Welcome mate. A few mods on that 1.8T will see your RX8 working for it's money!
BTW, do those engines rev to something mad like 10K?
Redline at 9.5K and limiter "gently" cuts in at 10K. At about 9K you get a high pitch "beep" to change up, if you don't want the engine to be displayed naked on the road.[|)]

RX-8 Is a surperb piece of machinery but drinkd the oil a bit to much for my liking but the power band is superb from 1 all the way to 10 on the 232 ps and yes it is a 1.3 renesis engine enjoy the golf and enjoy the rx-8
I've now done nearly 10K miles in my 8 (1 year and 2 weeks old) and it has used 6 litres of oil in that time. Now factor in the cost of oil (?5/litre) and thats ?30 worth for the year. I normally oil change (regardless of which car I own) every 6 months which costs about ?30 anyway so I've not had to do that on the 8 as its replenised as stated above. Don't think thats too bad.
BTW, I took some pics today (of both) so hope to post up via a link tomorrow.
Regards, AnilS.
