Does anyone know where I could find an R26B rotary engine? It is a four-rotor that was (maybe still is) produced by mazda for race-only applications

I thought that engine was experimental to Mazda, and then, they have copyrights, and can't even let the engine in the hand of someone not in Mazda.. ( Just explaining the rarety, jeez, those are rumors now.. I should stop telling them

dont know what motor your talking about but rotarys ive seen usually have high hp low tq. ive seen live and in the mag the supra powered rx7 but wouldnt a rotary in a supra be to little tq? the worst part about supras are weight. rx7's are fast and handle well because they are light. not saying supras are slow.... but yah
