you can lease a 750i for $950 a month

 

that is pretty sweet, but they were coasting down decker canyon

 

my fuel does not shut off anymore when i punch it getting on the fwy.
i get to 9500 and get off the gas. the last people to touch my car was tustin
mazda, i wonder what they did??

 

you mean it lets you stay on the regulater maxing out the RPMs?

 

i have not gone that far yet but it wont shut off where it use to.
afraid to take it to the max.

 

lol, yeah, but can you really see me driving a BMW? my car rides like a brick with wheels... and i love it... that would be a complete 180.... i thought you knew me better than that loren lol.... now had you said dodge viper... ........ im hoping to acquire one of those within the next few years i think.... or sooner

 

The fuel shut off is at 10,500 RPM not 9500

They did nothing.

 

fuel cutoff is NOT at 10.5

Michael: I can check it out on Saturday at the dyno meet.

 

i didnt mean, i was just saying...for that matter the GTR (if you could get you hands on one and if they even leased) it woudl be similar.

 

my fuel would shut off at 9500 rpm razz1
remember my car is not your car.
and you can not say anything other cause you
were not in the car with me as i was getting on the fwy.
wait!! were you..

 

Fuel cut off is 10,500 RPM. If you search you will find it.

you will also find many members expering that on the track too.

 

Razz, my young Padawan... You speak as though you know the truth yet you could not be futher from it.

This was talked about close to 5 years ago on this forum:
https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-tech-garage-22/does-rx-8-have-rev-limiter-17319/

I am not concerned as to what the guys on the track are experiencing as they spend SO much time near the redline, they could simply be hitting the fuel cutoff, continuing to hit the gas and THINKING that they're still drawing fuel. They are wrong.

DIRECTLY from Racing Beat:

 

Yo Razz - my brotha from anotha motha!

You're kinda steppin into my territory here my man....if you needed to borrow my screenname to do some trollin you coulda just asked.

 

There is a differance between hitting the redline at 9k and the rev limiter.

While the orginal limter may have been at 9500 many have taken it past this.
I have hit 10,500 quite a few times.

 

fuel cut off feels very weird. it's like your car suddenly jolts a bit and loses power.

i've yet to do it on the 8, but have done it in my 3 accidentally a few times. no beep, no warning, just JOLT, and no more fuel.

 

is it even worth the trouble prosecuting a new employee for petty theft these days?

 

my company can be kind of stupid sometimes. i think they want to make their lawyers earn there keep.
but my HR person says unless they admit it, prosecute..

razz1 how much work have you and the other track guys put into your cars, do see where i,m going.
your car is nowhere close to where it was when you first got it. the only thing i did was put an
intake on it, and that was 2 years ago. unless you saw what i saw,
the bases of your debate can not hold up..

 

lets all just wait till jeorge and michael meet up at the dyno day.

 

Michael: has it done it more then once? I can hook up my data logger, mash the pedal and we'll see where the cutoff is happening. (AFR's will show us where the fuel cut off)

^^pretty funny mazda news!

Congrats to Danica this last weekend!

 

haha, that's hilarious!

 

If you look at the side of the car, looks like they started taping off for a Renown Paint scheme on the Taiki.

 

You Are Right, OH AND BUY THE WAY I HAVE BOTH OF THE CARS THAT YOU WERE ASKING ABOUT FOR FORZA.

 

fricken awsome....now you just need to get your xboxlive account back up and running and send those babies to me so I can copy them.


Hey, if anyone is interested, Mazdspeed Monday on Forza. If the guys in that thread don't actually run tonight, I would be more than willing to host....starting at 7:00 pm tonight.

Looks like they are planning to run D, C, B, and A class....any Mazda, any tune.....

would be nice to have my Protoge paint by tonight...(hint, hint)


...oh, I forgot that I got a message from Xbox live saying it would be down for 8 hours today. I assume it will be fine by tonight, as it was not on this morning at 8:00.

 

if you can point out a reputable ebay member with a 12+1 account for buy it now, i will do it!? ($44)
