What happens when you apply forced induction to an lsx motor? lets see(probably nothing impressive).

Now do you want to STFU? Or do you want me to keep posting more rotary rx7 vids that waste your LS1rx7's.

Whats it say in the title of that video? Fastest pass at drag week?
Oh i forgot to mention, he drove the car to the track.

I too have much respect for piston engines and have owned and raced them too, but to throw one in a japanese car just makes me cringe. Bottom line if you like the LS1 then go buy a corvette or camaro. If you like rotaries than buy an RX. If you like that kind of mixed matched **** then go open a "Mutt" car forum somewhere.
Do people with V8 rx-7s make you sad? awww i'm soweee.

there were 171,897 rotary disasters built from 86-92(source: http://www.mazdamark.com/about_the_fc.htm). almost 1/4 million. Thats not very rare. And if its so rare and treasured, i'd be more worried about these rotary enthusiast: https://www.rx7club.com/west-rx-7-forum-193/lol-pure-awesome-738037/page2/ Ruining your precious Rotarys. You think this guy really takes care of his rotary?

(wow, mad tyte Residential Drifting!!)

Here is a pretty impressive Drag Rotary

If its a rotary site, why is there an Other Engine Conversion? is that section all about putting the rotary in other vehicals? Wouldnt that be Other Vehical Conversion section?

Your talking about one little sub-section vs the huge 3rd, 2nd and 1st gen sections.


there arn't a 12a, 13b, 13bre, 13brew, etc.. sections

Continued:

As for some of the people bitching about V8 guys RUINING the Rx7. A much larger percentage of V8 Rx7 owners compared to rotary rx7 owners, care about their cars a lot more. and bring them to a much better restoration.
here is mine for example:
Before(BLOWN N/A AUTOMATIC ROTARY; Zero rwhp):

After(ls1/T56 356rwhp):

And its still not done. Far from it actually. this is just the tip of the Iceberg baby. I'm going to make it way cleaner. and way nicer than it is. But anyone that really knows my car, knows it isnt the gem that it looks like in pictures. i got an entire new front end this weekend just waiting to go on.

Poor cars, I'd rather see them rust away than be ruined..
Oh well, if some people enjoy ripping out the one single thing that makes these cars unique and valued and converting them to just another mundane car, more power to them I guess.
Probably have better luck with some other american turd-car like a neon or probe or dodge stealth or something.

Better a rotard than a Gutless Motor owner, I'd wager.
Anyway, I said what I wanted to.
I'll leave you guys to your thread.

I'll only comment on the above because all the other stuff you wrote was just plain stupid and not even worth rebuting.

First off, you are comparing a v8 to a 1.3liter rotary. The 1.3 rotary is comparable to a large 4 cylinder to a small 6 cylinder. But even then your vids only show 1000hp out of a twin turbo v8.... That's pretty sad when the 13b single turbo has put out over 1000hp.

And your 8.2 second v8 rx7 does not have stock chassis. That car is tubbed dumb *** with a diff chassis and rearend for sure. The vid I posted of the rx7 with the 13bt has complete stock chassis and stock trans. So keep looking on the internet some more. So far you have an engine that is over 4 times the displacement of the 13b and is getting spanked. Very impressive...

Now now now. My view still remains.

I said I admire the ingenuity, skill, and workanship behind putting a LS1 in an RX7 and making it look like it always was there. This includes Brismo7's work and a few others I've seen.

This no different than I admire the skill and workmanship in putting a Wankle in, say, a VW. My favorite is a Wankle powered old school Porche that was put together at Rotary Reliability and Racing. That was seriously cool.

Before I saw that, my (now second) favorite was when Mazdatrix created a Miata sporting a Turbo Wankle. I still wish Mazda would find the wisdom in making that an actual production item as I'd be first in line to buy one.

But I want to be clear. I did NOT say I'm changing my view on Oxymoronized RX7's. No, no, no, no. Uh Uh.

My signature will forever reflect my view on this subject.
