Just wondering if any of you have this same experience with your 6 speeds. Seems like every time I get up to about 6000rpm I hear this noise from the engine. It is hard to explain but it doesn't sound like anything is wrong just a noise I never heard before in a car but then again I never had a rotary engine before. Just curios if anyone else noticed this?
Thanks!

 

what gas are you using?

I have heard it in mine also

 

no offense to nemisis8 but your answer does not lie in that thread he linked to.

it is in this thread. it is when the tertiary ports open.

 

Thanks for the help all that answered everything I needed to know. I had no idea mazda went that dynamic in their intake system. And like I said this is my first rotory so any different kind of noise I hear is new to me Your knowledge of the 8 is unmatchable!

 

thank you for the compliment:D but there are a few here that know more about it then me- wakeech, rotarygod, mazdamaniac and canzoomer (not in any particular order) come to mind and i am sure i am leaving a few out

 

No offense taken - thanks zoom :o
