Did Mazda ever make a high revving 4 cylinder similar to Hondas B16/b18 and Nissan sr16/20ve?

i dont think so
honda was always the king of the tiny little 4bangers (at least, within the car realm)
>>17255200
but honda made the CBX
isnt it the king of 1 liter (tiny little) 6 cyl engines?
>>17255200
That's unfortunate gueas imy stuck with the mazda BP. But I disagree Toyota is where it's at with the 4age and the 3sge
>>17255219
why not a 2ZZ-GE?
>>17255233
Oh yeah that too.
>>17255208
Gross. If I ride a Honda it's gonna have a v4 in it.
>>17255208
it was fast for it's day but the yamaha xs11 and kawasaki 1100 specter outran it.

...let me tell you about something very special
>>17255187
They made a 1.8 V6 at one point I believe.

you are my negro brethren
>>17255381
I know about rotaries. I asked for a 4 cylinder.

4a's were cool for like 4 years. I think Honda did a better job considering their sport lineup generally had higher brake specific outputs and higher redlines.

My brother had one of them MX3.
Too bad they are FWD...
>>17255801
And slow
>>17255389
Yes they did Mazda mx 3 precidia
>>17255208
>>17255223
Ive heard one of these bikes at a meet.
It had a 6 to 1 pipe, blew my mind.
>>17255809
Is there many 1.8 n/a with similar outputs?
>>17255823
Similar I don't know but the 1.8 in the MX5 NC made more and had two fewer cylinders
>>17255743
agreed
I'm not very impressed by the 4age. It's got a cult status kind of thing going on but its just not that impressive. There's nothing particular special about a 200hp 4 cylinder engine, especially when it revs to 8000. If it runs that high and doesn't make 200hp it's complete shit.

Bro 4age is older then most people on this board
>>17255187
they don't really need it when they have doritos
>>17255187
Rotary. I know not 4banger but high revving
>>17256186
True, but the B series came out soon after, and was a huge improvement over the 4a's. Enough to still make sense for swaps today. The 4a was relevant for a much shorter period.

Base 2.3l L engine.

NC had 2.0 dude.

It's not exactly high revving tho, source: have one. It picks up real well at 5k and goes till about 6.5 I think. Or at least that's where I have my shift light set and feel comfortable with it at.
