Rx8Performance.com -Great Service and Product
Just wanted to give a huge shout out to Scott at Rx8Performance.com. I will definitely be ordering from him again. I run a 2004 Rx8 in Touring 4 with the SCCA. I had some issues with oil temps earlier in he season. We had a race this weekend at New Jersey Motorsports Park and it was gonna be hot. I was worried my oil temps would start to cook seals and destroy seal springs. Of course I didn't think about this till the last minute and was suddenly in a panic as to what to do. Did I just need to change ducting or go with bigger coolers? A buddy sent me a link to the oil cooler kit Rx8Performance makes. I called and talked to Scott and described my setup, issues, etc. He explained the kit and all the parts and what they had found. I ended up ordering one and pulled the old oil coolers and piping out over the weekend. I think he might have even gone in on the weekend to put the kit together for me as I am not sure they stock them but rather custom build to order. There were issues charging my card (my card turned him down as an abnormal location) so he got a hold of me first thing Monday and we sorted that out. The interesting part is I called him from my office phone to order on Friday and never gave him my cell. When the card got declined he researched me online and found an article a local paper did on I and my wife that had out company website, he got my cell from there. Not many companies would do that, he knew I was in a rush to get the parts so put in the extra time and effort to make it happen. I got the kit Wednesday and installed it that night. Everything fit great, lines and fitting looked perfect, nice coolers. Every part included. I had questions and emailed him some pics to confirm I got things right and had an answer right away. Great service. I'll post pictures of the kit and installation in the series I garage modifications area. I'll definitely be ordering from Scott again. The kit was expensive but when I looked at what was included and priced it out I don't think I would have saved much if any building it myself with equal quality parts.
The sad part is I never got to test the kit. I was loaded up on the way to NJMP when my truck brakes blew a steel line I and I had to get towed home (luckily no bent sheet metal or injuries) . I'll be testing the car mid August and will see how the temps do then.
