From the same guys that brought the blue 3 rotor rx8. We have aquired a 2005 white RX and a 2JZ with a manual trnny. Car will be a daily driver and will retain its twin turbo setup (if possible). Not mybfavorite motor for the 8 But an amazing motor never the less. Pics will start flowing in the next couple of days. Lets see how this one comes out.

 

awesome man. does that mean i can haz you 20b 8? please

 

Let me think about it........... nope.. lol

 

jk man. gl with the build, cant wait for pics.

 

Nice, will you try an retain all factory functions?

 

Yes 9krpm. Thats the plan.

 

 

Base Auto huh. Are you planning on a big brake kit? 2005?

 

2005 base model. It will eventualy get a Big brake kit and a whole bunch of goodies, but for now we are going to concentrate in thr swap itself.

 

If this comes out anything like your 20B, it'll be a well executed swap. Looking forward to seeing this one completed.

 

Looking forward to following the build. Good luck

 

Nice nice nice, can't wait! I've seen a couple, but not that nice.

 

If it was done to an FD, see no reason why it can't be done to the 8. Not too fond for a 2jz swap but interested in seeing the finished product, good luck!

 

sub'd

this should be cool...

 

Badass build! What are you doing for a big brake kit?

Also, how do you plan on retaining oem functions?

 

Λ The same way you retain the functions for a rotary swap!

 

put a renesis front cover on it haha

 

 

VVTi just kicked in yo! Lol

 

Why no isuzu v6 swap?

 

This motor was originally going in a 1972 celica, which was our project but then desided to look for a newer body car and why not an Rx. Its my brother's car so thisbis what he desided.

 

2JZ no ****.....Sorry Joel, I just had to....

 

Lol.. no worries.

 

I think you should do another 20B, I missed the first one

Goodluck on the build.

 

l let you drop a 20b in my 8
