RX-3_13B_Tommo 05-23-2003, 02:41 AM omg, it really does sound like a blender.
neit_jnf 05-23-2003, 08:21 AM If you keep looking through the pages you'll find very interesting things. One I really liked is this one where they are hand assembling a renesis:

I agree, it needs an aftermarket exhaust to make it sound pissed. No fart can exhaust, one that's not too obnoxious.

I thought it was more like the whine of a jet taking off- blenders have a nasty metallic sound.
wakeech 05-23-2003, 11:20 AM just sounds like a high-revving sports car to me... it'd be good with a louder exhaust system, but i think those side exhaust ports and low overlap have "over tamed" the sound... well, for me: it's probably perfect for the intended market (as we see in the above statements).
SA22C 05-23-2003, 11:27 AM Personally, I think that a bridgeport rotary is the best sound I've ever heard, but the new 8 is very clean sounding.
BRAP BRAP BRAP BRAP BRAP!

RacingDynamcs 05-23-2003, 11:47 AM awesome videos! great sounding car!
RotorGeek 05-23-2003, 02:23 PM I love that sound. It has such a race car sound.
Smoker 05-23-2003, 03:21 PM Great find.
I've been looking something like this soundclip forever.
Oh yea, they probably didn't go to the sixth (overdrive) gear because, the engine probably would sound pretty tame and quiet on that gear.

the_best_sarek 06-13-2003, 05:16 AM Wow I really liked that sound. It must be a good feeling to step on the gas :) .
wakeech 06-13-2003, 02:12 PM bonjour Sarek, stop by the Canada Section of the forum :)
rxtreme 06-13-2003, 05:19 PM Can someone please rip the clip and post it so I can save it to my computer. I'm handicapped with dial-up so I have serious difficulties listening to it in "stream" mode.
zoom44 06-13-2003, 05:46 PM done (http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=5422) :D
rxtreme 06-13-2003, 07:07 PM Thanks, Zoom, you're the best!
