Regarding the video's description, if you continue building it and the videos stay at this quality (a little longer would probably help too), I don't know how your channel wouldn't grow precipitously. This is fun stuff. Keep it up, and this might actually become a car channel.

Thank you! although I don't want it to be just a car channel haha but it should be fun, documenting my entrepreneurial journey as I scale my business, but also just fun stuff I do such as the jeep I just bought yesterday! I appreciate the kind comment!

When did you do this track day? Was this from the summer? The weather hasn’t been great over the last few months.

Great production quality, and very informative, the rx8 has always been intriguing to me and is a dream car of mine. I stayed away from them due to their cost of ownership but hope to pick one up in the future

Ive always wanted to run a chopped bumper its got mad 00s JDM vibes from the honda days. and the rear end of the car can take it. be careful with aero balance with that diffuser and not having any front treatment. if you havent consider moving the battery behind the passenger seat, and running the AEM intake. it frees up alotta space above the radiator to help extract heat. it look slike you are running a decently wide tire and yes those shock are way under damped for car control. do springs and shocks first then dial in balance with sway bars. not the other way around. keep up the progress. its high time the rx8 gets some love and im seeing it more and more on youtube. If you havent start premixing oil, look at ditching the cat, sohn adapter and the S2 oil coolers are a direct upgrade.

My guy, I know you aren't new to this by any means, but I hope in the future you wear gloves. The amount of times I have sliced my hands wide open and wished I had gloves on at this point in my life is unquantifiable. Godspeed.

What size aluminum did you use for trunk? And sealant?

@rossbuchanan 3 ай бұрын

I think it was 1/8th? Not sure though. Solid enough that it didn’t flex or bend

oil metering pump delete and always pre mixing or oil metering pump adaptor to run 2-stroke oil. This is a good mod because you no longer need to compromise oil choice between good at lubricating and good at burning. If you want to keep the stock ecu you will need mazda edit or versa tuner to remap. Versa tuner has more features and better software but is more expensive. The second option is a stand alone. The only plug and play i know of is the adaptronic which would allow wideband and much more The standard catalytic converters fail. If you want something reliable which you can daily because it does not reek of fuel you need to go with a sports cat if you don't care go with a decat(when decating a remap is a very good idea because it can trip limp home mode). A decat would also require an air pump delete. Cold air intakes sound nice but the standard system is very well designed. I know k and n sell a system which gives you ~3 hp and costs ~400 dollars. Equal length exhaust manifolds are not as good as other engines since the renesis has a siamese exhaust port. It also changes o2 sensor location.

you forgot no drag Inducing rear bumper in your thumbnail... easier to go faster when the rear bumper is missing all the parts that grab air....when speed holes aren't enough, cut the OE bumper to where it can never be put back to stock...

@rossbuchanan 11 ай бұрын

haha true the rear bumper is a sail! although a new one could be put back on to go back to stock, I'm not too worried about going back to stock! thanks for watching!
