 Mazda Australia Zoom Zoom Rotary Engine
Mazda has always stayed in touch with its buyers and has been a leader in innovation.
A new, compact wet-sump oil lubrication system, making use of the unique layout of the output shaft, and a thin oil pan contribute to the engine's lightweight compact design, which allows the engine to be located lower and further to the rear than ever before.
At the same time, it enables the intake port to be enlarged, increasing engine rotational speeds and power output to levels never-before achieved with a naturally aspirated production rotary engine.

 Dictionary of Automotive Terms Abbreviations
Because automotive internal combustion engines operate more efficiently when their temperature is maintained within narrow limits, the thermostat closes off the flow of coolant from the engine to the radiator until the engine has reached the desired operating temperature.
Efficiency will vary according to engine design, use, etc. If an engine uses a great deal of the heat to produce power, its thermal efficiency would be high.
Found on all Mazda rotary engines and some piston engines (BMW for example) as well.

Rob Muzzy is no stranger to V-Twins, having been instrumental in the development of the Honda 750 Dirt Track Twin that won four Grand National Championships for Honda with Rickey Graham and Bubba Shobert aboard in the 1980’s.

 1000 AAQ - Terms
Although all engines use timing belts, they are more crucial on interference engines; should the timing belt malfunction, the valves and pistons will likely collide.
Most people also agree that the engine must be properly balanced if you want to remove the balance shafts, to eliminate the possibility of long-term engine damage.
Removing them can increase engine output, as the engine doesn't waste energy spinning the shafts.

 Turbo Setups? (POLL: Which is best?) - Forced Induction - Automotive Forums .com- A Message Board for Every Make and Model
When the Toyota Supra TT and the 3rd generation Mazda Twin Turbo were being developed, turbo technology clearly showed an inability to produce a compressor which worked efficiently at both low and high RPM flow ranges.
Actually, twin scroll turbochargers simply have two turbine housing inlets (more correctly a divided single inlet), which is all about conserving exhaust gas energy and minimizing exhaust backpressure.
So that leaves us with engine configuration and exhaust layout to cover, and exactly why one turbo setup may work better vs. another in a given application.

 Project: Twin Turbo 3 Rotor
It is the installation of a rare 3-rotor Eunos Cosmo (2.0 Liter) twin turbo rotary engine in an equally rare 10th Anniversary Edition 1988 Mazda Rx-7 which makes this vehicle a very rare product to be sure.
With the original RX-7 priced at $23,800; with over $12,000 in aerodynamics, brakes, suspension, wheel and tire upgrades; and with over $38,000 in engine and powertrain modifications related to the three rotor powerplant, this project was developed at a documented cost of over $73,800.
The intention of the project was to build a rotary powered street machine which was equal to the torque and power of any large displacement V-8, V-10 or V-12 engined sports car available today.
