Okay. I appreciate that info. Did the Super Now tie rod ends have any effect on steering angle?

 

No it just corrects bumpsteer and steering feels more precise.

 

any updates =)

 

Not much has been done i recently installed a midpipe and had my exhaust modified to hang a lil higher and I removed my air pump. Right now im trying to figure out why my tails keeping going out/blowing up the 10a tail fuse

 

Damn, i hope you get that tail light bug sorted out soon man.

 

So i went drifting at clubloose north in nhms for my first time in my rx8 car is super snappy and is deff going to take some getting use to But i had fun and cant wait for the next event.

 

alignment & front bash bar are the next things id like to get done before clubloose North august 16-17

 

sweet

 

That front end got hungry haha. Still cool though man.

 

Thanks guys. I still have alot of stuff planned to do to this car and alot to learn as a driver.

 

Your car looks mean man! super low!

 

So I'm back with some updates & motivation. I still need an alignment to tone down my rear negative camber & correct toe in. Battery was relocated to rear trunk, plans to tuck some harnesses soon. lately I've been hoarder tires & parts.



So about a month ago i picked up a known running motor from a local dude that totaled his rx8 which I plan to build with the help of some friends or just send it to a shop to have cleaned up, ported & upgraded apex seals in the near future. Right now im waiting on a shine auto type f front bumper, buddy club driver seat & rail, and a Super now pulley to come in the mail.

 

Looking good bro, I need to get my stupid 8 running but everybody wants a arm and leg for a motor here in cali fml

 

Made a template to see what im working with and tested fitted my new bumper & headlight eyelids.

 

nice one!

 

Hey I have a few question , hope you dont mind. lol
1 Where did you pickup thoes side mirrors? Ive been trying to get some lol
2 What coilover are you running? I ask that cause I gotten some TEIN Basic coilovers and Ive thrown my car around on some roads and parking lots but its seems your car tends to really dip in those corners.
3 Other then your CAI, any other engine mods ?

I ask all this cause im trying to set up my rx8 for drifting too. Im coming from drifting a old 86 mustang , and a 86 sr5

 

There called Ganador super mirrors and you can get them from Rhdjapan. Im running Bc racing br coilovers which i dislike and plan on changing soon but i run them pretty stiff dampening. Its just a healthy stock renesis engine deleted secondary air pump and catalytic converter. I just drive hard seat time is everything

 

Any updates on the motor build? You're going FI or staying NA. I'm looking into rebuilding mine soon as well, mainly around reliability and the occasional lead foot syndrome I have.

But not assembling the motor myself tho lol. I'm gonna have it done by a shop, but looking into light porting and an upgrading seals as well. What apex seals are you gonna run, and whos doing the porting?

 

Rx8 is on the back burner right now due to a car accident, its not dead so i wait till its ready to return better than ever. As of motor plans i was planning on getting a greddy turbo kit and using racing beat porting templates, rotary aviation seals and prolly go to smg racing in RI or Irp in NJ to have it assembled.

 

Heard good things about IRP. I'll be heading that way when I need a rebuild. And same seal choice I've been looking into Rotary Aviation classics for NA. Not planing on boosting the renny.

 

Nice and im thinking 6psi of boost shouldnt hurt the renny.

 

looks like your spring rates are about 10k too soft front and rear.

 

Yeah ive notice there way too soft. I need to buy new coilovers with some swift springs 22k fronts 18k rears

 

I like where your head is at

 

hey what rims are those?
