Yeah, its an R3.

It can't be a 3 Rotor (20B) if its an automatic, plus no 20b's are in are area unfortunatly and only a handful have been done in a s2 8.

carbon the 20b came in the cosmo and was only sold as an auto. its possible to drop a 3 rotor in an r3 but highly unlikely

Idk maybe the guy lied to me then he said he had the 3 rotor "paddle shift" which I thought is still automatic I thought. But I know that's what I was told is it has the 3 rotor

Either the guy lied, or he just thinks its a 20B as he was lied to by the original owner. I mean the car looks bone stock besides plasti-dip rims. Idk anyone putting 20K into a motor swap just to keep the OE exhaust

I see you found the Rochester club (nyrotorsports). The forums (nyrs, not rx8club) were down for a while, but I guess they are back...

Figured I'd poke my head in here and say "hi", been lurking on the forums since I bought the car (04' MT,VR) in '06. The only proof I can offer is the lack of a blue and gold plate, haha.

The plate grows. That site needs more activity, its laid out a little weird to but thats because its still a small group i suppose.
