V12 Zonda Swapped Mazda RX7 VS. Rotary? 👀

[marcelo.dhsk]

This mans has not fired up that rx7 not even ONCE

[jakes]

his car makes 0 horsepower because it doesn’t actually run

[bretturioste]

But what about an RX7 with a Mercedes’ motor that doesn’t actually run and is only mounted in the bay 😂

[ChadBroChill.]

How about a video of the car doing something besides sitting at a car show?

[cybersifygaming]

It's not about horsepower, it's about the holy braps

[daftwatcher]

robs 4 rotor making over 1500hp is cooler though

[QuantumPlaysOfficial]

There is no issue with swapping out rotaries. The main issue is the disrespect people have for rotary motors

[bingbongmcgee]

I'd say power to weight ratio is more important than overall horsepower

[MDisaster]

A huge part of what made the RX-7s so special is the unique-to-Mazda engine. They're not perfect, but they're _perfect_.

V10s getting that redheaded step child treatment

[truckloadofrhymes]

As an RX7 driver and a rotary purist I believe that if you're going to do a swap as long as it's an import I don't see a problem but if it's just doing an LS swap hell no

[loganclark]

I disagree. If that statement was true, people would just be ev swapping everything. How a car makes power is important. A cars soul is important. The engine in your car is IMPORTANT.

[DanMarcelino]

What does matter is where that power is in the rev range and what sort of driving/racing you're doing.

[CB-eszf]

Thats kinda cool, tbh. But for only 300 hp?? Might as well port an NA 3 rotor setup and call it a day.

[rjbravo]

Those are true Mazda fans and have everything original and perfect and that's great, more power to yall.... I mean more power to the ones who don't care but everyone should have a OEM car one day...

[Zher-]

I remember being so amazed with that rx7. But until now I'm still waiting for it to run. It is very cool but I wish Sema had a standard to have a running car not a case with an engine place on it

[whitehuayra]

Love rotary! but damn thats a top tier choice for a swap. Did not see that coming

[yugaindiranmarimuthu]

I'm always amazed by the workings of a rotary engine.. i don't know much about them compared to the normal piston engine.. but the working looks like it's more straightforward compared to piston engines

[_Colt]

That RX-7 is practically my dream car.

4 cylinder rx7 is the golden combo. Nothing ruined, nothing lost, only gains
