[@mightycarmods]

Sounds incredible. May the no rods be with you.

[@Thetruecrow]

Sounds maaaaaaad

[@tylerbrooks3531]

Stamp of approval I’d say from the OGs

[@monraybarends1409]

Mother of cross-over. I just came from an RX7 vid

[@ForgedShaft]

I read that in a moog voice

[@marsniper27]

Just finished the latest rx7 vid before turning this on.

[@literally_not_kevin]

Been following this guy for a decade, the sheer amount of dedication and passion he has is inspiring. Great work Rob and co.

[@falosny]

I still remember the whole ups debacle

[@justinisdabomb1234]

same here man, crazy shit right

[@EXZACHTPERFORMANCE]

@@justinisdabomb1234 I still remember thinking he had an impossible amount of work ahead of him for a regular guy (which he was when he started this project) boy did he prove people like me wrong, and I'm glad he did.

[@waybous]

My first video was "All my gears are neutral."

[@7h476uy]

"What it's like to own a Lamborghini Diablo" has turned into "What it's like to build rotaries." I'm still here :c)

[@ThatRacingChannel]

Yess!! Love it 😍, there goes getting any work done for the next 40 mins

[@MyGoToUserName]

"excuse me sir this is a roll race you can't park here"

[@That_5.0_Ranger]

Ride along in the 4 rotor coming?

[@johnbarron4843]

Just tell em you were watching Dahm. Everyone will understand.

[@Brother2Jis_27s4]

TRC approved I take it?

[@Nexus-tv1yg]

The green rx-7 should battle this beast!

[@ericschumacher5189]

I know I’m way down in the comments, but if you read this Rob, I think it may be good idea to tie the roll bars of the cage to the bodies roof line / pillars with dimple-die’d sheets.....boxing the tube chassis to the unibody would keep any stresses from relaxing and the body misaligning when driving the car hard (so the whole car must untwist together). A side benefit is the car would be more torsional rigidity than it is now, which couldn’t hurt based on your future plans, and your past comments about the way the chassis shop originally designed it for drag racing.....I'd hate to see any of the hard work put into the bodywork get diminished due to panel gaps changing or cracking occurring from them butting up. Hope this helps; keep up the good work!!! 👍

[@lucaskelly4590]

You're up by the top now!

[@isMeesadin]

up

[@Matty.Hill_87]

It would help stiffen up the chassis massively

Rob getting roasted way back on the 3 rotor harness… “and I took that personally”

[@2valvechris338]

Fr everyone was clowning him on the 3rotor harness

[@Raptorlifts]

Everyone that hated on Rob and this project has no idea the work and passion put into this. Rob is built different.

[@mynameisntleo]

Agreed, wholeheartedly. I was always surprised and unable to to understand why there were so many shitty comments about the 4-rotor never happening, lies/bullshit, maybe even click bait. But when people are just watching the progress and not actually doing it, comments like that show how thoughtless and inconsiderate people can be over entertainment. Doubts and insults from uninformed, impatient mental mutants. At least they took their ADD and focused on something else to hate as much as themselves.

[@grendelum]

satisfying to see the wiring all come together and, ya know, actually work !!

[@kristoferfc6525]

Totally agree!! It's wicked, btw nice profile pic bruh

[@arturasru369]

Videos like this are the reason why I'm a subscriber!!! The test run sneak peak at the end was INSANE!!!!

[@bigdaddy741098]

That sounded insane at the end. I can't even imagine how excited you must be, Rob.

[@reggiekeene]

I love how technical this car is. Been following it since the beginning. Always amazed at how much it changes.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

I only found out about it after the first sema it went to, and even then I didn't start following for ages because it just seemed like it would never work, yet here we are 😂😂

[@darkwatcher01]

My man need to be precise at everything cuz he's going for very high numbers on a car never done before. He needs to not frick up cuz his life is on the line

[@enderblazex2718]

I was just wondering earlier today when we will be blessed with a new video, and just a few hours later, Rob never fails to deliver! Thank you Rob! Happy to see the car alive again!

[@Matty.Hill_87]

Thank you for thinking this into existence 👌😂

[@wbass243]

Rob I wanted to mention to you last video, Please have Isaiah make a a light metal "Splash guard" box to cover the high pressure fuel lines behind your head, (technically between the seats)in case a rupture happens. You don't want the lines to spray everywhere and soak you with fuel igniting you to become the human torch. Better that the box splashes the fuel to the bottom,of the pump area so the car catches on fire instead of you. If you are going to make a clear firewall between you and the rear of the car cool, but it is still advised so you dont spray fuel all over and instead make the fuel puddle downwards. P.S. If a fire happens, every second you gain to leave the car is worth the effort.

[@DavidFlores-yn7wp]

Thank you for the grind Rob. It’s truly a treat to see you and your team work your magic on such beautiful projects. Have a good week!

[@joealex65]

FINALLY it runs again! I know BIG things are coming for this beast! 🔥🔥

[@smugster4518]

For me it's like a web series, I never skip any of his episodes, I just love rob explaining every bit of work so nicely that he does with like so so much of professional accuracy🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@shitfaced1337]

I am literally subscribed and it has nothing to do with youtube

[@i-_-am-_-g1467]

Rob man i cannot thank you enough for suggesting dr-25 heat shrink, i will never go back.

[@KingDeadMan]

The 4 rotar chopping was straight gold. Even though it was pretending to be ported, it still sounded great.

[@goodcitizen7064]

No other car builder on youtube does what you do Rob. I, for one, appreciate it!

[@atkinsnatureaquariums3552]

Wow I'm early for once lol, been watching this build for years now, don't always comment but I appreciate that you keep going with this build, you find ways to make it better. I remember when the 4 rotor came in on a crate, watching this engine fire up and come to life has been an amazing journey to watch. Cliff hangers at the end always get me 🤣 loving it 💪

[@mikepacheco9520]

Worlds longest build! 💯

[@jacoblarson3080]

Yep but best built build

[@BudtheBeekeeper]

That's crazy man, I stumbled on rob when he raced ken.. the hoonicorn was insane but I think there's a new king in town lol

[@maximumfilms7458]

MORE SHOP CAT! But also on a more serious note, this has been one of my favorite projects on KZbin for many years and I'm so happy for you guys that it's finally almost done! Absolutely gorgeous work guys you should be insanely proud.

[@krauseehre5626]

the amount of improvment in every single part of the car is just stunning.. you guys are really doing a great job. i am so in love with the 4-roto its crazy :D

[@Supra_Mickey]

Rob is my biggest inspiration when it comes to car builds love his perfectionist side

[@brytonheiselt1915]

As an engineering student Rob Dahm is my dad. What an absolute legend

[@monke4632]

Rob was so excited about this he uploaded it at a normal time.

[@BustaCap]

Rob please don’t take it out and brake it on the streets. Get everything worked out and done first so we don’t have hoods flying off and engines braking due to a loose bolt. You’ve gone so far with this project don’t let your excitement get to you just yet. Love the RX-7 build. This car will be iconic to the car community! Just like David’s RX-7 but more power.

[@kai_444]

breaking*

[@esimler]

@@kai_444 somebody had to do it

[@streamcyper]

I hate having to wait for videos... But man soooo worth it. Absolutely love what you guys are doing. Side note... Saw them cutting at the radiator and first thigh was "Hope the closed that shit off tight..." then I saw the tape and it gave me a nice chuckle.

[@maaduece5132]

Nice to see it getting finished on your own time line , not being rushed to hit a deadline

[@xXDANGER69Xx]

wow - the last 10 seconds has me absolutely bricked! Can't wait to hear it scream again.

[@lilmills1107]

robs face at 5am shows the commitment to this car, stoked on the first start up lets go

[@chadgeary2653]

Every time I see this car get a step closer to your vision it makes me a tad bit more excited. I remember when hoonigan did a field trip out to your shop FOREVER ago and thats when I was first introduced to this project. Here it is fleshed out as a proper build getting closer and closer to the truly batshit creature she is, and she's fucking beautiful.

[@workdesu]

my grandmother passed away earlier today..she was a really sweet person, bless her soul.. seeing ahura roars into life here today somewhat brought my mental state up a bit..i thank you, rob dahm

[@dublobe]

Watching him rip n try to break open the cardboard box only to grab the tape and open it properly is why I like Rob so much. Just a real (super genius) human doing great things.

[@matthias18]

Finally a video i can watch on release these times are way more convenient for me in Germany

[@Sir.VicsMasher]

Love it, I feel like it could still use more turbo. Maybe go compound turbos if you max out this turbo sooner than expected. Ive seen 1,600hp compounded 2 rotors on FuelTech's channel so imagine extrapolating that.

[@claudedottin1312]

This is what I’m doing to mine

[@jacobm2625]

They might be running nitro, which will also add to the HP count

[@AngryMonkeyza]

I still can't get over that rear fenders. Seeing it wrapped gives a haunting beauty to it. Can't wait to see this car rip. You deserve this after the sheer amount of work you put in!

[@nagizah8]

I really wish that the final form of the 4-rotor will be painted montego blue and have tan bucket seats

[@DuranIndustries]

I LOVE THIS THING SO MUCH

[@MelGidsen]

The Power this thing is going to have will be insane! I really hope you'll finish the driveshaft tunnel before you're actually gonna drive it 😅

[@shtupidkid8400]

I've been following Rob for years and as a kid hungry for rx7 content. Seeing a rotory fire up makes me exited, but this... Just takes it to a whole another level. My dream is to own a FD and Rob just makes me wanna follow my dreams even more! Thank you, you are just an amazing inspiration!

[@thebrelon]

I wish this car will eventually be as famous as the hoonicorn.... It would be so deserved!

[@MasonBrown-nr3qq]

This is crazy I remember when the 4 rotor was still a concept like wow you have gone so far man love the videos

[@AdrianJamaal]

It's almost criminal how excited I get about a car I will most likely never even see in person.

[@g1psy_D4nger]

That gentleman who drank the nectar of the GODS known as aguardiente,the best drink for the work on the 4 rotor, great taste hahaha

[@_sticks_]

That part where you're talking to your future self is super relatable.

[@DankerooDuck]

oh my god i am so excited for the next video best of luck to you and the team Rob!!!

[@BoostedEP3]

Pretty excited to see this thing done and in paint! I'm thinking they keep the squid ink grey and do a bright color on the cage. Something like an aqua green/blue or something like that on the cage so it pops against the more stealth grey!

[@88Frank]

There are very few people/builders/youtubers I am genuinely pleased for on a real level, and you sir are one of them. Amazing work 👏

[@Atodaso]

DUDE - You guys are dedicated AF, and the attention to detail is fantastic! Thanks for doing what you do!

[@jamesh5460]

Wow... you must have done a buttload of research into all of this. Great attention to detail and functionality.

[@Mcheijink]

Aah Rob, I just wanted to go to sleep. Why are you doing this to me! (Awesome to see the progress that you are making! I really like the software driven approach to engine control!)

[@kristofradai7169]

Project Ahura almost finished, unbelievable journey, thank you for bringing my favorite car content consistently for over 10years now. You tought me not to ever give up. Started watching in first year high school, now being a technician with my first rotary project in mind. Keep it up!

[@widdly-scuds]

In your last clip, you can hear the heritage of the 787, beautiful. Can't wait to come see this car in person again

[@Matty.Hill_87]

I'm loving watching this thing become a actual car, you guys are absolutely killing it

[@JMB676]

Hell yeah, this is the car I'm most interested in seeing running a ripping. Only other car that I'm interested in seeing iS DDE's F12. That car is supposed to end up like the HOONICORN so maybe a three way race between to OG coolest car ever and the NEW coolest car ever (4 rotor) and the runner up coolest car ever (DDE's F12). Great job Rob and your team. Super happy to see it roaring to life.

[@greengabe5]

Can we all just take a second to appreciate Robert taking in stray cats and giving them a home🥺❤️

[@fighting2succeed]

We're all feeling the 'fizz' from just watching the iconic first start and drive on this version of the 4 rotor , I could only imagine how those moment felt for you. Enjoy the fruits of hard work and dedication, you deserve it.

[@MrGumoz]

Hopefully we get to see a rematch against the hoonicorn can’t wait to see what’s coming up with this monster keep it up Rob much love from Colorado ❤️🤟🏽

[@tylereicholtz6059]

I've missed her

[@stevefriswell5422]

I love the amount of technical details that you guys show. Keep up the good work guys.

[@2lucidjay]

first off the cinematography is beautiful🤒 you truly inspire me to build something as intricate and detailed as the rx-7.

[@ianm432]

You may experience a few long term failures like the map sensor on a 90. It's typically best to isolate them from vibration and even remote mounting. Real talk, how are the farts on AG1?

[@NorwayVFX]

Probably bad enough to be considered a war crime if used in battle.

[@mjenn8634]

Probably detectable by NASA satellites searching for methane gas emissions.

[@andrewcervantes1259]

42:48 is when the car starts

[@onebiggmfan]

I remember watching What it's like to own a 3 rotor. It's crazy to see how much has changed and how far you've come but also how much is still the same. Love your videos!

[@henrymullettaw6571]

Love your work Rob, your hard work and dedication is inspiring well done on getting it running I can only imagine how good that must feel.

[@stephanrosos4957]

"Croissant Wave of Fittings" for the oil lines... add that to the fabricator's lexicon! 🤣 LMAO! ... absolutely superlative skill and craftsmanship throughout 👏 by the entire team. Congrats and thanks for bringing us along the journey. Benchmark for ingenuity and perseverance. Standing ovation for all, even the cat 🐈

[@rob7439]

The last two seconds of the video gave me goosebumps. Your dedication to engineering and building this masterpiece is incredible.

[@aatishramnath]

I am absolutely amazed.Been following the build cannot wait to see it run😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@falcon1209]

Literally stop everything I'm doing and go to watch these like they're feature films. What a tease at the end. I neeeeeeeed more!

[@squidikka]

I can't wait until you hit 1M subs. Long time coming, most deserving. I've been here since the UPS drama, and it's amazing how far you've come.

[@79Z28Hellion]

Bravo Rob and crew. Sounds incredible.

[@REDRIDER101]

It is so fun watching this all happen. You went the right direction Dahm

[@martijnbrandt7553]

Thanks for always taking the hard way!!

[@_tyo420_]

Thank God you wrapped the same color like the old ones... I love it that color so much....

[@ELITEGAMER2013]

Rob I cant think of a better channel to be following in this day and age! Bravo sir.

[@laneevans1989]

Love you and the teams work bro, can’t wait for the final product ❤️

[@DamonMcLean1]

Love the car, the team, and the dream. Thank you Rob. 2022 is going to be the year of the 4 rotor

[@1dmarr]

A literal wet dream of car building videos. Rob you be putting out the best videos now. Love how you worked tirelessly and saved up the footage/videos to put out one after another.

[@joshuafleckenstein351]

I thought the 4 rotor was ridiculous before. This is unreal. I’m eagerly awaiting every single upload, I genuinely can’t get enough of this car and this channel.

[@AlexZanderMuro]

nucking futs to see everything coming together so cleanly. your dedication and planning has totally paid off; youve got one hell of a machine.

[@monkeybase01]

I'm super happy for you guys!! Car looks and sounds awesome!

[@joemeckley2017]

Great teaser! Keep it up guys. Can't wait see this beast out on the track

[@glitch_86]

Not gonna lie ever since I started watching him making this car and the amount if time and effort he is putting into making it the absolute best that it can be. It has truly inspired me. At some point I want to start a KZbin channel. If for no other reason than to sti swap a brz. And just go as far as rob has with it.

[@MrDecaliostro]

Sounds amazing! Great job Rob!

[@vailosquiet8678]

This is just one hell of a build! Cant wait till i can see it in the flesh!

[@jeditasticlymungus]

This build has been one of the most fascinating I have ever seen, amazing car, Splendid work 👍

[@lonewolfinc]

Love it when he says, "it's in", in that tone of voice xd Great work you guys killed it this thing is gonna be nasty fast!!

[@randyrose9393]

I absolutely love this car and all the time and dedication you and others have put into it! I'm very happy you have given us all the opportunity to see it as it progresses! This is truly amazing. Keep kicking ass!!@

[@mr.k6136]

You are a great inspiration to me and I just want to say every time I see your car it just motivates me more to follow my dreams and pursue the things I'm passionate about glad to see how for the car has came it's amazing and second to none

[@greysinclaire]

That TEASE at the end!!! So excited for the next video! Congrats guys!

[@wufky4010]

i got chills at that teaser at the end!! great work rob!

[@bdjm8595]

Congrats you guys, looking and sounding FANTASTIC !!!!

[@southney7211]

Yes mate. Love how the evolution of your dream is coming to life. Hats off to you for turning your car projects into a career.

[@CapnFlappyJaw42]

This week is a good week. I got my RX7 back up and running and now Rob's 4-rotor has started!

[@peteoconnor6388]

This is truly amazing to watch everything come to life.

[@webb2800]

With how close the original hoonicorn race was, I'm certain this revision of the 4 rotor would tear it to shreds now.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

This thing came the closest to showing that thing a set of tail lights, it's definitely got what it takes to make it atleast a good door on door race

[@deckers05wrx]

The one thing ive wanted to see on the 4 rotor is the sheet metal fabrication to seal off the cabin from the outside. I love this car and your dedication.

[@NicholasRenotte]

I started tearing up in that final cut scene. Goddammnnn that sounds like a straight up animal.

[@broncobill3902]

Hearing that 4 rotor scream gives me goose bumps every time. Also my 10th anniversary sitting in the back ground makes me smile. 👍🏽👍🏽

[@eddieolong]

Long time follower, 2nd time commenter (I think). Few understand this level of passion for cars, but I much appreciate everything you do and have done for us viewers. I just bought an N55 135i and I feel about it the way you feel about this car. Anyway, I couldn't be happier for you and your team. Skol!

[@Loci333]

It's ALIVE, that sound gives me chills, can't wait for more 😁
