[@Deetroiter]

The Pajero is absolutely awesome! Rode in one before and loved it! I'd like to add in that it's not really oil consumption in the sense that it 'burns' oil. It uses oil by design to lubricate the rotor housings so the seals on the rotors move along smoothly and don't take extreme wear. Even then, it doesn't guzzle oil. It's just something that needs to be checked from time to time and oil added in when needed. No big deal!

Dunno why, but this brought on a huge sense of nostalgia. I remember my Dad bought a metallic blue RX-7 SE and me being so thrilled with the smoothness of the engine, the high redline and the general sportiness of the car. Bear in mind that crazy fast cars were in the 5-6 sec 0-60 mph range at the time. So this car, which did the run in the high 7's, was a legitimately quick car. As with most vintage cars, I can recall the smell of it when it was new. Thanks for this trip down memory lane Doug and Jay!

The fix in the day was to just pop in a rebuilt motor. To service the seals cost as much as a rebuilt motor, but you got it back in a day. I had a Mazda guy, in LosGatos CA quote me $3500 to slide a rebuild in.

I had an early Mazda R100 and an RX3, both had buzzers that sounded at 7000 RPM to keep you from over revving it, this was before electronic engine controls that keep that from happening today.

🤣I can't believe Doug actually said "Hey Dad!" I almost spit out my drink. LMAO

Mazda has on sale, not in the USA yet, the MX-30 rotary engine hybrid. The engine only spins a generator, used as a range extender. The rotary works more efficiently running at a constant speed, with greater longevity. In a hybrid the engine will only be a part time engine, so little used, as the batteries will mainly be charged via a charger.

The most enjoyable TV car program that I have ever watched. It's brilliant to see both you together. I see the bridge, the given car flag from old to new.

[@chefmike4414]

I used to drive one and what I loved was the no power steering on a sports car. It had amazing road feel and you could feel the road through the steering wheel. You had to do the work yourself.

[@MADKIWI]

Jay, you should take the EVO Pajero for a spin... The MIVEC engne is a grunty V6. They put 2 turbos on the same engine for the GTO. A blast to drive are the EVO Paj's...

[@seanatsnow]

I'm just buying one from wales. What are the odds of it being on Leno, lol.. Anything you know of that fails? Like plastic fans exploding on 2000s bmws

[@MADKIWI]

@seanatsnow I know nothing about BMW's. If you want a flash car get a V8 Lexus. As for the Evo Paj's, keep up with services & drive it like you stole it, lol. They are very over engineered. Unless you do something stupid, no problems.

That Mitsubishi is so cool, I wish you did a whole episode about it. Never heard of it before.

[@dennistrousers1]

Agreed, it's an absolute brute, t's so good looking

[@bottledwaterprod]

Legendary. Been in love with them ever since the equally awesome Jackie Chan movie Who Am I? introduced me to it and the sport of rally racing.

[@Zerofightervi]

The Pajero is actually a more successful rally vehicle than the Lancer Evo, Mitsubishi still holds the record for most Dakar wins. They were actually faster than the purpose built buggies that run in the Dakar which is very impressive for a vehicle in a production class.

[@FredroStarr12]

Jay is such a cool dude, listening to him talk about modern cars is fun. Glad he makes these vids!

[@Queensizemusic]

My mom had the 1980 Rx7, which was the actual first generation. The one you have here is the second generation, which had subtle stylistic changes (wider trim running down the sides that actually looked best), new taillight array, nicer rear interior, etc.

[@phillipt9820]

Wrong, this is still a first generation known as a series 3, in Japan, Australia and most of the world from 78-85 are all SA22C

[@Queensizemusic]

@@phillipt9820 no it’s not. The trim is wider and the taillights are different. My father was bummed when this one was released because he wished he had waited to buy this one for mom. This one looks far better than the first generation.

[@phillipt9820]

@@Queensizemusicive had a 82 series 2 for 22 years which is as you describe, as i said they are all sa22c first gens in 81 the series 2 came out with updated rear, platic covered bumpers and a bunch of differences in different markets..regardless all same generation!

Damn, that's a father - son reunion right there! 😀👍🏼
