Not really, but like most things it has been made to work. I think Rolls Royce made a diesel rotary (actually 2 wankel engines working together) using one rotary engine as a kind of supercharger to increase the compression ratio in the second rotary engine. You can imagine this is expensive and complex. The weak link…

Aftermarket ECU paired with a wideband O2 sensor. Get it tuned by a pro for increased power output and mileage. RX-7 guys report substantial mpg gains after doing this. Obviously works better if your car runs rich from the factory.

Plenty of cars come to mind, but there is something else about this question that bothers me: Haterism. I've been noticing a trend beginning in QOTD's where the question sometimes focuses on negativity towards other's rides rather than the celebration of all things awesome and fun relating to our beloved automobiles.…

I love rotary swaps as much as (probably much, much more than) the next guy. However, you could buy a decent SA/FB RX-7 *and* a nice NA FC RX-7 for 7 grand. Hell, a cherry GSL-SE sold for under $3k on Richmond CL this month. The kicker is that one wouldn't even have to pleasure people in alleys for parts when things…

Depends how you look at it... I say you were not worthy. :)

Riding out the merge lane and waiting until the last second to merge in. The reason it is so frustrating? It is a self propagating behavior; the lane that the person is avoiding is usually slow/stopped because of people waiting until the last minute to merge! Ugh...

I'm envisioning a resto/mod that preserves the current state of decay while having (relatively) sound mechanicals.

No fart can!? Well then, your downshifts must sound even lamer than I originally thought.

just spreadin the love, brother.

You sounds really cool; downshifting really loud with your fart can at college, scaring hipsters and such. But I have a suggestion that may actually make you even cooler. As someone who bikes and loves cars, I believe that you can drive a car in a "that bike also has the right of way and I could cause harm to the…

Autozam AZ-1. DOHC 12V Turbo I3. aaaaand gullwing doors.

87 Mazda RX-7 Turbo II. Fast, ugly, reliability issues... but so much charm.

It's like Braveheart except with cars. Can't understand a damn thing they say.

I'm thrilled that there is finally a basic, light and affordable RWD coupe being offered, but goddamn if that thing isn't ugly. dat fascia...

Geo Storm! Never driven one, but they always looked like they would be fun little cars.

The rotary engine.

I'm confused. How does 350 hp + 2800 pounds = slow?
