I was browsing ebay and came accross this guy selling a 82 rx7 with what he calls a "unique 5 cyl rotary engine" I am assuming that this guy is stupid and doesn't know **** about rotaries, am i wrong was there some special rotary engine?

here's the link

looks like he's just dumb.. unless he put a Volvo or Audi engine in it.

 

That's what I thought thanks

 

i sent an email asking him to explain what a 'unique 5 cyl rotary was'. i'll post the reply here if i get one. hmmm... it oughta be fast, it's got one more rotor than a 787B

 

Intressting idea.. a volvo 5 cyl turbo in a 1st gen.. .... ....

no.. I'll stick with the one and only engine for the Rx..

got the reply...."I have been informed that I am full of sh@t. I am sorry a friend told me it was a fivecylender. I meant to say it is unique in the fact that it is rotary. My homblest apology. "

at least he's got good humour about it

 

I think an Acura Vigor comes with a 5 cyl as well...

How do you get spark plugs for that or a 3 cyl? Being that plugs some in packs of 4, 6, or 8.

 

You could by 10 plugs and be set for 2 changes And thanks Rotorhead for clearing that up.

 

that is if you buy 5 packs of 2 plugs each. I love rotaries but a 5 cyl turbo Volvo engine would be mighty sweet magnus

 

"RX-7 with a powerful V6 engine!"

I saw that one a few too many times in the classifieds. Hence my licence plate and Forum ID.
