where does the damage happen?

Say you miss a shift and go to 9, 10K? how much will that do

omg not this again...Bro, I've learned my lesson and so shall you...search.
Quick answer though..rev to 7k or your current Red Line..shift.
This is good for the Rotary.
And if you miss it once or twice big deal. Missing all the time, think faster than mayonaise.

basiacly rotarys LOVE high revs hah

dont worrie about it you could sit at red and alittle over for a good sec and not have to worrie. its when you are maxing it out in the red and not shifting then we have a problem.

i take my FC past red alot. usaly when im racing and i heel toe and i shift into too low of a gear and spike the car.

DONT WORRIE ABOUT IT

The rotary seems to make a hgiher and higher pitched sound per 1K rpm so I think the car was at 11K ish for 2seconds as it was down reving as it was in N there was abunch of loud POP POP POP sounds and we have a cat.....idk what that was but man it puffs alot of blue smoke at that rpm

bye bye coolent seals

cmanns

no way haha

the car is giving a coolent level low buzzer when its first started and on a unlevel surface then it goes away n the car never goes aboe 75% on the gauge for temp tho

i feel you on the uneven surface giving false warnings.

ill be grippign and the weight will shift somewhere or when im doing donuts or drifting the low oil light comes on then right off when i stop and when i check it its running and the mid stick... its weird...

but with blue smoke its usaly coolent and 75% is pretty hot man

cmanns

**** rly?

it was smoking at 5K rpm so my dad just opened the throttle body all the way and held it for awile I saw the rpm gauge go past 8k to the little thing that stops it then it went even higher so maybe 12K even i mean i was standing behind the car watching for when blue came out and the rpm's and it pushed my dubble knee dickes around my legs like those tight peg leg pants haha then he let go and it like backfired?

Once I actually killed the car from fuel starvation in a really hard turn....

But yeah, rotaries are really well balanced, but the seals and eccentric shaft take a beating when you overrev.

There was this video online of some guys who took a damged engine and gave it full throttle with no load...and even under those INSANE revs, it took a long time for the engine to blow....and when it did blow, it was from all the coolant bubbling out of the tank.

well i have that problem but with white smoke because i have an oil leak and around 6k-8k on my S5 i get smoke.

But yeah running at around 75% is pretty high... Is it constant or does it flux. My car usaly stays at half on a normal day but on cold or hot days it goes up by a hair or 2. but more than half is usaly a coolent problem. and blue smoke should be the first sign of a problem.

cmanns

but blue means oil, white is coolent bro

as far as I know haha

in the past 6 years its always been lower then 80% and the car only overheated once 9 years ago..its a 91

The coolent hasnt even been changed tho there is only 70K miles....time to change coolent?

rotarydrifter90

i would think its time to change the coolent hahaha

cmanns

daamnn is it hard to do so?

car looks like that when its reved up high the blue **** puffs out it isnt steady I just thought it was too much oil injected, then i was told its the oil seals but it DOSENT smoke on the road, maybe car going too fast toshow or iono
