    • rotaries are cool, I went to college with a guy who was obsessed with them.

      I personally would own an FD if I had enough money, but I don't lol

      • i know they dont just drop in! The rotaries are half the size of a rb and alot less to them as far as wiring etc but many people have done rb swaps into them and it's an awesome combo for those who cant stand the rotary but love the look of the car
        Miss driving sooooo bad! Need to get a car on the road ASAP!

        • Dunno why everyone praises them for revving so high, not like you can wind out a street car very much, Unless your a stoplight racer or something.

            That also explains why they're a bitch on gas.
            if there are explosions in your engine somthing is wrong thats what we call detenation thats a bad thing my friend its a controlled burn.

            • An explosion if just a quick release of energy...whether ignition is made by a spark plug or by heat, it is still an explosion. Stop playing with words.

              And how is the burn "controlled" ?

                  Your engine is powered by explosions.

                      Actually, it's power by elves that drop little sticks of dynamite down the spark plugs. Knocking/detonation is caused when the little elves drop the dynamite sticks at the wrong time.

                        • Owning a rotary, they are not as reliable as the piston engine and do not seem to be as economical, but do sound amazing at the higher RPM's.
