When you change it.
Make sure there’s no swarf in the lines Etc.
Or it will be a early death for the new compressor.
You should also replace the drier.
Vacumn down the system min 30 minutes (Longer the Better)
Add the correct amount of PAG oil and A/C gas.

Still watching with great interest.
Nice box the T5.
Mine was modified by Competition Transmission Services.

Any other lightening going ahead.
Which Seals are you using as your boosted.

Best colour.

197U Obsidian Black - Metallic Finish

Love these Merc’s.
That’s quite high spec as well.
Possibly because I spent nearly ten years working at the Dealership.

Nice plate THZ. THanZs.

Tesla Electric motors.

Those engine shots are a red herrings.

Well I take my hat off to Carl.

With the time effort and funding behind this project.
And no doubt will sell a quite a few kits.

Shame there’s no room for a Turbo on the Sprint Project
Hence why I’m going the Supercharged route.

Nice looking R3.

Are you going to MOT it for the new owner.

Expired 22/08/2020.

It actually pumps very slightly less, most of the time, just through 6 jets rather than 4 jets. Under normal road conditions an R3 "consumes" less oil than an S1, assuming that they were both being driven the same. However, on track the R3 will consume slightly more, as the control curve from the P...

Doesn’t the R3 have three oil injectors.
Also the R3 actually pumps more oil into the Chambers.

Don’t remember seeing that on the Mazda Special tool board.

My advice would buy the best you can afford.
Buy with a compression test (That shows the true state of the engine).
BigPete shows the test results
Give it a good road test from cold taking it up to temperature and restarting..

There’s loads of tips to keep them running sweet.

If you go onto the Michelin or Pirelli tyre websites.
And do a search on recommendation for the RX8 they both say XL tyres.

So I’ll say for for the XL
The RX8 isn’t a lightweight at around 1400Kgs.
Weight is almost the same as my 4dr Diesel Mercedes.

Your complaint would be with ECP
As they supplied the Spark Plugs.

If you still have the D585 I’ll get them tested.

Do you still have the old Spark plugs.
Could you post some pictures of them.

Did it have a misfire before the rebuild?.

If that’s the case who supplied the plugs?.

Carefull out there guys.

There starting to steal the Catalytic Converters of RX8 now.
Recovered this from Worcester Park Surrey today.

If it helps to identify the grease that came out was a dark green

Ford CV grease is green.
Not sure if it’s dark.
Been a while since my Ford Dealership days.

Carl.

When are you expecting new stock?.

@Bill : I had my car done at Abbey Motorsport and recommend Mark and his team of people

Forgot all about Abbey Motorsport.

Not in the location you ask.
But a lot of the Mercedes Forum guys use and rate Wheels in Motion in Chesham Bucks.
May be worth a Call or Email.

I done a speed awareness course about five years ago. What surprised me the most was when asked by the Drive Tech guys One woman said I can stop in one cars length. When asked to explain herself. Well when I’m following a car on the motorway at 70+ and tailgating I can stop without hitting the car i...
