It's got a Garrett turbo and supposedly is on it's second engine. Just figured I'd take a shot and see if anyone out there happens to recognize it... if you do, any info you can share is appreciated!

 

I was hoping the same thing, I've been trying to get ahold of the dealer selling it to get full specs cause they dont give any detail on the turbo and the price of the car is not bad.

 

Yeah... I figured I'd post on here in case anyone used to own it. Looks like it has had at least two owners. Hard to tell how well the work was done from the couple engine bay photos. It has no A/C, so it would require some costly rework or be relegated to a weekend car... it's too damn hot here to daily drive a car without A/C.

 

Looks like the work was done well though, the battery has been relocated, and with the AC being gone it could be a decent build, i just want some more info! who did the install? tuning? numbers? PSI? a ton of other questions lol

 

I pulled the carfax and based on the history, I suspect the car might have been repossessed. If that's the case, we will never know.

 

This thread is becoming an investigation thing...lol

 

I got ahold of the dealer and he provided some info on the car.

I shared what little I know in another thread and after receiving some feedback, I think I'm going to stay away from this one.

Yeah... was trying NOT to share that link so it doesn't start a bidding war, but I'm going to pass on it...

 

I was just browsing for parts for both of my cars, and i accidentally found that. I was curious about that rx8 your talking about, and now i know what's up...
