wow!
 
that is a 3 rotor 20B. Beautiful! Where is the car? I am guessing the states looking at the configs under the hood. Outstanding!

Hisakata 05-15-2004 11:25 PM

oops
 
just realized racing beat! lol.

Jonjieracer 05-15-2004 11:27 PM

thanks for the reply, i myself was amazed on its car engine set-up. This pic was taken from racing beat photo gallery, so I'm assuming the car is in California. :cool:

Looks like Acosta's 20B setup.

This car was photographed at our Racing Beat open house the day after the 2003 SevenStock event. At the time, the car was still undergoing construction and was not completed. This car was indeed owned by Acosta Motorsports.

More recent pictures have the Mazdaspeed body kit (or one like it) with an intake hole in the front bumper. Its too bad, I was hoping there was a second such beast in the making!

BaronVonBigmeat 05-22-2004 11:59 AM

Did they have to swap out the transmission too? And was it ever street legal?

HiTMaNN 05-23-2004 04:29 AM

Spazm 05-24-2004 01:13 AM

It says 800hp to the wheels....crazy!

Anyone want to do a timeshare on a car :D

IZoomZoomI 05-24-2004 02:49 AM

say if one was just to get the 20b swap how much horses are we looking at?

oahudvr 05-24-2004 09:54 AM

Just for an FYI I just went to the SEMA international show in Atlantic City and I talked to the owner marcus. He said that they just put a new turbo on it and it is pushing more like 900 to the wheels. I'll attach a picture of the change as soon as I download the pictures from my camera.

HiTMaNN 05-24-2004 02:57 PM

900 hahha faster than ANY supra!

DJ Freon 05-24-2004 02:59 PM

Hm, I've seen a dyno of a 1200+ RWHP Supra... Not saying that more hp is faster, but still...

HiTMaNN 05-24-2004 03:10 PM

i know and ive seen skyline that fast why jap cars are unstopable

LiL BenNy 05-24-2004 04:52 PM

its three rotary? standard rx8's are 2 rotart am i correct? how do you make it 3 rotarty... interesting..

DJ Freon 05-24-2004 04:58 PM

There are even customer 4 rotor engines. 3 rotor was produced by Mazda. 4 rotor is custom. Check out www.4rotor.com .

HiTMaNN 05-24-2004 05:45 PM
