Minagera Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 http://i33.tinypic.com/2rcbxc8.jpg WT... How did a person manage that? Rotaries are beautiful, just misunderstood. Like me :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcrasta Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Is that a photoshop because that 'shouldn't be possible' since there are no 'valves' in a rotary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minagera Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 did you know there was a rotor vet? Yup trial 4 rotor. GM put it down saying it would be too costly and nobody would buy it... RX-7 FTW. Did you know the 3rd gen rx-7s were supposed to come with the 20b, 3 rotor, but it would have had more HP than the Cobra, so ford said 2 rotor!

jszucs Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 I alwyas loved playing with my spiralgraph. God those things amazed me when I was young. I think it was actuly my mothers or uncles when they were a kid. The thing even had pins in it so you could pin the geared rings to the cardboard. Imagin the law suits if you put pins in a kids toy today. sorry :thread20jacked8wq: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael knight Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Speaking from experience, Rotaries are word! It is so easy to get 300hp out of a turbo rotary. The only wierd thing is the fact that it's only a 1.3liter motor. Oh, and also the fact they having spinning triangles and no valvetrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j-hanson Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 this is why i have lots of respect for those who know the rotary art... seriously can any other motor sound so dang wicked!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo G54B Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I really like the FC's :aj: Oh and I found this vid of a rotary. Is there supposed to be fire coming out of the exhaust side like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sully Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) did you know there was a rotor vet? I heard about it on 101 cars you must drive.... something like a 8 rotor 600hp mid engine beast with a whoppin 4mpgs in the 70's before the oil embargo Edited October 11, 2008 by Sully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) we're going through the rotary experience right now... very interesting and cool. http://www.freewebs.com/sullysspeedshop/rx7progresslog.htm Edited October 11, 2008 by Sully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sully Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 the thing i dont like about them is that they sound like a wet fart. LOL!!! I'll take video tonight. The 12a with a Edelbrock spreadbore carb sounds exactly like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My FD dynoed at 277 rwhp @ ONLY 10 psi of boost. :hmm3grin2orange: It could easily have been over 300hp at maybe 12-13 psi of boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
