So has the Z...in fact it's been around a lot longer and always been more reliable then a rotary. Picking between those two cars, I'd much rather trust a Nissan V6 over a rotary anyday. The RX-7 does have better looks though in my opinion, but that's about it.the rx series has been around for a long succsesful time so i give it props

As well as a lighter, more balanced chassis, better handling, oh and its faster to boot.PhYsIcS wrote:The RX-7 does have better looks though in my opinion, but that's about it.
The 13B is as reliable as the owner. It might take slightly more maintenance than a conventional engine, but the only people who tend to say theyre unreliable are either lazy, or have never owned/driven one.

Every good, characterful engine has it's flaw- S50B32- VANOS unit, S54B32- Oil pan, ADU I5T- electrics, 13B -apex seals, 1.8 8v G60- G-Lader's...It proves that the engines are good that they can be remedied with increased maintainance. And before anyone brings up the example of Rover K series, the overheating problem CAN'T be remedied, and they aren't good engines anywayGrez~Supra_RZ-S wrote:As well as a lighter, more balanced chassis, better handling, oh and its faster to boot.PhYsIcS wrote:The RX-7 does have better looks though in my opinion, but that's about it.
