How to know Rx8

[LittleWhiteWagon]

VQ35? If I take the FWD one can larh, its been done in the states so many times

But really lah, I dont understand. How can u fit a RB into space meant for a 4G63? The 4G63 is mounted sideways but the RB is front to back. I really wanna see how the owner did it .

 

[effie]

Its not impossible. Proton R3 built a Waja fitted with a SR20DET engine (also "front to back" mounted). RWD for drifting. Tengku Djan uses it for demos...

The SR20 is 4 cylinder, not 6.
Its so much shorter -.-"

And if im not mistaken, the gearbox and all is shifted to the back also right?

tat waja fire wall also cut...shifter position have 2 custom welded n joint

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Well, what you think if you add 2 more cylinders and 600cc more?
Like I said lah, it can be done, but for what? You got money anythings possible :).

So this guy, why did he swap a 2J into his fairlady? Not enough power ar?
I really dont belive about the Evo swap lah, that kinda swaps are usually just for drag, period.
On a street car is kinda well... dumb :stupid:

Regarding the used RX-8 I found, the seller is very cocky... kept saying I am not serious buyer just because I asked for further discount & also 5 months ago he knew (from his automotive frens) I'm looking for another type of car. Maybe can't join you guys in RE yet. Dunno this seller is active here or not, he & his group of frens all drive 8 & all of them disposing their 8 together. Sigh... maybe will reconsider Celica ZZT231 again now.

Get a manual!
Celica ZZT231 + auto = Slow haha. (No offence)

Yea found 1 super strut manual, going to see tomorrow. Anyway the used 8 seller still not sure he dared to reply me or not after I sent him a very pissed off sms. Even I sold my MR-S last time also not even 10% as cocky as him.

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Ooh nice, its hard to find manual in those
Is it the one with 190hp or 140?

 

[benyeap]

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Yesh! 190hp FTW

 

[learning86]
