Here is A Little info on my RX8.
I bought my rx8 here from a member that really just didnt take care of this car.
Info a 2004 rx8 6 speed. I drove to Mississipi to pick it up car. I got car for 3,400, some may so to much but I think is good since car runs good, I know it has low compression.
I bought BHR Ignition Kit A Red Top Optima Battery,NGK Irodium Plugs. Car starts and runs great everything works check engine for rear o2 sensor and radiator temp sensor, Car hessitates to start and once on is smooth and runs great but when hot it just cranks, Im sure is compression.

Anyways. Im going to rebuilt engine and going to port out engine not much just polish anything I can while wait for parts. I think im in right track since im getting mayor things out of they way first . My fuel pump is good ,has good pressure but once car is running im buying a walbro from BHR just to be in the safe side since is going to be my daily and my sons car in a few years so I want to know out mayor parts,

Any ways im porting and polishing engine just not sure where best place to buy parts from . I want them to last me about 100,000 miles I know I can get it done, Im hoping my housings are good . Anyways here is my Little project.

Should been a decent project. I'd get a case of brake cleaner, carb. cleaner, WD-40, and a ton of rags/towels. Idk where you are in FL but when I was down there with my 8 Ed Morse Mazda treated me pretty well; I'd trust them for the motor parts order.

Gl man, get some

^Thanks..Im going to check into them and see .

good luck man...can i have your rx-3?

^ Lol sometimes I wished I would of dumped all my money on my RX3 I would of had my 3 rotor lol

Well if you decide to write up some DIY threads you will be permitted to post them in that forum, but for now into General Discussion it goes ...

Good luck with the rebuilt. Keep us updated will ya.

Well so far is starting n running good .. smells a bit lean .. I been busy with yunk cars so far I've notice Atkins rotary has the best prices for a rebuilt kit. Question do you really need new corner seals. ? One sUs yea other says no ?

I got engine out yesterday , thanks rotary resurrection for his thread it came out soomthly , pictures to come when I get a chance.

yeah im using Atkins rotary for my seals. I have my car at some known Rotary mechanic and he is doing the rebuilt for me. I cant wait. Check my post for pics on how it looked inside.

Thanks I just saw your rebuilt nice car man, I haven't heard anyone tell you that rx8 is a different engine from previous engines lol... I hear that a lot here when someone says something about rx7 engine builders lol
