Really rare! Let me break this down really quick... Ever heard of the rare 100 GTUs rx7s? Only 40 have ever been claimed and only 6 are confirmed at the time of this posting! Here are the rarest rx7 FC3S models: 1500 10AE Turbo models 1400 infini 1000 winning limited 150 final edition convertible 100 GTUs... out of that 100: 83 red on black 10 black on black 7 white on blue There was only 100 GTUs models created between 1989 and 1991. If you own one of these rare models sign your car up to the registry list here on any of the rotary forums!

The fuel consumption on a the RX-8 really hampered it as a serious proposition in the market. That would have made it even worse. Remember, you dont just need a few rotary nuts to buy one, you need normal sane people to do so as well.

It's always a pleasure to watch one of the 'older gentemen' of the rotary scene imparting their knowledge and still showing the younger guys how to build engines.

It is nice to see someone who knows what they are doing. I thing everyone can learn something here no matter what they are doing in their life.

There's just something so incredibly soothing to see a rotary being built. Would love to hear & see more about the eccentric shaft bearing setup, specially in that coming 4-rotor build!

Way back when I was an awful lot younger, we knew these engines as Wankel engines, named after the German company that developed them in the 1950's. Such an incredible example of extremely high precision engineering. Great to see that there are people around, like Simon, dedicated to this old and still evolving (revolving) technology.

These engines have come so far. Mazda put them out into the world and the people took over

Pistons are super cool, but these rotaries are 🤯. All that billet must make it reliable AF.

What. A. Masterpiece. ♥️♥️ Love the anodise, just compliments it perfectly. 👌 Beautiful build by Simon, and gorgeous story work/editing Luke. 👍

Great vid guys. This guy has a crap ton of knowledge with old school passion and techniques. Thanks for presenting this masterpiece to us 🙏

This video was awesome. I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen through the whole thing. Simon is a mad scientist

I think I've watched this amazing build more than 10 times, just can't get enough of this build!❤

Simon seems like a real good bloke! Nice episode guys!

That by far is one of the most beautiful engines ever!! Absolutely gorgeous!! Back in 1978 I rebuilt my Mazda RX2 engine in my barracks room. It was alot of fun to say the least. That little RX2 would get up and go!!

Why am I so interested in a rotary engine! I don’t have a rotary car but they are so interesting!

Nice work Simon. Nice to see things are still going well for you.

Another expert and gentleman. Great interview and info FB!

Wow epi, love the purple, those housings though! The chrome love 😍

Truly Autoerotica at its finest. A beautiful engine making a wonderful sound. Assembled by a Master Craftsman with decades of experience with calm, clear, and concise conversation. 10/10, will watch again...

Thank you. I’ve watched this three times already and each time I learn something.

Wow an amazing video guys!!... I think it's definitely the future of rotary engines beyond Mazda manufacturing ...The billet gear is like rotary heaven so can't wait to see how the future development and other parts turn out.

Hi an AMAZING Piece of engineering ,I didn,t know there was such a following for the Mazda rotary engine still after all these years .You rarely hear much about them in the UK .Thank you for this video .

Im late to this party but i really enjoyed listening to a master craftsmen talk about craft. What a beauty that engine is.

Takes a master to blend the old with the new and make something awesome. Love watching this. Also the line "you'll hear my wrist click, I've done this a million times", no need for a torque wrench. So funny.

An absolute masterpiece of a build and video. Great work guys 👍

Wow! Simon is a nation treasure! What a great engine!!

Was looking for a complete rotory build video. This is very nice. I know rotorys issues and their apex seals going out but damn ya just gotta love em

Used my Warren and Browns for 30 years on a weekly basis. Personally Checked calibration every 3 months and only needed adjustment twice out of 3 wrenches due to the popper pins getting worn. You could submerge them and clean them and the always hold calibration. Unlike the modern stuff even the electronic ones where they rely on grease and/or piezo sensors that need frequent calibration.

Depending on where you are at…. Defined auto works near Columbus Ohio builds a 4 rotor for about 40k. I watched him do a 1-5 gear pull in the country and it was unreal. It puts out about 700 NA and 1200 with boost.

I would totally build a 3 rotor if it wasn't so expensive... they're amazing engines.

This video is such a breath of fresh air compared to the other crap on youtube.. THANK YOU!

True Masterpiece. Thank You Mate. Ron Dillon, Dallas/Ft Worth Texas.

Beast of a engine and assembly, just imagine the time and effort of just the engineering drawings and measurements and then having a real good CNC machinist and have everything as perfectly round and centered, that a factory engine will have nothing on this beast no matter how you look at it ? Norton products are great stuff as well, there's a lot of USA based performance products which people should be using to save a lot of money especially when using hi speed air tools and sanding disc's, its worth investing in hi quality products that way your not spending so much extra money on items, which are used all the time which norton sell the merit brand, which is so much better product. I used to sell the brand called merit products, i think they might be the same, but sold them in kits and they outlast anything 3M can make and are a little expensive, but if it can go through hastelloy metal and inconel alloys with a 400 grit 3" disc pad and the same from 3M you would have a 100 grit and spend 3 to 4 times as much to try and get the same result, The afterburner rings on a F18 hornet are made from Hastelloy alloy just imagine what it can do to most normally alloys and metals, basically they make so many different sanding disc's and shapes that i sold a few to the V8 supercars racing teams including Larry Perkins in Moorabbin workshop and also others as well, but mainly to aircraft maintenance companies including qantas and Ansett when ansett was around. :)

aviation gasket glue for everything !!!

What an absolute unit!
