The point is... There is a VERY small percentage that have a clue. There is a MUCH larger percentage that do Not. They are the ones that respond most often with the BS peanut gallery answers. They blur the reality of what is possible.

You want a 9 Second car?? You better have a LARGE bank account to get there. You will not get to the 9s with a RX by wishing and reading the forum. Reading the forum, and all the other forums out there will head you in the right direction, but there are two ways to get to the 9s.
1. Cubic Dollars. Pay someone to build you a 9 second RX. ChaChing.
2. Cubic Dollars+Time. Build yourself Several engines worth of experience at LEAST. After the first few engines you will learn from your mistakes, and learn where you can make improvements.. and will learn how to setup the car. EVENTUALLY with enough time you will make the 9s on your own. But it wont happen with the first car.

The problem here on the forum.. that exists on ANY forum.. is the 15 year olds reading ****.. and rattling off a bunch of parts assuming it will make power... cause thier friends unckle's cousins best friend read on here abvout someone who had a 900 HP 10A. N/A. And they will argue the point forever.

How many times have you been to a car gathering and had someone come up to you and start rattling off how they know someone who has a 1000HP 3 rotor?
How many people have actually TOUCHED a 3-rotor on this forum???? Let alone worked on one?? You could prolly count it in the 50s as far as working on em.

Anyhow... I got distracted..
The thread has been derailed soooo badly..
There ARE 900 HP rotaries out there. BUT.. there are prolly only enough to count on two hands. The odds this guy has one is VERY VERY slim. Not impossible.. but unlikely.

And if you spend a TON of time reading on here you will eventually filter out the BS. If you are sharp enough to. And eventually you will be able to assist on these type of things. Too many THINK they are sharp enough by repeating what they read. That does more harm than good often if they have never done any of it.
Some times it is good info. You have to filter it.

Now getting pissy cause people make a this is a retarded post replys?? Get over yourself. MANY posts are total BS posts and deserver all the flaming they get. Getting defensive is retarded. Like I am being for bothering to get baited and reply

OK going to work now LOL... I am feeling retarded for arguing on the net over something so stupid.

 

no im not getting pissy or anything im just saying just tell them str8 up and end the post cuz this is taking up alot of room in the forum and when u do a search some of these things pop up because of the words you say in the post. But to tell you something there is an easy way to get into the nines aon a 2 rotor, because think of it like this all the supras run nines like crazy correct, now remember adam saruwatari he was giving pasily the run for his money because his supra would never beat adam, now adam had that car run 8.9 as a street car and this was back in 98 99 i think. let these kids learn and dont diss them cuz if they are interested in it at this age imagine what they can do when they get our age or older, maybe have 8 second 13 street cars....lol who knows but lets end this battle. cuz we have stuburn people here and some people who dont mind to teach instead of getting angry

 

Wow, now THAT is a run on sentence. And Supras don't run 9's like crazy... there's an old saying about Supras, what does a 900 HP Supra run in the 1/4? Same time as a 500 HP Supra. They have the same IRS traction issues we 7 owners have. Good for cornering, bad for launching. If you think that 9s are easy my friend, wow, optimism is a wonderful thing. Especially if you want a car that's streetable.

 

O trust me supras are easy to get into the 9s I built one that is almost in the 8s and its still a street car weighing 3500 pounds. Our best time is 9.20 at 157 with a 1.7 short time. And in the same car when we had a stock block we went 9.43 going against john sephard that *** we always getting at him... good guy tho, but n e ways its easy trust me. sorry about the run on...lolRx7 have better launch then supras tho. I know many guys that have 9 second supras. more then i can count a rotary, but thats not the point

 

There are not very many supras running 9s so not quite sure where you are getting your information from???

 

The internet offers a warped sence of reality, it makes people feel like 9 second cars are common place cause you hear someone talking about it all the time. This is one of the main reasons that forum members are never happy with thier car, its cause we all feed off of eachother and nothing ever seems "crazy". When you one the forum 10's seems common place, eh who cares about 10's thats nothing thats everyday stuff......but in reality its not. Not many people car really shake off 10 second runs time and time again in a pure street car setup. As for the 9's, well dont get your hopes up to high. Anything is possible but its very unlikely. What good street car transmission you going to run?

Anyway, as for this dumbass kid talking **** about his 950hp 20B with a V mount.....Ask him this....."How the hell did he fit a V mount large enough to flow 1800+cfm of air in front of a 20B?". A V mount barely fits in front of a 13B and the ones that do arent large enough to flow 1800+cfm.

your remark about the v mount is correct now how hard is it for someone to just tell him that then to say, stupid **** like you also just "ask that dumbass" we dont need that **** here. If you just want people that knows everything ask the administrator to make a test for people to be who wants to come in the this forum. If you would of just told him str8 point blank the topic would be over, but now ya just bring a bunch of other jackasses to the post. just LET IT BE AND LET THEM LEARN. do you se ito or any of the good rotary builders in here putting people down no, so then why you. Just drop the convo im done this forum is gunna be full of hicks.

Well the Tranny that im planning to use is a Turbo 350 transmission 3 speed

and at the last supra meet i could name at least 9 supras that was in the 9s from what i saw, and to me thats alot

 

Welp.. unsubscribing this thread...... and on that note.. all i gotta say is..

Turbo 350? I'd think powerglide, with the power you're looking at. Interesting regardless.
