rx8 for rx7
 

Hey guys, Ive got rx8 for about 2 yrs now and thinking of trading for a rx7. Dont get me wrong, rx8 is the best ride i ever owned coming from an evo driver. i always wanted an rx7 3rd gen for awhile now and just wondering am i making a wrong decision? i am crazy? :dunno: give me your thoughts.

thanks for reply, btw would f/i on the 8 be more unreliable than the 7?

if properly set up on a good healthy engine I wouldnt think it would be more unreliable than the 7.

Its just that people have bad experiences going FI because of missed steps or cutting corners.

hows the FI rx8 mpg compared with the rx7?

There are a lot of variables with MPG. The turbo/super charger and the tune will make a large difference. There's a thread somewhere with users posting thier before and after results with f/i on the 8. You'll find they run different setups in different conditions.
Side note: A boosted car in city driving would be terrible.

ty for quick reply, could you direct me to FI rx8 mpg tread. lolz man still undecided on trading it or keeping it, everytime i see an rx7 going pass me it always make me think about it ><

If you have another spare car and the rx-7 is in reasonable condition, why not

id say just boost the 8 but do it right

I have an RX8 and an FD.

FD's are a terrible choice for a daily driver but IMO a WAY more fun car to drive and better looking too.

My FD is half bridgeported and single turbo. Its a loud, gas guzzling machine!

sexy... That must be a dream to own both...

^^^ Thats not the dream...


Having an 8, an FD , AND my FC Lemon Race Car is the Dream!

I enjoy the Lemon WAY more than the FD or the 8. It just makes me smile.
