what makes a rotary engine better than a piston?? to me its just a personal choice for the driver.

Rotary engines are far superior to Pistons. They don't preform better necessarily but that have more potential. The down side parts are UBER expensive, so are any repairs. They are also easier to blow.

i still believe its personal preference. i personally love the quick and insanely high rev limit.

i dont care how much power it puts down, i just love rotary lol

as for how long they will last? its all about how you maintain them.. ive read of people reaching 300k miles on them. I did a swap on an integra because the engine died at 300k+ miles.

personal preference bro =)

i can say the same thing to why have a:

V6?
Flat-6
inline-6
boxer engines
VR6<3
inline-4
twin rotary, etc.

they all have different layouts. ahah

Rotaries are Shocked Question

LIfters? and what, three moving parts?

Its just a bunch of jibberish jammed into a triangle.
