Renesis Motor Code?
 

I searched the forums, checked the FAQs, but still can't find it.

What is the CORRECT motor code on the RX-8s? I know the FC was a 13B-RE, the FD was a 13B-REW... Is it simply Renesis? Or is it still a 13x-xxx?

Thanks for any help!

13B MSP (Standard and High Power)

Thanks Bud.

Yup, and the MSP comes from Multi-Side Port.

Very interesting of what MSP is actually stand for. I actually think Multi -side port is a better answer than the real answer.

DO YOU ACTUALLY get this from somewhere or you MADE IT UP?? :D

I happen to know the answer from a Japanese magazine (the REV magazine).

I am not sturing any arguments but...

THE REAL ANSWER (which is very stupid) - Mazda Special Project

One more:

RENESIS is coined from Rotary Engine's GENESIS

And it describes Rotary Engine for the New-generation with Exhaust ports on the Side housings and Intake prots on the Side housings.

ok i'm dumb but what is SE3P??? please no flaming.

i think its the chassis code

It is correct, Konig, SE3P is the chassis code.

Why does the door panel say FE then - YIKES not another SE vs. FE thread....

Leave it to Nemesis to start up trouble.:D

:D

Here it the most recent one...

Blame yourself ... you started it

Lets settle this once and for all.

Someone start a poll. :)

ok at least i'm not as crazy as i thought!

The first running prototype side port engine was in the RX-01 concept car. Back then the engine wasn't called the Renesis. It was called the MSP-RE. Multi Side Port Rotary Engine. The Mazda Special Project designation probably came later.
