Rob: "Shows everything."
Rotory guru's around the globe: "You weren't supposed to do that."
They have only themselves to blame. There was an era when these engines were unfairly accused by morons and shills, the "gurus" should've come forth, just like Dahm's doing. What did they do? They sat back and ate it. So they can keep doing just that.
pac performance has done bigger and shows everything that goes into the down fall of this style quad rotor and have the answers to fix it with true full billet plates, housings and rotors
Seems like I saw Promaz assembling a billet 4 rotor with center bearings somewhere on UA-cam ...
On one hand, I respect the fuck out of him for doing this. On the other hand, I'm sad because I know lesser powers will probably use this knowledge selfishly rather than be as generous and caring for the rotary community as Rob is.
I see the dorito mafia is going to arrange an unfortunate accident..
When they took the engine apart piece by piece it felt like a national geographic episode. Really calming lol
All it needed was David Attenborough narrating it 😂
Totally agreed! Felt the same
This is why i have my autographed rob dahm shirt on my wall, to remind me he never lets anything stop the dream from coming to fruition.
still haven't gotten mine ;-;
Shit ordered mine in October still haven’t gotten it
I've got 2 of the 1240, and I wear both! One for in the shop, one for on the couch lol
Really? I find he does everything to stop his dream from coming to fruition by never finishing a project like you raced Ken Block 3 times and got smoked, and maybe that wouldn't had been the case had Rob actually finished this build that's going past 5 years now just collecting Ad Revenue over and over like you got 6 projects Rob Dahm, finish 1 or 2 at a time but not 6. Can't believe that this RX-7 still has no floor/transmission tunnel, everything its missing is just ridiculous this was supposed to be done like at the end of 2019 I remember you promising us you'd be done, how longs it gonna continue it is fuckin 2021 and still lmfaoo...... just collecting as much Ad Revenue
@@r4ng3k03r1 you don’t have to watch him then. but damn you’re salty and ignorant as fuck for this lmao. Rob was quite literally doing it all himself. Out of his own pocket for years. He finally got advertisement revenue and a team to help him this year, after YEARS of trying to get exposure. and even if it took him 5 years he still did it. More than you can ever say you did.
Can't believe this ridiculously awesome content is free! Love this shit!
Fancy seeing you here!
Didn't think to see you here but then again it's all about the rotary engines baby.
Road kill was such a sell out to discovery. They missed the UA-cam boom and are not even relevant anymore on a paid subscription service.
@@stevenplaskett7728 where did road kill come from did someone delete a comment they wrote ?
Ha your hear and I was just going to see if you had posted a video to watch now just watched rob small world lol
I seriously hope your AWD RX7 gets added to a racing game like Forza Horizon 4, The Crew 2, etc (if that'll ever happen)
Oh it will. it has to. it’s legendary. We the people have to make that happen
Maybe fh5 once it gets the carbon body
I've wanted this car in a game like assetto corsa or something so I can drive it myself.
This is how my oil looks after Ken. That sounds so wrong hahahahaha
@@stevebell5231 lol
Just make sure UPS doesn’t handle shipping for the next rotary!
I just sent my drug stash before police came at my house by UPS, no need to worry about getting caught :)
Crazy how small that engine is yet makes so much power
Rob, Thank you! It is refreshing to see someone be able to " put the ego aside" and just say what it is good or bad. Always love your content!
"Theres no secrets this time..." ..10 seconds later, Rob is giving us a look at his toilet...
Nothing but 100% transparency. Down to the pants.
Just forgot a 20 min explanation on how it flushes
JP Performance: Write that down! Write that down!
wait did i miss something ?
@@val3ball Jp Performance is a german car youtuber and he now also builds a rx7, which is his first rotary
@@val3ball and he told us, his viewers to send greetings from him XD
PepoG
@@gigiloko @florian ok thanks
I knew the engine would be perfectly fine, just like Mazda's 4 rotor in the 787b. People don't understand the true potential of rotaries and are instantly turned off by their "unreliability". I'm glad there are people like Rob Dahm so I can refer them to him.
I just wanna see Rob beat on this 4 Rotor and get excited about it 🔥
Agree I want to see it just drive. Like highway driving and pulls.
@@t1bud42 rob is always doing thing behind the scenes so I know it will come
Glad to see your doing well, I asked you professional advice about careers a few years and you wrote me back. I’m now in a job that pays 3 times as much and happy, I got my turbo Miata completely done and absolutely perfect, thanks for the help.
What did you ask him though? Im curious now, lol
This man takes "built not bought" to an insane amount
Love the diablo taking up two spots like a proper lambo driver
Most kids dream is to be in the hall of fame, I dream to be rob dahm
Who wants to be in the HoF? 💀
Excuse me uhhhhh but have you tried cooking?
Anyone else hearing the cameraman breathe?😂😂😂
It's the beard guy
Yes it’s terribly annoying!
@@ers3889 Not enough to make this video not deserve a good like.
8:40 theres a caption from the editor
When is that 6 rotor coming around again? Really want to see that, very interesting.😎✌️
As if 4 wasn’t enough😂
He only has the shaft, needs a while to get all the pieces
I wonder how a 6 rotor will sound
@@kessler0815 probably like the cannon in a warthog
@@kessler0815 there are a couple running ones, best is the one in NZ (that shop afaik has made every running 6-rotor E-shaft in existence). There are a few clips of it running and driving, it sounds like a monster
Rob saying "THIS IS THE SECRET SAUCE"
My ass clicking on the video to see if it ends there
Rob I can't trust you man 🥺
Loving this content!
It's pretty amazing how pristine the insides were after all that abuse, and I think it dispels a lot of myths about reliability once enough people see this video (and others like it).
Keep doing the detailed teardowns and buildups, I'm learning something new every time
the rx7 brings a smile to my face through a video. not many cars do that. in person must be insane
Never seen one in person?
rotaries have that effect, I love my RX8.
I live vicariously through Rob. So awesome to see the ground he’s breaking.
Very quickly turning into the best UA-cam channel. Keep up with updates Rob. I am soo stoked for the second generation of this beast.
Just want to say thank you to Rob Dahm for the content and inspiration.
He got me into rotaries, just got my first fd3s!!
Needs a lot of work, but she's definitely worth it and I'm lovin every second.
Well done on the Valvoline plug, you're a natural!
Watching you tear down that 4 rotor was like watching Boss Ross. Such a beautiful engine.
Damn you gave us all the sauce today. Congrats I've been waiting a long time for this build to be Race Ready. Its really in a league of its own
The fact that you care for that cat is the best part! All the love from Germany my man!
Love the variety of your builds and "Gung Ho, I'll do it/ figure it out myself" attitude you adopted after dealing with too many shops. It would be cool to see you do a full peripheral ported engine with a Dahm built and engineered CNC'd intake manifold. I just saw the one from Pro-Jay for 13b and its looks like a piece of art.
Ayyyy dios mio. Daddy Dahm blessing us with some EarGasms
🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Got my little piece of the 4 rotor with my shirts today so excited I was lucky enough to get some. Full jar of oil with about 6 shards of windshield. Can’t wait to she what comes next the Ahura.
@20:56 Nice, very nice. Thanks for sharing with us Car people, whether rotary or non-rotary The content n knowledge is what is key here & I'm sure not just me but we truly appreciate it. 👌
Rob the 🐱 whisperer 😂 good job on being a humanitarian 🤟🏻
As far as I'm concerned this is the coolest damn car on the planet.
New to the understanding of rotary engines. SO AWSOME, THIS IS IMPRESSIVE! IM WATCHING YOU GUYS ARE DOING!! VERY MOTIVATED TO GET UP AND CREATE SOMETHING!! 👍🏼
I’m so happy you take care of the kitties!!! You’re a good dude Rob
Me this entire video: Did I leave the water on somewhere???
This engine is so insane! I fucking love it!
That is one badass 3-stroke engine! Rotaries are off the scale simple engines.......that one has 5 major moving parts(4 rotors and an eccentric shaft). Love it, keep the content coming!
I really want Rob to do a video called, "So you picked up your first rotary," and he goes into detail on what you can do(short of opening the motor unless necessary) to get the most reliability out of it.
14:13 "Can I make this claim?"
I'm really excited about the 8 wheel Vargas rebuild
Sooo excited for the C8 build!
I always thought Rob had way more subscribers. Thanks for the video brother and keep up the fine work!
The camera man is doing some pretty intense breathing lol
2:40 this is the first time the motors been out..........Since the last time it was out. ;-)
Even. More. Power. This dude is building a rocketship with wheels.
I was worried for a bit there. I hadn't seen a video in a while, and history has shown that when Rob Dahm doesn't post for a while, something's definitely wrong. Glad to see you back!
Drinking game: take a shot everytime Rob makes a phalic reference
Might not be able to finish the video...
@@rya3190 not likely
That clip at the beginning is priceless!
Thats so cool with all the ball bearings!! never really thought that they could have such a lkargew impact on a build!
Absolutely one of the most beautiful car designs ever
all imma say is rotorykhana😬🔥
He "doesn't need to sell the oil to anyone" yet has a 3+ minute commercial in the middle of the video.
I love Rob Dahm for his awesome job and his team❤️❤️
Great video Rob! REally respect your desire to be open and not keep secrets. Our community needs more like you. Cheers :)
18:16 see! late night anime does make you stronger.
I'd love to see this Whoop the Crap out of the HOONICORN V2 Car!
All it takes is more driver knowledge and reliability testing...
They ran against him and said “ok that’s enough of that, too close to losing, time to only race half the power from here on out!”
If he could get the power under control. You gotta understand those other cars are very refined and probably a few hundred thousand dollars invested. It's a finished body of work....robs is like barely to halfway....get off his back people
Can't hide the rotary Fart in a milo can sound 🤣🤣 ,love the series 6 rx7 look from day 1🔥🔥 mazda nearly killed itself with the rx8 decision-making 🤦
Such a simple and effective design. Incredible.
Cool! Thanks for sharing that. Really neat!
Am I crazy, or did Rob just call a _NEEDLE BEARING_ a Ball Bearing?
When archeologists look back on the ICE age, the rotary will be sort of like the dinosaurs that were starting to sprout feathers -- going in the right direction, but not quite there yet. My mind was blown years ago, by the way.
Great content Rob! It's EPIC!
Love the hard work man, keep it up 🤟🏼🤙🏼
4:33 did you guys hear what he said?
I find it funny that that’s the biggest socket he has seen
😂😂😂
The most work I've ever done on an auto engine was switching out the engine from a totalled Samurai to one with blow out piston heads. Both before and after that experience I have only ever changed oil.
I tell you this to impress upon you-I did not expect to watch this video through. But I did.
Really, inexplicably fascinating.
love this channel 👑
That's pure porn Rob! Thanks for sharing this with the world, can't wait for the next chapter!
It is porn, hence the sperm comments
Says 10 secound ago I'm here early 🤣
Every time I see that big arse 54mm socket (or the flywheel-nut) in my toolbox it brings back some awesome FC memories. Wish I still had that car.
Your camera is such good quality that even when I have the video at a low quality, it still shows pretty clear
Who is the guy building the engine?
That looked like a roller bearing why he call it a ball bearing
This is the content I seriously needed today
Love your awesome builds keep them coming
You have a 2, 3, 4 and 6 rotor engine. You only need a 1 rotor engine
5 rotor
@@MiGujack3 I think that is impossible to balance a 5 rotor.
@@mysteryguy7716 Not with that attitude
How we make 1400+ HP with a Rotary Engine.
1. A LOT of money
With settlement money from UPS or was that FED EX for losing the part. then someone steals out of car and tries to sell on craistlist or marketplace.
Love your content Rob. Can't wait for more. 4 rotor C8, and the 6 rotor.
I wish the six rotor was going into the c8
Good to see you wearing the correct hoodie now!
Congrats to Everyone Who is early and who found this comment”. 💙
Nah
Lol
i love how clean everything is looking under the hood
YESSSS hes back baby
This only got a thumbs up for that ridiculous smile on robs face during the opening slow mo. Cheers man.
Nice progress!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 looking forward to Ahura phase II
Awesome Rob!
Cheers mate.always wondered how
Nice content. Thanks for sharing. My Datsun needs a 4-rotor.
Just received my hoodie and firing on all rotors shirt and in the middle of those two things was sitting the oil from your 4 rotor I legit jumped up and down because I ordered mine December 14th 😂. I was like I hope the wait includes the oil.
This was so epic! Very respected build
Killing it bro
Thanks to people like Rob, the 4 rotor will start showing up more...was like the days when they finally made good seals for rotaries suddenly they become a usable thing again.
If we all dreamed like Rob the world would be an interesting place.
Also like some of the secret sauce its a reason dirt bike clutches now have bearing when they used to just sit on a shaft :)
Rebuild, tare it down, repeat until you create perfection, Rob! "MO'POW'A'BABY!!!!"
2:19
Rob: We got more torque than I thought
American Muscle enthusiasts: *sweating profusely*
9:48 I really appreciate the *slam* and the *Slam Slam* edits. Very funny. I hate when I’m editing audio and those little things happen.
Great video. Great knowledge.
one word. SICK
Robb Dahm AKA D.B. Cooperdahm back at us with another one from the tales of D.B. Dahm UA-cam most infamous Rotary power maken legend or atlases thats how the vloging legends Go 👏
Thank you
There's a meme online of a valve from a piston engine stuck in the side of a rotor. This image has haunted me all throughout this video. 😂😂😂
