Acosta Racing has one. He is on this forum. They are not production cars. It was a conversion.

The conversion was quick then...I'd expected to wait another 1-3 years before anyone attemped a conversion on the 8. Do you know the HP/TQ numbers? Was RPM affected and how much?

The RX-8 should come with 3 rotors from the factory.

yes that is nice, but that sits as the same concept as swapping an rb26 into a 350z. Why?
