Do you have any conclusion how much is worth brand new engine for RX-8 directly from factory if I would try to sell it for example on eBay

1. you should just give it to me.
2. what year -- that kind of makes a difference

 

why does the year make a difference?

what transmission?

 

there might be slight variations in the engine such as the 04 / 05 models // 06 / 07 model

 

The engine is the same throughout the series. The only thing that changed to the powertrain, in the engine bay, was the ecu.

 

If it comes out of an '04 AT, it makes a BIG difference.

 

he also says NEW, not so sure why it wouldn't either be an 07 or a new reman

 

Would have to know if its a 4 port or a 6 port engine.

 

sure its not completely necessary but if you were trying to sell a motor wouldnt you think giving the year of it for mileage reasons would help your sale?

an '04 6 port with 40k miles on it is a lot different than an '07 6 port with 40k miles on it dont you think? but ya, i guess the year doesnt matter....

also a lot of people call "new" as anything thats newer than what they are used to. a "new" motor could be an '04 if this guy has driven a 1980's honda all his life...

and just hope its not a '04 or '05 with enough miles on it where his lost compression and couldnt get it replaced under warranty so now he is trying to sell his dead motor on here to regain some unforseen cost. Who knows since this guy gives us no info....

 

good point too^ lets give him a break until he gives us some information though...

 

i was just making the point for people who didnt think it made any difference... now they know- where is the OP anyways?

 

yeah--lol...^

 

We are talking about engine for models 04/05, 232 HP, manual transmission, 6 gears, 0 miles.

 

I just bought an 06 with 1400 miles on it for $2500

 

the engine has 6 gears? interesting...

 

I think that we all know what i was trying to tell with that...

 

Being a newb on the forum, you'll find that sarcasm and word play run rampant thru here...

 

There have been a few part revisions along the way, so the model year matters though they are all basically interchangeable within the same transmission type

 

ill go 1260

 

I'll do 1261 bob...

 

1265, a blue paperclip, and a swingline stapler.

 

ya i cant beat the stapler... im out-

 

damnit...thats too rich for my blood...

you fargin bastage...

 

I'm a newbie, I'm reading this stuff and can't stop laughing..........
