I love rotary engines and Felix wankel is a freakin' genius. He's probably my most respected engineer ever

I'm a fan of them too - my uncle had a Mazda Rotary in the 1970's and that thing flew. Ever since then I prefer a 20B Rotary motor over a V8.

Never worked on one of course - but you watch this space. Once my boys kart is done, I'll start with my shifter kart and plonk a rotary in there. Once that is done, I shall die a happy man with a smile on my face.

In any case, Kenny congrats on your car - Camry's are very reliable cars and once were extremely common on our roads.

yeah, 20b's are nice, but I like the 13b's just because there are more upgrades for them.


And you know what I hate? When people go and stick a frikin v8 in a rx7. That makes me SO mad because it completely defeats the purpose of having an rx7

Do'nt get me wrong, I'm not against the V's but man having a Wankel engine is just so freaking cool and so darn unique.

Always said to a petrolhead friend of mine - you ai'nt seen nuttin until you saw a screaming Wankel and it'll beat all you chums turbocharged, 6's and 8's. And he always laughed me off and called me crazy. 3 years later he just quietly told me that I was right - a Rotary driven mini pickup smoked them all at the drag wars.

I tend to agree with you on the 13B's - last I look the few shops in the country that does Rotary specialised in 13B coz I think 20B's and their upgrades are very expensive to import.
