200 to the wheels IF you spend money on all the possible mods you can slap on the car and a NICE streetport. For more than that you loose drivability.

I have a friend with a ITS engine in his 90GTU that he Autocrosses. He put down 190RWHP. With stock exhaust and stock intake.

Rotor-Rican 09-30-2003 09:47 PM

i was thinking of doing the bridge port, what do u think

mazdadrifter 09-30-2003 10:38 PM

300 hp all motor on a n/a is all but unheard of, your gonna have to port and such anyways, it'd be cheaper to do the tII swap and it'll probably last longer than a bridge port tuned to the same hp



i think ur pullin our chain tho

Jesus Padilla runs 10's w/ a 2 rotor N/A....I think that guy from RX-7.com does too...thats probably 300-400plus in a gutted light 1st gen....

easy like how?

whiplash 10-01-2003 02:07 PM

I know they outlawed the 3 rotor....bunch of BS in my opinion! I heard he is close to the 9's in a 2 rotor N/A..... cool huh?





I always thought a built high compression N/A 3 rotor would be the ticket on the road course... I may do that someday. i just don't care for the location of a 3 rotor when bolted up...kinda messes up the mid-front engine theory https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png still totally cool though

btw I never said it was impossible, just all but unheard of, money can do amazing things if used by truckloads

320 rwhp at 12k rpm, not very usable for a street car

pengaru 10-01-2003 09:43 PM

Perfectly usable with proper gearing.



maybe you havent noticed all the street driven crotch rockets running around with 14,000+ rpm redlines?

FCmaniac 10-02-2003 08:17 AM

Here's a link to an FC that is running close to 110mph in the 1/4 NA. With that mph, he is probably around 250 whp.. awesome.



NA

whats you're point?





can you explain to me why this would not be streetable with the proper gearing?



the only problem I can imagine is noise.

i don't think thats a problem if your idle is set high enough, and of course, gearing to suit the power band.

I'm not a genius, I'd prefer people not listen to me and question everything.



if you start coming by my apartment regularly I might end up putting you to work https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png

PP is the example of everything NOT streetable. You have to rev the piss out of it to get the power which is terrible for wear, and reliability.



If you are familiar with the PP motors they don't start to come alive untill 6k.



If you want to only use your first 3 gears, and install 5.?? or 6.?? to 1 rear end to prove your point go right ahead. But then try to compare that to a turbo??



Remember I never said it was impossible.

pengaru 10-02-2003 05:13 PM

maybe the term 'streetable' is too subjective.



you have to rev the piss out of any NA 13B to go anywhere quickly.

my_jdm_rx7 10-02-2003 05:42 PM

I don't know about the PP...but, I'm trading in my streetport for a bridge..and I drive my car everyday. Built right, and tuned right, streetability and the life of the motor shouldn't be a concern.

MazdaEnthused 10-02-2003 05:44 PM

ok quick moment to teach jason that diff. between street port and bridge porting please..
