rotors excite me
iTrader: (16)
I had a guy at Advance who OWNS an '85 RX-7 tell me that you gotta watch out for those seals because they're unreliable, and then went on to ponder whether or not rotaries have a cam shaft or not. He couldn't remember. I'm not inclined to ever ask him for rotary advice...

wow, i just found this thread so i hope i'm not to late. funniest thing hands down that i've heard about my car (86 gxl) was one day after soccer practice when i was gettin back into my car. my teammate who has a beat down 80 something corolla with flip-ups (not an ae86 tho) was parked nextto me. this is how it goes:
him: so yea, we like pretty much have the same car. except mine is white.
me: and except your's is a corolla and not an rx-7 and a toyota and not a mazda and uses a completely different engine and layout.
him: but whats that gotta do with anything?
me: IT'S A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CAR
him: not if i put a V6 in mine too.

...okay, DUDE.
if he's an idiot..? what does that make you for taking your car (that you couldnt fix) to him to work on it.
most of the electronics crap thats around nowadays didnt always exist, or werent in the public eye.. so yea, i'm not surprised he didnt know what it did or was.

This story takes place while being towed.
Driver: Man I love those things my parents wouldnt buy one for me.
Me: yeah?
Driver: I used to race my crx and I would always beat the RX-7's in the corners but man are they quick. They're built for their speed.
I laughed to myself and try to hold back owning him in the whole its built for its handling. So instead I did it by explaining the almost perfect 50-50 weight distribution.

him- you are missing a lot of stuff
me-no it runs ,whats missing

and then it was that 5 hour class about the rotary and how it works and after all that is said and done he tells me " i though it was one of dem darn firebired with some lip kit on it"

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
My car was setup for track & now it's setup on jack-stands but when it was running I had the bar, the really high buckets, the five-point harnesses and I'm tallish so I installed a sparco quick-release hub so I can get in and out with my knees intact. So I pull into the local Town Fair tire and all the little ricers gather 'round oohing and ahhhing, then the harness goes away and the ooh's get louder, I pop the wheel off and the ahhh's are getting outta control. I get outta the car and the first thing I hear is..
yo yo yo.... where's the NAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
No NAAAAAAAASSWWWWWWWWWSSSSSSSSSSSS, real motor.... got rotor's no need for the funny fog and either way - track car my friend
whaaaaaa fooooo. See dat crx out there, I'll smoke your azzzzzz.
Whatever you say.
Then his friend chimes in.
Nah man, unless you got some serious head work done, like some titanium valves and springs, stroked that thing out with the deck and then add that turbo on - you got no chance against that honda.
It's a rotary.
Yeah so.
It doesn' have any of those things you just said.
wha??
Rotary... you know, rotors.... no pistons, no valves, no head, no stroke.. none of that..
Fooo every motor got pistons...
Can you please fix my tire now.
I'm sorry but all the little ricer/honda things really give me an instant headache.

A kid here in town just bought a 88 N/A and asked me to come over and take a look at it. It is pretty rough but it's got potential just like any 7. So he tells me (and I quote) "Since I know everything there is to know about piston engines I thought I would get an RX7 so I can get to know these rotary engines too. I'm thinking I'll go ahead and put one of those 800 stroker kits in it." It took everything I had not to start laughing in his face, So I told him that sounds great good luck with that and I gotta go, see ya round.

lol cuz he probably saw that car auction on tv a while back when that rare Rx-7 went for around the same price and they mentioned it was one of only a few in the world. I think it was some sort of specially modded Bathurst R. lol you should have asked him if he wanted to give you that much for it.

Walking out of my car to go to work. I have a turbo timer on the thing, so every time, people look at me. This one is the most classic...
Her: You're car is still on, man!
Me: Yeah, it's got a turbo timer on it.
Her: Haaaaaaaaaahahaha, man, that's SO made up.
Me: *cries from retardedness*

A friend of mine would set his stop watch to his turbo timer (30 seconds) so that when people said that he could tell them that he bought one of the ole' Knight Rider cars and that his watch could now control his car. The short, "whatever you silly old man," comment would ensue, the stop watch would go off, the car would shut down, people would be in awe.... I though it was funny as hell.

I've always wanted to dress my car up like Night Rider as best I could...just so I could fulfill my childhood fantasy of having KIT.

I had a neighbor that was going senile. A least once a week when I was out there wrenching on it he would ask me if it had a V6 in it. Nice old man, but I always thought he was going to drive his truck right threw my front room.
