mmmmm - wish the renesis had stuff to polish up like that ....

 

^never to late to do REW swap





One more...





.

 

how many hrs did it take to do the manifold ?

I'm too far down the track with the renesis to do a swap now ...

 

I got about 7 hours in it... sanding/polishing.

 

Had some free time today so I finished up the manifold.

Before...




After ....

 

All back together for now.
I still have more I'm planning to the engine bay but I'm going to the Mazda Meet & Eat on Saturday so this is how she's sits for now.

All that gorgeous work and you STILL have the battery up front!!! Don't walk to far away from you car Saturday or I may relocate that **** when your not looking!!

This

 

One day maybe.
It's not really a priority for me now, my SE is.




Patience... young grasshopper

Went to the Jacksonville Mazda Meet & Eat 2, had a great time.
Seen some old friends and it was good to be out again since I haven't done anything car related since DGRR in April.

Seeing those first gens has motivated me to get mine finished up


Couple if pics...

Nice!!

 

It was a great meet!


I was hoping to see your 8 there with the proper engine

Pics from Saturdays meet, thanks to R.B. Photos




















Yes, I know I have bugs on my bumper
.

 

I'm in love...

 

Thx, Even with the battery in the front?... Lol

 

It's a small imperfection. Kinda like a gorgeous girl with a lisp, or something...

Really though, not only is your car a fine piece of ***, but it can handle it's own, and that's what's important! And you keep it looking good, inside and out!

 

Gracias



Once I get my FB completed then I'll focus more on the 8.

Pic from the Churrazco Markham Park meet.
Lots of sweet cars that day.

A Mazdaspeed Strut bar would accent that engine bay up nice... Not sure if it would fit though with the REW...

 

Thanks, I've thought about the mazdaspeed one too and I think it should fit but I'm more focused on something else currently



4" down pipe mock up,

 

I just loved the amazing pics of these car, I just loved it would add it in my dreams.


Just a little thread of my new to me RX-8 w/rew swap.
