Hehehe..... CB liked the 8 so much coz i was drifting the 8 through the fast sweepin corners...... Hehehehe....... Shame that he ran out of memory during the final laps....... Those were the most fun laps....

Also had a dog-fight with a Porsche 996 C2 during the first session ......Bumper to Bumper.....

Hi Lennon, I just changed my ignition coil about 10months ago, am not sure if it will simply go off. I was told that this engine needs to be rebuilt after reaching 60K KM, this is how it works for most rotary engine. Is it true?

I am going to fix them and probably trade it in soon. But still wants to fix the car before doing so...

If you don't go diagnose, it'll just be a guessing game.... Compression test is needed to determine rebuilt....

I've a stage II scooby and it will leave my 6mt rx-8 at the lights quite easily. But when the road curves, the 8 will dominate.
