It is an automatic Vinnnie. Don't know how much a 4 port will help you.

the engine might be toast. As it sits now it is still in manual drive with keys stuck in the ignition. I am going to look at a 2006 Rx8 GT black tomarrow.

Where is it? Please tell me you are going with a 6-spd this time!!

Oh, have you gone gone to remove all your aftermarket parts yet? If not, I would say you are shit outta luck. There is a serious theft racket in Mid TN off cars sitting in a tow yard.

It is at Crest Caddiliac in the back. I havent taken anyparts off it but i dont know if i can. my insurance is taking forever on everything. and the Rx8 that i looked at today, the transmission was messed up and the dealer wont even let me test drive it because of the transmission. I cant find anything to buy here.. shit sucks!

Something you need to know:
-if the insurance company does not pay you for a specific aftermarket part, you have the right to remove it from the vehicle.

Also, there are RX-8's all over the place for sale around here! How much are you willing to spend? I know of one for sale in N Alabama that is meticulously maintained, and a smoking good deal.

The one with the 'transmission' issues, is it an auto or manual? If it is a manual, I can fix it in 5 minutes.

You need to communicate man!!

Hey Zach, it looks like someone is using your "raspberry" gun that you wanted.
