I know some people don't like them but i had an RX-8 for a while and would love to put s rotary wankel engine in the roadster, or better still the single seater. 231bhp upto 9500rpm, doesn't have a great deal of torque but is small and light and loads of power - cheaper than S2000 aswell.

My brother had an s2000 and i had an integra for a while and they are amazing engines to get that power n/a, but i wouldnt want one in a seven style car unless you are jensen button! in an S2000 they are very very twitchy especially if its wet :eek: never mind in something half the weight :D They are only 150bhp before the vtec comes in so the cross over point upto 240 is quite impressive in the honda, i imagine it would be very interesting in a seven style car :eek:

There was a chap racing a Seven with S2000 engine and box over here. It was just scary fast and breathed fire on braking. The BEC Busa boys couldn't keep up but the last track day I was at a couple of months ago it put a leg out.

i fully understand where you,re coming from
Fabby and me went to a hill climb earlier this year and a guy was racing a silva with an s2000 motor when it came on cam it just went ballistic shook its tail left and right and then scorched away
looked and sounded a beast in a little car you just had to love it........
its no wonder the ariel atom is so blinking fast i,m told its the same motor with a supercharger on it ....FFS..
mental love it

Looks like a GTS Panther to me by the way the body work joins and the style of that cage...
