[TOYROTA] Regular Location: A.C.T Registered: July 2002	Re: 13b into AE86 Thu, 29 April 2004 15:05 SoarerFury wrote on Wed, 28 April 2004 21:46 talking about rotarys i saw a mazda cosmo engine in a ae86.. don't ask me how they fit the thing... Hehe obviously not a rotor head. I'm assuming you're talking about the motor from the JC ECCS Cosmo hence the fact you would be talking about the longer 20B 3rotor powerplant. That was what everyone was talking about at the start of the thread. Just 2clear up a coupla other things. It's FELIX Wankel, not frederick, and i recall someone's rotational(?lol) slurr about "inherent problems".... oooo don't go there. Back in the '70s yeah sure, millionaires made out of Apex seal manufacturers. But these days if it's built right in the first place with the right components, they last for donkeys. Someone who gets their mate who pulled his first rotor apart 12months ago to rebuild their motor with apex seals from here, oil seals from there, rotor housings from under the house, then they go out with no idea, slap synthetic oil in it (BIIIGGGGGG nono) and go for a strap before it's warm, belt the crap out of it and park it then shut it off, of course it's gonna blow. Maybe not the first time, but eventually it will. You take your motor to someone who knows what they're doing, get it all done professionally, drive it properly, and you'll have it for many years to come. It's like they say, everyone straps rotors constantly all the time, it's fun, they're quick, and why not, but in the end don't go crying cause it's dead in a 1/4 the time(or less) of a piston engine. Also, dont then go and compare it to your under-strung (if that's a word) bluebird that you potter around in and drive 1/100th as hard as your rotor, and say they dont last. And before anyone tries to come back all guns blazing about their mates, cousins, boyfriends, second father twice removed, who had an RX7 built properly by some big-name rotary engine rebuilder = "He always drove it softly (who always drives rotors softly? Not many ) and it blew on him after 6months." If that's the case, i'd tell you to go straight back to the person who built it and demand an explanation! I know for a fact what they can and cant do, because i own one, unlike the majority of people who mouth off, some of them have never even been in one, let alone owned one! The fact that i own a low ten-second RX3 with, yes you read it right readers, STANDARD INTERNALS, proves my point thoroughly wouldn't you agree? And before i get the, "Yeah but it'll be dead in 3months"....ummm no sorry, it was built a good 3-4 years ago now and still going strong! Ohh whats that, i drive it twice a year? Ummm, wrong again, twice a week when i have the time, and then once a month roughly there's the odd track day, yes readers, circuit racing a ten second car on standard internals. Plus the fact it's on a 10,000rpm cutout and sees that many of the times it's been started. I know there's a lot of cinical people out there who won't beleive it, but you can call RXEngineering in Newcastle yourselves any time you like and enquire about PRO-10Z personally. I would say you can see it as described at this years fast fours jamboree but i am, and not because it's about to blow, but i am re-building it in order to have the internals done to allow me to run more boost and drop into the 9's! So there you have it, for all those that didnt know, or for all those that knew but didn't know what to say when confronted with people mouthing them off, feel free to use the above information anyday! p.s. I know whoever mad that little remark questioning rotaries "inherent problems" meant no harm, just know that this 'outlash' was definately not aimed at you, it just inspired me to inform everyone about my views. It's obvious though that there are many people who like to go around and bad mouth rotors and other types of cars, these people annoy me but once again if we all had the same interests it would be a very boring world. Just dont take it too far with the slagging, fortunately i havn't come across anyone like this on TOYMODS, verry pleased! cheers [Updated on: Thu, 29 April 2004 15:10] [Report message to a moderator]
