Is the 13B really a 2.6 liter????
I read a article in sport compact car today that pissed me off! They say the 13B is really a 2.6, and the 3 rotor is really a 3.9!! He said Mazda has been lying to us all!?!
This is BULLCRAP!!! I'll state my thoughts quickly and see what everyone else feels. He states the rotary should be doubled because it fires twice as often as a piston engine. If this is true, why dont we Double the displacement on a 2 stroke piston engine? And a single rotor fires 3 times, yes 3 times in 2 crank rotations. Not 2. So going by his rules, I guess we should TRIPPLE the size! Articles like this is why the rotary has a hard time with the public. Write your responses, and reasons, maybe we should all write to Sport Compact Car!! |
There is apparently already a 6-page thread on this exact topic in the Lounge.
Check it: www.rx7club.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=165579 Of course, being that it is a Lounge post, I stopped reading at around page 2, so I cannot attest to its content (or, possibly, lack thereof. YMMV). |
It's a one man vs. the world thread. It got really nasty in the later posts. I too stopped paying attention after awhile.
As for SCC..that whole article sucked. It was like they didn't really give the FD it's due. And they even got the prices of the cars completly wrong. Buncha BS. |
dont listen to the crap, its 1.3.
PERIOD. |
i agree, as far as any racing orinizations are concerned its a 1.3L right, right... end of story
|
its a 1.3, thats my story and I'm sticking to it. That 2.6 crap was a way for those pos Hondas to look better I think, who knows.

There's no salvaging the damage that we inflict on Honda's and other imports like that. They're all just mad that cars with smaller engines than Harley Davidson bikes are kicking their azzez!!
