Interested in the turbo parts

Hi

Cant open those pics...

Well, Jamie allready asked that if there any R3´s 

But Im curious, are they all with normal diff ratio or does any of those have "shorter" diff?

Well I’ve got to take the rear subframe out of one of them so I’ll I can always have a look

That looks in reasonable condition.

Are any of the 5 road worthy or they being broken up because of issues ?

Most aren’t but the ones that are were sold on the condition they don’t go back on the road which is why there are all for parts.

And the rest... let’s hope this works!

Car no 1

Lol if they were r3’s I wouldn’t have 5 or be breaking it! 

Unfortunately not sorry

Hi, all I have build my self a small collection of Rx8’s I have 5 in various colours! as I planned to use them to make one good one out of all of them.

I’m happy to answer any questions and will do to the best of my knowledge.

1 I know is very well known in the rx8 scene
1 is turbo’d
The other 3 are more or less standard other than the odd basic upgrade.

I am happy for anyone to come and have a look and can post any parts required

Thanks for looking

Will try and add pics soon

The 8 standard pcm does a throttle flyby wire check on start up thats why theres a seperate ETV relay which position 2 switches on and the throttle body does a start up wot check the TB pots feed back into loom to check this..before cranking this etv relay drops out again a check of safety control....if this does not happen car runs but throttle pedal does not work...its in limp..
Im not sure if this is retained on a standalone adaptronic...
Clives car has fully functional flyby wire throttle...
Adaptronic need asking if this function is retained on 8 ecu...else it will not work.
The rx7 apexi to run the 7 engine only needs 2 lives eng cont and eng cont 1. I dont know why that wont work? I was starting a rx7 fd race car wire but i got ill and couldnt complete and got far behind with my own projects.
The 8 dash needs the 8 ecu (pcm) to work.abs tc etc as on can bus....ideally all abs tc etc needs junking else it infers with cars power.

Me..id be looking at standalone dash.
Junk abs tc etc...rx7 apexi run engine.
This is not a road car? Rx8 pcm...does loads not just run engine...

Have a read of Clives build thread.


Ok boosted if the rx8 idea seems more hassle than its worth could u do a pic or something to show me how to wire up a apexi please 

Ok gd advice thanks I’m still going to use cable throttle as the car has this already
And Clive was it this kit

Ok,

what did you do about the trigger setup?

I’m running twin 044s with swirl pot return back to swirl tank and using a aeromotive fuel pressure regulator.

Hi everyone,

I bought a rx8 with a single turbo rx7 engine a few months ago but my biggest issue with it was it was using an rx7 engine loom and rx7 Adaptronics and trying to get it running has been a nightmare especially after having to redo almost all of the previous owners work!
So after taking in a lot of advise and ideas I have decided to change the engine loom with a rx8 loom and an rx8 Adaptronic ecu,
Most of it I think I know what to do and other stuff I will be able to workout
but the one thing I need advice on is what to do about triggers and how I can keep a throttle cable instead of fly by wire.

Any help would be really appreciated

Yes to both of you.

It was really nice to meet you all and I loved seeing all the cars
