Yes actually I am from NZ, and am involved in the drifting circle (D1NZ here). I havent seen them do anything to this car, but I know many of the guys will do quick fixes to the cars for comps. Mike would have plenty of spares being so heavily sponsored but welding repairs are not uncommon.
I'm sure some people will probably call me stupid or something for this but i don't really care. but how much horsepower and torque does this rx7 actually have? I'm sure i could find it on google but I don't have the time to look now. thanks in advance for an answer :)
its not that, the more rotors the higher the pitch, a 4 rotor has the equivalent of 12 cylinders, so at the same revs the pitch is 3 times higher than a 4 cylinder and twice as high as a 6. im not saying it doesnt rev, ;) im saying the sound isnt pure revs its more about the desgin of the engine, redline is probably still only about 8-9g at a guess
and puts out more power, you cannot compare fuel consumption and displacement of a rotary to a piston. I have a 12at engine 1150cc that uses the same fuel as a 3.8l v6 but puts out more power.
He didnt say that, unless you were there watching them weld it back up? And why re-weld something that blew up straight away.. these guys are smarter than to do that again. Look it up.. you never ever re-weld something thats blown under pressure, structurally weakened by the first crack. I know, i do welding at where i work. and trust me, shit flys if you even consider re welding
That engine sounds and just the look of the car is amazing
@Prodigy Rezz, the rx7 and rx8 both came with a 13b, Mazda Eunos Cosmo came with the 20b.
@SBPNZ Can't wait for the Mt Smart Night round it's gonna be sick!

does this have the overseas intake and exhaust on it?
Lives up to his name @3.50, Did ya pull off the reverse switch entry??? only saw the attempt on this vid. ILL
@BlackRatize what was shaun54's comment? He removed it
@shaun54 no need for these comments, maybe he's new to the car scene and just wanted to know what type of engine it is??
All you hear is that limiter... And it's amazing!!
What body kit does mike have?
Some D1 stuff there by Mike!

Why was there smoke in coming from the drivers seat??? (Mad mikes)
A madmike was on track Ebisu?
This just a 20b? Or what sounds different compared to a 26b to me
Where do I signup for mikes job???
@acertuning what do u mean?
What engine does it have? :)
hey guys is it true that a fd3s rx7 is hard to drift or not???
oh okay thanks for the info :) and unfortunately i don't get that magazine :(
@nzdrift777 exactly. thank you!!
It's cause mazdas rotary engine and i believe he is straight piped too so it is pure rotary sound
I would love to see him back in maybe FD Japan, he didn't do so well in FD Usa, really wonder what he is up to these days
I'm in love!!!! 4 rotor is Beast!!!!
sick video bro! really makes me wanna get out there lol
We had a rx2 with a 12a pp ( carby too ) that reved up to 13,000
but my brothers V8 ute revs to 9 and a half ;)
i love mad mike hes beast
has mike thought of putting a twin turbo on that car?
He used to. Now I believe he runs two 26b's.

Its just the smoke from the tyres thats got into the cockpit.
power by rotary engine./////Mad Mike u r special one.
you are the best man :)
He's a Kiwi?
@BlackRatize 26b quad rotor
i wonder how much rpm that engine goes, to do this sound. sounds like an rc car.
Bro do you even drift?
Damn i LOVE this rx-7
like the part at the end when he has to open to door to clear the smoke!
that rx7 is a mean machine!
awsome cars like the mazda
U are so good
and what a BADASS quad rotor it is :)
its a 26b quad rotor this car makes u deaf in person haha
His whip sounds amazing. N/a tha best
love it ha, testament to Mazda engineering
RX 7 legend of engine
Powerfull ! ;3
your profile pic matches your comment perfectly.
shit that man can drive way to represent
It does kinda sounds like a Nitro motor....yes i know its a 4 rotor
that's the rotary baby.
Mad Mike vs Daigo Saito. No video found, too much smoke.
and the funny thing is theres no turbo's strapped to that unlike every other car that competes with him lol
👐
Wrong, i is still a fully monocoque chassis
awwww YEAH
the other thing is he also got it wrong because it is a quad rotar not just a rotar
STRAIGHT BOSS
Quad rotor FTW!
Tought was watching formula videos :o
Rotary*
Luce? I think you mean JC Cosmo
or because rotarty engines dont have pistions n rev to 9000
yeah the rotary engine REVs so fucking high:)
FUCK YES
a roll cage covered in plastic?? what plastic?? when did they make rx7s out of plastic?
Its Called a Roatary, They Do That, more revs than you know what to do with
@shaun54 nice story bro.
and keiichi tsuchiya vs mike whiddett
the best:X!!
no me gustho el sonido del escape pareciera una bicicleta con una botella en la rueda tracera del rx7
Hope you realized that he said it blew first lap.
One day, I'll drift like that.. atleast in Grid 2
i'm pretty sure it's a 26B ;-)
ai sim
Yeah, but I hope you Realised* that they just weld it back up.
NATHAN!!
TANDEM KING
rotary, best engines make the best noise ;)
dat engine :i
its not turbo
thats exactly what i said... good reading comprehension skills buddy
Wow. I suppose if you have a slight interest in something you have to know everything about it, right?
Thats called quad rotary :3

I know, i do welding at where i work. and trust me, shit flys if you even consider re welding
also cause it has nitrous
i guest it is the same engine
sound likes Mazda 787B
550hp-660hp now every new version gets put in NZ performance car magazine
That look good on my driveway
so technically speaking...it's a 2.6L. But it consumes more than a 4L V8 lol
ha just noticed the nfs logo 0:09
your amazing. make it look so damn easy. hard enough in a bugie in a wet padok
Is it just me or does Mike's car sound like an over sized RC Car? :D
its called a rotary engine
Smoke...Smoke..Smoke... rotary,,,, - -"""
he sounds like he is americano-britain xD
my god :)
i think he should put an turbo in that engine....lol
