Sound, I would imagine the front end is lighter, especially with you just running the renesis compared to the piston engine so the standard/softer than an rx8 roll bar would be better?

Drawn up some brackets.

Cut them out of metal, 3mm mild steel.

Just need some metal glue now.

Got some more bits to make but these are the bits the will mount to the engine and the subframe

I would suggest that the RX-8 Roll bar will be better anyway as it will be a stiffer bar.

Racing Beat make two types of anti roll bar for thew NC, one which is stiffer than stock and then a "race" bar that is actually listed for the RX-8 as well.
I would say that stiffness wise, the stock RX-8 bar will be between a stock NC bar and Racing Beats first upgrade.

Neil is using my garage to brake an newer 07 plate RX8
Front anti roll bar has a dot on it
Do you need it ?

Can anyone tell me what these ports are for? I'm thinking oil pressure and maybe water temp? I can't remember though

Looks like a Gen 2 or earlier rear plate, anyway, here you go.

Thanks Clive, yes it is a second gen plate. Carl used 2nd gen plates, 3rd gen housings and rotors and I think maybe and rx8 Crank but not sure on that one

What rotor gears it has on end plates?

No idea. Carl probably can't even remember it's been that long. He built knowing it was for drag racing, although it hasn't had any studding on dowelling

Oh, I see. Then I reckon that it has FDs or Eights, cause they are stronger than FCs

Cut the red and white wire on the passenger side window motor plug and connected it to the +positive terminal off the battery... Few Sparks and boom window went up. Ran out of motivation and only just realised what I needed to do to get the windows up today

Naturally on the drivers side mazda use different wires so the green and red puts the window up.

White and red puts the window down
