A vast improvement. Very nice.

 

Bro how come in your last autocross picture you dont have your CF hood on? Do you still have it?

 

^The hood is not legal for the class I run in...So I swap it out for the events..

 

I admire Moton's, but I wasn't aware Moton has an application for the RX-8. Could you please shed some light on this?

I liked the murdered out look the best.
I like the most recent wheels though.
Nice car !

 

Volks are LIGHT, don't know the weights on the RE30's off the top of my head but my 17x9 RPF1's are 15.9lbs, while a CE28N in the same size is closer to 14. Couple that with more room from the inside of the barrel to the outter edge of the caliper for airflow and I could see doing it... though my RPF1's have some cone marks I don't know if I'd tolerate on a set of Volks


The car looks great man, kind of a roadmap for me to follow with mine in a way I'm just shy of 2 years on an '08 BB with 17x9 RPF1's, Stance GR+'s, and a few others I seem to remember from the STX setup thread

 

the re30s i think should be heavier than the rpf1s, the ce28s are supposedly the lightest rims volk has to offer, while re30s are the strongest

nice looking car dood, what kind of springs are you using with the motons?

 

Looking good Topgear!

 

RE30's 18x9 - 17.4lbs
RPF1's 18x9.5 18.6lbs

Havn't weighed the 18x9 RPF1's so I dont have the number, but I think its around 18.4lbs..

I'm on HyperCoil springs on the Motons, 8" front and back, but right now the back sits higher than I want it so i'll be switching to some 7" rear springs.

 

Looks good! Always liked black with black rims... love the enkei's

 

Great transformation man; really drastic
