What its like owning a 3 Rotor 20B RX-7
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 дек 2024
- I have one of the most amazing custom RX-7s in the world. I want to share my experience of owning and driving such a unique car.
I explain where the engine came from, why its so special, and what it does to a Mazda RX-7
Oooo look that turbo has an engine
lmao!!
keeek
with the optional RX-7 attachment!
Kevin Alexander lmao
mike hunt lol you're obviously a loser
Just roaming around waiting for the 4 rotor to be finished 😂
Same here bro.
Same
Ethan G same
Same...

Its pretty rare in a youtube video that you can actually see the power and get a sence of the performance being put out.(a remote sence). This is one of those rare videos and cars.
+Rob Dahm Well you seem to like sharing about everything else, honestly, how much did it cost?
+Rob Dahm No surprise at all man, absolute EARGASM. I alone must be 1/3 of those views
my guess is 70k
bill smith yes. all 300 horse
Did you watch the dyno video? It's making around 800.
Angry 20b rotor sounds sweet!
the mini van smoked him @ 1:13
HAHAHAHAH I SAW THAT TOO
had to wait for boost :D
holy fuck thats my dad HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
this made my fucking day hahaha. thank you for this
Blake D everythings have more torque that rotary
It should be a rule in youtube that if you put a car video on here that shows a car driving fast....you should HAVE to cut the DAMN MUSIC OFF!!!!!
or make it optional , like on/off button hahahaha
True I wanted to hear that rurbo
@@hemullett255 didn't we all
Unless you doing a cinematic or something cool
If you look at the deleted scenes youll see and hear that the wind noise practically drowned out the sound of the car
80mm of turbo on a 2.0L engine..... holy balls
+roturd Its a 75mm turbo. Its surprisingly cheap. $850 on jegs.
wow... still impressive!
+Anthony Isn't the s480 96mm?
+Braden Carlson Ross is Sexy.
Where do you get that sweet bug screen clamped on the inlet??? Do you get it from Jegs or does he have a matching hole in his screen door..
Aww man, this video popped up today after the 4-rotor vs Hoonicorn video. It’s crazy to see how far you’ve come Rob. Congratulations for all of it. I can’t wait to see this car get some more love once the 4-rotor is all sorted.
I love this guy. Finding people for true pride in the cars they drive is tough these days. Anyone who personifies a 3 rotor rx7 as something that hates doing anything unless it's for the sole purpose of scaring the shit out of you is an alright guy in my book. Subscribed.
is it just me, or does this dude remind you of stiffler?
+robert retka gaaaaay!
+robert retka i didn't say anyone is gay. i only said i would blow the dude for the car. hell I'll blow anyone for food right now. doesn't make me gay. just would cause i haven't had food in days and I'm hungry.
+robert retka let me rephrase that. You're gaaaay! Ya just dont know it lol. Your in the wrong channel mang.
+robert retka you sure are being defensive to a stranger on a comment. are you really that homophobic that you must defend to someone you'll never know , or are you so worried to be outed? the more you argue for days , the more i feel that, i hope you get comfortably in being a gay male. it's okay bro. they's nothing wrong with it. it's really accepted in current times.
stiff meister
that mini van was pulling on you bro
***** Lol, good video by the way.
Coming back to this video years later to remember where my rotary obsession started. In 2 days I’ll be getting my first rotary car. It’s gonna be an rx8 and it’s a hefty project but I’m so stoked. Thanks Rob for keeping my dream alive.
this car is so powerful to the point that when the non-working tach felt it, it swore to never stop working again 6:45
I could go on for days how out of every uploaded video on RUclips pertaining to building a car, this would rank in the top 3. This is a brilliantly organized, ridiculously informative, completely engaging, and perfectly executed. Take notes, because this how you make a video.
Hey Rob, I have watched this video about 100 times, and still can't get over how nice your car is. A Mazda RX-7 is, and have always been my dream car. Keep up the great work!
1:16 FIREBALL
How is your RUclips channel going
Totally cool that you share your passions on youtube, cause a lot of rich car guys just post videos of street races and are so secretive about their cars. Also a big fan of the genuine enthusiasm, its like a friend running up and saying, you gotta check this out!
I love the face he makes when it goes into boost
If I owned a 3 rotor, I would be the biggest douche bag ever.
Same. I like to be a very nice driver, but if I had this car I would care about two things. Speed, and family
@@billjamal4764 lol was family a fast and furious reference ? xD
@@ifeelit4448 yes of course
Have followed you for so long now, and never get tired of watching this video, the 3 rotor is my dream car
This guy needs to be a top gear host
+Griffin Mackenzie I agree with you!
+Griffin Mackenzie no they had 3. clarkson may and hammond. now they are gone top gear is dead
+Griffin Mackenzie He's not brit, it won't do.
+MAGICOmagique Joey from Friends is on there, pretty sure he's not a brit.
+Mortal 5 are you talking about Top Gear USA? Because it's not Top Gear.
6:45 you can see the fear in his eyes
His face when the turbocharger kicks in is fucking priceless oh my god I am laughing so hard.
front clips are a product of Japanese emission controls, not broken engines:-) I think you should let me have this car though. I like
Rob Dahm this is the most insane car I've ever seen. Just wait until you get the 4 rotor build done. You think that 3 rotor scares you, hahah. You just wait buddy. Love the car though. Good build.
the car is all like: YOU FOOLS! THIS ISNT EVEN MY FINAL FORM!
btw rob, do you need a wheel alignment?
LMAOO
hvf26 just like dbz it takes forever to build up power XD
About 29 episodes and 1 transformation along with some possible filler, then you get the end result.
@@rckli Superchargers offer linear power
This comment makes way more sense now!!!
2019 and this video will never get old
Anyone else want to see reactions to people riding in this?
What a little beast
I know that think hauls ass like a freight train haha!
OnyxStudios720p freight trains are really slow : l
dacasman I was relating the unstoppable power of a freight train to this cars unbelievable amount of torque.
Oh alright that makes sense xD
that's quite literally the most beautiful car I've ever seen.
anybody else here from 2019?
watching back these old days till the 4 rotors is 100% completed and on the car
Yea, like the top comment who posted this a month before you did. Good job clout chaser
@@McJerkins okeh
You know a car is scary when even the owner is scared to drive it lol
The shit honestly sounds terrifying..
what's you mpg? 10?
+David Ha Depends on how he drives it lol. If he drives it like he does in the video every day, most likely 10 or below!
+Rob Dahm 5mpg. good. suck on it greenies
+Dazzmond Western Greenies being his wallet?
Dazzmond Western No shit? By greenies im assuming you were referring to people who are "tree huggers", which is made a joke about greenies being his wallet..
+Smackindaface sorry I don't know what you said can you repeat? "which is made a joke" doesn't make sense. I get the first but bit not the last bit. clarify please.
Where it all started. Just came here after the Pike's Peak finish. Congrats again Rob, you've done well with this car!
It looks so much better now in 2019
At 7:30 the look on his face... Priceless!
+MudRFunR hahaha
MudRFunR gh
even if you look without sound you can see how powerful is this car
big power, no comfort, stock black body....that's my kinda car. no F&F crap. no consideration given to driver comfort. just a mean engine, mated to a RWD driveline, that is all you need to have a smile on your face while driving.
Amen Brother... :)
Well this is your car then because no one thought about the comfort of the driver. Should make a nice cross country run, right?
After so many years this video is still epic.
I'd love to see the guys on Top Gear UK drive this beast, especially Jeremy
Anthony Lopez hu?
Anthony Lopez uhhh.. Jeremy Did get into This car.Back in 1993
takis659 I think he means this car in particular
POWERRR!
SO, about the Rotary engine.....
The relevance of an automotive product is directly linked to its demand in the market. In an automotive market where the majority of the population are looking to travel from point A to B, people will refuse to withstand a lack of simple durability. Logistics.
Yes it was a failure. Was it because of poor design? NO. A refined rotary has already been developed by a mechanical company in california, as well as Mazdas own rx7 work recently. This engine also destroyed boundaries previously unexplored by the traditional piston engine.
Can this engine last a long time? YES. If properly cared for and maintenanced one can receive a premium from this engine in terms of durability. When was the last time you maintenanced your car? If your answer isn't, "Oh, i work on it every week" then I politely state that you are incapable of understanding the situation - and probably never will.
So now you might cite examples of rx7's that were maintenanced and still fell apart. I would be willing to bet they were modified by someone who was NOT experienced with a rotary (Can easily lead to poor repairs, poor choice of and installment of replacement apex seals, etc...). Also may have had a very.... enthusiastic..... induction system like the one in this video.
IN THE END. Is it cool? YES. Is it reliable? YES. Is it durable?..... Are you a dedicated gear head who is confident in their knowledge of a rotary engine?
AND BEFORE ANYONE SAYS I AM JUST AN "RX FAN"
-I drive a JEEP with a 35 year old AMC *PISTON* engine that i work on all the time
-I am a diehard JEEP fan
-I am just here to state the facts
-FINALLY, i am annoyed that people who cant even tell you how a rotary works will condemn it over what they have heard or read.
Hayes Goodyear amen brother! Jeep family here my man!
I can't read.
Why wouldn't you use a slightly smaller turbo to get boost across more of the curve?
+Thezuule Because this car stock produces it's max tourque at @ 5k RPM. So you usually want to start your power at the max torque.
This car stock doesn't like to get shifted before 5k RPM. It will lug bad and be slow to drive as this car is famous for having no low end torque.
+SI0AX Remember power is torque x rpm. If you produce more low-rpm torque you also produce more low-rpm power. This isn't a stock car it's a 20B. A smaller turbo would improve the area under the curve (average power output across the rev range). Running a large capacity rotor with a stupidly large turbo doesn't make much sense, as you're losing the low-rpm response advantage that should come with 50% more exhaust gas flow compared to a 13B.
overnightpartsfromjapan
This is tuned purely for top end. This is a race car setup of course. It sacrifices low end for high HP. So this thing accelerates very fast like a motorcycle.
Only a track racing enthusiast can drive this.
Rob looks fit enough and It seems like he's been at the circuit. If you can do 20 laps in a row on a decently challenging circuit I'm sure you can daily this car.
I wouldn't mind daily driving a race car with no interior, rattles and vibrates your balls of, drones, has no air conditioning(in 90 deg weather) and has a roll cage that forces you to enter through the window lol.
+overnightpartsfromjapan Well aren't u a smart one?
If it were a drift build then yes
Who still watches this atleast once a month? I can’t believe it is still top video after all these years
And what about alignament??... 01:28
There are 3 sides to a rotor, there are 3 rotors in a 20B rotary engine... THE ROTARY ENGINE IS ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED!!!
"Angry because it's turbocharged" Rotary's love, and run very well turbocharged.
Skeptic Fence Show Apex seals fail even faster with a turbo...yay!
The real doktorbimmer Not with RA Super Seals.. Do the research. I've been using them in my 1st gen for 5 years with over 40k @16 lbs of boost and car runs flawless. I beat the piss out of the car. lol
Skeptic Fence Show Good advertisement! Sorry, I'm not buying it.
Tough to stay in business when no manufacturers sell a Wankel engined car anymore..
***** What are you some kind of angry troll...?
***** Maybe because unlike you, I understand the difference between a Wankel and a Rotary engine...
I don't get why this keeps appearing in my recommended videos, but whenever it does I watch it. Love this car
Did your tachometer start working at 6:47?
My friend has the same problem with his Rx-7, it just comes and goes as it pleases.
Andersng1 lol
That tends to happen on some imports when not running for too long.
Why do people remove power steering? I always wondered that.
You feel more of the cars pull so you can correct it a little easier at high speeds, or alot of people say its pretty much just a preference, i have no pump in my teggy but im putting one in this week actually lol, i dont go fast often enough and at lower speeds its balls to turn, backing into a tight assass driveway sucks without it 😂
no space when they do engine conversions, weight management, more direct. i think lol
Kyle Thistle ur dumb taking power steering and ac looses weight and tbe motor has more power as there is lesd things the motor has to turn
Did i say thats ALL it did? Ur dumb for making accusations...
Of which i have neither btw tt jimmy so i think id know....
Your tachometer seems to be working fine
I love how the tach started working when the boost kicked in this is my favorite rx7!
1:15 XD Like if you like the mini van passing his car
***** I bet it had a K & N sticker on the back too...that would have gave it 400 more Horse Power
it had VTec too, i'm sure of it
i remember watching this video when it came out damn
you are a very good spokesman, you could sell me that rx7 with that sweet speech you gave lol nice car man! that thing is a beast, loves being up high in the RPM's. Whats the redline on that thing? 12,000?
There is no redline, it revs to heaven lol
lol !
beyond305 It's a rotary, man! There is no rev limit. ;)
Very nice work! Thanks for keeping it low-key and tasteful. You have a real classic.
Next step, 26B?
4:30 just skip here if you came for the car, not to watch Richy rich act like Jason from engineering explained.
*****
was meant more in sarcasm than to be an insult man
+John Sullivan Should have read your comment first. What a total waste of time. I just wanted to see the car, not his ego.
smiley800
lmao for real
the title "what its like owning a 3rotor rx7" i already knew he will talk alot of educational none sense on the car base on the title alone. plus he didnt even build the car..
playah hater
damn i didnt know he didnt even build it.. how lame
Today is the anniversary of the death of the Wankel, 4 years ago today June 22, 2012 at 4:30pm the Wankel engine assembly plant at Mazda Ujina #2 shut down and shortly there after was dismantled to make way for a brand new engine assembly facility at Ujina #2 specifically designed to manufacture Mazda's successful new signature Skyactiv-G ® line of reciprocating Otto type engines
When it kicks in it just gets a mind of its own. Damn, love it.
hey Rob, I'm thinking of getting an rx7 but I'm kinda scared of the reliability or lack of. how do I make these more reliable? a few people say it's get a boost gauge and change to a single turbo as your first mods, but what do you think?
While both of the things you listed would be good for reliability on the boost side, you've also gotta take care of that special rotary engine, premixing, keeping your coils and spark plugs in good condition and using conventional rather than synthetic motor oils is better for these cars in reliability terms, also drive it like it's a sports car, not a grandma car, rotary engines do not like to be babied, they lubricate more and clean out the carbon that builds up in the engine at higher rpm, also keep your coolant in good shape as these motors run HOT, so coolant is a big thing because even just a small overheat can cause massive damage to these engines, but really that's all you need to do to make them reliable, you can get close to 250-300k miles out of these motors if you treat them right
Wow, I think you got every myth and old wives tale about Wankel engines in there.. LOl.. 250-300k miles??? Yeah right! maybe if you don't count 4-5 engine overhauls in that 300k miles..
If every myth and old wives tale is personal experience then yeah maybe I have you're right, maybe 250-300k is a bit of a stretch, but stranger things have happened than a rotary lasting that long without a rebuild, I have seen several surpass 200k without a rebuild, maybe with low compression and running real rough, but they ran and drove, and that's what I say counts, disagree with me if you like, but stranger things have happened, I own an RX-8, I know what I'm talking about
rotaries require apex and other internal seals as part of maintenance, while there are things you can do to make it more reliable, you WILL have to tear the engine apart to make it last as long as a piston engine.
D Sorry, but here in the real world repairs that require engine removal, complete dis-assembly and complete overhaul are not considered "maintenance" this is called "Engine Failure" and the only course of action is called overhaul, remanufacturing or rebuilding.
"maintenance" is service done to PREVENT Engine Failure... not a remedy for engine failure.
Wankel engines simply do not last as long as reciprocating technology and its also the one of the reasons why Wankel engines have been obsolete for years.
WTF @1:13 mom driving a van just passed you lmfao, Not hating I know RX7's, is just looks funny.
SOCCER MOM MOBILES WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL
The wheel spin though, would have pooped myself. 6:44
Jesus christ, Rob....here I've been watching your videos for years now and am totally fascinated by your journey to the 4 rotor engine going into a totally custom built chassis, and it was THIS FUCKING VIDEO that got me hooked on your channel. Keep running the fun stuff, and keep making videos that YOU WANT AND YOU ENJOY! That is what lures folks in to your channel. PLEASE keep doing what you're doing.
Damn... The RX-7 is one of my dream cars. But I'll probably never own one.
The others are 1974 Camaro, Dodge Viper and Impreza WRX STi.
Keep your dreams there you can make it!:)
Thanks, I'm currently working my butt off to pay off my current car loan (2010 Civic - I needed a car and fast since my old one was totaled). My next car will hopefully be the 2014 (or newer) Camaro SS 1LE
damn nice post some pics when you get it!:)

When the 3 rotor was pretty clean and good looking
He reminds me of stiffler
me too lmao
meldon100 ha me 3
Yes lol
this video never gets old
Is it me or whoever installed that steering wheel didn't pay attention to making sure it was aligned correctly?! OCD!!
That is my pet peeve. I fixed it on every car I've ever owned, a little more than hundred cars over the years. You don't even have to do an alignment, just move the tie rods equal turns or on easy cars pull the steering wheel.
does he almost stall it pulling out?
maybe almost
That's clutch chatter from not breaking in a clutch properly.
no
It's the type of clutch
+Blake D do you had anything better to do than making people feel like shit? Really dude, get a life.
Maybe a power demo in some place other than a suburb? Thanks for the video. We've driven RX-7's for years.
It's crazy seeing Rob go from this 10 years ago to having the fastest 3 Rotor Rx7 to do pikes peak. What a legend.
"Only" 600bhp at full boost? Is that at the crank, or at the wheels? Thats still crazy for a car that doesn't weight a lot. @David M, rotary engines aren't as reliable as a piston engine, they wear out kind of quickly, but they don't blow up after 10,000miles of use I think. I would think at least 30,000miles out of a freshly rebuilt and properly broken in engine. 300,000 miles is like how long a volvo lasts. I would think maybe 100,000miles for a rotary
Are you an idiot? at wastegate pressure, not full boost.
a volvo *can* last up to and well beyond 300k. 100k is normal for your average american car. I wouldn't expect as much out of a rotary unless it was meticulously maintained.
MrGnarman Uh, the average american car lasts WELL beyond 100k miles. Usually about double that when maintained. If not more. I had an '86 Oldsmobile as my first car that I sold at 255k and it was still running fantastic. The only major problem it ever had was the transmission went out at around 200k. Engine was still is good shape.
kingcrimson234 yeah, the engine will last, but the car isn't worth the upkeep once you've paid more than the car's worth. ps: I'm an american, and my family has almost exclusively owned american cars until just recently. you can keep any car running past 300k, but you're just going to be throwing money into something that's never going to give you an equal return.
My R1 lasted 234k and only needed clutches and one exhaust change. Well tires as well. Change the oil and keep it clean, the car will last just fine.
Those damn rotary engines sound like a 2-stroke, ya know like a dirtbike, and it sounds like they've got that high rpm powerband thing goin on too.
"I own another Rx-7 and the cars are nothin alike"
Future Rob want a word with you
Fun trick for rotaries: drill a hole for a spark plug in the pipe between the engine and the exhaust side of the turbo. Now wire all the spark plugs in the engine to the exhaust plug with a relay
great car - wish mazda still made them. RX7 is so much nicer than the RX8. When they were new they were very expensive. Your turbo kicks in at too high an rpm for my taste...doesn't seem too usable for a daily driver. but I'm not too familiar with turbos so maybe that's normal. IMO you should try a super charger.
rx7s are coming back for 2016.
euroaaRON1
with a fucking hybrid engine.
Mazda sucks now, so does Toyota, and Honda is on the short list right behind. I am losing hope in the Japanese.
Derek Mark Ohh where is the time Toyota made the supra? It's like Japan is losing it's touch on performance cars.
I completely agree man. Like the new GTR, no 6 speed. the new LFA, gets beat by the GTR. I dont get it. And now Honda with this new Civic Type R that we will of course, never see in america.
I like the RX-7's but there is a reason why many people swap to a regular piston engine from other brands. Horrible reliability, that only gets worse when you start cranking up the power.
The biggest thing on the rotory is making sure to maintain the seals on the tips of the rotor. That little tiny razor blade looking seal when it goes u lose compression. Still worth having one.. dumb mustang owner: hey your missing four pistons in that ricer..hahaha...rx7 owner: it don't have pistons ..... true story
alan stepp They are pretty badass cars. Most people are just in unfamiliar territory when it comes to rotary engines. I have no problem admitting i know nothing about them, except how they work in theory. I have never worked on one. I am sure thats whats keeping a lot of people from owning one. You need to spend a lot of time talking to people that have dedicated all of their time to these engines.
They are more reliable than conventional piston engines, but less durable. There's a difference.
Aces High this, while it may not brake it needs alot of care, alot of oil and resealing every 100k miles if you want it to last.
Daniel Marinov Rotary engines are for tinkerers and gear heads who like every part of maintaining a car. If that doesn't sound like you, then they aren't meant for you.
I love hiw Rob basically didn't age in the last 8 years
Right?
5 years later and this is still one of my favorite videos on RUclips.
Lol pulse performance here in New Zealand built a six rota beast
i think i remember seeing that on High Octane DVD :P

Brings back memories of when the 3rotor wasn't a pile of garbage. It was gorgeous when you first got it. But time(or lack of) and driving the hell out of it has made it look like it isn't loved and cared for. I hope that once the 4rotor is finished you'll start loving on the 3rotor again.
awesome and beautiful, even though it's mean and angry, i would love to have something like that, i love mean, hard to drive cars, as weird as that sounds.
To people who also enjoy the same...it doesn't.
4:22 - Flip-flops to drive an FD? I'm totally hating on you. For owning a 3-rotor FD, then wearing inappropriate footwear while driving one.
***** yeah i do the same thing in my Mini
***** Nothing better than driving a clutch with bare feet :) Perfect shift every time.
***** Taking them off to drive, oddly enough, I agree with that. I know what you mean about it feeling very "direct". I sometimes drive with my socks on.

To each their own, but if you've never tried wrestling shoes, they work well for me.
CreosAbsolute i drive barefoot as well i only wear shoes when i have to lol
If the video makes it to youtube, I survived so it's all goo-video cuts off
You can just feel the power...CRAZY! This thing is nuts!!!!!!
And that turbo is useful... how?
It's like, little power, little power, a bit more power, turbo kicks in, godlike power.
you must not know the rotary engine
No I don't really. I've never driven nor do I know how the power curve/distribution is on those.
ThyBiding They rev much higher than a normal engine which means that, unlike the run of the mill 7000 rpm redline, you can get several thousand more rpm worth of revving time, making the 5000 rpm spool viable.
I guess that makes sense. Rotary's are weird...
right? haha. horribly inefficient on gas though, which is another reason why you can run a big turbo: more exhaust!
I've hit 359 km/h on revheadz engine sounds
Nice car. Your steering technique needs work though dude. That method at 6:06 is frightening.
Your absolutely right but I bet he's doing cas he has no power steering.
+TechnicallyExcellent dude is driving with flip flops too
+TechnicallyExcellent When power steering is out the turn ratio is exponential on that tiny ass wheel.
This is where it started, boys! This car just did Pike's Freaking Peak.
My turbo starts to spool at 1500rpm. Then again, I'm a diesel truck kinda guy.
Ooo so your telling me you probably don't drive stick :/ your missing out!
Jesse Dean Diesel trucks can have a manual transmission...
Jesse Dean I've never owned an automatic. I have two diesels, both of which are straight drive.
What sort of turbo are you running? What kind of truck? What's your RPM redline? Just curious. My car has full spool by 3100RPM, redline at 8500 RPM.
R Schwabe
most stock turbos on a diesel are 60 mm give or take, and with some fueling mods can start coming online by 15-1600, once you start going up in size though the turbo may not light till 2000+ depending on the set up and desired power, pulling trucks won't light the turbo/turbos till 3500 rpm depending on the class. My 03 cummins with the stock he341 (54/9/58) can hit 36 psi under 2000 rpm when the converter is locked at half throttle with 100hp injectors and an edge juice.
he sure is a big fan on himself
And he is also funny
funny something....lol
What it's like owning a 20b rx7: Rob Dahm spraying money out of a fire hose at his rx7
This just randomly came up in my recommended lol. We’re all proud of you, Rob
