those are the ignition coilsWangan,
this is a photo of the "upper arm", the triangular thing. the bushing are broken/cracked, those in red circles, including the ball joint (the red circle at the bottom). i did inspect them the other day and found that, the ball bearing seem unchangable. may be need to buy the whole upper arm. please check for me. thanks. "Need both Left and right side."
please aslo remember to find me a set of the autoexe link.

already ask ah choy, he say 20b not ngam rx8. cause rx8 is electronic base car. and 20b is more suit for rx7. so he suggest to rebuild and might change to 6 speed manual. depends on price and time frame of the work.

I'm curious! Is it RM11,000 or Brunei Dollar 10,000?? If it's RM, then definitely not brand new....... BTW, many Aus tuners bought engine from Mal b4, like hard-to-get20b....

why not If there's someone go down to KK for the engine rebuild ?Getting a brand new engine the price will let u rebuild ur engine for twice wow.Brand new engine will still blow someday is just matter of time.I bet benny won't keep the car for so long rite?... Does it mean that after rebuild the engine it will still maintain in perfect condition rite?or Any different after rebuild?like lost a bit power etc.....

New engine won't blow so fast wan.
It's all about whether you overhaul your car in time before they blow or not.
Bear in mind, no doubt all our cars show low milage, they could in fact be high milage but altered by car dealers. Afterall, it's been 3 years or 4 years for most of our rx8s.
