GOOD LUCK

 

What is the plan ?

 

Drink beer, pull out hammer and resolve the problem.

high Level plan.
pull out the plug, chase the threads, clean out the shavings. rinse and repeat if necessary.

IF for what ever reason the above plan fails, pull motor, cert the plug hole. There is the possibility getting a wild hair and port and rebuild. That costs money i don't currently have to spend.


I really feel it will be nothing more than chasing the threads. Then cleaning up the mess

 

damn 09, this build is looking amazing.
Good luck with that damn spark plug, hopefully it's a quick fix and you're back on your way with this thing.

 

Thanks for the good wishes guys.

 

sorry i dont get it why wold you boost a automatic car?!?

 

same reason you boost an M/T
to get more hp, to go faster, because you can????
want me to list more reasons?

 

So you have issues with someone wanting to increase performance of their ride

 

wow take something and run with it would ya im just expressing how i feel i always felt that if you were going to work a car it should be stick not only because its more fun to drive but you can time your shifts perfect to what you want

 

and knock your self out give me all the reasons in the world jus makes no sense to me i personally never liked automatic and only way i would have a auto 8 which i never would is if it was my dd

 

Dear pineapplesoymilk, (wtf..?)

Nobody gives a flying f*ck how you feel about it.

So either post something meaningful pertaining to this thread or GTFO.

Oh, and die in a fire.

Love,

oh and 05 rex8 hope you go to dgrr next year im going maybe we can ride together

 

I have no idea what you just said. There is a thing called punctuation, you mouth breathing twit.

Does this thread look like the OP wants opinions on what transmission his car has?
It's a turbo build thread. Not a thread for some n00b's opinion on how he doesn't like automatics.

 

ok bro im sorry like i said i appoligized and your right im a noob to rotary cars but have grown to love then like everyone else. soo im sorry lets let this thread get back to where it was before i said **** we cool now?

 

Valid question.
Why not? Auto's are not everyone's cup of tea and neither are Sticks. Plus I'd break the MT glass gear box anyway with my 1337 driving skilz

Thanks for getting my back guys.

I'm cool with it.. When the 8 first came out, alot of the purists poo-pooed the AT. No "sports cars should ever come with a slush box". Sticks are KING! Crap like that. It got old FAST ! Some of the passionate Rx-8 drivers really don't take to the sometimes ( perceived or not) AT/MT bashing question. Sometimes it gets heated. People have been banned, ect.

It really dosen't matter anymore MT/AT AT/MT Boost, NA, NAWWWWWWSSSS. A Rx-8 is a Rx-8 at the end of the day regardless who is driving it.

 

For one I'm pretty sure no one has blown one up yet

Manuals get blown everyday, in stock trim let alone with extra power.

How about giving the guy some props for having one of the sickest custom turbo setups on the forum?

What have you done to your car?

 

I am confident we will be able to fix the spark plug. If not, guess we will port an engine for Dave if he can pony up for a new housing/soft seals...

For those that are hating on the autos; here is another auto we just finished...

 

i saw that fd on rcc

nice work!

 

Hey 09, I saw the first few pics witht the Turbo might be placed... I was told it was bad to have a turbo by the hood because of the heat the turbo produces, will it not make the hood very hot in that area and could cause paint damage?

 

i do give him props it is a sick *** car and i wasnt bashing autos my dd is auto and i have stance coilovers hotchkis fr and rear swaybars evo r end links and hks cat back not to much yea suspesion first then everything else

 

Fixed..

Daves gonna be a guinea pig for these non-resistors too

 

Dave LOVES being a guinea pig!

 

cool - what brand are they ? Will be interesting to see if they cause interference to the stereo ...

 

Maybe they will make one for 09Factor and put his name on it!? haha
