I found a tii for sale and in the description it says it has a 1.8L turbo.....I thought all rx7's were 1.3L? (very newb question, im very ashasmed to ask this but i searched and cant find nothing)

 

yes Travis, in some years, they came 1.8 Turbo, single turbo.

 

The idiot listed it wrong

 

Haha ****......Its gonna be hilarious when i mention to the guy that he listed it as a 1.8L.

 

Only 1.3L (13B), 1.2L(12A <- not terribly sure its 1.2L so don't quote me), or 1.0L (10A way old school). Also, 2.0L (20b found in Japan mainly or solely, not sure)

 

Yea they put it in wrong, probably better he's selling it also.

 

Haha you learn somethin new everyday. I actually never realized that if you put a decimal inbetween say 13b its how many liters. I knew the litres on all rotary engines but damn.

If this guy says yes it is a 1.8L and says its not rotary ima **** myself. The car im after is a 10th ae.

Can we delete this post lol? I made a complete *** of myself i should never of asked.

 

nah, its all good mang. Also, for more info check out the 'FAQ' section stickied up top. Grats on the 10th annie, I love mine despite it's appearance and all it will take to restore.

 

its a 10AE. yeah make sure its rotary turbo. another thing, in second gens, there are 2 types. Series 4 and series 5. They have their differences, you need to study that one up buddie

I havent boughten it yet, im just about to phone the owner and see whats up.

If it happens to not be a rotary turbo im not interested in it at all. Between s4s and s5s i know the differences pretty well.

 

Yea i just phoned and it sold already. Pisses me off cause 10th ae's are fricken amazing.

 

so a 26B is supposedly 2.6L? so adding 1 rotor only adds .6 liters? 4*.6=2.4... something's not right.....

 

654cc per rotor. 654cc x 4 = 2616cc = 2.6L

 

I think 12As are 1.1L??

 

Im suprised the years/litres arent in the faq.

 

well when you ask questions like this can you blame ppl for thinking you're a super noob??? It's common sense man. BMW 325= #series body 2.5L engine. 318i= 3 series body 1.8L and so forth.

BTW boughten?? where the HELL did you learn English??

LAX-Rotor:

20B= 2.0L 3 rotor
26B=2.6L 4 rotor (double the 1.3 of 2 rotor!)

I do believe they rounded up for the 10A, 12A but they rounded DOWn for the 13B when it came to DISPLACEMENT.

 

You just restated what i just said above in your own words.

I swear people like you actually search through a thread for vocabulary and grammer mistakes. Your cool.

 

so? i restated something.

I do it so people don't laugh in your face when you say it in public!! you look like an inbred knuckle dragging retard when you say BOUGHTEN instead of BOUGHT. Also, I don't SEARCH through threads!! the smart, SEMI-EDUCATED, DETAIL-ORIENTED people spot **** like that like a boob in a class picture. Don't give yourself so much credit, you're not important enough for anyone to search through your threads finding mistakes.

don't be a baby and take critique as a critique not an insult.

come on guy, you used MORE letters, looked stupid and then get all butthurt about it.

 

Last time i checked im on the computer.. Sounds like you have the traits of a english professor. You should consider pursuing a career, and step it up.

 

The 323 GT had a 1.8 liter turbo. Maybe he got frisky and did a goofy swap.

 

Yes, they did round up for 12A. I believe it was 1194cc. 13B is 1308cc. Most engines are named with a letter which is the engine series and the liters of the engine.

 

never mind. I just saw you're from Canada, reminds of of this older canadian forum member that couldn't spell for ****. Go continue being an ignoramus.

 

Damn, we need a popcorn smiley..

 

LOL


I think mazda did some testing many years back. Stuff like 1.5 ltr and 2.0ltr 2 rotor motors. In the end they decided on the smaller 1.0ltr.

 

Hmmm...I guess you like a lot of white paint?
