I know the old rotory was only 1.3L. It was cool to see him lift the front wheels in the one shot. bet with wider/stickyier tires it could do wheelies all day long. ---

> [@The\_Russian](#): > > Arent rotaries really light regardless? Can be with aluminum sideplates. A stock turbo 13b fully dressed is nowhere near light. The 1.3L figure is quite deceiving. It’s more of a 2.6L V6 equivalent or so… ---

Looks like it’s got a slight rear weight bias… ---

I dont mean Rotaries are 100 pounds. But For the power they make, the power to weight ratio is really good. My 2.3 liter I4 in my tempo weighed like 250 pounds with everything on it and make about 60 hp.
