You have zero first hand on any of these motors. This isn't the first time I have brought this up to you. As well as your theory on rotory displacement. How much do you think swaping a 2.3T will cost? It will cost A LOT more than the cost of a motor and trans. Just stop man.

Blue Oval, we don't need someone else in here talking about a 2.3T. They are fine motors, but no one here gives a **** about them. Take yourself on back to Torquecentral or where ever it is you came from.

GTORX7... Sweet ride man. What is the throttle response like? This is the one thing I like about NA rotories, instant throttle response. The Scoot 4 rotor is pretty intense. Any word on the PPorts? I'm looking forward to the dyno session and hearing a 10K redline. The car is damn nice man. 300-400RWHP is all I need on Road America and in SCCA Solo II. Nihilanthic doesn't seem to understand that not everone likes to go in a straight line with junk yard ****. It's OK, the 2.3T is only his newest day dream and as soon as some other cheap *** alternative comes up we will jump on that boat.
The throttle response is very nice and crisp! Everytime I do a high speed stop with heel/toe downshifting, its hard to describe the total rush and amazment it provides. None of the turbo cars or other n/a cars I've ever driven can even come close to matching it. P-ports are delayed again, I spent some of my extra cash on a CLEAN 2nd gen for a new daily driver, my current FC is rusting badly, so the replacement will be nice. BUT, once I get the ecu figured out, I will be back on schedule making more power! I am shooting for 355 rwhp w/ p-ports @8600rpms, so we will see right?

Guys, if you have nothing to contribute to this thread, please don't start trouble on it. It started out as a fantastic thread on something not too many people have done. Congrats on the car. As for the others, don't post, if you just want to start trouble and mess a thread up.

I agree 100%. The car is awesome GTORX7! I might take you up on the 20B solution offer.

I have found that the further you go from normal, and do something different, people love it or hate it, black or white. The grey area is minimal. As for Blueoval351, and Nihilanthic, they have different taste, and I am fine with that, but I feel respect goes further than words do. So I only ask if you hate my car, thats fine, just dont post about it in here, please send me a PM and I can go one on one ***** out style with you. And I will give anyone a ride that is in the area if you want to see what its like!

Yeah, you know you don't have to like something to respect it. I wish I was anywhere near your area, I'd LOVE to see the car in person and go for a ride. I hope you hit at least 350 whp. If I had an N/A triple rotor, that would make me very happy to be putting that much power to the ground. A great, unique engine with plenty of power for the street and for drift.

Damn, now you've got me thinking about putting one in my FC again...

not to get out of hand or repeat something that has already been said, but how bout posting pictures of a real car? with the engine swap? not just some fantasy car you fream of in your head and look up on paper. paper is alot different from real life, onpaper bee's can not f;y, but holy **** one just stung me cause it's flying, you really need to pull your bowling ball sized head out of your *** cause it stinks the whole forum. no matter how indifferent his car is from your "dream car" have respect, i don't agree wiht all the little ricers the crowd the streets but they still love cars and hell that good enough for me to talk to them, we are not part of a special "elite" group that can afford what ever we want, hell i'm a college student with no money and no job yet, but hell have respect or people are gonna walk over you and treat you the way you treat them, like a sack of ****, so grow up or get off the fricking forums, no one loves a hater so either shut up or go away.




By the way GtoRx7 ****ing sweet car the engine is a work of art even though i don't completly understand it, props to guys who do thier own thing and make everyone else look twice, and wonder why.



My hat comes off to your efforts.

woah, thats definitely him but i didnt film it. I was there and I was in the car in that last run. Thats a terrible representation of his drifting, especially considering how bat that original cone set-up was. it was set up for like, stock 240's. After they got rid of all the cones you could tell he did ten times better, but thats weird that someone made a video dedicated to his car that I dont think he even knew about.

On the 8th day GOD created the 20b's exhaust note.

Oh yea, how were your engine temps holding up during those drifting sessions?

The temps stayed solid at about 185-190 Degrees F. Its running ultra cool, and getting much better gas mileage now that its well over 6000 miles on it. On the way back from michigan to ohio, I averaged 21mpg, and was running the **** out of it most of the way, averaging 95-100 mph! It was a fun last run for the year, its been put away for the winter, hopefully going to break out next year in a much more fiercer form.

Can't wait to see her next year... pports and all...


You, um, will keep us updated, right?


Also, if anyone has the piece for boardwalk from mcdonalds, if you want to go halves, we could have 2 more 3 rotor N/A 7's in this poorly deprived world...

Very impressive GtoRx7! looks like you may need to practive a little more on the drifting though haha, just messing with ya. I would kill for this set up! but for me road racing is the only way to go. Congrats on the project and best of luck with it in the future, I can't wait to see the results from the pports.
