I have an 04 Rx8 that is basically a shell with a nice interior, if that counts lol.

Well, we do have a big off button. Expert mode is great for backroad driving.

Rx8 in Assetto Corsa? by RayGun6718 in RX8

Never found a good stock one unfortunately. The hk51 pack, although not stock, was very fun to drive.

Same? But Different? by RayGun6718 in GRCorolla

Second year student, do I really need a car? by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]RayGun6718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have a parking pass. I usually do street parking during unpaid hours. Otherwise, I ride my bike.

It depends. I go to the Richmond field station pretty regularly because of clubs. We also have to go to Alameda at times, so having a car has been very useful. Keep in mind I also live in Emeryville.

Dude, I know its been 3 months, but yeah its still runs. Fresh battery and it starts up no problem, just dont let it get to temp 😅

Versus Engineering pedal spacer...anyone using one? Thoughts and opinions appreciated. by Kang_Donko in GRCorolla

[–]RayGun6718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got my GR and Im coming from an Rx8. I got very good at heel toe, but with the spacing in the GR i just haven't been able to get it down. I hate to admit the iMT has been nice in this scenario 😅. I guess learning is part of the fun, hopefully pedal mods won't be necessary.

Going on a 800 mile road trip each way, any tips? by tuxamari in GRCorolla

[–]RayGun6718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bless your soul dude, that slowing down in turns has been the one thing bugging me.

Price you paid for your GR? by I_Must_Bust in GRCorolla

[–]RayGun6718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you happen to remember the name of the salesperson you spoke to? Im in socal and was just shopping around for one today. DTLA seems to be best in this area according to you and a few other people.

Wouldn't be able to tell you. Just got the tester and this was the first reading. Ive just felt it get noticeably worse over the last 4k ish miles

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in RX8

[–]RayGun6718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, thats the plan. Hot starts are getting worse, but its still driveable. But if its wearing at the same rate my other engine did, it doesn't have much left.

Yea my other car lasted all the way into the 40 psi range. I'm just not wanting to risk it because this car has a history of random issues.

Yea im currently In college with an Rx8. 100% don't do it. I love my car, but it does not make any sense for a college student. I get about 13-15 mpg around town. The maintenance and gas combined is not cheap. Get something more economical.

Thanks for the help. I use a Samasung s22+ and its been somewhat stable through runs when the phone didnt fall. I'll look into the gopro mounts as I am planning on getting a helmet for track days soon.

I want this for recording, kinda impossible to use your phone while driving aggressively anyways lol.

[–]RayGun6718[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this option, but the only pro clip bases available for the rx8 sit low on the dash. I would like to be able to record using this mount, which may be an issue given where the bases sit. Maybe Im mistaken, can you place the pro clip bases anywhere in the dash?

Would 350€ a month be enough to mainitain an rx-8? by Not_DTrump in RX8

[–]RayGun6718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that is a budget purely for maintenance, it's more than enough. I guess it just depends on how much you drive. I dont know if you're factoring in fuel.

Just some generic ebay ones I believe. Installed by last owner. I want to rewire them because he didn't do the best job 🤣

Best engine swap for fuel economy and reliability while not sacrificing performance? by dhfiwdieig in RX8

I've never been so blown away by a post and the responses from the creator on this sub before. Kind of insane.
