Love the car, they are massively underappreciated. I have quite a few old school rotors and even hated on rx8's myself until I drove one. I have a couple now and enjoy them as Sunday drivers. Looking forward to following this race build.
LHD so hot side away from driver. I’ve raced 2 x LHD before so I’m ok with it. My brain needs to recalibrate a bit though, but I’ll get there after a few meetings. An 11 will go under the guards but not the tyre we’d like. The 280/650 slick is substantially bigger than the 265/35 that was built around, and with a 295mm section width it’s just too big. With a 18x10.5 +25 we’ll have good internal clearance and only need a slight pump to the body, which I think I could do without changing the way it looks. Doing a test fit up soon 👌
It’s actually easier, with the interior covers off, you can get around the entire engine, unlike having to lean in to an engine bay, and things like oil fillers are placed in easy to reach places. Should there be a need to remove manifolds for example, it can all be done from inside the car.

I was gonna make fun of the title alone for calling it a sports sedan until I saw it's one of the most extensively built RX-8s I have ever seen
Wow that car is so highly built. I cant believe how far back the engine is mounted. That is an amazing track car. Action Videos!
She’s a nice thing! Engine is waaaay back.
Some in-car footage coming soon 👊👊
I had an RX8 road car so I'm connected to a full blown race version.
Well this one almost looks like a road car at least 😂👍
Keen to watch your development of the car!
Thanks 👍
Stunning build. The car looked great on track.
It’s very nice! Felt pretty good first time out, lots of tweaks to be made now 👍
Love the rx8 still have one as my dayli
Stoked for you mate!
Thank you sir!
Exciting times mate. Looks great. Hoss
Thanks Hoss! 👊
Wow that’s very nice build, how much did this all cost
amazing stuff
Amazing car 👌
We agree! 💪
LHD? Can you cope with that 😄looks really good thou. You should be able to squeeze a 11" wide wheel in the stock RX8 wheel wells

Must be tough servicing the car or doing engine modifications since its all the way inside the car

Damn. If I had the money...
