Anyway, at the place I go to get parts all the people know about rotaries, or at least the basics. One of the managers at another Advance Auto in town has several FC's, so I guess they found out from him or something.

i usually get the "that's loud" and "how many pistons does it have?" stuff. my friend told me he saw a guy with a yellow fc and this was his conversation-
friend -nice car, is it n/a or turbo?
him -it's a 350 h/p na
friend - really? what are your mods?
him - well it's going to be turbo'ed in the future so right now i got an intercooler hooked up and it's been bored out to 3.2L.
friend- what? do you mean street ported?
him - no, it's bored and sroked to 3.2L
friend - *walks away*
i couldnt stop laughing

i remember one from a while ago. it was a guy selling his 7 on e-bay, and he stated that the 13b was named because it had 13 parts. so i sent him a message stating that he was wrong and it is named for the displacement, and it has way more than 13 parts.

I put headers on my '88 GXL and called up my friend who's into cars, put the phone on the ground by the exhaust and revved the motor for him, he said asked me if i bought a streetbike??
I've gotten the , "oh yeah, a rotary right , their shaft spins right??"
"It sounds like an airplane"
"I like the way it drives" - my mom
with my TII, I am always asked if it's twin turbo,...
"Is it fast??"

Oh and one time, a the shop flooded my GXL and told me that I needed a new motor, I told them to pull the Fuel fuse and the plugs and oil, and blah blah blah and they just thought it was the wierdest thing. It started for them and they were amused. I haven't taken it to that garage since.

"The 13B has a 4th apexi seal on the back of the motor" If I fought with him I knew he wouldn't let it die so I changed the subject. lol He did say he has a nice 1st gen, maybe he just didn't know any better.
