Wankel engine “What ever happened to the Wankel engine?” 2:40:32 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “Replaced by engine nacelles on the warp drive.” 2:48:13 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “Ford bought Mazda, that's what.” 2:50:01 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “it'll be in the new rx-8.” 2:55:42 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “Wanked off and shot it's rod.” 2:56:31 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “They actually green-lighted it? Thank god.” 2:58:02 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “I owned an '85 RX-7 GLS and an '87 Turbo. Man those were great cars!” 3:02:12 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “It origonally flopped because the seal technology wasn't good enough when it was created so it had lots of problems keeping compression. That put set it back on the research table since other more promising things like dual over head cams and advances in emmission technology were giving the standard engine the same performance of the Wankle. Just recently have they started to adapt the new technology to the wankle to revive it. With the new seals available, the engine should be pretty bad ass.” 3:31:42 PM 11/15/01 RE: Wankel engine “Yeah, my Turbo lost compression after 185,000 miles.
