    So it would be better to just not have one? Entirely? And thus is how to bypass that? Also your funny as hell yo the cross member dilemma was funny as hell to me. Sorry i have my 2008 toyta rav 4 pulled apart on one side and the other im stuck at the hub bearing the fucker WILL NOT MOVE im 230lbs and been a roofer my whole life and grew up on a farm so im really strong for a woman. I even tried useing a jack on a breaker bar and jacked that bitch up and it wont budge. Idk wtf to do at this point. Ive been soaking and hoping it breaks it free but sfter 6 hours giving ir my all i had to just stop... before i break something either on me or my truck. 😢

      lol thanks for watching my videos, and thinking that I am funny, I am trying to be funny in my videos and naturally I like to make people laugh plus have a laugh at myself, about your Toyota rav 4, are you trying to remove a bearing nut? I am surprised how stuck it is, they should not be this stuck, but what ever it is try using an impact like Hercules Ultra it’s 1500lbs break away, also you might need to try heat, good luck

      I did FINALLY GRT THAT BITCH OFF. Just the front 30mm 12 Pont bolt on the front of the hub took 10 minutes with a serious blow torch and then i took a candle and melted it on there and as it cooled it sucked in the wax and a 5 ft breaker bar and thet thing was off. Now. The back bolts are so seized and the cv axel boot is directly in the back of these nuts on the back of the hub so I can barky fit any tools in there and to grt a good grip on those bolts? It's not happening. I might have to take off the whole control arm. At this point I'm just so tired 😫 might be less time and less work to do so. And thank you so much for replying to me!! Most people never get back to me or if they do its a month after I commented and by then I either give up or got it done 😅 anyways... yeah all of this is just after I JUST put in a new valve body litterally 3 days before this hub seized and my truck can't move now it's THAT SEIZED and it gave ZERO WARNING. Zero. No break grinding, no smells, no sounds, nothing I did have it off and replaced the cv axel about a year ago but I had got a job and barky had time to shower let alone work on my truck so I took it to this place down the street where I could walk to and from to drop off my truck and they were supposed to replace both the front hub bearing and I know now thet they were never even touched. I'm not going to let anyone ever touch any of my vehicles again. I always do my own work but having no time just really got me stuck. Lesson learned I guess 😔 thanks again and also if you have any tips at all I judt subed and I'll turn on my notifications for you. Nobody else got that 😊

      Possibly its usually the connectors especially if you added Coolant and the overflow(Which is aimed towards it for some retarded reason) Covered and messed up the connectors. You can clean the connectors and hope it works if not hope to find a new one for 100$ hopefully.

      Yes, you’re right but technically my car is 20 years old now basically a classic so yes there’s lots of things that it needs to make it good again it’s not it’s not a brand new car but Rotary experience it’s special. It’s not like they sell new rotary cars anymore, so I think if you love Rotary engines done it’s worth all the headaches that come with them

      Mine is the S2 it's not as problematic. And issues ice got is mainly cos it's 15 years of age. It hasn't even ever flooded on me and that's shutting it off whist cold then starting it back up again. U can't drive them like a granny all the time. They're meant to be driven not crawled. Basic maintenance on them is no difference than any other just you need to do it a little bit more often. Plus I've seen Audis far worse to work on. TT for example you need to remove the wishbones etc so you can replace the downpipe.

      I can’t remember, but what I will tell you is that if it’s flooded, you need to flood it and then it will start sometimes it’s best to just let it sit a little bit too. It helps but only if you know your vehicle starts, but if it hasn’t started in a while, and you just don’t know history about this vehicle. It might be another issue.

  • @Clinton-nt6qp
    @Clinton-nt6qp Месяц назад

    From what I have read on the forums the stock fans are pretty full proof, they were designed to maximize cooling due to the temperatures from the rotory engine. I made another post on an older video you had. If you want better cooling replace you oil cooler thermostats each cooler has them on the bottom edge. Rotary performance sells them and a few other companies.

    • @mazdarx8diy38
      @mazdarx8diy38 28 дней назад

      I also think Mazda knew what they were doing when designing those fans after all the reputation is on the line, but also these cars were not sold as performance cars and mainly for the streets so depending on the climate where you live, it might be hotter or cooler like where I live. It’s mid range. I’m in South Carolina. Summers are hot while winters are nice, there’s no snow here and it’s not freezing weather but here’s the thing the stock fans work well with stock radiator. If you want to install racing radiator you will need to find a way to make those stock fans work, but I decided to use aluminum raider with aluminum shroud to keep the aftermarket fans, the aluminum shroud that I’m using specifically designed for those fans, you will not be able to install actual Mazda fans but of course anything is possible with some modification, but it won’t be an easy task, also these fans that I’m installing are lower profile and based on what I’ve seen, they do some good cooking. I don’t know how they compare, but they’re not that bad either.

    Sorry i was late to this party, yes your right oil will get into the intake from the vented line at the oil filler neck. As mentioned you have to get a catch can and then cap off the end on the rubber intake boot. I level my oil halfway on the dipstick between High and low mark to prevent any overflow, if I don’t it blows right out my small filter from the catch tank. Usually it’s 3.5 to 4 quarts of oil if you drop it when it’s good and hot. Preventive modifications to focus on with your Rx8. Regularly flushing coolant, trans/diff oil 75/90 synthetic. Upgraded LS coils, ngk plugs only As far as your intake goes getting a drop in K&N air filter is the best way to go for a smoother idle. Even with aftermarket intakes it does effect idle at stop lights . Depending on your wallet… for longevity reasons. Aluminum radiator, delete your cat (use spark plug Fowler (drilled out to fool ecu) mine comes and goes. Oil metering pump lines should be checked and updated if leaking, you can make your own I’ll try to find the site I purchased everything from. Sohn adapter works nice for two reasons, fresh oil! you can always see when you need to add oil and not have to check your oil from the pan. If you live in a hot climate or only drive the car in the summer you can look into replacing your oil thermostats that are on each oil cooler. The engines operative systems were meant to run warmer for emissions purposes. If your in 85-100 degree weather your stock setup will be at or around 220-230 water temps and that’s due to the oil being so hot while the thermostats don’t open until at or around those temps. HKS makes updated ones that also fit Mitsubishi lancers they open at 165-175, since changing them my car will run at 195-200 during the hottest days in the summer. Beware it will run very cool if it is cold out 150-160 water temps with colder weather 50-60’s as always make sure she’s warm before you get pedal happy. I run versatune ecu flashing software it’s great for turning your idle down and oil metering monitoring.

This will not only help me but many other owners I like. My Mazda RX 8 project is ongoing. I agree with everything you’re saying currently I’m making videos of me doing some of those things that you have mentioned., every day I try to do something weather permitting, just today I have replaced my exhaust manifold with a header, tomorrow I plan to install my mid pipe, one of my motor mounts fell apart, I would not known that if it wasn’t for me the motor amount and discovering that it’s broken, I just bought couple more Motor mounts, this car will be driven in South Carolina. We have good weather here. It doesn’t get really too cold or too hot., I am installing an aluminum racing radiator, also I will be installing an oil cooler, and and AEM cold air intake I deleted my AC system because I am turning this car into a track car, this silver Mazda say it’s a six speed manual transmission, I also have a green one which is an automatic, mainly my automatic will be kept stock it does have a mid pipe, in South Carolina, there’s no state inspection, but both of these cars will be track cars, and when I say, I will keep the car stock it will still get necessary upgrades to make the car reliable, just the car that I make as my track car I will put a roll cage in it racing seats and much much more. Also will make it lose some weight. I plan to have lots of fun with it. I just turned 43 years old but trying to remember my 20s and that’s what I wanted to do just did not have the money to now it’s time to get back to my roots.

      Sure if you buy them for 1000 expect to spend another 5 to 7000 to get it where you want it to be

    If you take off the tap of oil you can take off the intake and work more easy

    I didn't know a month was a lot for an rx8. mine has been sitting for a lot of months and it was running well, i thought. then i had o2 sensor code and misfire in rear rotor code and i changed plugs coils and o2 sensors and that seemed to help but then when i was test driving it last, it went into like a limp mode type thing where the rpm needle was revving at a consistent rate and i lost all response from the gas pedal. the 2 new codes i have now are u0155 and p2109. is this an easy issue? also when i try to start it now, it just cranks.

    Did not work for me. Did you reduce foot out on accelerator slowly at end of 7th sequence if 10 seconds? My starter still continues to turn endlessly on the key, regardless of 7 or 8 9r 9 sequences. Thanks.

    Black Holo Racing Global upgrade will last about the rest of its lifetime without failure or needing replacing. Does it loose power at low RPMs and turn off or just misfires and nothing else?

    On a left hand drive car there is a screw holding the radio in, I think on a left hand drive the screw in on the right side.You have to remove a plate under the steering column.

    This was so hard to watch!!!! Why would you not even think to put a socket and breaker bar on the alternator to break it free?!?! No amount of lube will penetrate into those alternator sealed bearings!!! That belt may drive other things like the oil pump and water pump!! Who in their right mind would even try to start a vehicle knowing that the alternator is seized up to the point of shredding the belt and then run it like that and wonder why it doesn't idle with no alternator and possibly no water pump turning?!?! You're not all there and it's a wonder that you didn't cause a fire or explosion or something!!!!

      Thank you so much for watching. I really appreciate your comment. I’m actually trying to figure that out myself and I will be making a future video. However, I did make a similar video for the steering wheel. Take a look at it. It’s one of my earlier videos it has some good advice where to look, and sometimes you could actually fix the issue for you. It did not help me, however, but most people solve their issue by doing those things.
