So, your buddys modify an engine (210 to the wheels), it blows the timing chain, they still keep turning it over, and they expect Honda to fix it for free? Yeah, keep hanging out with these people.

Motors go. All brands of motors, from every make. Some go more often or more quickly than others. It's not out of the realm of possibility that a Honda motor broke before 100k. I wouldn't take that as "proof" of anything or connect it in any way to the reliability of our motors. Some people have tons of problems with the Renesis. Others don't have any problems at all. Among those of us without problems, we do have to spend more effort taking care of them to keep it that way.

Today as i was leaving the dealership; some guy with an older red RX7 go into his car as i was getting into my RX8, we were both trying to get out of the lot and when we past each other we both looked at each other and nodded.
That's whats cool about Mazda owners, everyone I've met has an awesome respect for their cars and the people who drive them.

I believe most rx7 owners are still in the closet.. most of them dont know anyting about the rx7 and bash on it because its not faster than the last rx7 model.. Im sure most rx8 owner wont like the next RX vehicle if one ever comes out.

Yeah most people dont know what the heck vtec does. I also was not aware of how much oil those motors burn... my buddy said he has to constantly check the oil especially if he keeps going into vtec. It still amazes me that people are still scared of checking the oil on a rotary engine.. It isnt gonna bite!.. Much! hehe

^ it does bit in the series 1 engine with the dipstick being in such a tight space, anyhow i use to own a civic before i got the 8. I got out of the "honda game" because the community was so annoying. Nothing but teenagers that though they could take on the work just because they have vtec, 17 inch wheels, fog light and a 4 inch exhaust with a 2 inch midpip with headers!
