Awesome.
I didn't realize Anniversary Racing Factory was still around.
The PPRE 6-rotored RX-4 makes 800hp, it'll be really interesting if they can make 1000.

do you think he was referring to Iannetti apex seals when carbon was stated? Not sure if that’s just a katakana loan word reference over there or not?

Ianetti makes carbon seals? Shows how out of touch I am, I just checked and didn't know Mazda carbon seals were NLA.

A little later after that he mentions they make their own and have orders from NZ and Australia.

i'm glad i checked this out. i've never heard of them (least, i don't remember hearing of them), but i like him. he seems cool.

he's got a nice little stash there, too. that Rx-3 Wagon got me thinking about my brother's old car. if only we knew then ....

the 6 rotor looks like it's going to be nice.

I’ve seen Iannetti called carbon ceramic in the past is why I asked, but I must have forgotten that they did mention making them.

not really sure I’d choose old school carbon seals over them for an NA build like this, but even I’m nowhere near as old school as that guy. He almost seems too young still to be that old school, lol.
