NSX Motor in an EG

If I had the money to do that, I would rather just have the NSX.

Yeah I've seen the nxs on the crx b4. I think I've even seen a v8 on a crx once.

One I never seen and would love to see will be a rotary on a civic.

BoRIcuA y QUE!

Hey, its just an idea. Just like the pilot v6, nxs and v8 idea.

At least a rotary motor will keep more space under the hood. And they have power. You can't go wrong with a rotary.

And if you get an rx8 rotary... well that sucks tbh cos it's not even got a turbo lol

see, any body that needs to do a rebuild on a rotary every 70k is bcus they get foot happy cus they figure like tha motor doesnt have a revlimiter they go a rev the damn engine up to 15grand rpm's:jawdrop:n think is ok.
rotary can b as reliable as any other motor.

not all 13b were turbo. n theres plenty of none turbo rotaries out there that are monsters. but either way u can always slap a turbo on a 13b n have mad power.

? You DO know that the 13B has to be rebuilt right? Due to oil problems and a number of other issues?

The renesis doesn't so long as you let it warm up and don't use it on short journeys but the RX-7 engine does.

Regardless of how nicely you drive it, 13Bs are rebuilt every 70k minimum. Not 'if you look after it' they just have to be. It's specified by mazda. They're not going to tell you to rebuild it every 70k if you don't need to.

- Thu Jan 22, 2009 11:09 pm #91643 My friend has an 8 and it needed rebuilding after 54K and he's like 57 (dosn't thrash it lol)... got it at 12K... so you know, dosn't matter how you drive them, Rota = SHIT.

- Thu Jan 22, 2009 11:20 pm #91656 my dad is a rotary lover. he has a 1st gen 12a rotary tha hes had since a kid. over 240k, we moved here from puerto rico in 91 n he still has tha car at his house back home. never rebuilt it an still runs. when he goes back for vacation to visit his fam thats tha car he uses. he has it fully stock as it when it came out from tha line.

i myself had an fc with over 100k and till last year that my apex seals went out.
i know they need rebuilding. like i said when ppl treat them like shit. not everyone can own a rotary.
