Hey guys, Admin of an RX-8 Facebook page, owner of a 13B-REW swapped 05 here. Cooling mods are your friend when it comes to reliability. You can change the oil cooler thermostats for cooler models, the rad and fans can be upgraded, and those oil cooler lines you mentioned can be replaced with some nice stainless kits to avoid a massive oil leak all of a sudden (they rot out all the time).
This series lowkey feels like the Fitment Industries series of Donut Media's "Money Pit" and I love it 😂 [Edit]: The end result is amazing 😳👌🏻 Maybe a new set of wheels and tires for next episode
the content itself is great, but the editing, music, and filmmaking is outstanding and tells a great story! really looking forward to how this channel progresses in the future
That greatest explanation of most projects I use YT to reference 2:02 - 2:47 and it's ironic that Dakota's in a car driving while explaining because that's exactly where I spend most of my time, driving to the parts stores.
Lol I am so excited to see this work and it's not my car lol I am happy that I get to see how it works and how to install it in a way I appreciate it! Keep up the work!
- 👍👍 I never had any good luck with air suspension. Expensive and bags always leak/break. Unless these new modern ones use newer technology? Great video. Thank you.
could you guys name everything you used for the installation and where you bought it? I drive a 2006 Mazda Rx8 and want to put it on air suspension too
Here is the exact kit he used!🤙 - www.fitmentindustries.com/store/suspension/53440/air-suspension-kits-air-lift-performance-3p-kit-with-d2-racing-struts?year=2006&make=Mazda&model=RX-8&trim=Base
You're gonna really want to install a coolant temp sensor and gauge too. Normal temps should be around 200 F, if it gets up to 210 or more you can start damaging the engine. Oh, and the aftermarket thermostat is a great idea too.
Would you ever make a Mazda RX-8 your project car?

Just Bought an Rx8 3 days ago. Lets get it.
No way! What year?
Just got my rx-8 a few months ago and now I’m definitely gonna buy this kit once I finish my swap 🤘🏻🤘🏻
How are you enjoying the car so far?
Maybe
I've realized that any video with Dakota is funny as heck
how i wanna be when i’m a dad, stance dad😎
@@rivrflow stance dad 😎😎😎
Hey I read these exact comments a year ago. Isn't that weird?

Accidentally early af, just in time for lunch... now if I only had some doritos.
I'm on the correct path kinda lmao Panda Express is a close call 🤣🤣
You know you’re a Midwesterner when you got the hoodie on with the khaki shorts
No joke, it's been really nice for the past few days.
@@Angrynood it snowed today in iowa 🥲
@@bananasplease666 I got hit with a sprinkle of that stuff in Minneapolis. Nothing too bad today. Just overcast.

Day 27 of asking Fitment Industries to bring back Wheel History.
History of sevenk/sk forged
Howbout forgotten history of ( )
Dakota and gels goat af 🐐
All this time I thought these two guys were one dude. I'm liking the direction of the channel very nice.
Lol I am so excited to see this work and it's not my car lol I am happy that I get to see how it works and how to install it in a way I appreciate it! Keep up the work!
“So you want a 2nd gen Lexus IS”
Damn it looks so good on air
alex and dekota is the funniest guys
there is no changing my mind
Im watching you tube for first time on my big tv and i gota say im impressed!!! Gels and dakota look so huge!!! Cant wait to see alex tomorow!
Yellow GTI so clean
"ho-ly jesus. WHAT IS THAT?" had me rolling
The rx-8 is so underrated. John's rx-8 from angel motorsport is nice running tc4 18x11.
I like this build series.👌
this series is criminally underrated! Love it!
I love these vlog type videos way better than the fitment industries warehouse background
Props to the camera man and/or editor for those airing out shots and the end with the sound. Hnnnng it sounded so satisfying
Your editor and video guy is great
The production quality on these vids is wild. Really well done guys!
Air suspension on an rx8. Genius! Atleast somethings always going to have compression
Nice to get a good look at MK4 finally.
Clear or smoked side markers really clean up the car in my eyes
Looks CleaN ☑️💯🎴
I’m poor so I won’t be bagging my 8 any time soon BUT WHEN I DO!!!!!! This will be very helpful thank you!
Nice touch with the D2 Racing struts! I have the RS coils on my Legacy & I love them. Good luck on the build!
Santa Monica’s ftw!
I love this series, I can't wait for the next episode!
Your aunt called! She said she wants her car back!
Dakota = Ole Daddy
I'm crying 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂

I think Gels should put like a bright white colored wheels on it, to counter-match the black

ALRIIIIGHT EPS 3!!!
🔥
I love 💕 these videos
That’s soooooooo dope
*NOICE*
That Bora on Santa Monicas tho 👀
Dakota is the friend who asks to borrow a lawn mower and never returns it. I need to mow my yard bruh.
😂😅 C'mon
Yooooo Dakota!!!! Love this dude😂
Imagine how legendary the rx8 would've been if Ford hadn't been in charge of the engine
Accurate af with the videos one doesn't tell you shit and the other is what you need but can't hear or see shit 🤣
The midwest was strong in this one
Can't wait to see this thing around town shoutout the fox valley 🙌

Congrats 👏🏽 looks good
what are the wheels on the "easymac" VW? are those the same wheels on the wall at the showroom?
Yes! They are the Heritage Stuttgart’s
Ya air suspension 🤙🤙
nc miata has the exact suspensions as the rx8 and i done it myself too.... it was a pain
Make dakota vlog him working on his cars please
these guys are the Hardley Boys from southpark
I have the same setup but with bass on your tank location
So you want a lotus exige s. Day 190.
This was the most serious Dakota has ever been. Lol
Impressive 🧐
Plz have the Vargas brothers do the engine, they'll do it right the 1st time lol
The imola mk4 is so fucking clean.
can you go into more detail on how you do it?
How does a setup like that handle winter weather? This would be neat on my '19 Mazda 3 awd 🇨🇦
Check which recalls are applicable to your rx8. I know they had one for control arms rusting and for the fuel pump
I hope you guys unbinded the bushings, it might go lower if you tightened the bolts with load in the suspension not when its just hanging.
Is that a Greddy Exhaust system I see. Only the Best for the Rx8☑️🎴
You bet!
Don't know if he said this already but could you tell us where the cars from and how rusted the car is (6:18)
He sounded like Bubbles when he was talking to his dog
Yo my man dakota when we zooming the water drinking contest
I wonder if it's aired up does it drive normally like on the stock height so it won't hit speed bumps and stuff
I might be interested in putting my car on D2 air springs. You mind driving it and giving a ride perspective ?
RX-8 build/Moneypit crossover???
👀
Would love to get my upcoming 2021 mazda 3 on bags. But here in Switzerland it can cost about 10k.
man i love yall very fucking good content
get that hot boi lowered to the earth sheeeeeeeesh man
LOL he isn’t low enuff to scrape and I think I could fit my lug between the wheel gap😂😂 gotta love these guys 😂😂
Good Quality Video. Love the Music and editing love the audio and sound. well done
How do you guys feel about coilover to air suspension conversion kits??
epic
3:05 yo wtf is up with the switches on your wall lmao
"So you want a Acura legend"
Do you need a sensor kit for this set up? Can you go back and add one later?
Sensor kit as in? Usually the kit provides you with everything that you would need to get it in. Provides ya with a wiring harness too! -Edgar
@@FitmentIndustries like those little levers that mount in each wheel well. Are those needed for the 3S system?
what song is it during the trunk setup montage?
Damn I wish I could do this to my g35 sedan
fi vid quality has been going ⬆️
🙌
Do you plan to drift the 8?
i’m late cuz i went to baco tell and they got my order wrong :(
Baco Tell SUS
Soapy Wooder*
Are they twins?
Is the ol'Rx8 going to get a turbo after Wheels tires and Suspension from FitmentIndustries.com ?
The renesis engine is finicky when it comes to turbos. The more reliable option is rew swapping it
Episode 3 of I'm gonna probably regret this later
E30 content please. Or any BMW content please
We seen them busted knuckles y’all made this look too easy
Mazda 8Dr, janel
Owner drops a dorito and dog drops a duece
How can like this video twice and sub twice?
I’m convinced Jells is Jonah Hill in disguise prove me wrong. 😂

Don’t say steal buddy, always say “you borrowed” the tools buddy!!
