somebody tell me how I can get my hands on a 4-rotor 20b engine. I learned that if you want a strong n/a car...you gotta go bigger. For me the 1.3 isn't big enough.

20B is a 3 rotor . 4 Rotors are generally purpose built drag motors .

How much money do you want to spend ?

It isn't enough for you? Go buy a ZR1 or a Viper or a GT3 or a GT-R, you're obviously here for the wrong reason.

Check out the Internet. It's a plethora of information.

26B is a four rotor like this that was in the Mazda 787B

Yup, a plethora.

Why settle for a 20B?

26B FTMFW!!!.....variable length intake tracts!....dry sump!

We have a saying in the Punjab - "Go large, or do not leave the house, bygolly!"

....and please come again!

I have a '69 camaro with a 468ci rat motor. My dad has a '67 camaro with a 505 rat. My friend has a viper twin turbo...extremely fast, but incredibly awesome. I've only been a passenger in it. I had a turbo supra. I was looking into getting a new car and I settled on an rx8 because I was fascinated at the 80ci motor that produced 230hp. I've raced a few people and they ask what motor do I have and I always say a 1.3liter. Then they watch my rear bumper and freak out. I've done some research, but obviously not enough to know a 4 rotor is a 26b and a 3 rotor is a 20b. I still have a lot to do. someone told me about bolting 2 engines together. I think the price I might spend on a turbo kit and do it right, I could possibly go bigger on the motor and still stay n/a. Some people like my father and hardcore muscle owners think power adders is cheating so I want to stay n/a and go as far as I possibly can. I just want some ideas and opinions on direction. I could just spend the money on an insane supercharger for the camaro and be insane with that but I like to take the unexpected and dominate. That's why it's so much fun to be different.

Call Mazsport.

They can do the swap for you on a 20B for I think $15,000+

Oh yeah, it will take about a year or 2 to complete.

As far as a 26B the only company I know that builds them are in new zealand.

The infamous 26B NA rotory.

its a simpler route to just add a proper turbo system. first finding a company to build a 26b and install it with all of the proper additions to support the motor will be very very expensive. there would have to be a large amount of custom work done. if you have the cash by all means do it.

It's too much work man...Either turbo the 8 or dont do it at all. The 8 was made for the circuit track..not the drag strip.

What is with everyone wanting the 20B these days?

Forgt the rotary!

Drop in a 2JZ-GTE from a Supra Turbo & there ya go.

It won't cost any more than the custom 3/4 rotor & you'll have the added benefit of having an engine that won't blow up easily.

i'd like a 20b 4 rotor. 0.5 liter displacement per rotor? haha

most people think bigger is better but in this case its not,,,we did our 7s 20b and we are in it for close to 40k to do it right..

20B is doable but it requires a lot of time/money/and work.

Turbo is definitely you're biggest bang for your buck. 10K get's you 400hp at the crank with the Renesis motor from Mazsport.

why stop at 4 when you could have 6...

might have some overheating problems to work out.

You can put $20,000 in work under your hood in the 8 and still blow the doors off it in the quarter with a worked over domestic V8. It's not that kind of animal. Then again, you can roll one of those cars to a local auto-x and watch good drivers in stock rx8s beat them by seconds. Then again, anyone who had researched the rotary engine for even 20 minutes would have known a 20b is a 3 rotor.

I really appreciate the insight from most of you, I thank you for the info that I couldn't spend 20 seconds to find. Some people come off slightly negative so I think I'll take my membership somewhere else. I appreciate your time and answers, take care.

you got off very lightly - jeeez if you can't take a little ribbing you made the right choice to leave - bye .

The reason some people came off as negative is that you're talking about a 20B swap, an insanely expensive and complicated undertaking, without being entirely sure exactly what motor it is. Just saying, if you display a little more of the basic knowledge you can glean on your own, people will be much more willing to help.

loling silently...

you got off very lightly

Damn right.

I was ready to watch this dude get his throat ripped out. I'm surprised it didn't happen.

the noobs sure are getting thinner skinned these days

That's not really a bad thing I guess... he even said it himself:

damn, we scared off another one.

I don't think the RX-8 is the car for him...

too many people on the internet nowdays. no time to teach them all... go wikipedia things, thats what its for...

but zo no he is going to take his free membership to another internetz, then come back here with a different screen name and ask about a 32b swap (two 16xs).
