good race of course the FD will win...the renesis it was a good upgrade but is by no means a milestone... it's just a more efficient N/A motor than the N/A 13b, it doesn't have jack on the REW, but that's ok it wasn't meant to be turbo :)

and the fd 1.3 is also a ...hmm....TWIN TURBO!!!! take off those twins and the 8 will kill the 7 N/A vs N/A. 240hp with no turbos is a flop mr FD guy???? i love fds but the renesis motor is far from a flop. its a milestone in rotarys

The RX8 was a flop and should never have been made. Mazda needs to reserect the 7. The 8 was too heavy and is ugly. The 7 was the definition of sports car. msystem761 says,".....fast for a 1.3L."(RX8) But consider that the 7 is also a 1.3L and will kill an 8 all day.

U gotta love teh rottery. Y didnt they ever catch on. With a little more wo rk those could a far superior engine the the typical piston driven engine. Less moving parts=more reliable and less complex.

I agree that forgien cars are better but the rx8 is a RR 1.3 Engine regardless of the special rotary engine its still very fast for a 1.3L.
