Need a good 9.7 rotor if anyone has one they're willing to sell.

Need a good carb setup if anyone is looking to donate.

What's the latest on body work and why did you need a new rotor?

[FC Zach]

No need as of now.

[FC Zach]

Just gas up and go

[djmtsu]

Waiting on Xmas parts.

He needs these new wheels to finish the fenders. The rear will be almost 3" wider than stock. If I choose to go with more power later, I can stuff a full 12" tire back there.

We only had 2 9.7 rotors for the build, so I needed a third. The Goopy 10mm 17pc engine studs should be ready for shipping by Friday. The Pineapple Racing 1 piece dowel is already with Myles. I'm not sure if the irons are with mazmart for lapping any large street porting yet.

The only real unknown left at this point is if we can get a custom front counterweight to run the renesis front cover, or if I need to order a couple more parts from Pro-Maz for the 8's AC adapter, and CAS sensor adapter. CAS may not matter as much with the full standalone ECU.

I need to order the Adaptronic stand alone soonish.

man it should look good after body work,

Could you not use the rotors that came with your engine?

and i thought you was going with haltech?

Just got back from the shop we got out MTRCC shirts printed from. Anyone interested in a hat or 2? Min order of 4 and with all charges and fees they end up being about $25 each. Our logo will be stitched onto the front and looks really nice.

I could have used the stock rotors, but they're 9.1, and I wanted higher compression since it was NA, so we got a set of 9.7.

The new Adaptronic is plug and play with the RX8 including the CAN bus systems. It also supports up to a 4 rotor. So all I have to do is re-wire 2 of the RX8 AUX valves to run the 2 extra ignition channels, and I don't even have to change out the engine harness to run the 20b. It's a $4k cut out of the budget for now. I'll pretty it up a little more later. Right now, I'm more worried about either running out of money, or it not being done in time.
