Okay while browsing at work i saw this (http://img159.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/users/3/5/2/0/kondousyoukai-img360x480-1196960650020818_01.jpg) and wonderd.... what exactly is the point behind this lump of metal. if it was a cylinder engine i could understand doing that on the headgasket but why with a rotary would you extend the tube lengh?
I have seen a gasket like that where there was holes to put extra injectors.
. On NA rotary it might affect the torque and power curves But no real point on a turbo rotary
not sure about the metal ones, but i have seen plastic spacers, they are suppose to limit heat transfer from the engine. Whether it works or not, i dont know.
I saw the plastic ones but nothing as "wide" as this one. it seems odd that its touted for the FD as well :2Confused
I dont think thats an FD UIM. Could be an adaptor plate. Also may give you more clearance under teh UIM for some reason you might need it...
its defo an FD uim, the LIM im not 100% sure about as ive not had one in my hands only seen it fitted to the car :Thumbs-up the clearance is somthing i thought about too! but once the rats nest is gone theres liberal amounts under there
sorry, i meant LIM. I\'m 90% sure thats not an FD LIM, hence could be an adaptor plate to fit an FD UIM to a something else LIM. Not sure why youd want to though!
Your right! its an FC LIM that solves that mystery.
Way to go team! :Giggle
Was going to say it would drop the peek power point down the rpm range if it was just a spacer on a N/A car.

The plate inbetween the uim and lim im sure is for aditional injectors, on the side you cant see there is holes to mount injectors.
Seen em on crescent.
I could be wrong :)
