hey the renisis is pretty powerful. it pulls off 250hp stock and its a N/A. so just imagine if they made a decent turbo kit for it

Actually it gets less than 250hp. It gets about 238hp at the fly and what gets to the wheels is a little over 180hp. Some people dont think its enough, but its pretty impressive if you look to the older N/A rotories and piston engines with the similar displacement of 1.3L Buts thats if youre on the side that says that the 13B gets 1.3liters in displacement, some people say otherwise but I forgot why. Can anyone tell me why?

i did not know it was just 180 at the wheels compared to 230 whatever. oh well but yeah that is still quite amazing. what is the old RX7? i think the N/A FC is supposed to have 160 so that is at the flywheel?

I dunno. I havent seen anyone dyno a stock N/A FC. I estimate prolly around 120, maybe less maybe more?

Toyota 2000gt engine - The 3M engine put in under the long-nose hood is the first 6 cylinder in-line DOHC engine in Japan.

NOT A V6

The Skyline never had a V6 ALWAYS INLINE.

The Z V6

A 30k V6 supra and a 50k V8 one car but competes with two the 350Z and the next GTR "saves money, smart toyota"

No expensive turbos. Thats a job for HKS


FLAME suit on.

the Z started with inline sixs under datsun and when became nissan became V sixs but japan still had the 200ZR with the Z31 body and a 2.0 inline turbocharged 6 cylinder

The Z stands for the six cylinder engine and the number for the engine liter size. But in Jdm they are all Fairladys and go by chassis codes.

You dare challange what i say. My words are as if spoken by god himself, or the devil. lol

Now why the hell did the name go from datsun to nissan?

back on the RX topic a 3 rotor for the RX7 would make more sense, turbo or supercharger are expensive, dame i would rather get a 3 rotory na then a 2 rotory turbo and BOOM "warrenty"

The engine From the RX8 would do wonders in the mx5 "i hate its girly-men name" thank god they never named the RX7.

Imagine the RX8 RX7 MX5 all on one chassis would be cost effective.

Rx8 -Renesis 2 rotor $26,680
RX8 -renesis supercharged "mazdaspeed" dealer option $4000

Rx7 -Renesis 2 rotor $28,000
RX7R -3rotor ??? $32,000
Rx7R Mazdaspeed 3 rotor turbo $36,000-38,000

MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata rotory $25,000

Most of it is just my idea on how Mazda can spend some earnings.
I need a job at Mazda headquarters.

Of course you think for the good of all of us...But you're pricing estimates are very far fetched...I'll explain why. Sadly, most of you know Mazda is partly owned by Ford. Ford owns them enough to decide what vehicles to make and what options to include. As you know, Ford isn't doing too well right now...If Mazda will ever go supercharger, turbo or 3-rotor rotary(highly unlikely) they will have to get the green light from Ford first. Lastly, if you want goodies from Mazda, you gotta sleep with it's wife...

[zerodrifter]

if only the wife was a stut........hey we can dream

S4 NA-140
S5 NA- 160

Theres a vid of a s4 whopping the *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* out of a rx8 auto, s4 is modified but not much. I'll try to put the link up. RX8's are pretty reliable and quick, much faster than my fc but doesn't handle as good, most likely cause I have mods on it, we took it down a little canyon area and you can feel the horrible body roll, he was driving it. Then I drove it and felt its straight line accel, lighted up 2nd nicely. I talked to the mazda mechanics though and they said that if people leave the 8 for a week sitting it wont' start and needs all this bs.

I'm not 100% sure but I dont think the Blue Oval has complete contol of Mazda like we think they do. Doesnt Ford own like 30 or 40% of Mazda stock? With this amount of stock, Ford can attend shareholder meetings and have an influence on the decisions Mazda makes. Even with this stock, there is still another 60 to 70% of Mazda being able to do whatever the heck they wanna do. But then again...40% is a major chunck of Mazda, enough to turn the Ford Focus to a Mazda 3....

I don't get the main idea of your paragraph, but any modified car can always take out a stock one most of the time. And I heard the RX-8's suspension is top-notched. And maybe it won't start up in cold weather or something. And I don't know anything else to say since you weren't specific on the "bs".

BS was the car is flooded, the car is meant to be driven every day, and the owners are idiots because the engine needs a break-in period, you need the seals to rest in, I can't believe that they just push it AS soon as its started up, He started it and was just bouncing the rev limiter for me to hear the new rotary I definetly know when I buy a new car i'm rolling it off the line with 0 miles, or have them roll it off the trailor. Just like a rebuild your first 5k are the most important for the motor you break in, compression will be wack then settle in. RX8's supension is good, its just because i have mods that it doesn't make it feel good. RX8 can do everything my FC can do but Better. As for not starting up its the flooding issues, New cars have callbacks and whatnot. Long writing sorry, just trying to clarify junk. The na fc wasn't modified out the wazoo, basic mods its just a rx8 auto has like what 60+- hp less than a 6speed? and weighs a bit over 3k lbs. Please correct me if anything is wrong.

I don't know how many times I've seen a "new this and that!!" "The next this and that!!" Japanese magazines have been telling us there will be a new RX-7, GTR, NSX, Supra, Silvia.. whatever .. for like 4-5 years already...
*Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored*, some of them are reporting that Mazda will bring back the Savanna RX-3 as an RX-8 hatchback.. I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.

[amejin_japan]

I guess I didn't really contribute anything with that last post, so here you go. New Integra: on sale from 9/17 (Japan only?)

TYPE R

TYPE S
http://response.jp/issue/2004/0916/a...ages/72447.jpg

[Thai Juku]

That looks like the a concept model...Cuz the current one right now looks more aerodynamically advanced.

[blargonator]

yeah i like the integra that is out now. those are actually pretty quick. i have a friend who has one but that "new" one looks a little more like the DA or whatever. i dont remember much about tegs though.

[amejin_japan]

No, it's not a concept. It goes on sale today.

http://www.honda.co.jp/auto-lineup/i.../top-image.jpg

[blargonator]

i dont think they will release that in the U.S. because i saw the new type S and it looks slightly different that the last year but its just little things like the steering wheel and pedals. it will probably be like usdm style and then jdm style stuff. just like the old double dot style headlights here compared to the full ones every where else.

[amejin_japan]

Has your friend ordered his new JDM Integra front end yet? Haha!
You all know that's the next movement in Hodna style. Lots of RSXs with the kouki front.

Nothing wrong with getting a kouki front...

[blargonator]

what is the point of getting a kouki front? its ok but i would rather spend money on parts. that is just me though.

oh yeah, guys my dad found a guy who has a 77 porsche it is the 924. manual of course and it supposedly still runs. i cant wait to find out tomorrow. its in great condition and he did not even get to drive it because the owner was to large to drive it.
