Magazines arrived
and keeping on that topic I got given an
original!!! "Rotary Engine" by Kenichi Yamamoto published by Toyo Kogyo in 1971
a work mate found it in our library and thought it appropriate it went to a good home. < Super rare book, last one I seen on E-Gay went for like $375 or so.
Anyway, been flat out catching up with customer orders and car work, so apart from brief test drives on Sundays (1 hr of week where I can scratch my balls) not much opportunity to do a serious test.
I'll get around to scanning the F40 and stock SP test and also post up some performance data of the new specification which I have been putting through durability trials the last few months... Only problem I have encountered (well not really a problem as such) is the normal operating torque capacity of the twin plate carbon clutch. When the friction material is below a certain temperature it will only hold around 600Nm
it needs some use to (higher face temperature) to hold over 700Nm (maximum tq rating).... I will have to start limiting the boost pressure (and power) @ lower engine speeds to hold the immense amount of mid range power/torque the water injection allows the rotary engine to make
