Hi Vinche,
I've picked up my 8 at KC and it's looks great now. However, the sway bar still have some issue so i might be going to KC this friday afternoon to check it again.
And my tranny problem still havent solve. btw, Is it your 8 with lic plate # MV4xxx? Kit at KC mentioned a swap of ecu to try out and I dunno if that is you. If so, thanks alot but Im leaving town mid next week for 2-3 weeks so I can only contact Kit for this try after im back.
Wanna join you guys too but since I kinnda in and out hk alot so might be next time.
Also, im thinking of selling my 8 for z4 or r32 anyhow......

hi Patrick,
yes, thats me. And thats what I have suggested to Phillip/Kit - if it works this may save a lot of time/work for your 8. Hope I can help you in this regards.
I am also about to leave for biz trip tomorrow. I thinking if I can stop by KC this afternoon to have a quick swap. You can give me a call.
not wait until next RX ? z4 i am not sure for 2-seater but outlook is super - I love it as well, r32 is a fun car but too many gt, gti version confused me.

thanks dude, I've been to KC and fixed the issue of sway bar noise. its the brake pad afterall. never notice it would be the problem.
cos' we've brought a freelander 2 so it's time to get a real 2nd car with better gas mileage and 2-seater of course. ;0 open top would be great.
z4 is first choice but not much 2nd hand around. r32 is great in handling, engine, 4wd, dsg, price wise, but yea, it's too many golf around, slk is too much and i hate the outlook. might be alfa romeo brera as it have glass top and 260hp or so. but parts is hard to find like our 8 at the beginning.
honestly, my 8 give me a tough lesson on what car to choice nowaday.

I have found RE Amemiya has developed a special oil for NA engine 0W-20 or 0W-30 ? - this is especially for RX-8
I am using 0W-30 for NA engine I think it is ok. It is speed master full synthetic.
If you have turbo charged your engine - maybe previous developed engine oil for RX-7 like HKS, Trust, RE, R Magic and Knight Sports are best oils for you.
