Hey LILHemi, you sure give poor old DocHoliday a hard time. What do you have that's so fast? From your username I would guess to say that you have a little inline 4 banger doing high 12's or something? You sure like to come over to the Mazda forums alot. Time to get away from the darkside and join the force. hehe

Nitrous and a plugged fuel filter or improperly set airfuel mixture, timing, etc, will grenade any engine. Whatever you do don't bastardize your rx3 by putting a v8 or some other engine in it. If you want a fast v8, then go one up on your buddy Hemi and buy a colt and put a v8 in it. One of my buddies did that and the car was a daily driver and laid 9-10 second passes down the 1/4. Just my .02

i usually don't like rotaries myself, but just for the preservation and authenticity factor, rotaries are perfectly fine in the old school RX chassis.
if the old school RX cars weren't so rare to begin with, i would've gone with an all motor chevy LS7 (corvette z06) swap for the RX-4.
but in the end of the day, it's still each to their own.

It's definetely not a cheap powerplant to make reliable. You have to be willing to spend some money to do it right. I don't know Doc's mechanic-tuning abilities, but it seems like he had more problems than he should have. Rotaries just don't blow up for no reason. And NOS is not a reliable means for any engine. Whatever he decides to do I wish him the best of luck.
