I just got the May issue of Sport Compact Car magazine. It has a very complete article about the RX-8 and one about the design and works of the RENESIS engine. They state that they dynoed the RX-8 and it went flat at 6250 rpm, suggesting stuck tertiary ports. Is this the same as Sport Car International magazine marketed under a different name? Well, I'll post the scans as soon as I have them ready.

You can email the scans to me if you like:

I'll make them the right size to fit on the site :)

OK great!

The SCC articles have already been scanned, posted, and discussed in this thread (http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3350).

The RX-8 article is also now available online on SCC's web site (http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/features/0305scc_mazdarx8/), but I can't find the Technobabble article about the Renesis there.

So is Sport Compact Car the same magazine as Sports car International??

NO
