Jedi,

that is one of the reason that I asked for help here.
probably someone can give me information on a good replica
that fits good.

the original mazdaspeed is 3 times more expensive, is on $612.50 on rosenthal
but if I can find it at a better price I can buy the original.

thanks for the help!

Manuel

we all looove your setup 10.2 is some crazy number though.

you're one of the reasons why i chose to go with 20b!

how's your dogbox holding up?

 

RGonza is All of my reasons to get a 20B. I personally saw that gray monster of his and let me tell you guys........... Its crazy.... plus he is a hell of a guy...
Saludos a Gonza y espero que el avion, que diga el R8 corra los 9...

 

If ya need axles, I got 'em in-stock. I can even do custom apps like Cobra diffs.

 

It's holding very good, but the street drive (shifting at low RPM) are no much good very harsh to shift at low RPM but at high shift very nice. consider to buy a good multiplate clutch, a good set of axles, Charles R Hill sell a good set of this, good lsd, kaas have a good one.

Hope you start enjoy your car very soon!!

Regards
Rgonza

 

rgonza,

a small technical thing i need to know from u is. how do u go about the Throttle body?
RX8 is using throttle to control the traction control, 20b is using cable rather than electronics.

 

my is not using a factory throttle body (DBW), it using a throttle from wilson manifold for ford mustang 110 mm. the traction control algolimth is controlled a stand alone plc and it send an 5vdc signal to haltech ecu to retard the ignition curve.

 

Looks Good!

 

can i use a throttle body of a different car as long its a 110mm?
can u teach me more about the traction control? i am not sure how this been done. what is the stand alone plc? and how to send an 5vdc signal to haltech?

 

I'm back in Puerto Rico after my vacations in Oahu, Hawaii and
Huntington Beach, CA it was really good but now is time to continue working.

I saw more RX8's in Oahu than in Los Angeles, California !

not to many rotor heads in California?

I have plans to visit Huntington again for the US open of Surfing
that is from July 24 to 27, 2008 On my next visit I would like to meet some rotor heads on the Huntington area......................................

Merry Christmas to everyone............

Manuel

 

I may be able to make sure I am out there for "business" purposes on those dates. I wonder if I am going to see as many 8s as you did when I hit HI in Feb.?

 

lets make some noise:



"Uncork your engine's performance with Quick Time exhaust cutouts.
With Quick Time electric cutouts, you can have the best of both worlds--they're quiet for the street, and wide open for the strip. These electrically controlled exhaust valves bolt to standard cutouts, and can be opened and closed from inside the car with the flip of a switch. Using the convenient interior-mounted switch, you can go from stealth quiet to wide-open power. You control the volume, and you control the flow. Quick Time exhaust cutouts fit any car or truck, from old-school musclecars to high-tech imports."

Did Joel mention my axles to you yet, Manuel?

 

Man you were in my backyard.... too bad I didn't know you were coming, or I would have hooked you up with the local rotorheads and maybe hit a bar or two. PM me next time you are coming, and I will hook you up.

 

Charles,

Joel already buy them?

slavearm,

I have plans to visit CA again in 2008,
my idea is to goes between last week of May and the first week of June, My kids wants to visit disneyland this summer they already visit the disney in Florida and I offer them to goes to the disney in CA, the reason is that I want to visit all the surf shops in the Huntington area or near that area to buy some surfboards. That is my real passion, surfing. I really like T. Patterson surfboards his shop is in San Clemente.


So next time I would PM you!

Manuel

 

Yah, make sure you hook up with someone in SoCal if you are going to disneyland. Local residents get a much better price on tickets.

 

Manuel, I am having the axles black-oxided and they should be done well in-time for Joel's Febraury race schedule. It'll be a couple days before they are done and boxed up. The kits are all done aside from the oxidation protection.

 

Manuel, van a ir al Rotary Road Trip a finales de enero? Pienso ir a ver si nos encontramos!

Manuel, are you going to the Rotary Road Trip at the end of January? I'm planning to go maybe we can meet!

 

neit,

On January 27 I have a flight (business trip ) in the morning...........
I would be in Venezuela and Colombia for a week.

sorry!

Manuel
