Some time back, someone had a thread or mentioned a kid in the Netherlands building a 4-rotor Mazda.

I've been watching it since then, here:
http://www.rx7club.com/build-threads-294/4-rotor-fc-build-974831

Really an epic build, on par with the guy who built a flawless Countach replica in his basement (http://jalopnik.com/5069251/exclusive-i-am-the-guy-with-a-lamborghini-in-the-basement), or the guy who built a replica works boardtrack racer (http://flashbackfab.com/excelsior-project-paul-brodie/)

Anyway, he recently assembled the engine:



Go check the thread out, it's a really astonishing build.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Bravo to this kid indeed. 3+ rotor engine noises send tingles up my spine. I recommend youtubing the Mazda Furai and the 787B.
