waynenoonan1234 They're too big to fully utilize the performance + the style is associated with something more about show than go. People can build their cars however they want, it's all personal taste.
TheAuzzieSniper I've heard the term 'wog spec' thrown around when talking about the standard Simmons gold colour, but these take that to a different level! These are the most wog spec i've ever seen!!! LOL!
I wonder how much cheaper this would be compared to that 20b swap. Still using stock gearbox, and I'm assuming the 13b is much more readily available than the 20b. Anybody know how much this costed the owner?
The wheels are cleaner than the headlights?! Clearly no one is a fan of the rims, but I appreciate the engine swap to better capitalize on the RX-8 platform.
Michael Ellestad Yes, but it was designed for NA HP/Kw. I've actually heard of using nitrous (which I wouldn't try), but for the most part, simple bolt-on upgrades usually work the best. Turbos can be done, but they can have...consequences.
uh ma man, wut ecu he runnin' that nd which way with what pulleys nd which mounts? it look oe, but doesnt swapping those lose some of the other equipment?
I thought sex spec died 15 years ago! The RX-8 is one of the best handling sports cars ever, why would anyone ruin it with all that unsprung weight and rotational mass?
hey guys of fullboost. i have a question for yall. i own a 2013 chevy sonic and would love to one day in the next few years swap a 13b turbo into it and make it rwd. id like it to be decently fast but not a full fledged racecar. how expensive do you think it would be to do the full 13bturbo/rwd swap? and how hard would it be?
you can get a 13b and trans online for as little as 1500 bucks the cost is going to be the custom wiring harness and labor to make all of the custom brackets and mounts, I'm no pro but if I had to guess probably 4500 to 6 thousand, if the car was already rear drive it wouldn't be as much
Those wheels make me want to gouge my eyes out with a spoon.. Though they probably match the owners "fulleh sik" gold chain necklace. Nice power though I guess..
Leo K I think because it's easier to make this much power on a this specific 13b. I'm not 100% sure but the Renesis is difficult to turbo, so if you're gonna go through all that trouble might as well built the car with a "stronger" 13b
Leo K In short, the factory RX-8 Renesis engine is a bit of a 'nugget' in comparison, however we will show you a turbo Renesis engine shortly and what can be done to that one. Cheers
Have you seen the porn that Mazda released in 2013 of there range extender Mazda the new engine was like a mirror inside so new 😂 people will buy it just for the engine to take out of it
I prefer the black one with 20b,standard looks with huge power
dont know why people are hating on the rims think they look good against the blue. great vid Fullboost

waynenoonan1234 They look good ok, but they are useless. And maybe with better rims & tires it can beat some cars on a drag race.
+waynenoonan1234 anything over 17 starts becoming useless and heavy
i love the rims! maybe they look better under a black car or whatever but on their own they are very nice
People complaining about the wheels when it's not even that bad
They look alright on the RX-8
Yes, the wheels are not really my style, but who cares? All I care about is seeing an rx-8 lay down 450hp
Love those rims! Awesome power to
those rims are disgusting but its a rotary so who cares

Daniel Brealey some people call it lebspec
***** Hahahahaha!!! LOL! I'm from Melbourne, so I know exactly what you mean...
Those rims r fuckin tight
22inch rims on car like that is some ricer type of crap.... i dont mind the performance but if he want numbers... the rims gotta go
22"'s on an rx8...like they don't get enough hate. At least that big single RE gives it some street cred
If Lebanon was a car, it will look and sound like this.

Which is the better engine? RE or REW? In terms of tunability, strength of components, design, etc.?
I understand it's a show car but the wheels are bold statement.
As for the rest of the car, I like.
Hey guys, love this build! Thinking about putting a twin-scroll on mine. Any feedback?
😍so clean
Clean
From what I am reading the Renesis engine must be under performing I wonder if its possible to make the Renesis more powerful
Michael Ellestad Yes, but it was designed for NA HP/Kw. I've actually heard of using nitrous (which I wouldn't try), but for the most part, simple bolt-on upgrades usually work the best. Turbos can be done, but they can have...consequences.
very nice, well done
If they went with oem wheels to the run the numbers would've been a bit higher
nice very nice!!!!
uh ma man, wut ecu he runnin' that nd which way with what pulleys nd which mounts? it look oe, but doesnt swapping those lose some of the other equipment?
Drive in with a series 2 GT & drive out with this set up. What’s a rough guide on price?
Please put a proper wheels. ZE40 might work

I thought you couldn't put older engines into later chassis legally?
Not a bad chook cooker I must say!
Any burnout videos to come?
Those rims. Typical Aussie style lol.
those wheels 2out of 10

Simon you da man luv ya mate ( billy aka feathers ) l,ll bring you some milk next time l come around
Isn't the rim too big?!?!
Those wheels make me want to gouge my eyes out with a spoon.. Though they probably match the owners "fulleh sik" gold chain necklace. Nice power though I guess..
Stock rx8 5speed or 6speed?
mine is 6 speed manual
mine is 6 speed manual
It is a stupid question but how do u figure kilometer to MPH
Steve Mac Google
Steve Mac 1 mile is 1.6 km xD so times the KPH by 1.6
Thanks
xkblxcripple thanks
xkblxcripple You mean KPH divide by 1.6
Whoa, what a cool guy! He can afford to waste money on useless, ugly, overpriced wheels. Wish i was as cool as him.
Why do they do an engine swap to an older engine instead of turbocharging the Renesis engine?
Leo K I think because it's easier to make this much power on a this specific 13b. I'm not 100% sure but the Renesis is difficult to turbo, so if you're gonna go through all that trouble might as well built the car with a "stronger" 13b
Leo K The Renesis doesn't respond to turbocharging as well.

22 inch rims on an rx8 is nasty af please put 18s atleast
very bad wheels for this car
250ft. Lbs x 9000rpm ÷ 5252 = 430hp *]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH
Ugliest wheels ever
Boring next please rotary are rubbish ,.rx8 with lebo mobs on it sad as shitbox
