The first thing I can say about this video, it's beautiful to see how your sister looks so much like you. You can't say she's not your sister. Very nice to see how you get along, you can see that you grew up in harmony at home. 😊 For this video my rating is 10 out of 10!
Enjoyed your sister's first experience driving your four-rotor RX-8, Erik! It reminds me of those days I learned to drive a four-speed stick-shift 1962 Volkswagen all by my own learning curve! It was forgiving. And yet, I never had to replace the clutch assembly, and yet I never received a speeding ticket, unlike the potential for moving violations this car your car could accumulate. Great finish-to an engineering marvel, Erik!
Ha haa, my girlfriend's nicest and most knolegable thing she says about my RX8 is that she likes the colour, qouat "it's a nice shade of blue and I like the sparckles". LMAO.
This thing probably has terrible pedals but i remember the Moment it clicked for me.... It was letting the clutch out untill i hear the engine get just slightly loaded then adding throttle and then releasing the clutch ... With some getting used to these processies just kinda become one... this insight litterly enabled me to drive clutch vehicles lol now its just natural no need to thinking about individual pedals
I feel like to drive this car normally in traffic you have to be obnoxious af, spamming throttle while creeping 😂 i know a LOT of people hate it but being obnoxious is fun 😅
I'm not an expert, but it sounds a lot like your microphones are clipping all the time and it's quite hard to listen to honestly. From my limited experience recording on Sony cameras you want as little microphone sensitivity as possible. Perhaps give it a try next time?
Actually having your sister drive the car is a really good test to see how tame is it to drive casually.
Totally Agree!

Always felt you were such a cool guy. Now I've seen your sister and she is equally so cool!! Extra credit should be given for driving in sandals!!
I know there are aluminium door handles upgrade for FD to buy. Why not ask Johnny to install them since the car is still with you more or less?
They are new oem handles so they should be good for a little bit.
I've had my 88 10th anniversary RX-7 1of1500 for 26 YEAR'S!!!! What a car you have.
Hearing the 4 rotor is always a good day. Exhaust note could be described as LAF😊
Man, you have built one incredibly beautiful 10 out of 10 FD IMHO. Thank you for your contribution to the rotary community.
Sister’s pretty funny man, good sport 😆
FD is in the highest tier for its design. No question about it.
6.5?! WELP, we know what sibling was dropped on it's head
She's right about the wheels.
At first I thought "wow, your girlfriend looks just like you" 😂😂
I clearly didn't read the title....
'Tubes.' Also the look on her face at 14:27
looks amazing, a carbon airbox would be peak though.

*I don't get why the 4 rotor wasn't put in the superior chassis.*
Also, get a moonroof for that thing. Moonroof > Sunroof.
Dude, your sister needs her own channel where she can rate cars! One of your best uploads! 💯

My family can’t stand that I say “tubes” all the time now thanks to Erich. 🤣🤣👍

Amazing car mazda❤
Telling someone how it sounds...then you gotta get a youtube video of it goin passed.
Is not because is a rx7... is because IT IS THE FD... 🥱
how could anyone call this a camry?
lmao what a ride
How did you even find a 4 rotor?
mazdatrix I think.
Edit: I'm wrong
Defined Autoworks built it.
Logan from defined auto works built it

Yea I am going to make some adjustments. It was rough to edit and put together.
Excellent 👍
Did you sort the oil leak ?
Yep all good!!!
Next, bring your girlfriend.
Now I know the FD RX7 won't impress women...
more reasons to put money in to the car instead of women
