Hi guys,
New on the forum but have had my rx8 about a year now.

S1 Full Swap#1)
I have an extra, clean, full JDM renesis, 6-port swap with 6 speed transmission, and all components from airbox to exhaust manifold including ECU. (Stainless exhaust manifold needs flattening on the flange which is why I pulled it off my car and took the OEM one from this engine, to put into my car).

I bought this swap from an older guy who bought this JDM swap for his 278,xxx mile rx8, which he ended up selling instead.

I bought it with the plan to rebuild it so I could have a backup when my engine wears out, or to build a 4-rotor, which I found out is much easier said than done, and not cheap...Pipe dreams.
It probably needs a rebuild because the thrust bearing had some play in it, but I don't know enough about these engines yet, and didn't want to tear it down until I needed to.
If nobody wants to buy it, I'll just keep it and build it up someday.

S1 Full Swap #2) Asking $2500, and can have it pulled when you buy it.
It's the one in my RX8 GT. OEM, matches the VIN with CARFAX history, runs strong and like a top, single owner had for 20 years and 88,000 miles, bought my me (a 40 year-old dude who rides a bicycle for transport), and only driven for 1 year and 2000 miles, with seafoam in the gas every tank of gas.
Only filled with Premium 93 octane BRAND gas, none of the Wawa, Kangaroo, or Walmart cheap ****.
Does not smoke, great compression because it starts up when cold, turned off and restarted, as well as when hot.
I ran some ATF through it after 1000 miles, changed the oil about 400 miles ago, and it felt like brand new.
Comes with new Mishimoto thermostat, and aftermarket header.
DM with your phone number for video of startup and driving. Can also videocall.
If you really want a clean rx8, I'd be tempted to sell the car as a whole, but only for 13k, which is what I have in it, including new bilstein suspension, new brakes, new goodyear tires, new Megan racing radiator, Mishimoto dual fans and shroud, new silicone hoses, new alternator, new S2 starter, new 3" Cat and full exhaust into modified OEM muffler to flow 3" pipe in, leather interior, garage kept, no scratches or dents, no accidents, clean title history, cleaned and detailed once a month.

No pics as of now, Swap 1 it is sitting in 3 big, wheeled crates. Those crates alone cost me about $300.
My loss, your gain.
Local pickup only in Orlando.
Cash, or Bank/Cashier's Check only, no personal checks or any wire/digital currency BS.
I can send pics this weekend, but as mentioned, the longblock (assembled) is in one crate, the accessories/components in another crate, and the transmission (never taken apart) in another crate.

Might trade for NC Miata Engine, subframe, steering rack, transmission, tranny brace, and ND differential.
