Regular vs. synthic oil
Hey I was online just looking over some rx8 stuff and I came across a guy who had a two page rant about how you should only use regular oil and not synthic oil in rx8's. Just wondering if he's right or not. On a side note your coolant fans fuses are the suppose to be 30's or 60's. In the book it is saying 60 but had a guy arguee with me that it's suppose to be 30's. Thanks guys!

Until you hear a lot of people tell you to use 30A fuses on your fans, go by the book. I wouldn't want my fans just to kick off on a hot day and end up roasting my engine because some random got a little hot under the collar about fuses.

Just because that's what was in it is not a good reason.
Overheating is a major killer of 8 engines.
The OEM temp gauge is borderline useless.
If you blow a 30a on a hot day by the time you notice it's overheating it could already be too late.
