the 13BREW is an incredible engine, if you put alot of $$$ into it, otherwise you'll be rebuilding them every 50-60k miles or sooner.

Ever heard a wankel rotary with a bridge port? Pure sex. Ever heard a 20B 3 rotor in person (or even a 4 rotor?)? Holy SHIZZLE... it's like sex on wheels, without even looking at the car, just listening to the engine. It's unmistakably rotary.


I have a good friend that owns a 13Bt (87 Turbo II) that's pretty heavily modded, but the internals (all 3 pieces, 2 rotors and the eccentric shaft) have 140k on them, and handle them no problem...just all the emissions crap is removed, he uses 1600cc secondaries and 850cc primaries, along with 2 cycle oil in the gas for the apex seals since his mechanical oil metering pump has been removed. (the FD's have electric ones, and are like $2k to replace...eeew)

Current Z's:
1991 Silver Metallic TT 5spd


Previous Z's:
2004 350z Enthusiast model, 6 spd, stock. 4k miles R.I.P.
1993 300zx TT Stock 141k Miles (parts car)
1994 300zx TT Stage I+ 52k Miles
1990 300zx NA Stage VII+ 55k miles
1990 300zx TT Stage II+ 89k miles
