How to know Rx8

[benyeap]

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.

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

 

[benyeap]

SS-II of course

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Yesh! 190hp FTW

 

[learning86]

ohhh ...normal celica 1.8 (A) no power ah ? if 1.8 (A) 140HP vs Honda civic 2.0 155Hp ...with 1 better ?

 

[savahn]

i would choose the Civic. It's faster in a straight line, more torque, and more stable on corners. The Celica a bit soft.

And that one is kinda apple to orange comparison. If want to compare, should be Celica with Integra.

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

K20 ftw

It sounds much better than the Celica's stock engine also haha, but then again its personal preference...

 

[learning86]

[benyeap]

FD2R also priced much higher than ZZT231

 

[learning86]

[benyeap]

According to Bermaz, the new facelifted RX-8 has its reliability improved as well as more compatible with local weather) than the recons (even compared with post-2006 auto models). Is this true??

 

[LittleWhiteWagon]

Yeah it only gets rear double wishbone thanks to the K20, its bigger than the older B and D series engines thats why theres no more front wishbones...

Might be true... as the earlier batch of the RX-8 have a known issue with the electric power steering which will judder violently when starting the car from cold. It cost around RM5000 to replace it.

On a side note, did you know that the RX-8 was featured in this book in MPH Bookstore called 501 Must-Drive Cars?

 

[learning86]
