Actually NoHook, http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/disp...ehicleCode=RX8 -- "1.3-liter RENESIS 2-rotor rotary engine" -- It is 1.3L...

Also: http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/hand...modelYear=2004 which states... "This includes the 238 hp RENESIS engine,"

hmm...

For the complete specs: http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/disp...ehicleCode=RX8

I think that what Arutyun was doing was thinking mathematically...

And Arutyun, don't you think this is old news? The RX8 has been out for a while, and the technology has been out for a long time too, so do you think that if they could make a rotary engine that would take up the back end of a Lambo, they would, and have it crank out 1000 HP or something? 238hp is a considerable amount for the size of the car, but put that up against a Supra and see what's what.
