Goosebumps is all I have to say. Nobody except for us car enthusiasts can understand and feel what it's like to have a connection with our cars and express the love we have for cars. To the regular car owners, cars are just a metal object that moves. But to us, it's more than that. It's apart of you. It's your significant other. This is why i love this channel, because i can understand and relate to these classic car owners. Why doesn't this channel have more subscribers?! The quality of these videos are better than the TV shows on Velocity!!

+Thomas Wallblom Most of what you're hearing is transmission whine, not the engine. If you put solid or very hard bushing mounts on your transmission, your car will have this sound. I ran one in my car for a while on my transmission and it sounded like a racecar. After that one broke, I put a better designed one in that cut the sound in half or less and it's much better now, basically the difference between people thinking the car is broken vs not noticing. I really wish I knew which mics they used to pick up the interior sound so well.

I miss my RX2, I had one when I was in High School. Cut my teeth as a mechanic, changing the many points, plugs, distributor caps, checking the gas and adding oil, but worth it. Nothing, nothing compares to the seemingly limitless RPM's, and the traction on slippery roads, which rivaled my Audi 200 Turbo quattro.

When I first visited Sydney on a business trip back in 2008 I came across a bookstore show window where a Rotary Engine specialized book was nicely displayed then I finally realized that there were some Rotary engine lovers in down under for sure. I still watch on KZbin those Rotary engine lovers there and it somehow gives me warm feelings. Thanks again for sharing your passion and nicely documented films. From Tokyo.
