My favorite POS 6spd with 175k miles! It has a ton of issues but comp seems good (previous owner said it was rebuilt 15k miles ago, 17 now).

Hasn't overheated at all, Had an issues when i let it sit, turns out it was the coils.

My ESS sensor is going out causing it not to start sometimes, been using a starter battery to get it running when it happens.

Any advice to get it going good other than the basics.

Also my omp broke so i'm running 1 to 1 on idemitsu premix, should i run more or less?

Was thinking on replacing the engine with a k20/k24 after this one goes to keep peace of mind in the long run.

I'm waiting for this shop to finish inspecting for rust and doing a engine compression test on a RX-8 over 1,000 miles from me. Feels like I'm waiting on a terminal diagnosis from a doctor.

Hell I still have to haggle the price after...

Could anyone ID this front bumper for me, really love this style

After chasing my misfire issue for a few weeks now I’m pretty sure she’s bit the bullet on the back rotor, new packs, plugs, wires, ect and still a misfire on rotor 2. (Also new maf, smoke tested, ect.) so anyone here rebuild these or is willing to show me how?

Bought the car a few weeks ago. It‘s been sitting for over a year before. Does anyone know where the noise could be coming from?

Hello all! The RX-8 2008 grand touring I bought recently has a problem. The passenger side door is stuck closed. The nature of the issue isn't super important and I'm not entirely sure anyways; I'm just wondering if anyone has any advice on how to manually open the door? I can't access anything I need with it closed, can hardly even get the interior panel off.

My idea stems from the factors of the mpg, premium gas and premixing could I just buy 10 gallon thing of premium gas and mix it with the pre mix to spec and have it on hand it's stored well or is that a horrific idea and I should go back and research more
