Looking at a 2012 Spirit R to buy. It's got a very stiff brake pedal. It would only move about 1-1.5 inches. Any idea why?

Interesting. I have another Spirit R and I've driven other RX8s. They're not that stiff. They definitely go down about 2 inches.

Hello again ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ So my 07 keeps stalling when I slow down and stop at lights etc. My radio stopped working, display and A/C. I did the radio face screws and got back the A/C but no radio or display. I notice my trip in my odometer keeps resetting to 0.0 when I turn on the car after shut off when last used. I pump the brakes 20 times it resets and drives fine but when I turn it off and use the car again the same stalling problem comes back. I think I fried the bose amp and radio so I'm waiting for the metra kit and radio. Where am I getting to? I'm hoping to get the display working and my rx8 will stop reseting. Of course this is speculation but hoping and hope someone can chime in with experience. I ran test on the car and I replaced the crank sensor but I got other codes. Any help will be gladly appreciated!
here are the codes P0850 park/neutral positioning switch P2259 secondary air injection control value P0335 electronic shaft positioning sensor P0443 purge solenoid valve circuit I |
So owner of my first rotary for 24 hours. Already (hopefully solved my first problem lol
If the RX8 is happy at higher revs, should I drive it in a gear that keeps the revs up a bit higher? I can poodle along at 40 in 6th and its just kinda ticking over. Would I be better leaving it in 4th or 3rd?? Try and keep the carbon at bay ! Ta Muchly |
hey Judderman, welcome to the club!
Nope, no need to keep the car in a lower gear for normal extended driving. Just know that the car's power band does come alive at the higher revs so when accelerating don't be afraid to let it rev higher than you would in a standard piston motor. other than the occasional high rev shift, honestly just drive it like a normal car and ENJOY. :cool: |

40 in 6th is way too low, you're lugging the engine. Keep it around 3.5k for cruise, a bit higher if you're in constantly varying traffic.

These cars are made to rev as long as the engine is up to the operating temp. When your coolant and oil temperature are warmed up, feel free to pull up to 9000 RPM. That's what the engine is meant to do.
As for cruising RPM, generally around 3k RPM is fine. I wouldn't dip below 2500 RPM. |
Hey Guys,
I'm going through my options for a turbo kit for s2 and some parts Has anyone dealt with RX8 Performance.com? and is he the same owner with Mazsport before? Have some horrendous threads... |
