Queen Street Racing Quad Rotor 1664 HP !!!

Queen Street Racing E46 BMW M3 4 Rotor GT60 Turbo, Mazsport & Graphic Skills Racing. 1664HP 1158lb/ft

[@fu291]

WOOT! Glowing pipes and flames! That rotary has GO-POWER!

[@fo3]

Nice, I've never heard of any quad rotors running around. My first car was a RX3, my second was a RX4, But I got out of the scene about the time 20Bs came around. Rotary exhausts always run hot, 2 cumbustions per revolution. I've seen a normal 2 rotor sit on the spot and do a burnout for 2 min, but then the exhaust was bright red and drooping down about 2" to the ground it was so hot. Nice motor here, an absolute beast.

[@Quantosquiddy]

No way! All you need is four of those babies as power plants for a quad rotor helicopter. The air flow be default of flight would naturally dissipate the heat issue. Thank for posting!

[@villedemer]

How man when I see your video I feel so good to watch this uncredible engine... and sound! Respect! respect! respect!

[@IKILLEDKENNYY]

TARBABY71 thanks for the reply I've seen it a few times now in a couple of different colours but I must say the current chrome colours looks fantastic!!!!! it does have a mad sound. this car could put down some great times once they get their chassis & package worked out. its amazine how sometimes less power gets better times & lanches. it just goes to show there's is a lot more to drag racing than people realise. I take my hat off to queen street for thinking outside of the box!!!

[@sjp61]

Yeah, his Dad did build it & I've known him for years. He's a tuning guru that a lot of people turn to in Oz (including me). And it does run the quarter mile without burning down. It does last longer than a 6 second pass, etc. And it is now twin turbo. Go and do a search on Queens Street Racing on here & you will see all forms of vids of the car on the chassis, dyno, shake downs at the track, etc.

[@soundseeker63]

That engine scares me!!! :-0 That turbo looks like something off a plane, let alone a car!!!!!!!

[@xFaLkErx]

the sound of the turbo is awesome

[@Igetpaiddaily]

It's always good to see good videos...

[@rotorg33k]

MAD! MAD! MAD! cant wait to film his new drag car when its ready

[@24rocks48]

lol that turbo whoosh is ridiculous lol purely awesome

[@LethalBacon479]

Hence the reason for the Intercooler in most turbo and supercharged vehicles. It cools the air before it gets to the intake manifold, so you have better combustion. Probably not as hot as you think.

[@totorofusion]

airplanes its cool to see how far u can go, all to build better, stronger machines in the future, you have to push the limits now :)

[@mr47uk08]

that turbo whistle is such a sweet ass sound... when you hear that kicking in you know you got about 1 second untill you enter light warp speed ! holy shizz!! hold onn!!

[@Godscountry2732]

about 30 years ago my brother in law who worked for Mazda said,Tom these little rotory motors are going to make some big horsepower in the future,Thats for sure 1664HP WOW

[@Krispys88monte]

i like the glowing exhaust manifold

[@Zalkoth]

wow even the exhaust manifold catches on fire, that's nuts

[@georgeianosi]

absolutely beautifyll

[@Meeetch22]

Gotta love how the air around them is lighting up from the heat alone

[@damntheman88]

snaps!!!!!!!! the exhaust manifold. omg!!!!

[@AlexanderA80]

Madness? THIS IS POWAAAAAAAA!! :D

[@Angola6]

Sick Sick Sick Very nice work

[@camelotdream]

@Ligeha Thanks....I just had a look and that is correct. Didn't have my head around that...so 6k is 6k on the output shaft (crank)...

[@FWEvilWhiteBoy]

gotta love the red hot intake manifold

[@Skracken]

The most brutal engine I have ever seen!

[@Spudchucker92]

Oh yes...what a noise. Gotta love a rotary!

[@919Motorsports]

Thats awesome!

[@nikivee]

Pretty wicked!

[@2iBMX]

That is an ENORMOUS turbo... just wow.

[@Hemihart]

That was a good one man...I laughed so hard lol

[@fillersZ]

Insane!!

[@PhilzDizcoveryTV]

awesome!

[@xeronicus]

OMG....this is why i love rotaries.

[@benutzer2]

THIS IS MADNESS

[@buymeaskyline]

It probably is as hot as I think. Sure, it's cooled by the intercooler but the reading for pressure is taken from the lines between the intake manifold and the ECU. Which in turn, still means there's 30PSI+ of pressure in the intake manifold. And as you should know, pressure = heat.

[@wheyez]

OMG.....scary....i love it!!!

[@zajdabneeg]

the freaken exhaust manifold turn orange....thats hot as hell..must had burn that gasket right off

[@camelotdream]

Do BOV work well with rotaries? Mine still has the stock twin turbos but I am sure they stall when the throttle slams shut. The care just makes so much fun sounds you don't tend to notice sometimes.

[@Nolegu]

That is simply amazing, rotaries don't need as much horsepower to compete with bigger engines, a 350hp 3 rotor can keep up with a 800hp V8. I don't want to be near that thing when fire comes out, let alone sitting in the car that it powers.

[@FunteX]

Beauty!!!

[@flamejame]

@whatUsaybob yea thanks, might be doin that next year in my college so i just thought i would start thinkin along those lines. its for a midget gp car and the college is considering starting a race team run by students making it part of the course.

[@Hold3nman24122412]

amazing

[@IKILLEDKENNYY]

danmcgraw41 yes this will work in a car !!! this motor sits in a bmw 3 series drag car owned by queen street smash in brisbane australia it does 7 sec quater miles(not bad) they have been running this car for a few years now !! they were one of the first 4 rotor drag cars in the world . the engine is 2 13b engines joined together (laimens terms) not a r26b from the lemans mazda. the turbo manifold does get pretty hot but turbo set ups more so on dyno's can see upwards of 1000c with no probs

[@zlaya84]

Well, sometimes they are, when the thermal expansion warps the flange enough to make gaps between the head and the manifold. You could try and force the flange straight by having thick studs and potentially destroying the stud or thread in the head or you can just let it warp and have heavy duty springs or a fairly long pipe as a washer. The flames aren't as destructive as the very hot gases that escapes tough, since those travel much further in the engine bay before cooling down.

[@rs04srt4]

looks like the exhaust gasket catches fire every time

[@Circlotron]

A two-step is a rev limiter with a low setting and a high setting for launch and race respectively.

[@AkinaGod]

Can you imagine getting that glow in custom exhaust out the hood. That would look sick.

[@anish4]

wow! flames out of the headders

[@carmodifire]

FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MetAlParA]

I would say it's a combination of heat and pressure from trying to get the gasses out so fast that the exhaust manifold gasket cant take it.. Or that's what it looks like to me at least. Also this thing sounds awesome!

[@burrowssj]

wow absolutely amazing, how long can an engine handle that amount of pressure/heat? seems like youd be scared to rev to high incase it blew on ya? i gues you dont build an engine like that to treat it nice but still quite amzing to watch gona show my brother this hell love it

[@nuke583]

Thanks.

[@Memoly]

Holy shit, beatiful engine.

[@rotorg33k]

Queen ST ROCK!! :) love this VID :) :)

[@ronofontario]

THAT'S INSANE!!!!!

[@alwayssbored]

@Grid100 I have both engines in my garage. I don't have a scale but the turbo 13b REW does not weigh 70kg with all the accesories turbo, manifolds and plumbing. I would not say the LS1 is twice a turbo 13b more like 20 - 25 kg heavier if that

[@qwwqqe]

aweosme!!!! cherry red exh manifolds!!

[@tzezai]

wow!!look at the exchaust thr on flame @@ too hot~nice engine ROCK this engine

[@cleveryetdull]

The 2 step frightened me.

[@rocrfella]

I wouldn't want that thing under my hood. THAT'S BRUTE POWER!!!

[@lt1bird348]

@Dmac11a666 Exactly! I was waiting for it to blow on the stand. 3 or 4 more pulls and that thing would be "toast".

[@MihoCrash]

This is true in a sense if the engine was made to an equivelent amount of cylinders it would benefit even more so as it does have a far better efficency over a standard engine. My point is still valid regardless of the chambers.

[@adm2204]

Check out the dyno sheet. RPM is the far left column, then HP then torque. Based on that assumption peak torque was at 7100rpm and peak power was at 7800rpm. I'm pretty sure I'm right about the sheet ;)

[@livesteamfan1]

I saw that the exhaust manifold was glowing red hot, but, were the flames caused by the gasket burning or was it just leakage from it being that hot?

[@shizloops2]

OH MY GOD! amazing.

[@TheTwistdUnderground]

That Turbo is insane. TheTwistedUnderground

[@jcadlols]

@ThePwnSho Simply the strength of the rotors and eccentric shaft. The inertia of the rotors is what causes problems. I have heard of 13b's missing shifts with the throttle flat (or sticking) and going to 16500rpm, Some of them being fine. Apparently the 10a rotary will take a lot of revs. Probably due to smaller rotor size and mass.

[@downunderground]

Ive ordered one of these for my scooter! Can't wait to run some 1/4's with it

[@risetoloose]

this engine is madness

[@DrBlueTongue]

@yourmother2161 nah u have no idea for example over here we get old 70s corollas or starlets and stick a rotor in it, basically rotor and boxer and 2 most space saving

[@Highridah64]

god daaaaaaaam

[@gts4boy]

They dont, another crazy conversion LOL!!! Its an awesome car!

[@Mrx1080]

Hol-lee! pretty rad engine, I'd hate to have to maintain it though. That thing must be pumpin out a crap load of exhaust up high for the headers to leak like that, I didn't think turbo's could be restrictive!

[@98twinturbocummins]

that is a wicked 4X

[@rxrotaryguy7]

very impressive..

[@tactikulpanda4451]

@etb4u yea ur right, i guess i'll keep my responses limited to the fact that i only run circuits and not the drag strip. o and if you'd like to see the difference in what power to weight makes in that instance, look up re amemiya's fd vs mcr's r34gtr. rx7 at 350bhp vs gtr at 500 with scramble boost

[@albertperson3254]

Must have had Graphite gaskets on the exhaust ports/header - pretty sure that's what was catching fire when the manifolds heat up.

[@rotor13]

what matters is the CFM the engine is getting at a particular PSI level. on turbo'd street cars, any sharp bends in the i/c plumbing will create a pressure drop, which is due to the fact "street" turbos flow much less air than a turbo as big as say... a GT42R. on this setup however, the kink is there due to space constraints for the car, which went into an M3 drag car called "Barbie" in austrailia. and in no way affects the engines ability to make power. efficiency doesnt matter in a drag setup

[@DjMantovani]

very good

[@camelotdream]

It probably sounds like it's high RPM as it is not a piston engine for one. The second most important reason is that there is three power "strokes" per rotor per one RPM of the crank. A piston engine would have one power stroke per piston....they rev very quick as there is no valve train to spin and a low mass on the rotation assembly.

[@elite128]

holy shit! look at the exhaust mani!

[@DeathCoreGamer]

@theunseen1 Ohh thank god. Thankyou for enlightening me. I was about to ask how many other companies make rotors in secret.

[@DatBlueHusky]

that turbo is scary

[@cfbrolley]

THAT'S NUTS! 'nuff said!

[@AlexanderA80]

This is madness...

[@formerdrifter]

possibly most insane 2 step ive ever heard .

[@kashrx7]

that is MENTAL !!!!!!!!!!!

[@mirasbelows]

WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@capnthepeafarmer]

At high RPM is that flames coming out of the manifold seal around the engine, or is that just stuff burning off on the manifolds?

[@Littlemac181]

@PokerKing1993 thats the exhaust manifold, if you give any engine enough rpms for a long period of time it will do that, but thats a turbo manifold so it does it easier, sick right?

[@itstali25]

THIS IS SPARTAAAAAA!!!!!!

[@adrian29castle]

WOW! motor is bad ass!!! and to know its for a BMW e46 M3, even sweeter....

[@Schamana]

a real Beast!!! =)

[@tryscarlet]

26B, quad rotor, also used in the 787B Le Mans car which was sadly banned due to its high power to weight ratio.

[@MediumPoo]

its the exhaust manifold - hot exhaust gasses heating it up

[@idiotwithalsz]

those headers fuckin glowing...damn!!!

[@paulbreor]

yea thats what i though espeacially with a turbo to add that presser between the seals on the side of the block and turbo inlet/

[@TurboAlxxx]

on the first spool up, was he giving it full throttle at the start or easing into it? sounds like he was easing into it.

[@mlmick1]

Is that a 4 cylinder? Or just cant see the other side? Really Cool video...

[@fLaMeSeKeR16]

i've had one only one mazda a 1973 rx2 and still to this day it runs great, single rotor 1100cc wankel in it with 850cfm holley and 5:3 gearing in the differentail thats it and it could still bead any honda any day
