How does this project affect the 50/50 weight balance the car has?

Moostafa29

Gonza, excuse my ignorance brother, but didnt you tell me that your car was automatic? Is that true and you're using the automatica transmission with the 20b? Also, what type of gauges are those? Thanks.

omg

wtf

that is an A/T 8

SlayerRX8

Yeah...maybe I'm just a noob, but that makes sense to me. Wasn't the Cosmos 20B an Auto?

El Kabong

I think he's saying that the RX-8 started out life as an automatic, but now sports a manual 6-speed that's been modded.

Guys,

rgonza buy this car with a AT you can note on one of the pictures that the cluster is from and autmotatic Rx8, but when he installed the 20B he installed also a 6 speed maual transmission.
he already have a manual transmission gauge cluster but is not a priority to change the cluster, one day he would do it!

Uhmmm No bad idea

rgonza

Think the 8's autotranny with fews mods with sport shifts paddles and shiftting to 9,000 with 650 RWHP O.M.G. Why spend 250,000 dollars in a Ferrari!!!!

this thread is what gives me hope every day I imagine my engine blowing and not being under warrantly ... PITO racing in tampa is famous for building sick track rotaries ... he had a starlet running 9s I think turbo alcohol ... if anything I would just source a 20b and have him build my ****

Dro

hey R Gonza you ever heard of rafelito ??? he had an FC back in the day is he still running, or do you have any idea ????? I know his car ran in bradenton and was imported from PR ... sickest rotary car I have ever seen run

the guy with the "nitrous" pina coladas w/ bacardi got me so messed up that the only shirt I bought and ended up keeping was the one I was wearing and it was a rafaelito shirt ... something like 8.9 ... full chassis

Dro

if I can find the shirt I know I can spell his name right

Dro

here is a pic of his starlet ... I dont think he runs it anymore

if I remember correctly it was named after his daughter, well if anybody is interested in seeing what the full potential of the renesis is capable of I suggest you look him up

I think he has a general auto shop off waters, and he used to work on my T2 FC he is a good guy and if you know spanish or have spanish friends I s'pose it would help b/c I speak very little spanish in regards to specific engine components and such

the dude that brought in the GTU and gsl FC into my job [search my threads started] said that he recovered a burnt RX-8 and is in the works of installing a 20b in it

I think if you guys could share information on the 20b in regards to the RX-8 you could accomplish a lot as far as the driveline and engine mounts and w/e

sorry mods if you want to join my posts you can I am drunk and coked up

peace

Dro

hey btw I just found on rx7club and on my shirt that it was actually a 7.87 with possible webber and on my shirt it says "turbo alcohol" and a waving PR flag !!!!!111

i know im so whyte LOL

but at least I had a FC TII and went with all mah buds who translated for me

20B on ebay.. here's your chance.

You know you want to. And if I had the $3700 he's asking - I'd buy it right now and figure out ow to put it in later..

RX8PR

We buy our 3 Rotor engines in Puerto Rico for less!

Manuel

knonfs

Hell yeah with know Rafaelito!

He ended up running a 7.47 on that car; he will be racing a RX8 and hopes for a 6.9 timeslip on it

The Mighty Red

Maybe I should buy one there. How cheap? I wonder how much it would cost to ship one to Texas... any ideas?

Maybe the best deal is to find one in Japan and have it shipped directly from there.. thoughts?

I would like to know more about this. I really want to join the 3-rotor club.

I would even like to try to do it myself as long as Mr. Gonzalez doesn't mind me asking questions on the best way to do each step - seeing as how he's done it twice now and obviously knows what he's doing.
