Welcome to Sterling Metal Works, home of the "Sterling" line of modified Nikki carburetors for the Mazda rotary engine. This website is a work in progress, and will be updated and added to from time to time.

Be sure to visit the Back Yard Mechanic's Club forum where you can share your rotary engine, Mazda vehicle and carburetor questions & experience with other rotary enthusiasts!

 

 

This section prefaces the other sections, demonstrating the intake requirements for the Mazda rotary engine using illustrations and simple math.

 

Here's a comprehensive explaination of how a basic carburetor works, using math and science, written by a layman, in layman's terms, for laymen to read!

 

Still a work in progress, this section covers rebuilding and troubleshooting the Stock or modified Nikki carburetor found on Mazda rotaries.

 

The Sterling Nikki  is offered as "The most Bang for the Buck" aftermarket performance carburetor for the rotary on the market. See why!

 

This covers everything from idle and accelerator pump tuning to economy and  performance jetting for both Stock and Sterling Nikkis.

 

Here's a price list of products I offer, along with ordering instructions. Please be sure to read the whole page before placing an order.

 

Join my forum! Here you can ask all your carburetor related questions and you'll be in the company of other Nikki owners and rotary racers that can help.

 

This is a photo essay showcasing the Sterling Nikki. It's an unfinished section, as I have yet to put up photos of customer's cars.

 

Here's a list of helpful links to other rotary forums and vendors. Also included are links to work shop manuals and online scientific data converters.

 

A little about the history of the Sterling Nikki, including how it all started and where it may be headed. Some bits about myself are included here, too.
