The cars are amazing, unique and beautiful in so many ways. That Rotary Engine life starts to wear on you pretty quickly though. Pre-Mixing your gas, moving your car 10ft to mow the lawn takes 20mins with the warm-up needed before shutting it down, randomly occuring Rotor seizings for seemingly no reason at all which require 5-7 days of no use with ATF Fluid down the Spark Plug holes soaking the seals to break them free.
And OH MY GOD... the HEAT they generate.
I'm all for OEM JDM Car preservation, but if a Turbo Rotary RX owner engines being able to reliably drive his/her car with out having to constantly worry about Fuel/Oil mixture ratios, operating temperatures, and the HORRIBLE MPGs!!!
If it's within your means and you've decided that rotary life is a pain, swap out that Rotary... we understand and sympathize. Plus it gives the Rotary purists another 13B Swap pulled and available for purchase.
>premixing is a pain >probably doesn't even know this used to be more common, too
what a baby

No shit, dumbass. I don't like rotaries but they're obviously not for people who care about miles per gallon, they're just meant to be fast, and you can only do that by sacrificing some basic shit. >inb4 LS1 swap >inb4 "rotary won le mans" You're a dumbass, OP, get a real opinion and stop copying others from speedhunters, fucking chameleon.

>ATF Fluid down the Spark Plug holes only retards believe this just don't do it

>the cars are amazing, unique and beautiful in so many ways. >so just swap the most unique part of the car out because preventative maintenance is too hard. car culture truly has hit rock bottom.

i blame fuccbois

It's bullshit, these engines only seize when they flood from cold shutdowns or sit around with oil/fuel/coolant stuck inside the housing for long periods of time.
Jonathan Martinez
Reminder GM has never ever won Lemans Reminder the fastest RX-7's are rotary powered Reminder the fastest rotary engines are faster down the quarter than any LS engine

Please go get a fucking therapist and stop shitting up here.

Fuck off. Stop molesting beautiful Japanese cars. Leave them as they are. If you want a fucking car with a fucking LSmeme in it, fucking buy a car that came with one factory. Stop destroying the few nice examples left of Japanese automotive dominance without restrictions put upon them by the environmental agencies, Japanese economy, soccer mom's, and safety standards

That track is smaller than our autocross course ROFL
Chase Powell
So how hard is it to return an fucked up FD back to rotary? I'm asking because molested LS swapped ones go pretty cheap on CL like 7k cheaper
Wyatt Lee
its the premier time attack track in japan. deal with it faggot
Carter Garcia
sounds like some work you'd need a lot of parts, like the engine for one if it's an FD, 13REW can set you back anything around $500-$1500 alone, i reckon
Owen Reed
This. This article unironically disgusts me.
Jonathan Adams
Stop molesting cars because you fuckwits are too dim to learn how to care for them.

>I’m sure the V8 swap will disappoint some, but despite that substitution I really believe that this car would make the original manufacturer quite pleased. The first reason being that this thing is very well looked after: over the 23 years it’s been alive it’s clocked less than 26,000 miles.
>Undriven, unenjoyed car >LS swapped while 13B-REW was still well within lifespan Rotary purists at Mazda would hang him.

Go to a therapist

>be me >consider myself a car guy >even though i'm too lazy to perform basic maintenance and then when my laziness eventually ruins my engine i declare all rotaries to be shit these people need to be put in concentration camps
Parker Flores
>over the 23 years it’s been alive it’s clocked less than 26,000 miles what a hardparking faggot
Luke Phillips
How can somebody this stupid? >26k miles >well looked after
Christian Walker
yeah
Eli Brown
Is it possible to blow 13B so fast... I have 84k miles atm
Jeremiah Howard
>premier time attack track nice meme motorsport made by a bunch of nips that can't handle other cars on the track when racing
