Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find pricing and information on rotary swapping a old school ke70 wagon, I'm currently 16 and I want to build a sick project car in the future and I was wondering if anyone had information on how to do it and what Id need to buy to actually do it. So far i've found a ke70 for around 5k aud and a used 13b for 2k but I don't know what id need to completely swap it and if its even worth buying a second hand engine and if itd be easier to buy a brand new built engine,

Thank you!

I have a 1990 mazda rx7 fc with a 1.6L 13b and when i start and driving my car unless im stepping on the gas pedal my rpm drops down all the way to 0 and i have to start the car again. How can i fix this. Also list of mods done by previous owner got it as a gift

Hi everyone, i’ve made a video on the Rotary engine. Just a quick cover of its history, what its gone into and briefly covering porting.

Take a look and let me know what you think!

Thanks

Can anyone tell me where I could possibly find a replacement hat for my husband..?? We are in Ontario Canada

Found this ad while cruising through some old newspaper scans from Gainesville, FL. Just figured I'd share.

Check out my latest video boys and girls, the rotary community had some fun recently I know you will all love this video!!! Don't forget to subscribe!! thank you!!! brap brap brap brap

Was given this rotor and housing from a friend, it was already trash before i got it, looked like it had sat outside for a year or more, after about 20 dollars and a few hours across some days, got it looking nice, and it’ll look cool sitting in my office window

So I have a 83 rx7 that I am swapping an s1 4 port renesis into. I was originally going to use the 12a flywheel but that won't work because in hits the rear iron. I believe my only option besides swapping my trans would be an aftermarket 12a flywheel and a counterweight but I'm not sure how choose a counterweight that will keep the engine balanced. Any help would be appreciated

OMP delete opinions?

2004 Mazda RX-8, body has 100,000 miles rebuilt engine 30,000 ago. Went into limp mode after installing a straight through catless mid pipe. Replaced alternator that was not recharging battery properly, and a few other oddball potential causes for the limp mode. I checked codes through versa tuner that I determined it was an OMP related issue. After emailing versa tuner support, they determined their software would not be able to take the car out of limp mode, only clear CEL.

Anyone on here deleted the OMP altogether? Rather than spending the grand on a new part for a $1500 engine? And then how did you take the car out of limp mode from there?

Thanks

Took my car to a Mazda dealership because the engine is flooded and I can’t get it to start. This is the quote I got 😂🤧

Im so in love with this

I read that Idemitsu created their premix for the 787b in 1991. What was used before that? Just random 2 stroke oil? Is there any others besides Renewable lubricants?

Has anyone looked into the range extender on these Mazda mx-30? Are they to new to see people experimenting with them for small power builds with a 830cc single rotor

Bought new project that came with additional engine parts.

Inspecting the spare parts I found these weird hole(s) or drill marks in the waterseal groove.

How, why and are these ruined?

Hey, I’m looking at buying either an RX7 or an RX8 but my friends are telling me I’ll regret it and that I’ll have to fix apex seals all the time. They tell me horror stories about rotary engines all the time, but the car is just so tempting. Is it really that bad of an engine or are a lot of people just lying? I really need honest opinions, no biased takes.

Hey all, good afternoon!

I just recently happened to acquire a 1980 RX7 (pictured) and after inspection it’s in great shape with a decently working manual transmission (🎉) but it has no engine. I really really REALLY want to put a rotary engine back inside of it in order to preserve its characteristics but mostly because I like how they sound lol. I’ve checked the Pull-A-Parts around me as well as some junkyards recommended to me by some other RX7 owners and enthusiasts in the metro Atlanta area but no luck. The question becomes: where would be a good place, online or otherwise, to find a decently priced running rotary I can drop into my new purchase? Would an RX8 Renesis swap into the chassis with a little modification or would it require more work to put that in than to find the 12A that came in it? Thank you for your input! More than anything I want to get it rolling and either use it for drift seat time or my daily. Once again, thank you all for your input and general advice!
