on a basic level they burn up a lot of oil so you need to change oil way sooner than on a normal engine. You also need to take care of the tips of the triangles inside. That's all I can say for sure. And I don't trust people enough to trust they kept it fed with oil. I just picture some older guy thinking they're telling him that to "scam" him into buying more oil or something and only adding more every 5-6k miles.

>>17788

>An oil and fuel guzzling engine that beats itself to death is interesting.

Piston engines don't gulp oil nor beat themselves to death as standard operation procedure, and if it needs lots of fuel it's either already making or capable of making a fuckton of HP and torque.

>>17792

>Using something that's well known to work over something that's shown time and time again doesn't work is leftism.

No rotary fantard YOU are the leftism.

Now for anyone else that wants to REEEE about LS swaps (it's popular for a reason you retarded contrarians) there's other V8 engines out there, Ford's engines work fine and so do Chrysler's (I'm partial to the LA family) or you can go for the 10K varieties of Inline 4s and boxers that exist if you've got some little Euro-peon or Nip shitbox engine bay that won't take a V8.

The 25 year importation law was a mistake. It should have been 50.

There's a saying, not exactly verbatim, but it's to the same effect.

"In order to afford one Ferrari, you must be able to afford two Ferraris."

i.e. the one Ferrari will cost you so much in keeping it on the road, maintenance and repair that it will eventually exceed the original value of what you paid for the car, and if you didn't have that much disposable income to begin with, you'll soon find yourself in economic dire straits.

The same applies for a car with an unconventional engine, not just a rotary, but anything that's rare or expensive to repair/replace nowadays. Can't afford the repair bills? Don't own it. A car is not a status symbol. There are many other vehicles which appeal to your level of expertise and mechanical knowledge that are in the same price and/or historic bracket. AE86s double their value every day thanks to Initial D, and they're a literally a Corolla in drag all the way down to the chassis. Starions have the 4G63, which as you may know was Mitsubishi's performance engine for over 25 years, from the Evo 0 (Lancer Turbo) through to the Evo 9.

>It's perfectly ok to put an electric battery in an E-Type because the XK6 is a notoriously bad engine to deal with

You are on the same level as the cucks that gut old electronics and stuff a Raspberry Pi in there because it's "cute" and/or "quirky". Eventually you'll be the guy that takes an Xbox dev rig and wipes what may have been the last surviving examples of crucial development files that could have greatly helped out the emulation scene.

TL;DR back to Jalopnik. Or suicide. Whichever you prefer.

Good thing console games are meh to crap so nothing of value would be lost, even if for some insane reason I decided to buy/look for a weakass 20 year old computer.

>>17809

>Known hanger queens don't deserve consideration only the scrapper's torch.

And known Cultural Marxists (such as yourself) don't deserve consideration, only the rope come DOTR.

Like this anon >>17811 says, stay the fuck away from anything that isn't a current year Mustang.

Much like a white woman who whored her pussy out for a nigger, it doesn't matter how "clean" you keep a car with a different engine than the one it was manufactured with. Even if you took something like a classic 911, shoved a battery/LS in the back, rebuilt the interior to be more "ergonomic" and "comfy" (i.e. faggy and modern), and installed the inevitable self-driving conversion kit that will probably be forced on the rest of us come 2030, then you will get mercilessly lowballed by any true enthusiast you tried to sell that piece of shit mutt of a car to. No one cares that it's mechanically sound when it's a mongrelized mashup of different cars.

Here's a good real life example; the AMG 300SL. For 10 years AMG offered an upgrade to any owner of a classic 300SL. 11 people took the bait. Original SLs sell at auction for 1.2 million apiece. The last time this thing hit auction it reached only 800k. Despite being superior in every conceivable performance factor. Despite being more reliable. Despite being made from more exotic materials like carbon fibre. And above all, despite being significantly rarer. Because believe it or not, that's exactly how much it's worth. Turns out when you shit all over a classic with your "improvements", you reap the rewards. And that's a 300SL, the creme de la creme of automobiles. Mass-produced japshit from an era prior to its peak desirability (same goes for the likes of the A70 Supra and R31 Skyline) will have no chance, not even in 50 years. Faggot ricers already had their rude awakening when it turns out 20k of upgrades doesn't magically add 20k worth of value. Retrofitters will have theirs too. That 80 year old jalopy being held together by thin strings of rust is worth more than the "restoration" where the only original part that remains is the chassis.

>Good thing console games are meh to crap so nothing of value would be lost, even if for some insane reason I decided to buy/look for a weakass 20 year old computer.

Got it, so you're one of those insufferable kikes that try to shill your failing company's shitty flatscreens whenever there's a CRT thread. The anons with PVMs and Trinitrons will still be enjoying their games long after your obsolescent 4D 8K curved screen Smart OLED that cost you $2000 out of your wagecuck fund becomes a 9th generation can of Pepsi.

Oh and it turns out I missed this little gem from >>17793

>Now for anyone else that wants to REEEE about LS swaps (it's popular for a reason you retarded contrarians) there's other V8 engines out there, Ford's engines work fine and so do Chrysler's (I'm partial to the LA family)

<Now for anyone else that wants to REEEE about McDonald's beef in your fine dining (it's popular for a reason you retarded contrarians) there's other fast food choices out there, KFC's meat works fine and so does Burger King's (I'm partial to the Angus family)

How about I don't want your shitty fast food meat in my meal when it's Kobe that I want and Kobe that I paid a premium for? There's no fucking point garnishing it with hand-prepared sushi and other Japanese staples when you slap that processed slab of chickenfeed on my plate.

Between the likes of you, bottomfeeding journalists that live on Elon Musk's dick fungus, and the jalopshitters gleefully celebrating the death of the human driver, I have grown sick and tired of my hobby being torn apart by outsiders who don't fucking belong. All I wanted to do was play games. All I wanted to do was drive cars. You fuckers are slowly taking that away from me and giving it to the retards who just want the cheap rush of dopamine without having to work for it. Please do keep your lack of arguments flooding in though, you're providing my only source of entertainment in the dried-up well that is 8ch /o/.

>>17811

>You'd be the kind of guy to paint over the Mona Lisa

I'd actually be more inclined to burn it because of it's legitimizing value to the (((art community))).

>>17812

That was a solution for OP since he stated he liked the car but the engine was a concern for him, I couldn't care less about anything made by Mazda/rotary powered.

That doesn't/never will work.

I drive the vehicle to destruction, I don't care about money laundering (((enthusiasts))) beyond how many I could fit in an oven.

This is what I'm using, infact it's the first and so far only computer I've bought, runs all the games I play just fine.

Not yours either, faggot.

Ah. Now I understand. You're a fucking goon. The truth comes out at last. Do say hi to Lowtax on the way back to SA for me, will ya?

Are you aware that whoever sold you your computer has massively ripped you off? I'd be amazed if that piece of shit can even run Crysis, given it's 12 years old now. Certainly can't play BeamNG at max settings. I would've made another really long post like my last two, but now that I understand how long it would have taken to load on a computer like yours I aim to keep this one quite a bit shorter.

<Intel

>HE PERSONALLY FELLATES THE KIKES

Fuck you and your Israeli hardware, move over for superior German engineering. Hope you enjoy the spyware provided on behalf of Mossad. Bet you have Steam and/or Dickscord on your computer too.

This is the worst thread /o/ has had for a long while.

Finally someone with sense appears.

>>17819

>Not yours either, faggot.

What's YOUR point then?

OP likes the CAR but has issue with the ENGINE I advised him in a solution (get rid of the rotary) to his problem, but the solution is obviously TRIGGERING to rotaryfags.

>He paid $2k for those specs

I see you can't read, so I'm not gonna read yours.

>>17820

>Please delete internet. And yourself while you're at it.

Lrn2read, you got each and every one of those points completely wrong.

>Fuck off, /pol/, go back there.

Hello /leftypol/ hows the gulag you call a country today?

>Now you're just turning a blind eye to reality.

By the time they make it good enough to compete with Humans we'll be either in a dystopian hellhole made by (((them))) so it wouldn't matter or the population has gotten fixed so it no longer has issues with driving themselves and wouldn't waste money on such a thing.

>Now now, OP talked about rotaries, you're derailing.

Mr. Cow way ugly knees up there wanted to Jap it up in his comment so he get's heat for it.

>>17818

>>17825

>Faggots unironically admitting they're casuals on an enthusiast board

Both of you can fucking leave our hobby and join the hordes of normalfags who do the same unintentionally. Imagine if there were artists who used their paintings as doormats and coasters, and upon being told that they shouldn't do that and use a regular mat/plate like a normal human being, they chimped out like an uneducated nigger at their objectively bad lifestyle choices, because the notion of displaying their artwork means it isn't being "used", yet taking it from place to place and keeping them on your desk/on your wall at work every day is too much of a chore for them in case it gets damaged. Like okay dude if you want to eat shit then go ahead, I heard the (((chosen))) like that sort of thing anyway. Just don't get pissed if none of us want to join you.

>w-why you criticize m-muh solution ;_;

Because it's a reddit-tier solution, as I highlighted in the original post. Only people I've ever seen discussing LS swaps are redditors. Because they are mechanically inept soyboys who only want a car for the image, not for what it is. It's why they always send their car to a garage instead of wrenching on it themselves. Because learning how a car works does not interest them. All they want is sparkle and vroom.

On reddit leasing a brand-new Mazda 3 is considered a god-tier move for whenever you want a first car, a daily driver (i.e. you can't afford/are too scared to drive your real car on a daily basis), or something your pussywhipper wife that cucks you insists on having you drive so she can give the keys to your Dad's Firebird to Jamal every weekend. Over here you are rightfully laughed at for throwing thousands of dollars down the drain on something that will never recuperate its manufacturing cost in 100 years, will most likely break down for good within 10, and will become totally obsolete by 15. And what for, because it's "clean"? Because you don't have to worry about anything going wrong?

>not reading filenames

>when you quoted my greentext about a shitty, planned obsolescent monitor and replied akin to "yeah, so what?" as though you owned something like that

You can't call out someone's reading comprehension when yours is evidently at a far lower level.

<heh the poorfag actually has something higher spec than me let me just pretend to not use this argument

Lest we forget, it was your tardrage that brought your PC specs into the argument to begin with. And if you're gonna criticize mine being hard to read, what sort of faggy childlike interface is on your specsheet anyway? Steam? You can't look at a diagram unless it's filled with colors and distracting little images?

>out of arguments, he just begins to spam politically fuelled images with no rhyme or reason

What point are you trying to make, since the most likely anon in this thread that bleeds red is none other than yourself? You just trying to use up all those free images your (((benefactors))) gave you to blend in with the rest of us? After all it was the commies who took the "car as a commodity" philosophy to heart with the likes of the Lada and Trabant. Think about it, a car you can beat up without worry, drive to the ends of the Earth, then discard like any other product. It's your fucking dream car. You've already firmly established yourself as an arbiter of Cultural Marxism, since you openly wish to destroy not only white culture, but the culture of our greatest ally, Japan. As Zynkyoku Haku once said:

The Jews fear the Samurai.

And you are a Jew. Using (((Intel))) products is more than proof enough of that fact. If you aren't on the JIDF's payroll, they're exploiting you and your machine for free thanks to the vulnerability they successfully hid in over 20 years' worth of hardware. Dump that Jewish trash at once.

I'd write more but I feel pity for the strain your fingers must feel channelling all that rage into pinprick-sized chiclet keys while you uncomfortably hunch over your bed or your desk. That said, do us all a favor and fuck off. Whether it's to another site or this plane of existence. Leave. You don't fucking belong here.

>>17828

Same as AMD, and no I'm not junking somethings that WORKS (have I mentioned that's the complete polar opposite to cultural marxism/communism enough?, or do I need to keep hammering it in?) to go chasing after /tech/s latest and dankest meme hardware/software that'll TOTALLY keep glow niggers out of your stuff.
