final drive mods?
While trying to decide between the S2000 and an RX-8, I noticed that many of the S2000 owners recommended changing out the final drive gears in order to get more agressive gearing. I'll admit that the S2000 is the only car where I've heard of final drive mods being made (perhaps because of it's 9000rpm rev range?) but wouldn't something similar be helpful in an RX-8 as well? Of course there's the usual speedometer being off but that can be fixed as well. Just a thought...

second- have you driven the car yet? perhaps you should do so before thinking about gearing mods. you just might find you like it just hte way it is.

Just musing about various upgrade paths that don't involve forced induction...
