Marc,
Your right - it has a great following here. We are a small population so car numbers was never that great, however we have imported most of the motors second hand from Japan. I believe their all turbo type.
I think to myself sometimes, if only we had the motor numbers you have in the US, just for parts.
I came across a chap, at a gas station, who was travelleling back from a drag race meeting, near the airport where I fly. This chap has his own rotary engine business. I couldn't believe how small the engine looked in a drag style chassis. It was so simple clean and neat. Good sized turbo on it naturally. I think he said he was getting something 500 hp out of the 13B - massive.

George,
I did. You guys have a thing for Rotaries there, huh? Closer to Japan?

Marc,
Did you pick up on the Aussie accent.

Not sure I'd like this action in an aircraft, but it's wild...and the
flames
make you stop and think. Sounds like a jet engine on that much boost!
