Thanks Now if only the car were clean. Hopefully I'll get 'er scrubbed up and ready for a more prepared shoot with more than one lens, lol

 

lmk when you do..i havent shot anything in while...been wanting to again.

 

why are you wheels crooked? Just curious. I've seen other cars do that. Is that some kind of style?

 

Are you talking about camber or wheel concavity or ? The answer is almost certainly yes.

 

plus one

 

tilt, no sweat on the test fit... i'll eventually just get under there and measure everything out myself. any idea on what the weight of your TE's are?

i'm having a tough time rationalizing going from my forged 19" r3 rims to something cast --and possibly 10lbs heavier.

 

those are nice man!! great set up. Stick with it!

 

haha he already got a new setup lol

 

too late, the orange TE-37's are gone already.

 

now hes white on white like the red suns fc

 

Thanks!

Sadly, I decided I really want to go back to performance, here are some pics I took from another thread:

 

dam those TE's are sexy, i miss mine dearly but i know they went to a good home. In fact i'll admit it, i miss my rx8... =( up until the pull of over 300 lbs of torque kicks your head back all those loud rotary noises and problems seem to dwindle away..hahah

 

well soo!

we can rev to 9k!


anyways tilt!
i kinda wish you kept the orange ones but the new TEs are sexxy!

 

wow! slammed and some great wheels!!

Shockingly I really liked the orange! You should write a little "how to do wheels" post, talking about cambers, rolling, shaving, offset, lowering etc, and how it affects performance and tyre life.

 

i can hit max torque at under 2000 rpm...

 

at the end of the day though xdeedubbx, you gotta admit that the 8 is a much better lookin' car then the bimmer.

 

deedubb wins there a bmw 335 is funnner than an 8, handles just as good and has mad speed

 

a coupe 335 will look just as sexy as an 8

 

Thanks!

That's actually not a half bad idea, the thing is, each person that goes about the process does it slightly different. There is quite a bit of info in the 'aggressive fitment thread' and pretty much anyone can ask and get an answer.

Sadly, it effects performance in quite a nasty way, I actually chose my last setup to fit wider tires and raise the car a bit. We'll see how it all pans out

 

torque? :

 

i want to refinish my TEs to Matte black, anyone have done this be4?

 

ofcourse the 8 looks better! Thats why i bought that car. But I guess I just got tired of it after a while. The fix it tickets, the blown motor etc just all piled up. =(

 

Doubt anyone on this forum has at least, lol...

I can't imagine how boring the 8 would get if not driven the **** out of. Understandable move, in straight line the car really is dull

 

i mean i drove it hard but with my career and family i didnt have much time to "Drive" the car as much as I did when I was a "single dude" haha. And it didnt help that I bought a miata around the same time. -=anyway=- enough thread jacking. your ride is pimp..
