From what I hear is that there like legos and you can keep stacking them.

HOLY CRAP!!! thats freakin' badass. i thought it was that white super custom 4 rotor rex, but that one was from japan.

as for the maker, mazda made a 4rotor engine for their Lemans car. i dont think this is the same motor though. like heavy said, you can stack them, so thats probably what they did.

yeah if youve ever seen a rotary broke down the housings just keep extending out. But then you have to make custom intake and exhaust but that point your a race car engineer :)

you have to weld eccentric shafts, create a new oil pan, create a center housing, double the oil and water pumps.not quite legos. =)buuuut.as you can see. when you mod an e-shaft correctly, you can rev MUCH faster and higher, especially as by welding 180 degrees, you can eliminate counter balancing.not to mention this car has a HUGE bridgey or maybe a PP.but still sexy as hell =)

i love my rb25det s13, but there is just something magical about the little rotary engines. I will never sell my 87 RX-7 Turbo.
