very interesting swap, care to share any more details?
What made you pick the 1jz?
What kind of horsepower goals do you have?
Cost?
etc.

Nice, looks like they are using the 1jz ECU for the engine and RX8 ECU for everything else. A stock 1JZ can still put down about 100WHP more than a stock Renesis and way more torque.

The fact that there are hidden details of reverse-engineering the RX8 instrument cluster to run off a non Mazda PCM makes my mouth water. (I am assuming it is an elegant, information-driven hack and not a cut and replace.)
Incredible thread. Honestly think it is unique in the history of rx8club. I cannot recall anyone popping on here with a brief announcement of a major swap and posting pictures of the finished product.
