Actually, as long as you keep it in good condition and treat it right, a good rotary can have surprising fuel economy, reliability, and can last far longer than most would think
If anyone in the future says let's stop and go backwards and destroy our planet with wasteful oil, gas, and parts; i would see them as a lower form that had very little education. You know like the people today that look at Victorian and Early American industrial revolution and wish we could go back to those days. As cool as steam and coal engines are they are trash and always will be trash. Great historical information and education is enjoyed by me. Ignorance to not knowing the risks, challenges, and destruction those eras caused is not enjoyed by me. I pray my son looks back on old technology as a way to the future and not to stay stuck in the past. This is why I am a firm believer that humanity is devolving and not evolving. There is no way we live in today's age with all that we can do and we waste our time and energy on hobbies and making money.
Astle Truscott and why is that. Are you afraid to admit to yourself bigger engines produce more power more reliably? A 2jz at 1500hp is not reliable but a ls is. Both engines are reliable at 500hp but ls sounds better and produces morr torque.
How to drive a PP turbo quad rotor on the street? Route near gas stations. Expect to be pulled over. Straighten steering wheel before flooring it. Check that fire insurance is paid for. Have fun!!!
[Redacted] a hot 13B turbo does 12-14 mpg, this thing..... probably 7-10 mpg. But what a way to go! The sound, the fury, the 🔥...who cares about fuel economy?!
[Redacted] that is probably accurate....a two rotor is equivalent to a 350 ci small block in terms of the amount of air it can move, double that with the 4 rotor, so matching the fuel requirements of a 700ci V8. Atkins Rotary is one of the best sources of info on these things ( that's where I got the comparison from ). The peripheral port is the most radical configuration. If this engine had a much milder port configuration and was geared right with proper tuning, it might get closer to 15 mpg. But then again, that's speculation
NEWYORK BOSS nah dom was always a muscle guy. From the first movie he had the charger in his shed, he drove an rx7 in the first movie but in the later ones he starts driving muscle cars more often (Chevy chevelle plymouth gtx Dodge Challenger Dodge Charger etc etc)
S130 Yes, I know, and obviously I got the point too, but I'm just saying, to avoid future confusion, just say "Vette", it was just a slight correction, not trying to take away from your comment
Maxsation2481 Probably intentional through extreme tuning, probably spark cut and fuel igniting in the Downpipe/turbo elbow of the exhaust instead of the the combustion chamber, rather than a backfiring problem
That whine from the dog box trans... So utterly racecar. Plus like everyone has said it sounds just like the 787b, which to me, is truly one of the best sounding racecars ever made. Beautiful build, beautiful car. Hats off to you my friend.
Just when I think it can't turn anymore rpms, it does. The sounds coming from this cabin, the turbo, exhaust, drivetrain, it sounds like 2 unicorns making love!!
The way you pre flight your car is pretty awesome when you were putting your hand on everything you reminded me of navy pilots pre flight checking the various panels of their aircraft. Such attention to detail, you really know your stuff man.
FlyingTurtle you would be suprised how different sounds can be with different styles/designs of exhaust manifolds. The manifold on this car is a replica design of the one off the r26b rotory i believe.
absolutely flawless build. You know you've built it right, when despite having a tonne of switches and the complicated fuel and ignition systems, it fires up quickly and promptly on the first go.
Chris McConnell that's not my point, do you know what anti lag is? Fucks your turbo, do you know what keybanging is? Fucks your exhaust can sometimes blow holes in your muffler n shit. they both spit flames/backfire. But their damaging your car. That's why I said it was a stupid statement because he didn't elaborate what he meant
I don't know how to feel about dahm's cars after seeing this. This is top quality work all through the car. Edit- finished watching the video and my God this thing is violent. Thanks for sharing this!
That was such a dope ass video. You have the nicest/ cleanest build I've ever seen. That things an absolute monster, it just eats the streets alive. They don't know how to handle that much power
Love this build man I follow his videos all the time , this car is properly built from top to bottom with nothing but pure dedication . Salute to this man and his crew I hope that one day I can imitate your hard work and dedication with my GTR
Formula Seven I thought porn was banned on RUclips. But hats off to you for building her the way you did. I am going to recommend this video to 1320video and TRC. If I ever visit US, may I please ride shotgun?
lol when it builds up boost and the gears start to scream it sounds scary as fuck. U need to have big ballz to drive this monster a very nice build dude thumbs up!
eddie ramirez lmao, that actually had me rewind twice just because I couldn't believe how fast it fired up! My old 7 never did that haha, it was weird to witness in a video

Excellent build man! I can see the work and dedication you put into it. That’s my Dream car, I hope to own one someday. And that corvette had me dying laughing so hard. I picture the look on his face when you zoomed by him. He probably traded in his vette the next day. Lmao 😂
So sick, man I have the same gauges in my street car the alarms shit me to tears, I turned them off! (Hold down the peak hold button while turning the ignition on just incase you can't find the instruction sheet) keep up the good work it's a beast!
This thing is practically built to be on the track, and my God does it sound amazing. When you build up the revs to like 4 or 5000 RPM it sounds like a Koenigsegg. Anything beyond that it'll sound like a super bike.
Damn I want one of these things so bad until I looked at just the price of a 4 rotor engine but I don't care I still want to have a car like this built.the 4 rotor has got to be the best sounding engine of all time to me.great car and great channel just subscribed.
