RX8PR 12-09-2005 05:48 PM

I forget to tell everyone that this videos was with the most conservative map.............

ONLY AT 7-8 PSI OF BOOST!

now you can imagine when he runs it at 14 psi of boost....................

Enjoy the Puertorican rotary passion!

Como hecho de menos la isla!!!

I need a shopping list from you. I been thinking about this for a long time. But I had trouble figuring out the wiring.

How is the idle?
What is your redline now?
The funny thing is that your fuel milage probably stayed the same ;)
And to think Acosta Motorsports charges $60k for this (I know it includes some other stuff but still a lot)

Man the gears go by so fast when you have power.

Raptor2k 12-09-2005 05:52 PM

So how fast are you going in these videos?

RX8PR 12-09-2005 05:56 PM

On the second video at the end you can hear Robert say "cien millas"
that means 100 miles.........

Manuel

BlueAngel 12-09-2005 06:13 PM

RX7TT 12-09-2005 07:11 PM

Wwwwwwowwwwwww :shocked:

OneEvilRx8 12-09-2005 07:17 PM

if i send my car to la isla, how much b-side the $7,500.00 would you guys charged me for the labor.

Synergy RX-8 12-09-2005 07:27 PM

O.......My..........God........ that this is just plain AMAZING.

RX8PR 12-09-2005 07:46 PM

OnevilRx8,

Sorry but probably the next one is my car...............

Robert is goin to help me..................

But first he is goin to talk to a guy
to know if he can make the points for the new engine.
Rigth now that is the first step.

Robert's car is a really amazing work, he was using this car for the last
8 months as every day car and he drive it really hard!

Today he tell me a lot stories about the cars that he find on the street that
try to runs again him..........no losses for the RX8!

No problem of overheat, air conditioning is working, etc etc.
Is really a dream car...............

Manuel

Bart! 12-09-2005 07:47 PM

It may be fast, but from those videos ... it doesn't sound that nice. Amazing work though, im sure its awesome in person.

rob3379 12-09-2005 08:06 PM

That is just insane!! We need to get him to write a book or manual on this project. We need kits like this!! Again great work!!

Rob

RX8PR 12-09-2005 08:15 PM

Sorry but you would not find a kit for cars with big horse power...........
There is a lot of custom work.

Manuel

are you crazy? well it is personal opinion I guess

a 3 rotor is like a tank full charge ahead :ylsuper: until you've seen and heard that engine in person it is hard to understand how insane it is :mdrmed:

lourx8 12-09-2005 08:50 PM

Muchas gracias amigos Puertoriqueños!!! Puerto Rico es un cielo rotativo!!!!

army_rx8 12-10-2005 12:03 AM

Wow

carbonRX8 12-10-2005 12:26 AM

Love that pic with the engine cover back on. Ha! Devil is in the details. Sweet. I have to say that the $7500 price tag competes with SSRs turbo kit. Seems a little low, if you dont mind me saying. Awesome. Wonder how much it would cost to ship my car to PR. Seems they know what they are doing down there.

Nemesis8 12-10-2005 02:09 AM

Third one is up!

Enjoy :)


Nemesis8 12-10-2005 02:10 AM

Fourth one is up!

Enjoy :)


swoope 12-10-2005 03:12 AM

wow,
very wow. they need a wot drive by. just by the second it 0 to 100 in ~ 8 sec ?????? if so that is just silly.

beers

MrWigggles 12-10-2005 03:52 AM

Chirping the tires at every shift is so cool.

Congradulations.

-Mr. Wigggles

RX8PR 12-10-2005 06:10 AM

Yep,

The car makes 0-100 miles in 8.00 sec. with 7-8 psi of boost with
14 psi of boost I don't know how much make.

Manuel

rgonza 12-10-2005 06:13 AM

Manuel Sound's great!
Thanks For posting it
Rgonza :Eyecrazy:

RX8PR 12-10-2005 06:23 AM

Yep,

Robert all this guys whants a ride on your car,

They whant to send all their cars to Puerto Rico!

Next week we can take more videos to post them here.

Don't forget to call the guy that you tell me about my car.

Manuel

BoosTED 12-10-2005 07:00 AM

That is inspiration for the majority of us as you can tell.

Those vids are such teasers.
:mdrmed:

We could use one that shows you launching like a rocket down the strip.

epitrochoid 12-10-2005 11:06 AM

i want to cry

everything is so neat and clean too, and that giant intake pipe is just beautiful. you should really consider entering in sport compact car's USCC. With a little more work on suspension, I think that car would win hands down.

truemagellen 12-10-2005 12:23 PM

did you relocate the battery to the trunk?

OneEvilRx8 12-10-2005 12:59 PM

tell me how much would you charge to do this project including evrything, all i would do is send you the car to the isla..

gracias, papa.

rgonza 12-10-2005 01:05 PM

Yes, We relocate the batt. to the trunk. Thanks ,epitrochoid i will take in considaration.

Sapphonica 12-10-2005 04:02 PM

It's too bad the revenue prevention team at Mazda is so powerful.

Otherwise, they would have a turbo 3-rotor RX-8 like this with a trick suspension & sell it for $40-45k (at least). It would pull a lot of gawkers into the showrooms, too.

This is totally sick...I wish I had the mechanical chops to do this myself!

:hitit:

:angel:

RX7TT 12-10-2005 05:43 PM

Jejejeje Te he visto en accion una vez saliendo del peaje de buchanan jijijiji dejando atras un subaru StI azul ace comos tres meses atras yo el del mazda twin turbo rojo que dejaste atraz tambiem como puedo contactarte, ahora tengo uno RX8 quisisera saber que hacer y el costo? se que hay una larga fila.

d'oh, sorry the problem was on my end

SomeGuy_sg 12-11-2005 09:08 AM

Mm..interesting project there with a relatively small budget. How did you get the MTX8 to work with the stock ECU ? How about a couple of pics of the engine mounts too. Did you make a custom oil pan ? or go dry sump ? more information please :)

More Videos please :D ;) hehe...

JeRKy 8 Owner 12-11-2005 10:11 AM

That's incredible.

Too bad I'll never have one. Would probably cost like $15,000 for us non-mechanics out there.

Synergy RX-8 12-11-2005 10:29 AM

Did anyone find out what the new red-line for this 3 rotor engine is?

RX8rider 12-11-2005 10:44 AM

How does this PR RX8 differ from the Acosta Motorsports 3 rotor turbo RX8? They're charging 60k for the mods and work and you guys did it for 7.5k, that's amazing!

Well they did say they did all the custom work themselves which saves a sh*tload of money. Dont get me wrong, I think Acosta is charging way too much as well, but you'd be surprised how much you can really save when you do the work yourself. Unfortunately I dont have the mechanical know how to pull off a project like this. However, 7,500 even seems a little low just for parts. Whatever though, the vids were great, car looks factory, sounds beastly. Amazing job!

SomeGuy_sg 12-11-2005 11:29 AM

Does 7.5k including the engine ?

epitrochoid 12-11-2005 02:40 PM

aside from the motor, turbo, and ems, what more off the shelf parts would you have to buy? obviously the mounts and tranny work were all custom made.

RX8PR 12-11-2005 05:46 PM

In PR you can buy a 3 rotor engine in good condition for $3000- $3,500 .........

Again Robert do it a lot of the custom work buy himself and saved a lot of money.
He do it this job by himself for the love and passion that he has for Rotary cars...........
not for saving money.

This car is not finished yet. Now he is goin to change the suspension and other works,

In the future he would go for the 900 HP range, but first he is goin to change a few thinks on the set up.

Manuel

timbo 12-11-2005 07:49 PM

This is an amazing story! Sort of merges my dream of having a Cosmo 20B as a cruise car, and the RX-8 as a daily drive (oh, yeah, my other dream is for my father to own an oil company;) )

Interested in the work you did strengthening the gear box. Did you do this yourself, or send it out?

Great work!
