    Just your everyday E30 M7 build

    Whats that you say there is no such thing as an E30 M7.... WWRRROOONNNGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!


    hope yall enjoy the build, we finally got to a point where we can make some headway on this build that I have been talking about every now and then on here



    getting the engine placed and marking the frame


    installing the oil pan after cleaning off the old gasket and adding some new blue shit






    the mounts our buddy made for me. awesome guy, does tons of fab work for offshore race boats







    all in all this took 2 days because of dead batteries for stephens drill, we also arnt the best at being "Precise" lol so there were a lot of redo's

    just sourcing out parts now and hope to have it running in the next couple weeks

      Rotard, ;)

      Mazda Rotary.

      They are alright. Very unique engine with just about unlimited rpm capability. No camshafts, no valves, valve springs, no rods or pistons. just open up the ports and add more rotors. The one is here a simply run of the mill stock 13b and probably about 130HP at 8K rpm. Nicknamed the 'Bumble Bee'.

      I see some out at the track that sound fucking awesome (pro race) and put down some really good lap times.

      This one is if I am correct is out of a Gen 2 or 3 RX7. With that turbo it will probably lay down a couple hundred horse and pollute the entire city it resides in.

      They are very dirty running engines, I think the stock RX7 had something like 6 catalysts. When you uncork them you can hear them about about 5 miles away.

      Good shit though, keep up the good work. Can't wait to hear it run.

      Video of 4 rotor, when you get this action going on, then you can call it a M7, ;)

        not only will it produce the greenhouse gasses that will finally bring that asshole of an ozone layer down, but it will create flames that will burn your leg hair off from 5 miles away

                            will be waiting for your PM. we love this build, even though its not easy. probably done something more simple Like Boil a Chicken or jerk off in front of a pegasus. But oh well go big or go home
