lately ive noticed quite a few people arguing about piston engines being a crapload more reliable, more effiecent (in terms of gas mileage and the mechanics of the engine as well), and easier to work on than rotaries and i tried to argue with them about it, and well i dont really have enough knowladge about them to do it well enough.
and if you disagree or agree with pistons being a more efficent and easier to work on platform than a rotary could you state your reasons? |
rotaries are better. They dont jerk up and down like a piston. Less moving parts, higher reving takes more abuse and the only problems i seen is taht its eats up a lil more gas than pistons and lacks some toruque. BUt what i always say. How many companys are working on improving rotay technology.

its all depends on what u are looking for out of the engine.

I personally like the rotary over a piston engine..however both will turn to **** if not treated correct or tuned the right way.

My mechanic is building a GT3 car in his shop it is powered by a 12A bridgeport. When I asked the owner of the car why. Simply put. More bang for the buck. He said he did the piston engine thing in his racecars and they need to be rebuilt after every 3 or 4 races. He can run 2 to 3 seasons on a well built rotary.
Why did I choose a rotary? If you have to ask you'll never understand. <--I love that phrase. |
i like the rotary because i hate valves and pistons and timing belts and cams and stuff
|
I don't want to get to technical in the general discussion forum. But if it's not a rotor is not a motor to me. I have said this before and I'll say it again. The world goes round and round not up an down. We live in a rotary solar system. What goes around comes around............ We could argue all day it's all up to preference..
