It'd be nice if the entire damn thing just lit on fire and I could collect the insurance money. I've had nothin but problems wit it. FYI... these cars can't take hitting a bunny rabbit at 95mph either. Broke my front ground effect.. Some zip-ties did a half-ass job of fixing it though

wont holding it to the floor flood the car?

i didn't flood it, I didn't even touch the damn thing, it just wouldn't start at all. The only way I got it started was after about 20 mins of turning it over, was spray starter fluid in behind the air-filter (not the brightest thing to do, i know. I have no patience what-so-ever) and gave it a...

RX-8 wont start! Turns over, just took forever to start. I literally had to crank it over for a half hour straight. Then when it started, fumes everywhere! Blue/White smoke. Now seems to be fine. I had it at the dealership for a rough idle a few months ago, and like usual the bulls*** dealer...

Hesitation gone. I think the dealership I bought it from had the wrong oil in it. I put the recommended oil in, and now its fine. Still need to change the airfilter. But the hesitation has almost stopped

boostn8, what are your 1/4 ET's wit the GReddy kit? I'm just gettin ready to buy one as soon as I sell some other items.

Also, i noticed there was a post on the forum about a RX-8 only doing 13.5 in the quarter wit about 400hp at the crank. So Please tell me I'd at least be running low 14's with just the bolt-on. Cuz for $5000 I could probobly gut the car and throw a small-block in it. (just junkyard parts...

yeah, I'm nowhere near Tampa, FL. I'm up by Chicago actually. And the car already has a GReddy Catback exhaust on it. The only other thing I was thinking of doing was taking the cat completely off, cuz I live in a remotely rural area. about 50k-75k for population with the surrounding towns in...

Just noticed yesterday that it hesitates in every gear at high RPM's, just more noticable in the higher gears. Going to look at the air filter and maybe change the plugs. Only 23,000 miles on it though.... Confused.

Nope, no code or anything. And yes, it feels like it pulls harder when you let off the gas a lil.

So all together, the GReddy Turbo kit, with the X-interceptor managment, whats the cheapest I could get all this for. I have alot of friends that are really good with car's and such, so I doubt it would cost me anything to install, as long as everythings a bolt on.

No, it doesn't at high RPM, just moderatley high RPM's but the high MPH seems to be the main factor. And it only does it at WOT. 1st and 2nd gear at WOT are fine. But you get to third or higher and mash the throttle once it gets to about 85-90mph it almost jerks a little.

sorry, forgot to mention it. yeah I have the 6-spd. I found another turbo kit online today, but I dont remember the website or who makes it. All I remember is that it wasn't made by GReddy, and it said it was a STAGE II Turbo Kit, and was between $6 and $8k if I remember right... Didn't give...

Does anyone on here have the GReddy kit installed? Just wondering if its worth the $$$, and I figure someone who owns one would know. Also, how much HP gain can you get out of the 1.3L with just bolt-on's N/A?

Anyone here get a hesitation around 90mph+ at Wide Open Throttle? My Car almost jerks at high speeds when my foots in it. Doesn't matter what gear either. Is this the computer doing it? I lay off the gas and the mph still climbs, but stops hesitating at about half or 3/4 throttle. (New to the...

Are they sold yet? I'm very interested! Just bought my RX-8, and the rubber is toasted on it. Post some pics of the tires if you still have them!
