Heres an interesting letter from the guys at URI:

What we do for the car will depend upon how much owner interest we receive from the owners. We are anxious to make products but for new pulley models we need access to a local owner that gets a free production pulley kit and dyno tests and a minimum 30 pre-orders. Flywheels are possible also and require 10 pre-orders and a sample flywheel. Clutches are the easiest and can be done without pre-orders.

Thanks for your request and we look forward to working with the future RX-8 owners,
URI

The free kit has been spoken for :p

Lemme know if your interested in something like this, so that way we can get those thirty orders.

Just ask URI what happened with the 2000+ Mitsubishi eclipse pulleys they had to recall and never gave our members $ back. Then they started bs about how it was Mitsubishi fault, even if URI makes pulleys for the RX8 I won't be in there "test program". Knowing URI they just probably sell you the RX7 pulley and "hope" it will fit in the 8, aka selling us the 3000GT VR4 pulley and saying it would fit and work in a 2000 Eclipse GT.
