Read from other 8 forums there is this massive engine recall in the US. Anyone here knows if it affects us? I am collecting my 8 this Friday. Reading news like this made me worried.

 

weizzz

bro pyro,

im oso collecting mine this week. dun stress me leh....
u say this type of news hor really very stressful de.......
i think im going to call the guy to ask. but everytime i call him ask him things, he say "wun eh lah" - standard reply

maybe i go ask his boss....

 

I do not think the PI guys would know about it...MM maybe. I read this news yesterday from the US 8 forum. The aussie forum also mentioned this as well. I almost called my PI, but I reckon they know nuts as many PI do not know the car well enuff. We probably know more than them...****...I'm worried...if there is really a massive engine recall, would pple like me who bought from PI qualify for it? Yikes!!!!.......

 

The recall isn't out yet. Next week in the USA. Who knows if it will be worldwide. Wait and see. Don't worry.

 

Pyro and en en, which PI u order from?

 

Bought mine from CR...

 

chialat.....bought mine from HY, hopefully they do the rite thing

 

I think there is quite a lot of us who got it from PI.. so stay alert...

YUP, Mazda is recalling back all the Renesis engine! They gonna replace them with 20B!

 

20B with turbo?

 

den how den how? alll those from PI de how ah?
i just collcted mine today .....

 

Congrats! Dun worry lah... your car is not going to blow up tomorrow. So many RX-8s already running around for the past few years without major life threatening problems, so just relax and enjoy your new car.

 

To follow-up on Flyer's remarks.... its never too sorry to be safe. i suggest you all purchase a helmet to wear whilst you are driving for safety reason. Can look uber-cool and yet feel safe.

 

at the same time look like a ****???

 

this is what i found on the recall. NO QUESTION PLS

bro lowrider

why dun you start the ball rolling? perhaps u can take a pic with it. im very sure you will look damn cool in it.

i suggest u get a matching color helmet with ur 8 and best with a rotary sticker on it.
if im not wrong MM may have such helmets available.

do check it out.





oh ya rem show me the pic.

 

congrats en en for her new ride... enjoy the car...

 

i think wearing a helmet will really freak pple out. It is like turning and seeing Darth Vader in the car next to you. Plus it adds 10bhp. And you will look like the Stig from Top Gear.

Having said that, I should really remove the Bathing Ape stickers from my own helmet and replace them with rotary stickers. On a side note, has anyone seen the trailer for "The Ballad of Ricky Bobby"? Super funny lor

 

Gratz! Which PI did you buy from? Hope to join u all soon. Seems like Cat A COE on the up, dunno PI will still honor the deal if COE increase by like 8k...

 

saw one biker couple of days back...he super cool lah. Storm Trooper helmet.

 

But at least, look like a Big **** on wheels....
