RX7 QUAD ROTOR 26B FD3S SHAKEDOWN AT TSUKUBA CIRCUIT 

pokemon reference

=D

Howzer Tech á

No... It's just wankel... :)

From my understanding, it is because there is a hot and cold side. So at a certain temperature a slight warping allows for oil seepage, or something like that.

Lol

4 rotor + twin turbo = ....

AHahahahaha ... World Peace

@W W Blah, boring…

Can’t wait to build mine 😎

+beobe99 The Levin was at max capacity.. the FD was at about 30%...

Most likely true, but still give props to the Levin for kicking and screaming at 100% - he tried :)

The little Levin that could lol it was dope tho

That Levin is gay compared to this Rx7

+mrjace3 I noticed that. It was able to keep up in the corners, but that straight came up, it was bye bye ae86.

that's some takumi shit

it's understeering tho

mrjace3 yeah. The levin impressed me more that the driving of the fd. A third of the power and still kept up. Tscuba is a technical track though. Anywhere else the levin would struggle.

Clearly he has grip issues. 59 is a fast time but once they figure out the tyre and geometry for the car this will be a blisteringly fast car

pretty sure itsukis ae85 was a hatch though :P

Meh... driving not so much. The AE86 was keeping up just fine untill the straight... And thats with shitbox suspension. I wouldn't be proud if I was driving the fd....

Flyingdutchy33 shut the fuck up internet expert.

Shona shut the fuck up internet troll

Tell me again how u know the setup of the AE86?

Doesnt matter wheter one knows the setup of the AE86. The FD should've been all over it on this track. It's faster with shitbox suspension. You do know what shitbox suspension is, right? Oh wait, I'm guessing you don't. Well let me put it this way, the opposite of shitbox suspension is full aluminium double wishbone suspension (which the FD has). Shitbox suspension is mcpherson struts up front. Come on, everybody knows this shit except for you. Now, I hate to go into shit talking, but with all these millenials commenting on stuff they know absolutely jack shit about, it's kind of hard not to. I apologize regardless if I hurt your wittle feelings.

+Seige CJ You and many others besides :)

+Adam Zillin Hey no cutting in line!!! HOLY SHIT!

+Brandon Nesbitt that weld job on that integrated roll cage is phenomenal!

Brandon Nesbitt, I'm glad you saw that. I'm watching it now instead of the car XD

What does pretty welds got to do with functionality?

+TheEquivalentXchange You're spot on. We're aiming for 56's

+Adam Zillin that's silly fast.

+Adam Zillin Any specific reason it was breaking up? Worn spark plugs or pig rich mixture causing that nasty misfire perhaps?

+NLRevZ We diagnosed a spark issue and it has been corrected.

+That Guy There You're welcome!

beyondthelol 58 secs probably

Purple people Eater it's a reference to mazda's older slogan.

Same

+ThreeWrap Sorry! Been super busy but the timing (and conditions) were perfect for this.

+John henry Chua *try not to cry

explain to me how fuel cut can end up in flames...really i want to understand what was burned and created that flame...

looks like something to do with timing retardation... I'm not educated in these things but I'm assuming it's a combination of timing the exhaust to occur before the fuel is burned, and then the heated exhaust pipe causing it to ignite...

Ignition cut not fuel cut but yeah

Aryzen Inniriea it’s because rotary engines leave a lot of unburned fuel in the combustion chamber which then gets forced out of the exhaust port

+Rubén Valente Wow, thanks!

i heard 3 and 4 rotors throw off the balance a bit, but still amazing.

Rotary engines wear less than piston engines when properly maintained

well too bad that it's about 1l for 2000 km's wich is still a lot, but just listen to it

+The Saturn Life that's how it's works. there's no other way to do it. The oil you see is mainly the mixture oil and not the proper engine one

+ALIENdrifter66 I'm sure someone will figure out something.

Ali Ahadi Have they figured out how not to burn oil in 2 strokes... yes, changing to 4 strokes. How can you lube the internals of the rotor without burning oil when it has to get where the fuel is?? It just isn't fisically posible

ALIENdrifter66 What? 2-stoke engine came after four-stroke engines. In any case you make it sound like rotary engines have been around forever, the first prototype was in 1957, that's after WWII. While a 4 stroke engine had a working model in the mid 1800's, it's a bit unfair to think that many advancements can really be made in any time soon when it's taken so long for piston engines to achieve what they can now. I mean even Atkinson cycle is only really starting to be utilized and that was also developed in the 1800's

+0N3 Me too :D

+Adam Zillin hi what is the cars max rpm?

+cameron mckinely It's OVER 9000!!!!

+John Sullivan He loves the beast for sure.

Agent Smith Nah, Takumi doesn't know how to grip-style. ;)

LOL

+Nisqaa It's a Quaife 6 speed sequential thanks for the kind words!

+9freelandk It wont be the last time we shoot video of it, that's for sure!

+Simon Bowen key word "to" the pub

+Brad Jordan lol yeah.. coming home a different story. would def need the safety gear and cage!

Hope you're not driving like that coming back from the pub
