RX7 QUAD ROTOR 26B FD3S SHAKEDOWN AT TSUKUBA CIRCUIT
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Today was a good day. The first outing for the Scoot tuned, custom built Hiroshima screamer 26B powered FD3S RX7 at Tsukuba circuit and after just a handful of installation laps we managed a 59.875 second lap, which capped the day off beautifully.
The best thing about the result is that despite traffic and a slipping clutch, the car has MASSIVE potential and surely with the right setup and some more fine tuning and aero improvements, we can get into the 57's...
Which for the privateer, 600hp naturally aspirated rotary is a MASSIVE achievement.
More to come - so subscribe, comment and share with your friends!
2:11 RX-7 used smokescreen. Levin is confused.
pokemon reference
=D

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.
4 rotor + sequential gearbox = world peace
Lol
4 rotor + twin turbo = ....
AHahahahaha ... World Peace
@W W
Blah, boring…
Can’t wait to build mine 😎
So glad to see people still building out these cars, and thanks to Adam for filming and taking the time to edit the videos and share them on RUclips!
Sooo so sick, I'd take one of these builds over any Lambo / Ferrari / etc. any day... And props to that Levin for giving chase!
+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
1:23 onwards....... wow, that sounds so good!
That levin is good in the corners very late breaking!!
+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
Let me be the first to say....... HOLLLLLLLLLLLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT!
+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?
Can we just appreciate how that Levin was flying through those corners trying to keep up?
A little fine tuning and stickier tires and I can see this beauty making 55-57 sec lap times. Awesome stuff as always XD.
+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.
Good driving and a fantastic engine! The noise from the 4 rotary is out of this world, its incredible!
Cheers mate!
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.
Busting the Tsukuba minute on the Shakedown pretty damn impressive, Pro-Staff time here we come!
1:55 the alternate ending of Initial D
Itsuki looses to the FD
pretty sure itsukis ae85 was a hatch though :P
This beast says "screw you:" to emissions standards.
thank for this amazing video. Sounds like a symphony.
+That Guy There You're welcome!
Under the one minute mark for a shakedown is fairly impressive
ホントに…
心の底に響く 神サウンド…
夢叶って 羨ましい限りです!
This is why the rotary will always be in my heart
I didnt look at the title before opening this video, and was so confused why he was driving this car on this circuit, thinking its more like a shakedown...... Now i feel dumb.
Awesome car, so much power for a car weighing just over a tonne!
Huge respect for putting together such an awesome track weapon! I love RX7's and 3/4 rotor engines. Looking forward to seeing more videos :D Subscribed.
Watching this instead of doing my work in class but its worth it
Same
Should see what kind of lap time tsuchiya could put down in this :)
beyondthelol 58 secs probably
Damn. That car is HOT. Love it!!
--Zoom-Zoom!!
Purple people Eater it's a reference to mazda's older slogan.
RX7 special attack: smoke screen
if they could make a rotary NOT burn a gallon of oil every downshift that'd be great lol
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
So many goosebumps listening to that thing go! Right on.
This is a motorbike! Absolutely crazy :D
Wailing and Screaming Engine note
Popping exhaust sound
Straight cut whining transmission
Flame bursting (fuel cut or Engine cut i supposed)
4 rotor 26B ( late or early 13b rotors ?)
its awesome
and its
Naturally Aspirated
what more do you want?
Having one i suppose.....
*Le checks wallet*
*Lie down*
*Cry*
*Cry A lot*
+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
Koseki's self-realization is amazing
Thank you for a wonderful video!
Im so glad to see not every 26b is getting thrashed and destroyed. I can tell this guy treats his car like a child
+John Sullivan He loves the beast for sure.
I remember the feature Super Street did on this car last year, the car has only gotten sexier since then! My god, that sound :D
I never knew the hype until I see videos like this...it's a god car.
Oh my goodness...stinkin' incredible! 😲
I sometimes put this on my speakers and do stuff around the house. Just because the sound in so gorgeous.
jeezzz chrisss that sound...its music to my ears
spinning doritos for an engine and a sequential transmission .... sounds cool
FD3S is known to be well balanced but fucking sub 1 minute at Tsukuba. GOD DAMN!!!
i heard 3 and 4 rotors throw off the balance a bit, but still amazing.
That sequential 👌🏻👌🏻
Wow this car has changed a lot from the last time we saw it, can’t say I’m a fan but hey
I love the sound
+0N3 Me too :D
+Adam Zillin hi what is the cars max rpm?
+cameron mckinely It's OVER 9000!!!!
I watched this soooooo many times
Love to see more videos on this car
Oh the sound of the RX-7 Love It so much
Love it. You're a badass and your car looks like such a nice track car. I am jealous.
Beautiful ! The nose...💛
Any chance there is video captured of the engine rebuilds required between laps 3 & 4 and 9 & 10?
I KID, I KID. That thing sounds maniacal.
Rotary engines wear less than piston engines when properly maintained
i love how the rx7 spits fire after every shift xD
love the way the rear view mirror is mounted
Thank you dear Japan ....just..thank you
Could you imagine the amount of money the fuel companies would make if the world bought rx7s
OMG THAT DOWNSHIFT SOUND THO 😵
Love this CAR!
Are we just gonna ignore the mini in the thumbnail? Ithat little blue mini looks just as cool as the RX-7
Look how much the gear shift is moving! That tells you how much BHP is pushed at the Flywheel!
Such a project !!! Congrats!! 1 lap = 10 liters of oil :D
That AE86 was a madlad , he would have won in a downhill race
Reminds me of someone ...
Light them up Brother! Zoom zoom !
it dosent get more badass then a real life NA FD four rotor tearing apart tsukuba circuit
2:25 Takumi might be behind the wheel of that 86 catching up through the corners :)
Agent Smith Nah, Takumi doesn't know how to grip-style. ;)
Fav track in the world !!!
Man that's one hell of a kazoo
LOL
Low RPMs sound like a whoopie cushion, but then he finds a straightaway and GOD DAMN!
600HP for N/A is amazing! Thats why rotary is such a great engine. Those sounds brought me goosebumps :D What gearbox does this FD have?
+Nisqaa It's a Quaife 6 speed sequential
thanks for the kind words!
amazing vídeo, one of the best í've seen.
+Rubén Valente Wow, thanks!
Amazing sound
I wish I could be in the driver seat 💖👍
+julio.g nomzuno Me too! I'm still hassling him for a stint. :)
if i owned that car, i wouldnt let anyone else touch it either haha
I would like to sit on the passenger floor
rotaries are the two strokes of the car world
that mini in the top left has come a long way
waited so long to see the beast in action! !
+ThreeWrap Sorry! Been super busy but the timing (and conditions) were perfect for this.
It sounds like a pod racer lol. If I had this car, I would downshift next to prius' all day!
like me driving to the pub
+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
finally some more car girls!
THIS IS BETTER THAN PORN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^
I fu**ing love this Car 😱😍
I was hoping to hear some passes but still very nice !
+9freelandk It wont be the last time we shoot video of it, that's for sure!
You got a dragon in the tailpipe there bud
simply amazing......
Those seatbelts look almost dangerously loose, you could break a collar bone in a big shunt with the belts like that.
chi chi driving good. i love this
600hp NA rotary? Sign me up!
Is there a blog or article on this beast?
wow!!!
I think boosted this 4 rotor can reach 1200+ hp but the clean sound of that NA motor is undeniable
This car is SCREAMING
Well I think you have a new subscriber for life

People love to shit on the Prius, but its not built for performance.... It gets awesome fuel economy and is great for daily commuting. That said, I'll take an AE82 or AE86 all day, or a 1st gen Miata or RX7
madjimms A Porsche 918 and a BMW I8 have better fuel efficiency than the pruis.
it's not the same price haha
Ameer Ramchand Prius owners do not care about racing of driving as fast as they can.
Working an EDM track using samples from this. Will be in touch when it's done.
I just came twice !
H3ntairican ...
GOOOOD..
Rotary may not the best engine configuration in motorsports. But it give a real deal
What a holy noise!
Wow, very nice. Is it just me or does it sound like there's a slight misfire on one rotor?
Just sounds like its breaking down slightly under load.
yeah sounds "dirty" sometimes, maybe its the turbo lag
+Zyo Pino Theres no Turbo.... !
+TheS1PikesPeak LOL!!! Turbo lag!!! XD
+Callum Macleod I hear it too, it's like a skipping and breaking up on load. Maybe needs some more tuning, would be curious to see Air-Fuel ratio during the run.
I realize it's a Scoot build, but it sounds like it has fouled plugs and it definitely looks to be running a bit richer than it should.
when an rx7 sounds like a f1 car you should be proud
RX7: STAND BACK!!! I HAD CHILI!!! *farts flames*
Other cars: O_o
Bustahnut 👍
Amazing...
26b fd3s..best fucking noise in the whole fucking wide world!!!
SO MUCH FIRE! ME WANT!
Nice skillful driver
it unnerved me watching him look at the tach more than the track in the beginning, i think i get it though
as a rotary guy in heart, it hurts hearing it break up on power. but sounds good still.
Nice legs! That ae86 was good on the tight section tho.
Would love to see the comparison with Mad Mikes FD and this one.
1:21 holy mother of god!!
