View Full Version : RX8 4 Rotor is now running!!!
Sarah_b 07-29-2009, 04:20 PM Hi Everyone,
The time has come to actively take part in the RX8 forum. I have in the past made a small amount of posts, mainly to sell a few things that we didn't need on the race car.
Over the last 12 months we have been in the process of building an RX8 4 Rotor, and we have actually had it running for quite some time, but there were a few little things here and there that we weren't quite happy with.
For the time being I have included a couple of links of us testing at Willow Springs, and also on the dyno, and later on I will post up pictures of the build process.
We certainly look forward to Seven Stock, in which we hope to have the car on display!!!

If I have not linked the videos properly, can someone please let me know whats best - it's a shame that I can wire a car, but not know how to upload videos to a forum :uh:
Enjoy!!!!

Mazmart 07-29-2009, 08:18 PM Thank you so much. I LOVE hearing 4 rotors (You'd think I'd tire by now).

Sarah_b 07-30-2009, 10:09 PM We have built it for Time Attack.
arlingtonrx8 07-30-2009, 10:20 PM Sounds nuts in the dyno vid. Looks like the entire building is shaking near the end.
Burton 07-31-2009, 12:44 AM WE NEEDS STATZ lol

Chavy 07-31-2009, 02:50 AM what a tease
TeamRX8 07-31-2009, 06:41 PM Looks like it took some major firewall surgery to make it fit
bse50 07-31-2009, 06:45 PM You could do surgery to my firewall all day long to make that beast fit!
Then i would have to rob banks to do my rebuilds though...
golden boy 08-01-2009, 05:49 AM Very well done.
Must know more.
SPHINX144 08-01-2009, 01:45 PM It has a very incredibly unique sound compared to other cars--it's almost like an F1. A proper full length video around the track would be appreciated.
Sarah_b 08-02-2009, 09:57 AM Thank you everyone for your comments.
This was its very first day at the track. We are extremely happy with its "off the trailer" performance.
We will put up more videos soon, and maybe pictures of the build process from the last 12 months......
Thanks again

zoom44 08-02-2009, 10:47 AM Sounds nuts in the dyno vid. Looks like the entire building is shaking near the end.
that was the ground shaking under the building- from fear of that monster driving on it:)
NoOdLe BoY 08-02-2009, 12:00 PM ^^lol nice.
that thing sounds beautiful. hopefully someday ill build one of these after i've stuffed enough pennies in my piggy bank :)
turborx8 08-02-2009, 12:55 PM Can you post up a few pics of the engine bay? :)
Moderie/MT 08-02-2009, 04:02 PM you are my hero! that is so amazing I can't wait to see much more of this 4 rotor beautiful beast. I envy this car
There's some info at: http://www.slideshare.net/bmiusa/BMI-Racing-RX8-2009-Proposal
Can't wait to see/hear this at SevenStock!
G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY 08-03-2009, 02:49 AM wow, hot girl building a 4rotor rx8. wonder whats next...

laythor 08-03-2009, 09:34 PM not only does it have a 4 rotor.. but you can pet it while you're driving. Awesome looking car and i have to agree that beautiful girl + can wrench on cars = ultimate hotness.
Sarah_b 08-06-2009, 02:56 PM Thanks for the feed back everyone, I promise I will put up more pictures and videos soon!!!!
Including ones of the engine being built - which is more like an Animal Style from In & Out. Also, as I mentioned we would love to have it on display at Seven Stock, does anyone here have direct contact details for the organizer of the event?
thanks

Sarah,
I'll pm you the details.

Gr8Bullet 08-07-2009, 09:57 PM omg that sounds awesome!!!!!
TeamRX8 08-10-2009, 09:23 AM When it comes time to post the real information would you please contact a Moderator for starting a limited participation thread?
The last thing we need is good information buried within 10,000 ....
ZOMG!!!!!
.... BS posts
Thanks.
california style 08-12-2009, 02:46 PM wow!

This could be an interesting option.
I'm eagerly waiting to read some data and specs, especially about the reasons behind the various solutions. A 4 rotor out of 13b parts is a mad build. didn't scoot use 12a parts for their rx7?
TeamRX8 08-12-2009, 09:50 PM yes, Scoot is a 23A - using 12A parts results in a shorter engine so it's easier to fit, a guy in Sweden recently got his NA 26B FD3 up and running, 469 rwhp

I'd like to know where he got that front engine cover for it ....

dozer 08-12-2009, 09:54 PM please be at 7stock!
NoOdLe BoY 08-12-2009, 10:21 PM please come to queens ny for one of my thursday meets. lol
golden boy 08-13-2009, 05:29 AM Please take it to South Africa so I can lick it.
rodjonathan 08-13-2009, 06:02 AM man that 8 i watch it over and over and over and never get tired of looking at it
3DZukini 08-13-2009, 12:26 PM Awesome, can't wait to hear some more of that engine on the track.
Moderie/MT 08-23-2009, 12:33 AM I think they forgot about us....
Mawnee 08-23-2009, 01:18 AM :drool: Just awesome!
TeamRX8 08-25-2009, 07:40 PM ZOMFG bump ....
Sarah_b 09-13-2009, 11:41 PM Hi Everyone,
I haven't forgotten about keeping you updated, we just have just been extremely busy making some minor changes to the car, including changes on the intake and the exhaust, with positive results.
As long as everything goes well over the next couple of weeks this car will be at Seven Stock and we will fire it up and make plenty of noise. This will be its first offical outing. We will be on the dyno again and will also try and get to the track prior to Seven Stock.
I'm sorry I haven't posted any more pictures or videos, at the moment my time is better spent on the car.
We look foward to being at Seven Stock this year. Also, one of our sponsors "GoPro" has kindly donated one of their 5mp wideangle cameras for the raffle at this years event - special thanks to Justin and everyone at GoPro!!
07rx-8 09-14-2009, 02:58 AM Can't wait to see this car at sevenstock!!!
More Videos!!!
Sarah_b 01-24-2010, 11:54 AM Hi Everyone,
It's been quite some time since I lasted posted on here, and apologize!!! I would however like to let you all know that we will have the car on display at Aarons Lend and Lease at Fullerton, CA on Saturday 30th from 12 noon to 4 pm. If you are nearby please stop by and say hello. We will be starting the car up during the course of the day.

Sarah
