Ok I came over hear from the RX-8 forum for one reason, to learn about the rotary engine. This is my first one and I thought that a forum with experienced rotary tuners would be better than a bunch of newbies on the RX-8 forums.



If there is any advice that you all can give that would be great. BTW I'm not a stuck up rich jackass, I bought my 8 for the sole purpose of tuning it and having a good time. Here are a few photos so far, of both of my rides.



Thanks

Here it is setting up for the NOPI Nationals







Here is my Eclipse in the Motegi Racing RO_JA booth at NOPI in Atl.

 

Hey those are some sweet rides!!

What are your goals for your rx-8?



Tips - Always make sure you have gas in the tank, rotaries cant run without gas , LOL, j/k.



Ah well rotaries are known for overheating , so I would tell you to keep an eye on your temp guage and stuff like that and keep your radiator lines and equipment up to date and stuff, but since you have a rx-8 it shouldnt really have overheating problems as mazda should of gotten rid of them.

 

Thats not true.



You only run into heat issues when you bolt a turbo charger up to the side of the engine.



Anyway, nice car Chris. Are those SSR's on the 8?

 

Congrats on the 8.....welcome to the rotary world!!
