As much as i love this build and admire the drivers enthusiasm, this video could've been shortened up to about 4-5 minutes, have more scenic shots than just a parking lot. We all start somewhere though, keep it up and keep on improving!
If I was asked why I didn't get a Camaro....I've owned a lot of iroc type Camaros (82-92) and I was raised up around Chevys....but I never thought about getting an rx8 until I seen one for sale in my price range. The handling from those types of Camaros to an rx8 is like night and day. Beat handling car I've ever driven. Well, 1 1/2 - 2 yrs later, the engine blew and I figured instead of putting in another rotary engine, I'd put in what I'm more familiar with and something that'll last for a lot more mileage. So Im in the middle of swapping mine at the moment. The l33 and wiring, the Ford 8.8 with clutch packs installed along with 1000hp+ rated axles and the fuel pump. Just need to do trans, driveshaft and exhaust then it's onto a tune :)
All depends on how much you get the right engine and transmission for. His was probably anywhere between 5 and 7000 unless he wasted more money than he should have.
I mean, yeah, people don't like the Renesis, but in my personal opinion, I would have preferred to keep it, or swap it for another rotary engine. 13B-REW or 20B would've been amazing. In less orthodox terms, fuck ls swaps😂
Heyyy That's My Carrrr😱
Thank you guys so much.! LS-Powaa
+Rare Imaging Thanks for letting us film it! Still have it?
Shooting Cars No problem, and Yes I do still have it, still running great and all.! Best build I've had so far!
How much the engine swap cost ?
sameer azimi I did it myself with the help of a buddy of mine so what I spent wouldn't be accurate to someone that pays a shop to do it.
Rare Imaging did you fabricate your motor and trans mounts? Or did you buy a kit?
Hey do you have wiring specs for Rx 8 ECU? Please let me know

Do gauges work and is it eligible to be registered
Where is your buddy located? I have an RX8 tuner up pretty well but want to LSI swap mine too
Shame on you, that won't be an RX car anymore 😢

Dude is so confused. I'd bet anything all the WE he is talking is actually his boy friend doing all the work.
Gorgeous art work tbh I'm looking in to that a 5.7 in a RX 8!!!😍🤤
Doooo it!
How much does it cost to do the swap in rx8
500 maybe

@@JuanHernandez-ub3ez you meant to add another 0 right?
As a fabricator yes 500 but for someone paying maybe yea numbers will vary
Around 10k doing it right
BAD CAR! show it off here in Orlando
She’s a beauty!
Drift?
Shit I’m puting an lt4 in mine
I need Motor MOUNTS MY FRIEND
Can he swap mines
Yeah just take the best rx chassis and completely fuck the balancing by putting a v8 in it. Sure.
it's still 51/49 with the driver lol, I'm putting the whole C6 transmission and torque tube in one to fix that some more
Nice interview video👍🏽
You should check out my video on this exact car. Gotta love it!
