I don't know if I got an 8 with any cylinders, much less a 4cyl, I'd have been pissed. Could your driving skills be on par with your mechanical aptitude? That would explain the minivan...

Last one tonight:

So:
1. I am a human
2. I have the kit on my car (www.aquatune.com) I have the plus kit in now.
(been on 2 days)
3. I have pictures
4. I will let all of you know when I bring the gas down to 87, and run it through a full tank. I will state my milage at that point vs. the 190 per tank that you normally get.

Say whatever you would like about your or my level of mechanical comprehension. Say whatever you would like about anything. I will come back with proof if it does or does not work. That's it. Why are so many people on this earth lacksadasical futile bastards?

Gotta go. I gotta get some tang. Peace.

Please just leave. Come back when you have the data to support these outrageous claims, not just another website you cut and pasted from. I'm done with this thread.

alright....and just to let you know the engine in your rx8 is not 4 cylinder, it is a rotary engine....check you tube for how it works.....you drive the only current production car in the world with a rotary....is your 8 an automatic or does does it have a 3rd pedal to the left of the brake? just curious....

Funny thread. Powered 100% by fumes scavenged from bull waste and filtered through ignorance.

Though, I guess there is a slim chance he's in China. I think some company makes a knock-off there with a 4-banger in it.

Or he might just be special. That has my vote.

I didn't ban him - I don't consider ignorance to be a bannable offense.

(god knows, we don't want that rule - we would only have 7 members left!)

I'm with kvndoom on this one. Everyone should by the "pinky rings of everlasting life". Oh, and find where the troll lives and smash his kittens.

I wanted to see what he had to say when he found out it really DIDN'T work. Sitting there insulting the people who knew it wouldn't work....Oh well, trolls are all around us.

I may be late to the party on this one but to the OP who is now banned, assuming you have some way of still reading this, there is no proof anywhere that this works and there is plenty of proof lying around that it doesn't. Results speak for themselves.

Yes quite frankly you do require my personal approval! You fail!

hi

well i know i'm new to this site, and this isn't really the place to announce this but...

i have finally bought a 231ps 2004 rx8 in winning blue with leather seats, can't wait to pick it up hopefully tomorrow.

yipppeeee!!!!! all excited lol.

anyway, i was just wanting to know has there ever been a gas conversion done to an rx8? just like the cylinder engines, or is it too difficult/not efficient to use gas to power the rotary engine.

i know mazda have a hydrogen powered rx8, but instead of waiting till it is perfected/made available to the rest of the world, has anyone ever heard/seen of a gas/petrol powered rotary?

cheers
