Would like to introduce myself, just moved back into the area.
04 RX8 with a little extra 'something'.
Getting the engine rebuilt by Banzai motors right this moment.
Look forward to meeting some other rotary people over the summer.

Looks like quite the setup. what area are you in? You should check out stancewi.com its a somewhat small localish forum, but is growing extremely fast. They do 2-3 big shows every season and multiple meets.

Intro Time
Hey all, Figured I'd pop in and say hi, I'm From the Burlington/Lake Geneva area. Black '06 sport MT, Konig rims, and a batmobile spoiler. I literally just started driving her Wednesday, and the clutch went out on me last night on my way home..... If anyone would be nice enough to offer advice on replacements I would be forever in their debt. Thanks All!

Randy is the ****. He hooked me up with my RX8 and suggested the clutch to put in mine. I went with the ACT HD setup. The clutch is awesome except for some chatter and odd engagement at times. Probably due to jumping the gun on break-in.

For the people near the MN border the MN RX-8 Club is organizing a drive up and weekend stay in Duluth, all is welcome to join. The weekend of June 1st, Friday evening - Sunday afternoon. Those who can't make the drive can possibly meet up in the hotel we are staying at. All car fanatics welcome. FB link to event https://www.facebook.com/events/3422..._mall_activity

I appreciate the input guys, I'm pretty sure I'm going to upgrade the clutch to an ACT street clutch and the streetlite flywheel. I'm not looking for incredible amounts of power off the bat, but once I have the money Turblown engineering is definitely getting a call from me.

Afternoon guys,
I know Randy, i know Randy REAL well, hes good people. I bought my first American rotary from him and worked on my stage 3 G60 Corrado in his garage back in the day when he was living with a VW tech i knew.
I've already spoken with him and he'll be attacking the tuning for me, it should have gone to him 2 weekends ago, but we found an unexpected oil leak and i got SUPER sick this last week, so right now, it sits on stands over a piece of white paper, hoping to fix up the leaks this week.
