I was browsing JapanParts and I keep seeing that certain parts are only for RX8 before M/C. What is M/C? I can't find even a single post with the abbreviation on this entire site, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Now I feel like M/C is something really obvious that I'm missing.

 

 

I wanted to try helping, so I tried Google, but this very thread was the first result when I typed in "M/C RX8".

Now I feel dumb because it probably really is something obvious. Thanks OP.

 

Don't feel bad. I think the two pic posters are just hiding their cluelessness as well.

And yes; I did make up the word 'cluelessness.'

 

I dont know what it stands for, other than Mic Controller.

 

It could be Model Change... like only for 04-08 before the new model. I don't really know but that would make sense to me lol

 

That would be my guess.

 

It normally means "master cylinder", but in this case it means "model change" (ie - 2009 +).

 

All of you are wrong.
M/C Stand for Master Chief. See that was simple.

 

It's model change.

ignore whatever bs all other nub sauce tells ya (for those who were correct, congrads)

 

The only thing is, japanparts.com has separate sections for the S1 and S2 RX8, so why put something in the S2 section and then write that it's only for the S1? Pointless stupidity.

The product in question is a B-pillar applique. Are the B-pillars different between S1 and S2?

 

no the doors are the same.

 

Motorcycle Club as in: USMC = Uncle Sugar's (or Sam's) Motorcycle Club!

 

no, no you didn't

 

Macaroni & Cheese was my first guess. Hope that helps!

 

yahuh.


Well, I still don't think we have a sure answer. Model Change makes no sense in regards to the product in question.

 

Call them up and find out.

 

I agree. It's not very likely that it means 'Model Change'.

I think it means 'Making Cheese'... at least that makes sense.

 

Lol a lot of people think that MC stands for Mic Controller... its actually Master of Ceremonies in that context.

 

It's Minor Change. Same term is used in the Miata & RX-7 side. It's in all the Yamaguchi books.

 

Stands for minor / model change. Usually minor change is referred to as MMC (minor model change).

 

too much of a hassle

 

So how might this affect a B-pillar applique? What was the S2 minor change?
