Great job Jorge !! Looks like I got in your 2nd video with my Speedsource requests. They do deserve the recognition. They dominated this year. Talked to Greg about getting folks together for the Laguna Seca race if they put it back into the schedule. What say you?

great pics JEDI!

yeaah i failed miserably! after walking around i was very disappointed that i did not have a camera! there was by far a much better showing this year than there was last.

and its nice starting to see RX8s catch up to other earlier gen rotary cars as far as tuning is concerned! and its nice to see a lot of changed happening. there are a few guys here that are willing to take Flamage from a lot of other people in order to advance the appeal of the RX8! can't wait for next year!

We gotta wait for the schedule first. I like your enthusiasm My thought is to start hammering Grand Am Racing (http://www.grand-am.com/) to include (again) Laguna Seca on the schedule. You know it comes down to money and the fact that NASCAR is running the Grand Am show now, but it cant hurt.

Again Jorge, props buddy, you deserve it!! Looking forward to VEGAS !! and I wish our car showed liked yours. Ha Ha!!!

Great pics Jorge! That Autobahn bumper and Vertex sides are lookin' good on your 8.

NgoRX8 wire tuck, custom welds with HKS purple reinforcement clamps, and dual titanium exhaust tips are lookin' good aswell.

Deffinatley an epic SS.

And thanks goes out to M Theory: Code Red for the post SS photo shoot. His photography skills are awsome!

Jedi, thanks for sharing! So many great pics. Well other than the two ghetto busted veilside 8s .

Couple of questions:

Mazda displayed a turbo rx8. Any more pics of the setup? It looks like it has a RB intake. The MS front is either from Japan or they removed the plastic bar. No way it is a replica!

I noticed two cars with aftermarket UIM. I assume they are BHRs? Any details??

Unfortunately I didn't take any more pics of that car. Ngo crawled down by the wheel but we couldn't even tell what kind of turbo it had on other then to say that it was a low mount.
I have to imagine it's an authentic MS bumper, I doubt Mazda would use a replica.

Not BHR products.

Look at the spot-on fitment of the bumper at the clear corners... most replicas have a gap there. Looks authentic to me

I believe it is authentic as well. Just thinking they removed the bar.

thanks Rodjonathan!
The car has been a work in progress for a long time, I was starting to think I wouldn't have it done in time for SevenStock considering it took almost 8 months to get the parts from Japan but it came together quite nicely in the end.
I have a few more parts making their way across the ocean, then she'll be done...

Im glad you went with multiple body kit manufacturers JEDI, makes your car stand out even more (if the T5's didnt already).... I use to almost get mad at the fact that you had so many mods and money into your car but no body kit. Now I can rest at peace. Maybe a hood
