My car stock except cobb sri 35000kms

His car

2007 mazda rx8 turbo for sale, 19k on car, 10k since the build. over 65k to build the car, sacrifice at this price, willing to consider trades or partial trades, call xxx New fd rotor housings with fc turbo rotors, bridgeported, car made 476 rwhp T04s 60-1 turbo Microtech lt10 standalone ecu Aem water methanol injection system full exoticspeed exhaust electronically adjustable coilovers 18x9 inch wheels with 245's in front and 275's in back Front mount intercooler with Greddy rad Full set of defi guages in car Battery relocated to trunk Carbon fibre vented hood etc...... way to much to list

I don't know much about these cars but this guy wants to trade me I was hoping to get some input from you guys. I only got the speed because I needed haul equipment for my last job. My new job allows me to park and take public transit. My second car is a 2002 corolla and I have a covered garage.

Are you looking for newbie help? Or are you just asking if it's a good idea?

I personally would think that you would be getting a hell of a deal, and he would be screwing himself. It looks like you just copied and pasted his ad, so have you even talked to him yet? If I was in his shoes, I wouldn't consider that a fair trade at all, and would shut you down.

Considering nearly all of the important stuff to know about an RX-8 relates to the engine itself and the other systems that support the engine, there isn't a whole ton that our newbie assistance can apply here. Perhaps going to RX7Club.com and going through FD newbie information might be more accurate?

"Boosted 13B-REW rotary" is dramatically different from "Boosted 13B-MSP rotary".

Until you know the difference, the REAL differences, and why, you shouldn't even consider EITHER.

Like I said, he is driving an RX-8 chassis, but the motor is apparently from an RX-7. I'd recommend checking RX7Club.com for FD newbie stuff.
