it’s a machine not a person, but I’m sure it’s a waste of time telling that to the sex robot generation

I could be wrong but I think in japanese culture and also in other cultures, there's the belief that inside the machine lies the ghost of its creator. (Ghost in the shell comes to mind). Each machine carries a part of its creator. Something that maybe can explain the view they have in Japan about robots contrary to western cultures where machines are terrifying forces.

So, mine is nicknamed by a close friend, Vampire, vrikolakas in greek because it just won't die.

Nothing if you're waiting for the 9.

450 horsepower and not in a 2 rotor. A 1.6 is too much work. ECU, bigger injectors. it's not that simple. It's how you can trample the middle eccentric shaft. I'm so funny.. hey you had an RX ate? You have a sepen? That's your question? That's funny!!!!! That's all the 5.0 did. ECU bigger injectors and finally a better metal. I would pay for a better ECU and bigger injectors even today at a dealer's price. But I'm 80% sure the car is going to come out in a 3 rotor turbocharged. So from their if there's any modification.....change the turbo and prop up the ecu. If it's the way I write it..... To some level indy car sound and feel is achieved. I know the four rotor is most definitely at the indy level. The rx9 with 80% probability it comes out in 2023... Winter of 22 into spring of 23. About next year.

I'm confused, isn’t this thread about the name for your car?
