i really really hate to ask this question and im ready to be made fun of but what motor is in the 2004 rx8? 13b or 20b? i dont know the difference and im looking to replace my engine because mine is fried....

be nice haha

 

i might suggest that if you don't know that it's the 13b perhaps you shouldnt be replacing it yourself

 

13B is what you have.
20B is a three rotor engine and takes a lot to upgrade to.

 

The Renesis is a particular kind of side exhaust port 13B, which stands for 1.3 liter 2-rotor engine. But there are older 13B engines that are peripheral exhaust port engines. The 20B is a 3-rotor 2-liter peripheral exhaust port engine.

 

There are no dumb questions, only rude answers. Take it easy on the noobs.

 

thanks guys, excluding laythor... i asked nicely to be kind... no need to be rude

 

if you are replacing your engine you might as well put in the 20B

 

 

I don't think i was being excessively rude, blunt as hell....

 

Im with laythor on this one.

You should not even touch your car when you dont even know what kind of engine u have.

 

except you do need to check the oil.

 

it's even worst when the dealer has a hold of it and they need to know what to do and don't!

 

You have an 8 year 100K mile warranty on your motor. A replacement should be covered under warranty unless you have done something to void the warranty like turbo it.

 

K first of all since all you noob haters are just assumptionists with a bad attitude i will set you straight... I myself am not putting the motor in i am having a shop do it... i am buying the motor myself and taking it to them... and second you shouldnt be rude anyways this is an open forum where people can ask questions so get off the high mountain you think your own and dont say anything at all if your going to be rude.

Thanks for the advice on a dumb question from the people that were nice about it.

 

ok mom

 

k,
like you should b like reading arounds somemore and stuff..

weezze not your bitches and ****.. i got u b neededn to learnin on ur own. and stuff.

aint got no moutain here, boyz..

b thikin, g00Glz and shitz. yo.

beers

btw, you aspire to be dumb. tard is my first guess.

 

Don't worry about it. There are 3 or 4 people here who are constantly rude. They have good advice about the need to do your own reading. There's a lot of great information around here if you have the time to sift through it. But I also understand that sometimes you need to ask some basic questions before you can understand some of the information.

 

you imbecilic retard

there, you happier now? lol

 

after 55 posts and 8 months on this site you would think he is aware that n00bs get eaten alive unless they are quick on the draw....the smart ones do the home work and learn before posting....its only the "special" ones that get roasted quick

 

It doesn't really matter how many posts you have it depends on the quality, or lack therof, of the question. Spoonfeeding requests will always get flamed even if you're a regular here.

 

I am surprised that not one of you rude ******** has actually granted the OP's request in his his thread title. THAT is what makes ytou guys rude........

 

Good point Charles! JGR444, you are dumb! Naa, we all learn sometime but you really should read around first. The advice everyone has given is good no matter what forum you are on. Matter of fact you simply could have googled a question as basic as this without bothering to come on the site. Good luck w/ the new engine.

 

So harsh! At least ZoomZoomH called him an imbecilic retard.

 

RX8=2 rotor =13B

 

My stupid questions usually just get me ignored not flamed. You haters are slacking.
