You'll have to grind down the bottom of the flange that bolts to the block. That was the only serious issue I ran into. The "humps" around the bolt holes are too thick. Probably took about 1/8" off each one.

What plans you got for that stock header?

Paperweight. It's kinda useless though. Like I said, the only fitment issue with the OBX was the bottom of the flange that bolts to the engine. Grind that down about 1/8 around the bolt holes and it should go on without a problem.

yeah, im going for sure now, leaving clarksville saturday morning...

BOOSTSTARZ 01-19-2015 10:40 AM

Stoopicold was awesome btw, very well put together show, awesome turn out! i got put in VIP as soon as i rolled through the gate, i was the only RX8 there, two FD's, one fully bult and the other for sale, but we were the only non-piston cars there, well worth the 3.5 hour trip there! until i hit an opossom otw home and took out a left front mud guard at $100 a pair haha

reddozen 01-19-2015 03:08 PM

I had too much going on to make it. Oh well. We should all get together soon. Especially if this weather keeps holding up.

Emrx8 02-07-2015 04:00 PM

back to the real fun! As we all know, my slowmatic has officially quit. It seems as if I have spun a bearing and just about destroyed the e-shaft. OTHER THAN KEVIN LANDERS, anyone know someone who can fix this issue? I dont have the time or patience to f*ck with it anymore.

Hello everyone, I just found out that there is a forum for the Nashville people! I bought my first RX-8 six months ago and I love it. Been having to learn a lot about how to properly care for her, I would appreciate if I can attend the next meet and meet other rotards! I live in Franklin, work by the airport and drive around Cool Springs - All Black on Black

Lol, what's wrong with Landers? He's an interesting fellow but does great, well-priced work. I can vouch for him (engine rebuild).

reddozen 03-17-2015 10:37 AM

Don't forget guys... deals gap is coming up in a month. A big group from Middle Tennessee will be rolling out of Murfreesboro around Noon on April 16th.
