i just met my neighbor with a black rx8 like mine. he has a 20b in it and 175 shot of juice. i am definitely getting a ride in that beast. he said without his juice he walks 350z's all the time.

 

juice??

 

Orange juice. The vitamin C gives an additional 20hp at the wheels.

 

where is this navarre place in relation to tampa?

 

Nawzzzzzz!!!!!!!

 

It's about 8+ hours away. Just outside of Fort Walton Beach. My in-laws live in Navarre.

 

Pics? Video? Does he post here? Specs? Where'd he get the 20b from?

 

Dam you want his shoe size too lol

 

 

navarre is close to pensacola fl. when he bought his car brand new in 04 he had it ordered from japan with a 20b put in it but his car came with no warranty, so he says, but i did see the motor and i'm probably gonna go for a ride in it this week. he doesn't post on this board but i'll direct him this way.

 

This is starting to sound like BS. Errr should I say sounding more like BS with each post...

 

I'm having a hard time believeing your neighbor's story. When I purchased my 04 in Aug 2003, you better believe I would have ordered the 20B version from Japan if it was actually an option. I'm throwing up the flag...

 

You call that **** a flag....this is a flag

 

it was not done by the factory. he ordered the car new and a shop installed it immediately voiding the warranty and had it shipped here to the states. it's cool if you think its bs, what does that matter to me? all i know is that i get to ride in it. if you would like i guess i'm willing to take pictures. but someone would have to host the pic for me.

 

Ummm, you don't have to host it, just post it... Yes we would like a pic.

 

The only 20B swap I knew of back then was from Acosta Motorsports. If your neighbor honestly had a 20B for that long, he sure did a great job of keeping it a secret.

 

Until we see it, we won't believe it.

 

i'll get the picture. first though, what motive would i have to make this up? why would i give a f#ck if you don't believe it? it's not my car. maybe if i wanted extra attention i would lie about a 20b being in my car, but it's not my car.

 

I said that I dont believe your friend's story. I never said anything about you. Why dont you ask your friend how much he paid for his, this will help his story along (provided that it matches what it cost others to do the swap).

 

i'll ask him tomorrow.

 

I guess this was BS. Go figure.

 

Maybe some wacky, inverted form of Munchausen by Proxy syndrome?

I'm just sayin'...

 

i'll get it. but im in the military and we have a damn exercise this week so i work 12 hours a day all week. i saw him driving yesterday but i didn't get a chance to catch up to him in traffic.

 

OK...this is the simple thing you can do, when you have time that is.

Does it sound different when he drives by? At least...that would be something to go on for the moment.

Don't worry to much bout the BS stuff, this is a internet forum and that's to be expected. It's not about you...it's just that until you prove it most people will call BS.

Take it easy man, and get us some pic's and vid's...that would be great.

Thanks!
