Is it best to gradually ease on the gas with a carb'd rotor, or can you just dump it when you reach a certain revs, depending on your setup?

 

Dump the clutch?????
For a good take off i do it at around 4K

 

nah not on take off, I mean when driving normally, if u want to pin it.

 

I just gradually press the accell down. I find that stomping it right away is not a good idea. heh

 

Driving normally i find it best to ease out the clutch and ease on the gas, u dont always have to have your car matted.

 

Well of course who don't have to have your car matted

 

dumping as in when driving on the highway and u drop back to 3rd do you dump it flat the floor or slowly ease it to the floor? NOT ON TAKE OFF.

 

oh, then i bring it up a grand per gear from where it was at before i pushed in clutch

 

i dump it to second at 55. i nal the gass the second the clutch hits the floof so she spinning about 8500 when i let out the clutch.

 

well theres one seven we wont be seeing for long. I hope u dont mess anyhting up like that man

 

boosted12a...........you take it to 8500 in everyday driving? not good man....not good

 

I havnt even hit 8500 and I drive a bridgy lol

 

no, not every day driving. mines a bridgey too, but she likes 9,000, a lot...

 

i jsut double clutch ...like u all should be doing

 

Oh no, not double clutching again

 

I know what double clutching is but what does it do?

 

its for cars with bad syncros or no syncros in the transmission. It getts the engine gears and the transmission gears spinning at the same speed so that you dont grind. If u ever accidentaly grind a gear and lotsa ppl are around, blame it on a syncro. Double clutching give u no gain like F&TF made it seem

 

I dont trust my gearbox enuff to slam gears.

 

Reving the **** out of a rotary, NOT GOOD?!? What are you talking about, these engines LIVE to rev. A good redline run everyday will help clear out the carbon, and will do no major damage. This isnt a ******* honda, wind the thing out!

 

Yea, redline is at like 8000 max. Not 8500. Even with a bridgeport is your alt, and fan, and water pump and everyhitng rated to handle that, i doubt it. Ull end up throwin a fan through the radiator

 

If you race and you're in the powerband 80% of the time, yes, 8500 rpm can be deleterious to rotary health if not built for it. But on the street, you'll only hit that for a moment, so with synthetic oil in the pan, it'll never be a problem internally and the belts will stay on externally. The '80 RP streetport could do it all the time, it was the car chassis that always bought it first...

 

underdrive pulleys kick ***

 

the only thing ive thrown are flames out the exhaust between shifts, and my ps belt. so now the belt stays off!

 

oh, and if your still runnin a belted fan with a bp, well, you deserve to have it go through your rad....

 

whats ps belt? power steering? lol
