i would have loved to see him drop the clutch at 9k, bald tires, and watched the tranny and clutch and drivetrain twist up like a twizzler

 

They say that about VW engines too, about how tough they are.
My 1.8 8v waterlocked while I was driving through a really deep puddle.
I got it started again but there was water in the crankcase. It blew a conrod going down the highway 2 minutes later. It was only 4,000 RPM, not even full throttle. Blew a giant coke can sized hole in the block.

 

Wow, that makes me sick. I would have paid that guy cash not to blow it up. ******* hooligans. Thats what this generation is, ******* hooligans.

 

^owned

OMGWTFBBQMSG! Blowding up rotesseries takes l33t skillz! I have been the 0wned!

 

I thought this video was awesome. The rednecks did it in the name of science; now people can see how bulletproof a 13B really is. THe only reason it stopped is they left teh coolant cap off. And it answers the question 'what will happen if i constantly redline my rotary?' for everybody, that way nobody has to try this ever again...

 

Now the next question should be, how long does it take to blow up a 12a??

Any guesses?

 

how about a 13b-rew

 

that's just stupid, i've seen piston engines last longer with the coolant cap off while redlining, though they don't rev as high...


it proves nothing except that you can blow up an engine regardless of its origins.

 

i've taken my stock 12a to well past 8,000 under 16lbs of boost only to do a burnout right after that i imagine it would do just as well in that same scenario. BLACKBABYJESUS'S UNITE!!!

 

They must be americans........

brilliant observation there

 

damn.... i really dont know what to say... Though like everyone said, makes me feel better about mine...

I Figgured that the seals wouldnt be able to track the sides of the housings at that speed for long... and also(this has been said amillion times...) HEAT is the Number One Killer Of Your Rotary Engines!!! Im caught between "YOU #%$@ING RETARDS" and glad they did it... Anyone that tells me that rotarys suck and they blow easy, Im showing them that...
As much BS we get about our Apex Seals blowing from Boinger Lovers(Putting on Flame Retardant Suit)... this proves alot, RX7s can be relable DEPENDING on how the are treated... He put that thing through the worst hell you can... and it kept running on one rotor for a good bit...

I DONT CARE WHAT ANYONE THINKS!!! ROTARYS ARE THE ****!!!

 

like everyone says, i feel better about mine now. now someone needs to post a link to that civic, id love to see a civic go through some sort of hell, besides the one i give em

 

asdf

 

i was waiting for a fireball to shoot out of the exhaust and light up the garage......
would have been even better to watch then.

 

i agree, btw, did anyone notice the engine beside the car close to the garage?

 

kill them!!!!!!!!!!! lol

 

Hey if I had the money I would see how many cars I could blow up...only I would use rockets on honda's

 

NICE!!!!!!! RPGs and Granades....... I hate those freakin Riceburners

 

anybody have a good link to the vid? It is dead and I am trying to show a friend...

 

i love rx7's and i liked that video. it was his car he can do what he wants.
now if he set it on fire just to watch it burn is another story

thanks, that one will serve my purposes, but I was thinking of the one that was a side shot and you watched the bumper catch on fire (and I didnt think they wussed out and backed off)
