graveltrapp Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 The Kiwi's love there Rorary engines. For breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, and even in there 1200's. I am not a fan of Genetic cross breeding but if it works for you show it to the world and see what they think. http://www.speedhunters.com/2010/11/magazine_blog_nzpc_gt_gt_13b_datsun_1200/ Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Even the Datsun engineers fitted rotary engines to B110s. Driving report from Wheels magazine, 1973: 112mph and still pulling hard ... Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Nice car. I like rotaries, it a shame they weren't developed enough early on to be real comp for 2/4 strokes. Anyone else notice how mangled the steering wheel screws are? Gorgeous car then post a close up of that lol odd choice. Quote Link to comment
old-tin Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 ggzilla do you know what capacity rotary engine that was? Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 "The swept volume displacement is 2 rotors of 500cc each" per http://datsun1200.com/modules/mediawiki/index.php?title=Rotary_engine So basically the same size as the Mazda 10A (2 x 491) Quote Link to comment
graveltrapp Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Rotary, The replacement for displacement! datsun 1200 UTE shows up a couple of times Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 R100 was just a Mazda 1200 with a rotary engine swap. Quote Link to comment
