A Rotary Swapped Corvette is just some sweet revenge for all the LS swapped RX7's! #RotarySwapTheWorld

[@Outtacontrol304]

Lol Rob Dahm swapped his C5 n took it to ls fest West a couple years. They put his car in quarantine lol.

[@Vgk36]

Dude we got jipped on this episode it needed to be way longer. More ripin!!

[@figmentfire]

I'm loving your rotary content lately, keep it coming!

[@The333Wanderer]

I had an RX-8 and I loved the sound and high revs of the engine.

[@rogerrolex6981]

A couple of naca ducts in the front would help lower intake temps and wouldn’t hurt the corvette look. That’s bad ass just the regular rotary and turbo set up is super sick and scary fast plus super old. I remember driving in a 13b turbo set up 1989-90 spinning the tires at 80mph all the way down the street. You don’t need 4 rotors Lol

[@dorianmentor3921]

Charge cooler for intake temps and flat low air ram roof scoop for the radiator why not lol. Awesome exhaust set up so cool 😮. Dry sump only option to fit in vette so man's got the funding to go with it of course

[@jimmycammarano]

Antithesis one of my favorite words

[@piakleros]

this car is a work of art!!!!!

[@arjundc9391]

Man that sound is🔥🔥🔥❤❤

[@claire001savefile5]

I love it, fits so well.

[@benoitlaurin979]

@robdahm would be proud!

[@Vgk36]

This vette FOOKs!!! HARD!!! GOOD LAWD!!

[@garlenseong38]

Definitely a unique corvette. With a rotary in it

[@K_Swap_The_World_69]

Let's Go Larry!

[@cottonhiker]

yes yes YESSSS

[@BuckeyLaing]

So funny seeing this! Hahaha usually it’s the rx7 getting the engine swapped 😂😍 such a good build

[@StellarGale]

HGK originally made all the carbon-kevlar pieces for ddKaba in RDS years ago, he even made minor appearance in Formula Drift and you've probably heard of his Flanker F project also based on Corvette chassis design but with a lot more carbon fiber.

[@hdoglesby]

His entry was way faster than Larry's chase. Respect

[@Mile-long-list]

10000% Dahm has seen this or will

[@yoshi4580]

do you have a video of ioniq 5 N coming soon?

[@cooliomo]

Instead of LS the world, ROTARY THE WORLD!

[@FundBoy76]

Wooow ♥♥♥♥

[@FAT8893]

It's only fair to have the opposite. 😉

[@mindjal19]

That thing fux

[@crazyforeigner]

Ayee

[@Ice-Crime]

Zora duntov : thats what i think about

[@SKSK-bt6hc]

rubber also design in japan🎉

I love seeing something not LS, it's so refreshing.

[@skozlozlaurie712]

LS is very american, no disrespect. In New Zealand we have alot of imports, Fords and Holdens (which have LS variants). Back in the import golden days Rotary swaps into anything it would fit in was common. Just in my small home town alone there was a rotary civic, rotary legacy and a rotary gt legacy wagon.

[@remurrr]

​@@skozlozlaurie712Are there also many LS in New Zealand? I thought only 2Jz, Rb26 and SR200dett since JDM culture is quite popular in NZ as it is in OZ

[@DerEthereal]

Man, imagine if Zora were to see this.

[@gabesolomon4887]

genius. more room for radiators.

[@UncleManuel]

**RobDahm has entered the chat** 😁😎🤟

[@Antolioparker]

rob dahms got a rotary corvette

[@InsertNameHere0369]

He sure does. Not a drift Vette tho, different levels to the car game. Fucking wild

[@CraigBrosRacing]

MOOCHI DOES POPS KNOW YOUR ON THE PHONE...😂 LOL OL

[@mtnman1984]

Let's be honest. Rob's barely runs.

[@InsertNameHere0369]

@@mtnman1984 Nah it runs great. He’s got in running strong but definitely not a strong as this fucking beast. Whole other level of badassery

[@mtnman1984]

@@InsertNameHere0369 WDYM? He took it to Griddy for a shakedown and it broke so much that he didn't even have time to fine tune the rev match. I've been a fan since 2016, but his rotary Corvette is pure Rob. Points at graphs on the laptop while the suspension comes apart and the oil lines blow up. Again, ballsy builds, but it's rare that they run right.

[@SmallBlogV8]

I love that this build exists (I even got to see it at Goodwood FOS!). Maybe there should be more anti-LS-swap builds (although Rob Dahm's C5 deserves a mention there too). A Datsun L-series Corvette, a Porsche H6 Corvette, etc...

[@alexpetro240sx]

WaZz up

[@EstebanDonJuanCarlos]

Don't let the boomers see this... They'll for sure, be punching the air!

[@cooliomo]

So FREAKING COOL! eat your heart out Rob Dahm!

[@Vito9124]

500hp from a 3 rotor NA? Sounds a bit much?

[@FAT8893]

Depends on the torque though.

[@connoisseuroftigolbitts]

Nah it’s perfect

[@rotorhead5826]

I think what he means is 500hp sounds a bit optimistic? Maybe with renesis 10:1 rotors and a peripheral port, 500hp would be attainable. It would be close to the limit of an NA 20B I'd think though.

[@Vito9124]

@@rotorhead5826 Exactly. I have only seen one 20B NA RX7 on KZbin and it makes just over 400hp with a semi pp. But 500 might be possible if you push it to the limit.

[@connoisseuroftigolbitts]

@@Vito9124 big port, big injectors, Good Tune I’m sure it’s also on E85. Hell Yeah

[@Allwayzworkin]

Wait……..what????? Why would you……..Hold up……..lemme get my brain around this………Who did???? Huh?

[@GuyFawkesWitChu]

I wanna see someone (who’s name rhymes with Kank Flyboz) i-5 swap a gen 1 v8 R8….

[@cj41079]

That's blasphemy 🤣 🤣 🤣

[@Outtacontrol304]

This vette has been around for a couple years and you just now caught on to this guy Larry?

[@LuckyFruitRacing]

Its really not that well known. Im all over social media from every continent -never seen it

[@Outtacontrol304]

@@LuckyFruitRacing it's a competition drift car. Been drifting for a couple years now. It's even been to the Goodwood festival of speed a couple times..... Guess you live under rock....

[@LuckyFruitRacing]

@@Outtacontrol304 nah man, it just obviously doesn't stand out that much to everyone. It's funny you're upset about it

It’s a C6
