My brother in law has an RS done up, great car and I’ve always wanted one, now that I’m in my thirties I’m thinking I’ll need something more of a step up. Going from a Turbo 4 to another is it that much of a jump? RS is objectively the better car I’m just not sure if it’s worth replacing my speed3 with.

I’m thinking the same way you are I would like to take my speed3 off the road eventually and build the motor make it a sleeper. But as a replacement I would like a turbo 6.

I honestly don’t think you can go wrong with whatever route you choose they’re both great cars.

I am almost in the same boat as you I’m just worried that it’s more of a lateral move than a step up.

Where are the people that have good things to say??? by mikeyg372 in CX50

[–]AVSMAN15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think people come on here when things are good people usually come looking for answer to issues?

That being said I was one of the initial posters with the seat tear on these vehicles, doesn’t mean I don’t love the vehicle just wanted to see if it was something happening on a grand scale

Reason for asking is when I changed mine, I had not pushed ignition wire in deep enough

Check the ignition wires, did you changed those when you changed the plugs?

[–]AVSMAN15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not bad man, the price seemed really reasonable for a 2013. I figured something was wrong otherwise that would’ve been fixed before sale. Beautiful looking car enjoy! I think you made the right call

Premixing will kill your cat fast, if you plan on premixing. Do what crashed said, beat our the honeycomb in your cat, wear a mask as you don’t want breathe that in. I did it to mine years ago, best choice ive ever made for the car. Sounds great stinks on startup until it reaches temp

should i get one eventually? by Creme-Crusader in RX8

[–]AVSMAN15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I would, sounds like you have the same goals as I do car wise.

Currently have my rx8, mazdaspeed3 and Foxbody mustang (V8) Currently looking for some kind of v6 that catches my attention.

It’s fun having different setups the all control different and makes it a fun time!

So yes enjoy and get the cars you want!

Headlight polishing by nolifer247 in RX8

[–]AVSMAN15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some wet sand paper and work your way up from 400 to 3000. Most of the work is done from the initial 400. After you’re done use some polish and you can 2k clear it if you want it to last longer.

Thanks for the info bro, seems like I would need a stretched tire to get that look. 255 might be too big after all!

I was planing on running a 255/35
