I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

My next project, if I ever start one

Post by *CACKYWHEELS » February 12, 2008

I always considered purchasing the RX-8 but after hearing testimonies, I decided it just wasn't worth it.

So to make things a *little* more reliable, this guy's taken his 7 and put an 8 front end on there.

My friend next door actually has a Mazda RX8 GT w/ Navigation.... and unfortunately it seems like every other week it's in the shop for warranty work. Thus far he's been through 1 transmission, possibly going on number 2, 1 engine replacement, etc. etc. etc. Kind of sad really, as overall I really like the vehicle.

That car is smokin hot, love the front end conversion. A friend had that bodystyle of RX-7 with an LS1 swap done by Hinson Super Cars, it was super reliable, it never broke, ever.

...and why should it?

Pray to God of LS1, I hope your speed over the rival!

I like it, but I have a feeling it would look odd from any other angle. The 8 front seems much wider.
