750...hmm. Also the Z06 is listed on intellichoice as being 3172 lbs. Anyways....you must realize that I'm talking CHASSIS. The stock suspension is a little softer on an RX7 but the main issue is the primitive tires they tested back in 93...lol. Comparing sports car tires from back then to the ones they have now is pointless. The Z06 used a MUCH softer compound. Try looking up the Spirit A Type R from 2002 instead of the RX7's we got from 93-95. Should be different
driftslave 3 years ago
"Z06 is listed on intellichoice as being 3172 lbs"
No it's not. Go back to your obscure "intellichoice" website, click on 2002 Z06, pick specifications, and read the curb weight; 3115 lbs, just like I said.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Correct...my bad. Thinking of when I looked up C6 Z06.

driftslave 3 years ago
"I'm pretty sure there's no way a Z06 can win in the end"
That is a hilarious comment. No way the Z06 can win against an RX7? How about stock to stock? How about race car to race car? RX7s are incapable of competing with the vette in any race series. They are always regulated to a lower level with cars they can compete with. The ONLY way and RX7 can compete with the Z06 is when it has MORE MODS. That's the only way!
01Z06guy 3 years ago
Well who cares about stock to stock when an FD costs 9-15K at most and a Z06 averages 25-35K? If I'd had a total investment of 25K in an RX7 you can bet your ASS it would faster in EVERY WAY....just like you said. It all comes down to how much do you want to spend for how much speed? If I want a 12 second car for 25-35K I'd go for a Z06. If I want a 10 second car than sticks at over 1g for the same money...I'd modify something cheap. Also can't argue that rarity adds to the appeal of an FD.
driftslave 3 years ago
You seem pretty smart. So why can't you understand the concept that comparing the price of a cheap car plus the difference in mods to a STOCK expensive car is a joke? Don't you realize the cheap car plus mods will ALWAYS be faster? Don't you understand that there are drawbacks to the modded cheap car like reliability, drivability, maintainence, comfort, resale value, safety, longevitiy, etc, etc, etc, and that's why we don't all drive around in modded to hell cheap crap?
01Z06guy 3 years ago
LOL...I DO see your point on that. I'm just a money practical guy for the most part....Plus I love the lines of the FD. I'm thinking of getting another to replace my T/A and mildly mod it...blow the engine...and get a Hartley H1 V8 (made with two Hayabusa engines) that will be about 200lbs lighter than the 13B and make around 450whp hopefully (naturally aspirated). It will be a SPENDY project...but damn interesting and ONE OF A KIND. Who wouldn't want a V8 spinning to 11,000rpm? lol.

The ignorance keeps flowing from you to be honest. Aren't you on any RX7 forums? Haven't you read of the hundreds of people who have already done the swap? Don't you know the LS-x is just as light as the turbo rotary and therefor the traction and balance is exactly the same as a stock RX7? Do you have any idea how useful torque is for car control and track racing?
01Z06guy 3 years ago
i live in the uk...think they is only about 2 v8 powered rx-7s about and never seen them about, we dont like to do the engine swaps we just tune the rotarys if we want more power and if the engine goes just get it rebuilt, u might think im being ignorent....im not, just being honest from what ive seen on here, v8 rx-7s dont launch that well....just as good as a single turbo rx.

Well that's downright sad. The RX7 is a great car with the EXCEPTION of the crappy engine. And that's the reason you like the car. And for drag racing. And installing a body kit. Sad. The car is sweet looking stock and only gets uglier with a body kit. It corners well and is well balanced, but lacks power, and you like it for drag racing. Sad.

your fucking stupid...my car is running fine...im running the engine in the last 500 miles it has only had 1 rebuild since it was made 15 years ago...money well spent, cheap to rebuild....whats it cost to rebuild a fucktard v8 in the u.s???

"not be long before your engine blows up the way u drive"
Wrong. As you know, if it were a POS rotary, it would have had to be rebuilt multiple times already. But it's not. This engine will take track thrashings, daily driving, and long trips pretty much forever in stock form. I'll be at the track again on Sunday and out for another 1000+ mile road trip with it two weeks later. Meanwhile, you POS will still be broke down while you dream of ugly body kits.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
u dont know much ABOUT ROTARYS THEN,you problem is that your to bone idol to own anything like an rx-7....rather sit on your skinny ring than do anything good to your black smokey heap of shit.
fdd3s 3 years ago
IMO, you are a waist of the car. Sell it to someone who will use it properly and buy yourself a million hp Supra. It's better for drag racing and can make power much easier. Plus it's still Japanese. A requirement for a drag car for you, for some odd reason.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
i know how to drive my car but im not an idiot about it....my fucking car ill do what i want with it, supra are nice cars but like i said....i like rotarys more, sarcastic wanker. seen your vids lol... your the kinda retard that always compares cars...also u car is abit smokey might wanna get that looked at....might go pop and it looks shit seen better door wedges.
fdd3s 3 years ago
"u car is abit smokey might wanna get that looked at....might go pop"
Hey retard, that video was shot a year and a half ago, before it was dyno tuned. It hasn't smoked at all since then and most of what you see in that video is something we have in the desert you have never seen before called dirt. A year and a half of racing, daily driving, and a trip across the country later with no repairs at all, it runs perfect with 132,000 miles on it. Your POS is broke down, remember?
01Z06guy 3 years ago

An oil change is NOT a repair, retard. Are you really that stupid?
01Z06guy 3 years ago
its a part of a service which is a repair if u have to change anything on a car.
fdd3s 3 years ago
"what would look better in your vette....a ROTARY engine."
Looks are a matter of opinion, so to you, a rotary might LOOK better. But I'm not much into looks, I'm into function. And a rotary would make the car slower, less reliable, less durable, burn through clutches faster, and consume more fuel. It would be a giant downgrade. It's completely obvious the LS-x is entirely superior.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
u know fuck all about rotarys from what u have put....all u know is that they need to be rebuilt every 60-100k miles, fuck lsx engines they for fags and big headed twats.
fdd3s 3 years ago
LOL Retarded limeies are hilarious when they get mad! But a little peice of advice. Don't criticize cars that are superior to your own in every way. Like being worth more, lasting much longer, being technically more advanced, and capable of completely humiliating yours in any type of race. It only makes your own car look worse.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
technically more advanced...fuck off....your years behind japanese technology..you cant even make a car that will get traction when u tank it down the road....american cars = big engine in a tin can with 4 wheels, years later u get a car that can beat a rotary but engine size much...1308cc/2616cc vs a 7000cc or what ever shit the ls motor is, not much difference eh??? you my friend are a cock. go google search some more stuff so u can find something else to say to me, looking forward to it.
fdd3s 3 years ago
"technically more advanced"
Absolutely by far. Your POS has none of the technological advancements my car does like active handling, dual zone climate control, electrochromatic mirrors, heads up display, tire pressure monitering systems, titanium exhaust, and a hydroformed frame. You're so ignorant, you don't even know engine is in my car.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
you car wouldnt touch mine once run in and tuned....end of story now go run of and bug some 1 else and twist and turn bullshit, ive put more money into my car than what ur high milage heap cost to buy when u bought it....have fun pissing some 1 else off. 350hp vette haha zzzzzzz a walk in the park.
fdd3s 3 years ago
"ive put more money into my car"
I'm sorry that you wasted you money on a slow car that required a rebuild, gets horrendous gas mileage and is very short lived when built up.

maybe i can afford it...so why not. i wouldnt choose a vette over an rx-7 any day of the year. its just what i like.

"350hp vette"
My car has a lot more power than that. Thanks for proving your ignorance. By the way, why did you only comment on my oldest video that has no action? What do you have to say about my vidoes that prove my car is faster through corners than a gutted, slick tire, MR2 race car, the ones where I outlap a BPU Supra with more HP than me, and where I stay glued to the tail of a 997 GT3RS?
01Z06guy 3 years ago

Why don't you watch the video and find out?

Or watch a Carrera 4S and an STi go down.

Now where are your videos? Oh yeah, you don't think your car can handle being driven on a race track. You think it's too fragile for that. Plus, you are probably scared.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
"your years behind japanese technology"
LOL, what a JOKE!!! Care to explain how? Let me guess your answer; GTR, right? What makes the GTR advanced? It transaxel/transfercase. Who developed transavel for the GTR? Borg Warner. Where is Borg Warner? USA. OOOOOOPPPPPSSS!!!!! Don't tell your fellow ricers, they won't like that!!!
01Z06guy 3 years ago
lol u make me laugh...do me a favour..do a vid of your car vs an ariel atom please then tell me cars jap things are ricers, cant be arsed with you anymore u seem to just go back to comments after you have searched all day and night on google then throw it back in my face?
fdd3s 3 years ago
FYI, Ariel Atom is not Japanese. Just the engine. That's like calling the Lotus Elise Japanese, which of course it's not. You may need to run to Google all the time due to your ignorance, but I don't. I have a couple sites I go to to grab statistics but that's about it. See, I actually know what I'm talking about. If I didn't, I wouldn't be talking about it.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
whats up shit-for-brain, still arguing that your z06 is the best car in the world. do me a favor and shut the fuck up already, I didn't forget about you. do u even work on your own car? probably not. do u do your own suspension and engine adjustments, probably not. U talk a lot of shit here. bring your wanabe racer ass over here so I can beat u on the canyons. my old 1994 rx7 vs your new z06 corvette. look up palomar mountain here on youtube, see if u can handle it. pussy.....

"still arguing that your z06 is the best car in the world"
No, I have never once siad that or thought that. There are lots of cars better than it. RX-7 is not one of them. Not by a long shot. It's soo slooooooow!!!!
01Z06guy 3 years ago

No. The truth is not going to go away just by asking people to stop saying it.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
"do u even work on your own car?"
Of course. I built my first engine at age 16, worked as a mechanic in a performance shop until I found a better profession, and I currently rent out a two bay garage with my brothers that use to be a transmission shop just so we can store and work on all our cars. Just got done with a UD pulley, Ron Davis racing radiator, and engine oil cooler install on the Z06 last week. Thanks for asking. :)
01Z06guy 3 years ago
I'm not going to go street race you for a number of reasons.
1) I have nothing to prove to you. I already know my car is superior and I'm faster. If you think otherwise, and you want to race me, then come to Phoenix on the track and do it. I'm not hiding.
2) Street racing is for imature fags.
3) When you kill youself trying to keep up with me, I would be charged with murder for your death caused by my felony act. You are soo not worth it.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
So, how's January 11 for you? Firebird Raceway Main course. I will be there in advanced group. If you feel the need to demonstrate how slow your car is despite how many times the engine has had to be rebuilt and how much money you have had to dump into it, feel free to show up. I would love to see you there. BTW, even though it's only a could hundred miles from you, you might consider trailering. Your overboosted POS would likely need a new engine just making the trip. :)
01Z06guy 3 years ago
"you cant even make a car that will get traction when u tank it down the road"
Really? Then why is that no stock car from Japan before the R35 GTR is capable of beating the Z06, ZR1, several Viper models, or either Saleen S7 in a drag race OR on the track? Even the GTR can't beat the ZR1, Viper ACR, or either S7. Japanese performance cars have NEVER been able to keep up with American and they still can't.

how you know your car will spank mine????? u seen it???, i know my car is worth less and to honest i wouldnt have a vette as a gift.
fdd3s 3 years ago
"how you know your car will spank mine?"
Because your car is a 14 second car stock and mine is a 12 second car stock. You would need MAJOR mods just to keep up if mine were stock, which it's not. You don't have major mods. My car is a LOT faster than yours.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
going to stock now...how gay of you. u dont need major mods idiot....mr machanic of the year who thinks he knows everything, stick to your v8s...best way

Oh really? What about this video where the RX7 has "all bolt ons" and can barely inch away from a lowly base C5 with an auto trans? How in the world to you expect to be anywhere near my Z06 without major mods?
01Z06guy 3 years ago
bolt on isnt tuning the car fuck nut...having you apexi ecu mapped is having your car tuned, so if he dont have 1 it aint tuned....like it says just bolt ons....NOT TUNING. 2 diffrent things bolt ons and tuning
fdd3s 3 years ago
You're retarded. ecu tuning is ASSUMED with any decent mods on a modern car. It's not going to suddenly make the car over a second faster anyway, dumbazz.

I'm glad to hear you don't like it. It would bother me if anyone with the poor taste to ruin an RX7 with an ugly body kit DID like my car. You not liking it is evidence that it's not gaudy, tacky, or ricey.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
"u dont know shit about rotary"
Really? How do you know that? I know that Mazda's rotary sports car is slower than Mazda's piston powered, front wheel drive, four door compact. I know that's really funny.

you mean the rx-8
fdd3s 3 years ago
"look up the banzai edition rx-7"
*yawn* Oh wow, a 500hp tuner car. Are you soo ignorant that you think there are no Corvette tuner cars that would spank that thing, or is the RX7 soo lame that you have to compare a tuner car to a stock prodution car? Why don't you look up Lingenfelter, Callaway, LG Motorsports, GM Corvette Racing, or the really funny thing is even the bone stock, production ZR1 beats your tuner car in the 1/4 mile. Just admit the Corvette owns the RX7 already.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
whats this rx-7 on this video got thats really tunes the car???? intakes,bigger intercooler and exhaust....whooopie lots of more power for the rex, prob about the same amount of power gained as the vette with the intake and exhaust....why u hate rotarys that much??? u might want to learn or go back to school and learn how to talk to people,your attitude stinks.
fdd3s 3 years ago
3. Saying this, "whats this rx-7 on this video got thats really tunes the car???? intakes,bigger intercooler and exhaust" is ignorant because it infers that there are no other "bolt-on" for an RX-7 besides those since the video says it has "all bolt-ons."
01Z06guy 3 years ago
few more bolt ons than that.
fdd3s 3 years ago
4. This, "prob about the same amount of power gained as the vette with the intake and exhaust" is extreme ignorance because anyone with any knowledge at all knows an aftermarket intake an a cat-back makes MAYBE 15hp for a base C5. Plus, if you were not ignorant, you would know that a base, automatic, C5 will easily outrun an RX-7 so if they had the same amount of extra power, it would obviously still easily outrun it. Clearly, you are nothing but ignorAnce. Loser.
01Z06guy 3 years ago

did u even watch the video? the rx7 is a highly modified "tuner car" it keeps changing every model including the rx8. the corvette is still the huge piece of shit it was in the 50's 60's 70's 80's 90's all they way until now where its barely getting sold
AllThingsThatAreBad 3 years ago
Really? You think modern Corvettes are the same as the 50's Corvettes? And that RX7s are constantly changing? Well, it's a fact that a modern Corvette will destroy any stock RX7 on the race track, so I guess you would agree that a '50's Corvette would destroy any RX7 on the race track too, since it's the same as new Corvettes, right? How embarrasing for Mazda.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
buddy.. yes the new vets are fast and yes they will kill our modoern 7's here... but not the 7's from japan that are stock. cuz her production stoped around 93 for the Fd but production didnt stop over there till 2002 or 2001..

WRONG. It only had 300hp. And it wieghed 2833 lbs and only ran the 1/4 mile in 13.6. My old C5 Z06 is WAY faster in a straight line and would be at LEAST it's equal on the track. C6 Z06 and ZR1 shit on it like it's standing still. You're a classic JDM fag thinking JDM cars are supercars. Get real, dumbass.
01Z06guy 3 years ago
if the rx7 was modded to be as fast as the vette in a straight line than that would mean the rx7 would win on an autocross track...my opinion i would rather have an rx7 because it's more rare and cost less than a vette....
