no, nothing happened to the car, it is a motor swap, the rx8 was in perfect condition, the engine was taken out last week with all the parts completely stripped. The 2jz motor was shipped from japan, it had 2000 kilometer and it came out from a supra that was wrecked.

When's the last year they made the supra?
I really doubt a Supra motor with only 2k km on it has been sitting around that long, unless the seller was asking a VERY VERY VERY high premium for it.

With the amount of people that competitively drag supras and blow their motors, im sure one with 2k kms on it would have gone MANY years ago.

your hybrid is going to understeer like it's on ice.

no doubt you'll beat all renesis in a straight line, but if you're seeking for a drag bragging rights, you're posting in the wrong forum. none of us bought our 8 to turn it into a 10sec drag rocket.

Funny, I would think that if you were going to put the car back together there would be no need to strip out all the things you have to put back. Also there is alot of sheet metal hammering in there for it to be perfect.
It just seems odd that you took all the piping ang wiring out. the oilcoolers off and all the suspension. Why would you take out the headlights? The AC, the controls and everything else.

Even good machanics can't get a car back together properly from where you are. I hate to think about beginers.

if you're going to threaten to race another 8... race one that has a swap done to it... say a 20b turbo?

The rule is: If you're picking a race with me, I get to decide the track!
