AP for the RX8 still allows for readiness checks to be set normally. I reset my stuff all the time. I have all the cat codes turned off and pass emissions every time. So none of that concerns me having dealt with the bridge port for years.

I think the RX8 only set the not ready if it receives a mill code, but since it can't throw it, it always sets ready. My only not set check is the air pump. I may have a circuit made to fool that one.

You're not the first person I've heard about that from with the speed3.

Some people might be curious about the rest of the car...

LEG Motorsports RX8-Vision carbon front bumper
Vertex Lang sides and rear bumper
Panspeed wide front and rear fenders
AutoExe SE03 hood
AutoExe SE02 duktail trunk
RE Amemiya carbon tail lights and AD Pro fender mirrors

Probably a couple more things before it goes to paint (after the engine).
