Guys,
rgonza buy this car with a AT you can note on one of the pictures that the cluster is from and autmotatic Rx8, but when he installed the 20B he installed also a 6 speed maual transmission.
he already have a manual transmission gauge cluster but is not a priority to change the cluster, one day he would do it!

this thread is what gives me hope every day I imagine my engine blowing and not being under warrantly ... PITO racing in tampa is famous for building sick track rotaries ... he had a starlet running 9s I think turbo alcohol ... if anything I would just source a 20b and have him build my ****
#668
hey R Gonza you ever heard of rafelito ??? he had an FC back in the day is he still running, or do you have any idea ????? I know his car ran in bradenton and was imported from PR ... sickest rotary car I have ever seen run
the guy with the "nitrous" pina coladas w/ bacardi got me so messed up that the only shirt I bought and ended up keeping was the one I was wearing and it was a rafaelito shirt ... something like 8.9 ... full chassis

here is a pic of his starlet ... I dont think he runs it anymore
if I remember correctly it was named after his daughter, well if anybody is interested in seeing what the full potential of the renesis is capable of I suggest you look him up
I think he has a general auto shop off waters, and he used to work on my T2 FC he is a good guy and if you know spanish or have spanish friends I s'pose it would help b/c I speak very little spanish in regards to specific engine components and such
the dude that brought in the GTU and gsl FC into my job [search my threads started] said that he recovered a burnt RX-8 and is in the works of installing a 20b in it
I think if you guys could share information on the 20b in regards to the RX-8 you could accomplish a lot as far as the driveline and engine mounts and w/e
sorry mods if you want to join my posts you can I am drunk and coked up
peace

I would like to know more about this. I really want to join the 3-rotor club.
I would even like to try to do it myself as long as Mr. Gonzalez doesn't mind me asking questions on the best way to do each step - seeing as how he's done it twice now and obviously knows what he's doing.
