Who did the body work and paint ???

That is an AWESOME job.

I just turned by Nissan mini truck into a RED FD for my other son.... It was completed by some little munchkins with pixie dust...:lol::lol::lol::lol:

awesome!!! who did the swap? more details!!

:scratch: Did the body kit turn your FD into an RX-8? :dunno:

Let's see some pictures of the new paint job on the FD! I'm contemplating going a pearl white, but I am keeping to paint code/name on the d/l :)

Hahaha

I bought her from the original owner that had Speed1 do the swap..... they get all the credit!
Final result is 363@16psi and 423@20psi
This is how a RX-8 should of been built!
It's a true joy to drive!

Dont forget.....
The A/C now works!

^SO TRUE!

How did I ever go without it in Florida....

i was wondering that, ive seen that in NY and i looked at your info and said florida so i was like !?!?! but niceeee, speed1 is my mechanic, dave is awesome.

what turbo? and what are those things by the throttle body? is it for coilovers?

If I was a mod I'd ban you for posting an rx8 in this section.

My bad!
 

^Well $hit! I don't wanna be banned!!
Didn't mean offend anyone!

Mods, please feel free to move to the correct section

Thanks!

Is that white a OEM color?

You got TAKEN!!!! :)

Yes, its a OEM mazda color... called Whitewater pearl.

did you happen to get that over on RX8club? Guy was selling his just like it.

this thread would be funny if you had cool wheels.

Looks good man! I bet it's nice having an updated interior.

Nice Steven,

And the kids fit too!

Haha, you caught us all off gaurd.

Ive seen this car in person a few times with the original owner. It took a while for them to get everything right but from the last time i saw it ( a year ago) it was in great shape.

im confused still! topic said you singleturboed, kitted and painted your FD... and i see an RX8...?

423@20psi seems........ Low. Should put it back in the FD it'd make more power.

Thanks Mr. Barry
Yes Sir! She's in outstanding condition... Runs like a stock RX-8 just has twice the power :)
I was joking! Though I've been brief that this is the wrong section and asked the mods to move it to the correct one.
Small hotside... but she runs great with room for the kids.... No Thanks!

that was amusing
we bought a silver 2010 RX8 for my honey last winter

Make the kids walk drive an FD! Lol j/k. 8s are sexy but I still think FDs are sexyerest.

My son now owns his old FD....:egrin:

It had JDM back seats BUT the RX8 is a bit more comfortable for the kids than an FD with a backseat....:nod:


and YES.... FD's are sexyerest than an RX8.....

L8R

nice rx8. I still think your old FD is better tho.
