@@orca4770 that was a podi (That's the brand)

I crashed it in September. Hit a deer then hydro pole! Everything is almost swapped over to my 06 shinka. Its a much nicer build when you do it the 2nd time.still very lucky to be alive as the car flipped into a hydro pole 14ft up and hit across drivers door and windshield to roof.

@@audirx8 oh shit! Good to come out of that one. I did something similar in an Evo 4 and the airbags didn't even deploy. Any tips you would give to a first time builder? I'm planning k24a3 with rx8 5-speed. Haven't decided on turbo yet but I'm going to roll the dice and run stock internals.

@scottpatterson4974 stock internals are still good for 500whp range. I ran 609whp for abit on a stock k20. I did blow the engine up that was in this video and built a darton sleeved k24 with this k20a2 head. I will say firewall clearance is way better with the type s head because coolant port location. Also join k swap rx8 group on fb so i can send you a pm. Can help there abit

Ya was a daily for a past yr. Made 650whp But last month i hit a deer then rolled into hydro pole and wrote it off. I just picked up a mint condition 06 shinka but its a runner so gonna drive till it dies then swap it with my old stuff. Need to make a update vid with pictures and vids i made

Sorry to hear that but glad you decided to get another one Im Currently doing a ls1 twin turbo setup in mine I thought about doing the k24 not enough ppl doing them yet so kits and parts are limited or full on custom

Ya i need to make another video of it now that shes running and daily driven. Join the k swap rx8 group on Facebook and look up my name. Have posts and videos in there

I've been trying to get that dude in blue to review the new build. Hopefully he does

@@audirx8I hope he does

It was pretty easy to be honest. Just time and work and of course money. Ive changed the car a tonne since this video. If its your 1st swap you might find it difficult possibly. Ive done a handful of car builds now so found this straight forward

@@audirx8 Yeah, sweet, i Like learning and this swap seems logical to me. can pick up rx8 cheap with blown motor for like 2k aud, maybe sell parts off blown motor? i got a k24 for 1k already, just get the kit and follow instructions, i guess getting engine in place/trans the biggest part. Then ecu,wiring, turbo kit. Can use electric AC/electric PS pump so dont have to run off engine. turbo kit whats the servicability like ?

Haven't made any new videos. Drove it last summer and blew up 2 stock k20's Built a k24 over the winter and driving it now. Probably should take some videos since its running

Would love to get an update on how the car has been from a driving(weight/balance) and servicability standpoint

They are so close in terms of performance I ran 10.21@134.9 with 034 and 10.31@135.8 with ie 034 has a better launch imo that helps it get off the line. But ie was a tad stronger up top. I always trapped 1mph to 2mph higher on ie

@@audirx8 hey Matt! Other question, did u feel great improvements from the stock throttle body to a bigger one ? Does it rly help with the times?

Im making 608rwhp 458wtq now for 5 months. Blew engine up a few weeks ago and back up and driving now. Tranny outlasted a k series lol. Im building a darton sleeved weisco piston k24 now so will really find out what power the tranny can take. 800whp will be next power level

I actually just picked up 2 5spd jdm rx8 transmissions today.

I made the header,downpipe,mid section and magnaflow rear section for rx8 that i bumped up at the y at rear to 3in. Just blew rod through oil pan last night in this car. Was making 608rwhp 459tq for months. So now the k24 im building will go in

Its not really faster unless you have the iat in check. It makes more boost sooner in rpm so will give more low end power but nothing up top really. In the fall and winter the 194 is awesome with the colder air. Was always my favorite size with 57mm upper

@@audirx8 yea I live in minnesota where it gets cold cold in the winter. And I have an a6 so launching on the zf8 is slower I was hoping thr pulley would help a little bit

@@tylerspecht7553 the 194 will definitely get you out of the hole quicker

@@audirx8 shit thats all I gotta hear 😂.

@@tylerspecht7553 what tune do you have? I know ie has a pretty good launch with zf tranny

Its a k miata made for rwd k swaps. Really nice pc. And has a 3L plenum. Made 605rwhp 458tq the other day on this car like nothing. I wouldn't do s2000 intake its to small to make bigger power

I think the company changed there name to k power industries now

That filter was for the 1st start. Change filter and oil after 2hrs of run time. Had cheap filter and oil

I ditched the s2k rad and went with a full aluminum tank rad and shroud for a 1980's vw rabbit Kinda like a speedfactory tucked for honda. Probably same manufacturers. I didn't want to have rad hoses running across the pass to drivers side that would be needed using rx8 rad So s2k rad had both on drivers side but ended up being to tall. The tucked rad im using is 25in wide 12in tall 2.5in thick So its mounted on slight angle but doesn't go all the way to bottom and bolt to subframe. Its nice i can put car on hoist and pull crank pulley or whatever now since the rad isn't in the way. I really need to make a update video now that its running/driving and on the road. She runs 6.13 60-130mph right now and tuning has just really started

@@audirx8 make sense! thank for the reply! I will be doing the swap soon but going NA.

@@audirx8 Also what about the fuel pump?

@@Justin_Yu dw440 brushless and pwm brushless controller.Its a kit made for rx8 from DW In modded stock bucket with radium venturi. Works very well

@@audirx8 that's awesome! I will have a look! Thank!!

Yes! Been daily driving the car for the last 3 weeks. Had 3 tune updates then next is hit the dyno to fine tune it. Car rips rn at 25psi. Sideways 2nd,3rd,4th with 255 rear tires.will make a update vid soon, I ended up going with haltech elite 1500 ecu and haltech wb1 wideband and tuned by shawn made plug n play harness. Everything works on dash like stock and electric steering also. Very oem feel just alot more power. My camera lens is broke so have to use selfi mode rn Crap quality

@@audirx8 dude u should post a pull in this thing i gotta hear it

Install wasn't bad But ive done a handful of them in other cars. 1st one took abit. Definitely worth the effort for lower iat. Industrial es12a freon really helped get the cabin temps back down. Without it ac struggled to cool cabin. But since this video kinkad has went to a bigger heatexchanger thats more efficient

Any updates ??

@@canyouhearmatt5529 its almost complete now. Ended up changing alot of things around since this video. Onlu thing left is to run battery cables from trunk to engine bay and install new fuel pump.

About $4000 less. The cost is adapter kit,ecu. I think someone can do this swap for 6k ish not including the car if it was a NA build

@@audirx8 wow!! Not bad considering a Reman engine cost like 4k

@@Carlos.Rivera thats a 1k used engine cost in my estimate Not a rebuilt engine

@@audirx8 you know anyone in Houston that can do this?

I am in several fb rx8 groups. Ontario rx8 group,engine swap rx8 groups. I can certainly put a list together at some point. Im also going to offer the service to do the actual swap start to finish for local people close to Niagara. I did the 1st start the other day and started right up! Everything functions like it should and electric steering works. I ended up going with haltech elite 1500 ecu and haltech wb1 wideband. Its still a canbus ecu but has much better features for tuning then adaptronic has

I did it myself

Where are you located? Im going to offer these swaps turn key ready. I can source everything or the person can buy and drop everything off. Then ill fab everything else

@@audirx8 If you're making a turn key solution, I'm buying. I'm from NJ. The Collins kit looks great, but no provisions for wiring, coolant lines, etc. I saw a video that someone used an S2000 header that bolted up. Would be nice to have 2 options (NA and turbo).

@@audirx8 Can you also ship a kit for us out of state

@@audirx8 would you be in Texas by chance?

Im going to make a update with Wiring soon. Then its done! Haven't had time in the last few weeks to do anything on the car with work being busy

What ecu are you going to run? You should need to re wire the gages if running adaptronic ecu or haltech elite 1500. I switched my ecu to the haltech elite. Ill try to put the link up here for the wiring though

@@audirx8 I have kpro on it. I’ve just got the motor in the car so far and everything mocked up. About to pull everything out for powder coating and paint. Trying my best to make this car act and work like it come from the factory. Working air con, power steering, gauges ect

@@Asimo380 your aware that you need to keep stock ecu to run the dash? Keep that ecu and oil pressure,coolant temp,and crank trigger wheel from rx8 and stock rx8 throttle body all on stock rx8 ecu.then k pro runs the actual engine

@@audirx8 yes I’m aware of that. I’ve did a ton of research on doing this swap. Just haven’t found the actual wiring diagram I need to pin the engine ecu into the oem unit.

I haven't been But will be starting again soon. Id say within 2 months i will be

@@audirx8 what do you charge?

@@user-et7qw2st2w 800usd includes return shipping for v2 port and polish and 1100 with return shipping for race port and polish.

@@audirx8 how is the best way to get ahold of you?

@@user-et7qw2st2w Facebook messenger

Ecs luff something. Its carbon lid semi open airbox. Then the apr ultracharger carbon pipe

@@audirx8 oh okay nice, another question I have is in another one of your videos you said you had an eventuri intake ? How? Also, is it still possible to get the 194mm crank pulley?

700-750whp

@@audirx8 with this amount of power,you will need the dct pretty soon if not immediately lol. the stock 8 trans&diff won't hold that much power

@@koawang0609 there is a couple modifications that can be done to this transmission that will let it hold around 600tq Been done for a few yrs in Europe now. Change a couple hollow dowel pins to solid and a couple c clips And fixes the reason why these fail under to much tq. Theres a diy video om here from a European guy doing the mod to a miata transmission

I dont do it anymore. Been over a yr since i stopped. Sorry man

@@audirx8 You still have car?

@@stevegivelas9769 no i sold it to a guy in Toronto. I do have another s4 but manual

@@audirx8 You going for manual record?

@@audirx8 It’s a b8.5?

10.72@129 with interior was my best. I did so many different port jobs on my chargers for the yrs so hard to say exactly how much i picked up

@@audirx8 I wanna try to port the spare blower I have, and I know your the best but not sure if your still porting or not, anyway you could send pics of the best port you think you have done would pay you just for the info if not that’s cool

No i have record with 034 Just haven't posted that video. Guess i should do that at some point

@@audirx8 lets see it 🤟🏻
