Where's the cheapest place to get good quality coils and wires? Autozone can take their duralast junk and shove it.

 

I bought mine from Advance Auto, $125 for all 4, lifetime warranty. Only 2k so far, no problems.
They have been easy to return stuff to in the past.
They might even exchange them after 30k at tuneup time without checking them, IDK.

 

You get what you pay for.. BHR ftw!

I looked into the bhr ignition but I don't want to pay that much for em probably end up with advance or napa.

That's your choice. I got a used one. They show up in the Classifieds intermittantly. They also go fast.

 

I considered the BHR ignition, but opted for OEM.
This is a reasonable expense, along with NGK laser iridium plugs, $86, and NGK wires, $33.
It also is a practical way, IMHO, to plan and budget for a 30k mile maintenance routine, in addition to other regular maintenance procedures ; jack up car, rotate tires inspect/replace brakes, oil change,(2500-3000 mi. max), air & cabin air filters, clean ESS & MAF sensors, check trans. & diff. fluids, coolant flush, normal recommended maintenance stuff etc., and just give the car a good overall inspection.

 

Ok so another question...I know a little foam is normal in my oil but it seems like I have a lot. My car runs great and hasn't had any problems but should I have it looked at??

 

No it's fine

 

New to this forum, first post lol. I just traded my car last night for a 2004 RX-8, and the tail lights don't work but the hazzard lights do. I've seen a few threads stating it could be the wires, what I'm trying to figure out is if there is a fuse for those tail lights in the fuse cluster under the hood or in the driver door? Or is the fuse actually on the wire in the trunk of the car? Please, any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

There isn't much for someone to "look at", and you run the risk of someone who doesn't know anything about the Renesis to tell you that you have a blown head gasket and need a new engine.

Just burn off the extra moisture. It tends to build up more in cold and/or wet weather (higher % humidity conditions)

 

i have an issue where one highbeam works. replaced bulb still have problem, any fix?

 

That would be correct. I've done this myself.

 

Hey there, I'm having a problem removing the 'invisible' bolt for removing the stereo ( I hope most if you know what I'm talking about, if you've removed it you sure as hell know what I'm talking about) lol anyway I think the heads stripped, anybody with creative juices have some ideas on how to extract it? It sure is a pain in the ***

 

That thing is a POS, I would be surprised if the head is stripped unless you had done it trying to get it out this first time. After I got mine out I never put it back on.

 

can't remember exactly what is under there but if you get some long nose vice grips you may be able to grip the head and turn it with those .

 

i was planning to make my car eventually non street legal buh still drive it in the street for daily driving....will it be obvious to cops or other ppl if my car is legal or not?

 

That depends on what local regulations you have and what "illegal" modifications you make.

For example, if the local regulations requires you to have a roof, and you remove it, yes, it will be obvious.

If the local regulations require you to have Grade 8 metric bolts on your fender liners, no, they probably won't notice.

 

I live in north carolina and the only major thing we cant do is have the exhaust cutout or bypassed....and im guessing there will be no way to tell if i have that unless their somehow under my car correct?

 

An exhaust cutout would be obvious. It would make your 8 hellaciously loud. Ear bleedingly loud. It would draw the ire of every friend, family, and cop, not to mention you're own senses. Even if you think THAT is appealing, check youtube for videos of RX-8s making flames and decide if you want that under your car next to your fuel lines.

As for a 'bypass', do you mean a cat bypass? Just get a midpipe. A proper midpipe isnt obvious without getting under the car, exception only for the smell. Many might not know why your car reeks of fumes though.

 

yea im not a huge fan when it comes to noise i mainly want my 8 more silent but deadly if you know what i mean not screaming at ppl to attract attention and ill pass with the flames for now

it does not specify this is the website i looked at North Carolina Lift Laws | Vehicle Modification Rules

 

Our cars do shoot pretty flames.

 

hell yes

 

The emissions section is the one to look at. You will need to look up NC emissions regulations to determine what type of testing is done to confirm that you are emissions compliant. The type of testing will dictate what catless options you have.

 

just swap your cat back in if you need it for yearly emissions. lose the cat and your engine will thank you
