A little RX8 front end trivia...
For all those mechanically inclined, here is a little educational game -for me at least. I jacked up my car today to check on a few things I thought may have gone sour after a little Armadillo encounter....well, anyways, I started looking around and decided to take pictures of several things. Some of them I can't even remotely name or recognize them, some others I have a vague idea of what they are or what are they called. Anywho :o let's see who is the first one to list all of them correctly by name.
Here are the photos, each one of them with at least one component circled and numbered: Edit: I am getting these fixed..... :mad: https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...id=48268&stc=1 https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...id=48269&stc=1 https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...id=48270&stc=1 https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...id=48271&stc=1 https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...id=48272&stc=1 |

Solenoid I don't see any 'dillo remains... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: BTW, the armadillo just managed to tore the undercarriage engine cover to pieces...I was worried about the O2 sensor and any of the other things which are exposed down there. I drove by the 'scene' later on today, and saw the poor old thing on the road...belly up. :( |

First pic is the leading plug along with a seriously over-engineered engine ground..
The bottom of the pic has the oil level sensor. Third pic...an Rx-8 on 5 armadillos? I bet they work good for wheel chocks.. |
oh yeah the not numbered pic has a serious ground point but i didnt answer since nothing was circled. yeah that s what charles is talking about. the point of that is it helps chasis rigidity by locking the entire power train together. charles wants to make a lighter one.

Not an armadillo, but an opossum. Will it suffice?
