No problem.

Everybody thank Section 8 for hosting it:

Worthy of putting in the FAQ sticky imo...

 

My old roommate has a corvette from that era. My FD was definitely faster, and it definitely requires much less work/repairs than that corvette does. Good lord that thing is always broken (and was on its 2nd engine at 100k).

 

My5ABaby ,

Thanks for hosting those Section8

 

No problem

 

Thanks for posting all that, Section8. I've got a technical paper on the R26B, the 4-rotor engine used in the Lemans-winning 787B racecar. PM me with your email and I can send you the file, it's a MS Word .doc file.

You've got mail also.

-s-

 

i'm interested in that file. can you send it to x_liberation@hotmail.com.

thanks

 

"with it's sequential turbochargers (one for low speeds, a larger one for high speeds)..."

they fail.

 

LOL

 

Here's the R26B Paper. My host converted it to .pdf when i uploaded it

bump

 

My car is 10 years old, with 70k miles, and the turbos are working fine. From what I've seen, most RX-7's that don't work correctly are the ones that haven't been maintained well.

That my favorite emoticon out of any I've ever seen. I just HAVE to use it .

That R26B paper is very interesting. It provides ALOT of information I hadn't seen before and I've looked up stuff about the R26B before.

 

torque, the vette has lots of it, the rx-7 series has..... none of it haha.

 

he was talking about hwo the people in the magazene were wrong not the turbos failing. I don't even have an FD and I know that it's for engine RPM not for higher and lower speeds.

(oh and to people wondering why I'm posting here, you're cars are way sexier I thought I'd see what you guys talk about some)

 

that really doesn't explain how myself a "good" driver can pull off a quarter mile time seven tenths faster than a professional driver. like others have said i think its a harder car to launch than the vette.

 

maybe their driver was not used to the rotary and was scared to break a $33k car by over revving it?

 

hey can you post the hole article the pdf version so i can zoom in thanks

 

A link to the hosted pdf was posted earlier in the thread...

 

Nice article on the four rotor.

Got some articles from Magazines around '92 featuring FD's.

Couple of group tests, and a long term test.

Would anyone be interested?

 

Sure, why not. PDF's or what?
