Done, Finally.......GA RX8 Guys .. Can't wait to see AT THE TRACK ! (Pics Inside)

Well, after alot of soul searching and finance juggling, I have found the machine I want. Deposit is down, and hope to pick it up next week.

Where I will be working...



The Magic behind the machine.....



Outside ....




Necessary Equipment ...



Mod List...

Here is mod list

suspension: Bilstein/ TMS
Sway bars: suspension techniques
poly bushings throughout the chassis
ecu chipped
european intake box(have the original)
Kirk racing 6 pt "bolt in cage"
5 point harness for driver with submarine belt
window net
white wheels are OZ 3pc ( will need tire if drive much on street)
Track wheels and tires.. Kosei lightweight E30 M3 offset..tire should have a race or 2 left in them..

Also, it has new belts and exhaust. The car is not perfect, it is kind of a bastard. In good working order, but due to being a race car some of the panels aren't 'original'. However, for a car to fix up and mod and mature with, I think this is perfect. I wanted a car that woudl make me 'work', because the Evo could be driven fast by a monkey (as I proved ).

Anyway, thoughts or comments?

i always liked that classic. that 4 cynlinder m motor is a reall racing one--buy a lot of oil and watch for leaks from the rear seal. every car has something to watch out for Love that car! Congrats---surprised that someone is racing that style---its getting to be a collector.

Awesome ride STF! I had a student in one at RA earlier this year. Unfortunately I was unable to get her to really wind that car out. It loves to rev and is happiest wound up. I have seen E30 M3s well driven that really moved. Great balance, forgiving nature, great sound, fast, and reward a good wheelman.

I plan on Road A for a few private events, in fact the car will live in Atlanta for a while till it is totally sorted. Nothing like a lambo track day to break in a M car....

Did you pick up the car yet?

How private are the private RA events?
