So i want Esier to come around someday just in case I dont do that good... hahaha. Plus the track ofcourse

Psh my 4-port 2 rotor Auto would take this... psh... lol Nice work man, looks sexy as hell... beast for sure... I assume you have a beefed up tranny since the original one could hardly handle the stock engine...

What is that? An inline 4 cylinder?

Wait a minute! Did you put one of them Mazdaspeed 3 motors in an RX8? Thats awesome!!! What, like, 263hp? I guess it'll be pretty fast.

The Mazdaspeed 3 engine doesn't have 263hp? I think I'm right. Dude.

It's a neat project, but I don't see what the big deal is. People are freaking out like this is "AMAZING", "I'm not worthy", "wow just wow", "awesome", "I can't wait" and crapping themselves in diapers.

05rex8 02-13-2010 05:17 PM

it's a big deal because we love the rotary; it is a rotary powered car forum after all

Making a 4 rotor motor is a big deal. Try adding a few cylinders to your motor and then start a thread showing the build.

What do you mean? They're taking out the rotary and putting in a DISI MZR I4. See the picture? Inline 4.

Unless you believe there's such a thing as a "4 Rotor Rotary Engine"!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!

So dumb. Jeez. 4 rotor. In an RX8. *chuckle*

I'm just as fired up as everybody else. This thing is going to be all those things I quoted.

I hope he does a video.

stickmantijuana 02-14-2010 09:52 AM

so ray's doing this one? that was my first thought for my 3 rotor but he moved away. where is he now? last i heard was arizona. when i go back to cali, hopefully i can keep him busy for a long time :)

btw, how did crispeed make your upper intake manifold? looks like nicely shaped sheet metal but i have no idea how he did that. just wondering what he used, so i can do the same for mine.

crispeed did not do anything in this car.....just made me loose 2 1/2 years waiting and paying him for nothing.

Meh... I always fall behind... I just started my 3-rotor project and I find this... :D Very nice! On RX7club at first I thought the first pics were just housings & plates together, I didn't see the bolts and from seing 3-rotors how it's not evenly spaced I thought it was a teaser, but WOW! It *IS* REAL!!! Very impressive!

^ i said "i'd give my left nut" is that not good enough? :lol2: Im guessing this build is ending up in the 100,000+/-

That mean you would have a sack to barter wtih ;)

m4f1050 02-27-2010 11:05 PM

Just curious, if you already had the motor rebuilt, why new rotors? Was it an NA build, then you decided to go turbo, so you got low compression rotors?

Talic 02-27-2010 11:09 PM

how do you feel about getting rid of the ppf?
i was pondering the same as i want to run 2x pipes to my rear and 1 charge pipe to the front (from the rear)

The motor was never put together.:nono: Always being a turbo project, we used a mock engine to do all the fab work.

Ahhhh, ok! So 4-rotor plates are equally spaced?

Just in case, I found a pic of a 26B, make sure you have the right plates or you will have to modify your intake & exhaust manifold to match after you put it together.

Never mind! I found the pics of your inner plates & the shaft you're using, looks like it's designed that way, a tiny bit longer than the one I posted.
