Mate of mine had one of these when he was workin at Mc D's about 8 years ago. Used to light up all over the place, very easy to control though cos its such a whale of a car! Anyway, took it off the clock one day and it spat a seal, almost ruined a turbo too, on watching the video again you can see the oil light come on for a second, about 30 sec before it shat itself. Suffice to say he became the bank managers best friend throughout the course of the rebuild!

Very nice cars, I loved cruising round in it with the deluxe interior, farkin tv screen thingy only ever read in japanese tho.

I'm so jealous of this! I want to see engine shots of the other rotaries too!

Luckily mine is a sport edition and doesn't have the monitor that controls the climate, navi, etc... So, I'm going to put in a 7in modern Navi system in it.. Just not sure which model I'll be going with..

Update on my 20B Cosmo...

Just got a custom stainless steel exhaust put in... hope this one lasts longer than the 20 year old stock exhaust I had..













This replaces the pre-cat, 2 x main cat, 2 x silencers, 2 x oem muffler.

Custom exhaust is 3 inch all the way back and uses 1 x large 1 in 2 out muffler, and 2 x 3inch mufflers. I think my Cosmo gained about 25+ HPs. Its has much better response and sounds awesome!

Thanks!

I finally had a chance to also put in the Tein HA coilovers for the Cosmo.. (I would like to thank Tein USA for helping me get replacement parts for this).



And how it sits afterwards..

LOL! I just saw this..

Thanks for the heads up on Ebay.. I got that part but got bent during shipment.. But best of all was get back in touch with a guy I used to deal with in Japan.. yeah!

Here is a picture of the interior..



Lots of wood paneling.. LOL!

My plans for this car is to get a nice stereo system in later on.. I guess a navi system and update all the speakers..
