I'm pretty sure everybody is going to enjoy it a lot less if that guy has a kid sticking out of his grill because he was doing 80 through the pits. I love your channel, but I feel like you should have regulated on him right there.
Same, i cringed so hard & using the cringe is cringe. I thought he was just a rich dude that didn't know what he was doing, just smashing the gas like in the car meet exits
@@TheycallmeRpCratchet Agreed. I think I wrote it somewhere below, but I suspect it was however he routed the exhaust too (I guessed two in one's just because that'd be logical) for the side exits, amplifying that dual 13B sound instead of the maniacal revving Mazzei-esque one most people associate with a 4 rotor.
Nothing to do with the turbos and it’s inability to rev . It comes down to the two extra rotors creating more contact on the housing and the stat gears can be modified to rev higher .
idk what he did, but this is the furthest away you could make a 4 rotor sound from the 787b, sound like a 2 rotor if it had a bit more torque, also speeding trough a crowded parking lot is reckless
If I remember correctly the r26b 4 rotor has a different degrees on some of the lobes giving it that unque sound. This definitely sounds like it's just using a "2 rotor style" eshaft. It just sounds off
Probably has something to do with it being twin turbo. Guessing all four exhaust runners aren't connected so it's basically 2x 13b turbo's with their own exhaust.
@@BrianCrofoot Was about to mention that. Mazzei's car (former anyway, sold it! 😢) sounds like genuine sex-on-wheels 4-rotor race car. Edit: I bet it's the separated side exit exhausts, running two-into-ones per side most likely so the pulses mimic the note of the 13Bs.
Right while other guys are miles above him he thinks some fancy 10K wiring job is going to make his car actually raceable. ( hey rob these problems are all already solved you just wont listen)
@@FrequencyOfThought haha yeah that wiring is actually making my car raceable. Flat shifting and so on. Can’t really go down to the awd 4 rotor story and buy anything for my car 😂 I’m doing my best without coming from money or an automotive background
Let me start with it’s his and he can do it however he likes. I think what throws me a bit with the front is the integration of squared off, straight edges on a body that’s normally all curves. I like his front end, but it’s hard for me to wrap my head around modifying an FD with something from an era where the design language was totally different. For comparison, imagine a C110 or C210 Skyline front end on an R33 Skyline. Yeah the lineage aligns, but the design language of the two eras seem odd on one car.🤷🏾♂️
The RX-3 nose job was first done by "Mad Mike" Whiddett from New Zealand. I personally think it's awesome, but I understand it's not to everyone's tastes. If you like rotary, you'll love Mike.
I'm a Dahm fan as much as the next person, but this one is much cleaner, for now. One big difference is that Rob is doing almost everything himself and this guy bought a lot of fully built stuff(mainly the engine). Both are picking parts from various other vehicles to make things work, but Rob is going further into those components to make them better. Though this guy might've but i don't know because i don't know if he even has videos of the build process. They are 2 very different beasts that are being built in very different mindsets, so they can't really be compared. But they are both amazing
My favorite part is actually the front end swap. Also, the only way this could get any cooler performance wise is if it was on compound turbos instead of twins.
When I saw that car parked this year at 2K my jaw dropped to the floor. That thing is absolutely insane. I spoke it aloud, this is the baddest car here this year by far.
The rx3 front, sound, forward facing exhaust isn’t for me, but I appreciate the quality of the build. David Mazzei is the man and would definitely want him involved with any rotary build. How can we get Mazzei to hook up with Rob now lol.

TRC to be honest I love Rob Dahm 4 rotary sound. The 4 rotary on this one is to harsh that it’s hard to hear the rotary sound. Mazzei 4 rotary also sound good you can hear the rotary. I recommend to hear the sounds like 40 time over and over so that you will understand.

Couldn’t have picked a worse spot to smash the gas over and over
Slightly off exhaust note aside, this guy knows every nut, bolt and subsystem of this car. That's fantastic dedication to a build!
Agreed, the car does not sound as good as it could.
It doesn't rev high enough because of turbos
I’m thinking this is because of how the exhaust is plumbed it could sound better but still a badass car.
@@TheycallmeRpCratchet Agreed.

Bruh ppl can hear it coming
@@Gr4yota They shouldn’t have to
They had people clear them hence the blokes on Golf carts, there's a short of it
This thing is louder than a mexican's Honda.
It has a very unique sound, not so F1 sounding like other builds. I love it.
that's what i'm saying, it's raw and suits that rx3 front
Pretty smart decision not going for a second ride along hauling a$$ through the pits super clean car nice build though.
One of favorite builds ever. So happy to see it get this far.

Awesome car for sure but that front end makes it look odd as hell.
It’s naturally such a beautiful car. He built it the way likes it, I think it hideous and tasteless. Front doesn’t match the lines of the back. 🤷♂️

Had to watch this for a second and third time, rotary’s are so bad ass.
That front end is beautiful. I really like how he managed the AWD.
id love to hear the sound of multiple four rotors at speed on the track. Even if it was just hot laps I'd bet the sound would be Symphonic
I hate the color red, but this is the most amazing RX-7 I have seen. 1,200 horsepower and all wheel.
Much respect! I love the car, doing all your own work is the way to go.
It's the driving through the pits sound for me 👍🏼
Man. Truly the dream to be so stoked about my own creation that I forget I’m ripping through the P I T S 🤣 beautiful car regardless
