So, You think your Mazda rotary is the sh!t? Nissan FTW !!

I thought those things could rev to 9000 with not much work. That's not much of a window to work with. Certainly not what I'm sure the ForceFed rotary dyno sheet would look like that I saw tearing up the track at the 1000' mark (at 130mph I might add).

That thing was spinning the tires in 4th gear at about 9k right through the traps.......YIKES!!!!

Good point haha I never noticed the fairly limited revs haha, an RB can do better pfft.
Not a bad power to torque ratio though, tuned that way perhaps? Limit revs, up the boost, and so on...

the TQ drops off quickly on those things plust the small window of RPM as mentioned.
im not saying you cant get one quick, just not as impressed as what they are all made out to be in the end,

Guess thats why this place exists

no worse then that clown in kamloops with his so called 600hp RX7 (so he claims) but declined a FREE dyno at Enhanced? lmao!

rotary's have a poor Tq curve, sure...you can grab great HP #s but the car hardly moves cuz of the Tq curve. And...they are disposable motors to say the least. Not like its worth a rebuild on a rotary. i stay clear of RX7's even though i will agree they are nice in appearance.

lol, typical uninformed rotary hate.



drive one.


I`m not out there to prove anything to anyone. What ever if my car makes less torque than something else. My car will beat %90 of the cars at the track and I`ll be happy with that. It`s funny you make that comment considering that you drive a gts-t. No offense or anything but my 1.3L can net more power an torque than your engine ever will.

Show me another car that will make 430whp on a GT35R at 15PSI with full spool under 4k. And it`s only getting better. There are a lot of companies out there mixing and matching turbos to maximize compressor flow with the huge exhaust flow that rotaries put out.

Let me go find some dyno plots... or hell watch this.

STOCK motor. Just a GT35R thrown on and E85 (sure kind of cheating, but lots of guys are running pump with water injection now and making the same power).

Disposable motors because they're cheap to rebuild? How is that bad?

Also, anyone that thinks that rotaries have no torque have never driven a decent one and are ignorant of the facts. A stock FD has plenty. My 20B cosmo makes more torque (320FTLBS @2200RPM) than any japanese car made for 10 years after it. It also burns more gas than any japanese car ever made, I bet. Oh well. you win some and you lose some.

Good idea, I put like ten seconds into finding the one I posted haha.

[falcon]

Street port
T-67 20 psi on 91 pump gas



Just wait until my car is done ...

[falcon]

24PSI
93 octane

[falcon]

And this is on a stock engine with stock turbos at 15PSI running parallel.



there`s like 10 pages of dyno plots here

Hey I bought a fully rebuilt street ported motor with ALS seals, new bearings etc. for 2850USD. Must be disposable I guess
