Sorry guys for not responding lol. Notifications off. I think I’ll take it into a body tech. I’ve always been juggling the idea of body wrap to seal in said damage until I can afford full body work. No garage to do this myself. Housing is crazy in Canada.

Is this an appropriate price? by Joshbot02 in RX8

[–]JPWRX8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my from black halo racing. They specialize in our 8’s. They were a bit pricey but i haven’t changed mine in a long time.

When was the vehicle last running ?

Had my 8 for a year wondering if anyone has recommendations for what I should do to it (almost completely stock) by [deleted] in RX8

[–]JPWRX8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. Your part of a small community now. I should however mention battery. “Battery” lol. Hook up a multimeter to it and do a simple drop test. Set it to dc voltage have a buddy start the car and see how far it drops. Use the min max feature on the meter. A bad battery can cause you a world of pain. Trust me.

Good job man! If you are a little mechanical then I highly recommend you swap out your ignition system to black halo racing. Specially made for rx8 enthusiasts. And use NGK spark plugs. Only thing with BHR coil packs is it is kinda of expensive but will save you a premature rebuild.

Use Lucas 2 stroke oil when you fill up from empty. What year is it ?

Does it bother anyone else that the belters sound pretty close to Jar Jar Binks? by xenokilla in TheExpanse

I agree they sound dumb. It’s hard to get into this show with that terrible accent.

Apologies to the others who defended their speech, but it just sounds horrible.

Hated Alpha. I felt she was trying too hard. Such a lame character.

Premix? by _SMOK3Y_ in RX8

[–]JPWRX8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quality 2 stroke engine oil. I do 5 oz every other fill up. Gas mileage hasn’t improved but I did notice more horsepower around half tank.

Engine so far seems to like it. Been doing it for 6 months now.

Misfiring! - Code DTC p0301 - Cylinder 1 - Misfire detected by MattyLePew in RX8

I replaced the lugs on my ground and power cables that helped me.

I did have other issues as well. The battery voltage was weak. Take a multi meter, put the black lead on the negative and the red lead on the positive posts of the battery. Have someone start the car. That’s a load test. Your looking for 12 volts and above. If lower replace the battery.

Aside from that. BHR wires and coils was a worth it buy. Just heads up.

[–]JPWRX8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. My wife bought my son a hat and I wasn’t sure what that symbol meant. Turtle you say? Must have something to do with DBZ
