That went way over my head I think. Another roturd goe to turd heaven. Buddy just zinged his last rotary. Just sent payment on a complete Samberg swap kit. Anyone here want a blown twin turbo 13B?

Yours is only exception :)

But the rest of the TURDbo renny builds do not deliver in that section.

Yeah, log, mine sucks pretty much 5 days a week for the last 2 1/2 years.
Especially when I hit triple digits straightening out a particular stretch of sweeping S curves on the interstate at 4:30 in the morning.
But then, I remember how gutless my 8 is, and I get so sad.:(

9krpmrx8 02-12-2015 09:04 PM

The tags are hilarious, :lol:

firecran 02-12-2015 09:20 PM

:lol2: yep

Brettus 02-12-2015 10:43 PM

LSXREX 02-12-2015 10:49 PM

That just means you need to replace your bald tires.

That doesn't make sense.
I guess HP & torque guys don't understand "straightening curves".
All about light to light I guess.

Btw, new Bridgestone Potenzas on it now.

Im aware of what it means. Hp and torque are mo betta for corners.

i dont know about that. riwwp has a bit of track time and turns down power for track use. as do most evo/sti track whores. the huge #s evo/sti type cars never see track time

I only added 2 of them :)


Definitely some good ones in there.

High hp cars are pretty much useless.

RIWWP 02-13-2015 02:09 PM

Yes, actually, they are.

200.mph 02-13-2015 02:09 PM

you like to argue your own points with yourself huh?

LSXREX 02-13-2015 08:28 PM

I'm not sure what the argument is about anymore. I wonder how many roturds were replaced today.

RIWWP 02-13-2015 08:55 PM

All of that piston up and down motion seems to be derailing LSXREX rather easily. We can keep it straight even spinning in circles. :suspect:

BigCajun 02-13-2015 09:16 PM

There's no argument.
Some deluded people with the ability to operate jacks and wrenches and their preconceived notions about the supposed inferiority of the rotary engine imagine they know how to improve on a finely tuned machine with decades of engineering behind it, and then try to convince people who know better that their piston powered pipe dreams are worth the time, money, and effort that they waste on them.

Who said this was an argument for just piston swaps? If you want to go fast then the Renesis has to come out one way or another.

Brettus 02-13-2015 09:30 PM

Suggestion: Why don't we have two separate forums? One for purebred sweet rotary goodness swaps and one for bastard craprastic pissedon rubbish swaps ... ?

RIWWP 02-13-2015 09:31 PM

Not really. Dumping a lot of weight will get you faster too.

How about replacing the interior, frame, and body with something weighing half as much? Effectively doubles your power without touching the motor.

And yes, it's doable :)

Someday we might have an active admin that can do that... :dunno:

It's on my radar if I ever make that step.
