actually that car makes 590hp at 8500rpm. All motor, no turbo, just 2.6 liters of rotary power!

I have the issue of the New Zealand magazing "Performace Car" that that FD was featured in last year.

Ive seen and heard this car in person, it is fantastic. Amazing sound.
There is also a DVD series on the way that will show you how to build one relatively easily.

The shaft for these looks huge

4-rotor rotary's where only in the 787B in LeMans..

Never mass-produced, to my sadness.

I was the one that posted that video on Streetfire a long time ago. When I first found out about that site, I accurately predicted that it would blow up, and posted more than a dozen RX-7 videos before there was even a Mazda category. Since then, the site has grown a lot, and there is now almost 20 pages of rotary. I am glad that it became a high quality site with lots of entertaining videos, we have to make sure that the rotary is well represented among all the other growing categories.
