  • In this multi-video mini-series, I will be preparing the Rx8 for the emissions test, starting off with the installation of the catalytic converter.
    This is part 2, so check out part 1 if you haven’t seen it already!

    Do you have the secondary air injection pump installed?

      @@MavvSpeed it really dose😂. I did a similar install. Bought my 06 for $1,500 without any emissions components. Sourced the part ( junkyard, amazon, & eBay) and got it done. While driving around to get it ready for emissions the clutch went out. So really hope to see it work out for you. Currently planning out the clutch replacement, any suggestions?

      @@Noubee I’ve heard good things about the Exedy stock clutch kit. If you’re wanting a little heavier of a feel, the stage Exedy kit seems to be a good bang for your buck. As long as you aren’t planning on going crazy with power, I’d stay away from any of the super expensive ones. These things don’t have enough torque to warrant a high-performance clutch in my opinion.
