I believe you can get spline-jointed eccentric shafts now, reduces apex seal spit-out at high revs. http://cp_www.tripod.com/rotary/pg03.htm Hurley engineering in the UK make 3, 4 and 6 rotor engines from standard Mazda 2 rotor parts

Should be awesome if all works out well which I think it will, they have made 380rwkw from a N/A 4 rotor in the past so with any luck they will make around 550rwkw for this one! not bad for a little 2.6's and 3.9's haha

my thoughts! egg beater on steroids! Personally hate the noise they make, like the looks of RX3's, maybe a lexus V8 powered one ;-). Got to respect the PAC performance guys though.
I remember my rotary days, rx808 conversion doing 3rd gear "fishtails" in the dry, after 1st and 2nd of course. We had a 13b monster bridgeport that back then was only surpassed by the PP, thing used to rock from side to side at the lights as it pulsed. Now I drive a family falcon sedan. How things changed. Rip it up OP

the 787 and the rx7 thats racing just sound like any other highly tuned race motor, at high rpm it doesnt really matter what the engine configuration is they all just whine. At low rpm they sound gutless as sh1t.
That thing is cool, I do like the sound of a dirty big diesel

yeh damn nice looking truck too, wonder how much power it makes. Still doesnt compare to a Merlin, that has to be the best sounding engine ever made, good old British engineering.No way you could ever get a rotor to roar like that.

Yeah no imagination making a 4 or 6 rotor engine to see what happens aye! but those guys that are into the amazing, modern, powerfull and exciting Morris engines that everyone still uses in many many cars are today are true inovators lol

LOL whatever man i dont hate rotarys, its an impressive design id like to own one myself but id try to make it as quiet and deep as possible cause i think they sound like sh1t. You are obviously a single minded rotor fanboy though so no point discussing it with you.
