Mazda V8 Rx7 drifter - Episode 01 (THE PILOT)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 лют 2013
- This is my "pilot" to a new series I want to make this fall.
In this episode we meet the drifter Joachim Waagard with his V8 Mazda RX7 that he has built and already had one season drifting in. I hope to make more episodes of Joachim and some other people for my series. Everything with horsepower to stance perfection.
If I can get some sponsors into the mix, I hope to make 10-12 episodes this fall.
So share, like and subscribe to help me!

![Mazda Rx7 4-rotor race car. The making of a Defined Autoworks Beast. [Offical Video]](/img/n.gif)
It's great to see that people do what they love, and yet take the time to share it with us. This will be a good series.
Guys look at Mad Mikes 4 rotor RX7... sure its sick and sounds sick but he constantly runs into reliability issues... with Mad Mike's drift machine an engine rebuild is probably necessary after every drift event. With an lsx based engine you don't have that problem. Power delivery is good, wide torque band, and reliability for days. These factors coupled up with the light twitchy frame of the RX7 FD would probably make one of the smartest, but competitive platforms for competitive drifting. This guy has used his brain.
a sleek Japanese body with brutal american heart. this is truly, a magnificent drifting machine!!
Every RX7 with a V8 on youtube never fails to have rotary purists in the comments section, saying that it's ruined or not even an RX7 anymore.......Y'all can shut up now. We get it. You don't like it.....Move on with your lives.
This is why I want to go with a differen't engine besides a rotary... I love rotary but I love the rx-7 more.. we all need to move on with our lives.
i own an ls2 rx7 as well and your car is basically what i plan to do with mine one day good shit man this is an inspiring video for me.
MUCH LOVE FROM THE STATES.
Love the V8 bark!! Tough as!
Incredible as it is all equal one around of the world… this is Drift!!!
I know the RX7 wasn't made for an LS engine, and the LS engine wasn't made for the RX7, but goddammit, it sure looks like these two get along just fine.
Your car is stunning, I love how its wingless.
You chose the right car brother! FD all the way!
The stance BMW video is still my favorite of your vids! I bet I have viewed it 20+ times haha keep up the great work

You are awesome
Feit bil, Rååå kjøring!! følger med spent på fleire videoer til sesongen :D

Herlig video!
Fantastisk video!! stå på videre :)
Tommel opp til både Marius og Joachim! Dette er desidert noen av de råeste RX7'ene jeg vet om! Det at den har en sjåfør som greier å ratte den bra også, gjør hele greia perfekt! :) Ser fram til å se denne bilen på bane i år igjen!
Awesome work, even if it ain't a rotor, still a cool FD.
Bra video som vanlig (y) ;)
gleder meg til og se denne bilen i aksjon neste sesong :) forhåpentligvis blir bilen vår grei og kjøre :)
Hilsen Morgan Venli.
Utrolig bra Marius! Digger klippingen og feelingen på filmen :D
great video, wanna see more! I hope u get sponsors so u can continue making them:) hälsningar från Sverige
Perfect V8 ;)
Veldig bra film ,
Virkelig bra filma og satt sammen, håper det kommer flere filmer av samme type fortløpende! :-) Sjåføren får ha lykke til i årets sesong også, moro at det blir noen 7'ere på banen...
The FD is a good chassis, two bad is 20yrs old now. Hope you stich welded the chassis when you took a part.
Drit tøft, lykke til i år!
LS2 has lower end torque which is desired in drifting, it's reliable, easy to get a hell of a lot of power out of, and so much easier to get parts for.
Its insane how upset people get just because this guy did what he wanted with his car. If you don't like the fact that he swapped the rotary for a V8 then just keep it to yourself there's no use in hating on this guy for doing what he is obviously very passionate about, and i'm very doubtful that your opinion is going to change his.
Fredrikstad Represent! :D
dude love the car want the front end tube frame
a quad rotor would be better because a quad will spool up some of the biggest turbos around, and it will spool them very quick, this provides a massive and nearly flat torque curve and also it sounds better :)
Holy moly!!! Im 25 and i dont have anything cool like that.....sigh.
Etwas geiler video mann. I thought he was much older than 23 since he can afford running and having such a car lol.
Torque is near the same (mind that the 3rotor wheights the half).
Sound is absolutely freaking,
Hvor mye penger behøver du egentlig for å få ting til å gå?
Hvor får du inspirasjonen til musikkvalgene dine fra?
@dolud Why use sauce on your food when it already taste delicius?
mad mike! mad mike! mad mike!
Rått man ! Kommer jeg til å se deg og din RX7 på rudskogen eller ?
ford escord cosword be good in drift ??
Hvor mye fikk bilen koste deg alt opp?
nope, american v8 has more torque and power but quad rotor just sounds absolutely amazing the exhaust note is phenomenal
Ice cream paint job!
How did he get such a lot of angle from an FD ? What mods?
there are kits for steering angles (hubs, knuckles, arms) which allow up too 70 degrees lock
nothing like reliable power. I love love love my rotary but honestly if i was drifting like this guy it would be a v8 or a 2jz.
Subscribed! ...Som det heter på godt norsk;)
In terms of high-RPM, rotary engine perform better, yeah... that, and the relatively high redline.
Thing is, rotaries really struggle for torque, and like it or not, a good acceleration is MUCH more important than top speed.
And BTW, I'm a fan of rotaries over other engines... I just don't blind myself to other options
three words: Low End Torque
I agree, keeping an rx7 as a rotary engine is much more respectable. Put your v8 in an s14.
name of rims?
where is the rotary ? :(
Mb battles thats the name of the rims.
totally true laGantoise like would some one take a corvette and instal a viper srt10 motor in it just stupid if you ask me !destroying the pure essence of a one of a kind car lol
23? damn. where do you even start? i want to get into this kind of career but i dont know what to do. right now i am trying to get my certificate and my ase. shit i feel like a failure. 23.. sigh..
Because it's rotary and this is Mazda. Men du er nordmann, så du er tilgitt!
Gromeste RX-7 jeg har sett, liker utseende på denne bedre en på mad mike sin :)
i would have kept the rotary or gone with like a 2jz
much lighter than a big V8. 13b only weights 77 kg so that would make it 154 kg with another 13b attached to it.
Good Video, but why a V8 ?
3 Rotor Turbo would be perfekt.
Watch Mad Mike!
Not an RX7 anymore, now it's an X7. :( nice looks though
maybe it would pay homage to the original engine that came with the car! Obviously a quad rotor would perform just as well as the v8, some people think that its sacrilege! but hey its a matter of opinion, and if you dont have the resources to work with a rotary, then hey slap a v8 in there!
In every aspect you could think off....
i understand everything else.. but "different" :P
:D
I agree with Christian Ortiz bout the motor change, sad sad move
Better gas mileage. Why do you think the Mazda 787B won the 1991 Le Mans series?
NOOOO!!! YOU NEED MORE 20B IN YOUR LIFE!
Should have kept the rotary.
its cole trickle! lol car guy joke.
4 rotor would of been a better choice lighter nd more torque... but not hatting on the v8 if i did a swap it would be a 2jz
2JZ is MUCH heavier than an LS
V8サウンドって厳ついなぁ・・・。
Because thats what HE wanted to do?
should have kept the rotary :(
its true mazder rotory dont have much toque:(
Alt er bedre med 26B
nice car but personally i will always love import and turbos wayy to much to ever swap a v8
Ask Madmike....
Quad Rotary would of been better.. .
