I'm sorry, you guys can kiss his *** but I'm not. It was his fault in the first place by posting some broad with an eshaft with no explanation and then later posts a picture of his motor with no info or video's. So yah, me and many other people did not take him seriously. HOw many *****'s have posted stuff like this before and turned out to be just a bunch of bullshit?
Why is it so hard for him to start the post with the picture and a video of his engine running and give some info on his project? That would at least get some buyers interested and people would have taken him seriously. I know I would have.
It's very easy. Start a thread like a grownup and get treated like one. I have started many many threads and aside from a few smart *** comments have had no problems. It's all in the way you start and post a thread.

^^agreed, this guy could probably teach all of us a lesson or two on rotaries.
And the block/housings seem to be one giant piece of metal, like its a am engine block with rotors in it, but thats just an observation. It just makes me want to learn more about it!

Well if this "board sucks" so much, there are plenty of other rotary forums with hundreds of thousands of members...oh, wait, there isn't.
Come on people, think before you type please. I don't want to have to go through this thread as well and start pruning posts.

I think we have to look at it differently. There are tech people, gift of van people, no social skills people, etc.
We have guys that can sell sand in the dessert, and in the other hand guys who couldn't buy a Vegas ***** with $1000.
It was kind of his problem that he came off childish while operating/belonging to a large fabrication operation. We do have the forum **** that won't open their minds because they hand built each and every rotary with the Mazda people themselves.
And like some pointed out, almost half of the members in this forum are not financially able to afford a project like this. So I'm kinda thinking about how he came off and how we came off. Tit for tat. He was childish, and we followed suit.

Didn't take long, did it?
Coming from someone who probably couldn't afford to fill the tanks of fuel on one of those boats. The owners of those boats are on such a different financial level than the vast majority of members on this board, that it's hard for anyone to relate the meaning of cost-effective on toys like those.

the fact he posted here at all surprises me, on a forum of know it alls and doubters
you doubt when a 18 year old kid working out of his bedroom posts ****, this man is a professional and he was treated like some kind of idiot
Then what will happen? he will say I can make xx product and it will cost $xxxx and a bunch of broke idiots who had no intention of purchasing xx would talk **** about how much it costs and that will be the end of that conversation as well.

I will bet my house that if would have started a thread with his name and company and told us about his project/product and gave some good details with pictures and video we would not be posting in this thread right now. THATS HOW A PROFESSIONAL ACTS!

Referring too. I've followed you second gen info for a while. While I may not have years on this board I'm no stranger to it. I only joined to buy parts. If you go though some of the stuff that gets tossed around here it ridiculous. Reminds me of HS sometimes. If I'm out of line I apologize. You could even ban me. There would be no hard feelings.

But to others, my point remains. There were some posts in that thread that were out of line, and posts in this thread that are out of line as well. Just because he didn't give details doesn't get people permission to run all over this thread. Yes, I posted some comments but they were made in jest, just to be funny and there was no malice behind them. Yet it was clear that some of the stuff post was just ridiculous. Anyone who can post up a picture of a 4 rotor shaft obviously has shown there is work behind it, so it is understandable why the OP of the thread was a bit pissed when a bunch people who have no idea what is involved started pooping on his work.

So you think that his very first post with a half naked girl holding an e shaft with no explanation is professional? No it's not and hence the reason he got all the stupid remarks.
I will bet my house that if would have started a thread with his name and company and told us about his project/product and gave some good details with pictures and video we would not be posting in this thread right now. THATS HOW A PROFESSIONAL ACTS!

so the guy was vague in his posting, no need to lynch him
guys with performance boats are rebuilding their engines every year, and it aint a few hundred dollars in seals they are going for, if he has come up with a engine that costs less to freshen up the savings is there. Factor in the weight savings and its a winning combo

When I started that first thread I probably should have waited till I could explain more about the engine before I put it on here... My plan was to put a little more on there each day or two to give people more time to digest and understand what I was building then to just come on here and put a pic of the complete engine.. So yes it was my fault what happened on here. Before I had ask to delete the thread I had wrote Aron and ask if he could just delete my posts where I acted inappropriate, I don't normally do that on forums, winning a fight on a forum is like winning the special olympics... Your still a retard.. And I did not even win the special olympics I only got the bronze medal...
Then I was going to be away from Internet for several days so I just had him delete the thread till I got back and I will start a new thread.
After I loaded the engine out of the show last Monday we got in the boat and ran around the keys for awhile and I just got back in my truck to drive this engine back home, so in a day or two when I get back I will put the thread up again.

We formally apologize to u tyson. Keep up the good work sir. I don't own a boat, but maybe with ur development skills u can build a custom 2 or 3 rotor that will defy the odds of previous builders.
I would like a 1400hp billet 3 rotor, or a v4 or v6 rotary! Just saying!

I look forward to seeing/hearing more about your product and wish you the best.

Firstly the owner builder sales rep is saying its not a mazda rotary well then why in bloody hell is it 960cu ie a divisor of 13B 654cc rotors? So they copied the 13B eccentricity and width! Sounds mazda to me even if they made their own rotors which I doubt.
Next they have designed their sales plan around no oil injection. Haha these motors are gonna be coming in for 12 new rotor housings, apex seals every 400 hours of running time. Thats if they are lucky and don't throw an apex seal through the $4000 turbocharger you would need to strap to the side.
Sounds cost efficient to me

This forum can be WAY TOO CRITICAL sometimes. It's a shame though! We can either support rotary R&D (even non Mazda) or not. I chose to support ANYONE dedicated enough to build something like that.

I'd like to find out more about this 12 rotor. From what I can see, its still assembled one housing at a time, but hes redesigned the shape (and more than likely port timing) of them. I'm guessing the exhaust goes out the bottom leaving the spark... just past the intake?
If you don't mind, I'd like to hear how you changed the port timing on the engine since their definitely not in the original locations.
