      Not much buddy, Im happy to help your brother out anytime he needs it. He needs some 3.73's and that will wake that car up for sure!!!!!!

      I think he's got 3.27's stock? Maybe 4.10s would be better?

        The miata is as pure of a sports car as it gets...

        Your car would be amazing with an LSX swap. Has anyone done that on an RX8 yet?

          where do these guys come from....

          why would it be amazing with an LSX swap?

                  Look up the definition of a sports car... Don't take my word for it. It's small, 2 door, 2 seater, RWD, light and tossible.

                    GTO swap was a smart decision. If i remember right, the dude picked up both vehicles with the intentions of doing that. Cheap fix i guess kinda.

                            It must be credible thought. Look at the what makes a sportscar a sportscar section at the bottom.

                                  Ya I'm happy the MS3 is coming out. It can only mean more engine parts for me. CPE is working on a new turbo, the stock one is way undersized. It starts pulling boost at 4500 rpm down to 5 psi at redline. at least it doesn't have a hood scoop like the legacy. The top mount suxs too, but I want a downpipe but don't want to void the warranty. An extra 30whp would be nice.:icon_thumright:

And get rid of the 3rd gear studder (didn't have it a the track tho), caused by the reflash that neutered my car, worst decision on my part I was told I'd get top end. We won't get started on my car loosing 80 whp from 5500 to 6700 rpm! If Mazda didn't have the throttle body closing at 5000 rpm this car would have been over 300hp factory. 4 psi at redline is a joke!

                                  Have you guys done any TSB's on the 2006 clutches?

                                  Hallorann: Nothin'! There ain't nothin' in Fargostreet. But you ain't got no business goin' in there anyway. So stay out! You understand? Stay out!

                                          You didn't think this thread was done yet right?

                                          What's your point? The TSB clutch has been in for 2 years do you want an update? The Rear diff never broke again (already covered in this thread btw). The low top end boost issue is resolved...

                                          You want me to visit legacy forums and pull up every issue they've had?
