has anyone put rx8 rotors into an FC block....TII S5? im looking to rpoduce a moderitly high powered N/A 2ng gen and wanna know if this is even worth the money. or just get some 9.7 from a 89-91 2nd gen. also...if i swap the rotors, do i need the counter weights an e-shaft? is the rx-8 e-shaft stronger? thanks

$ vs. $
S5n/a > Renesis ...due to machining costs and the almost nothing performance difference... |
as far as i know the 13bmsp rotors will work but you will need the counterweights to go with them.
s5 na 9.7 rotors or 13bmsp 10.0 rotors hmmmmmmm interesting. |
Hahaha....this is exactly the same setup I'm planning to get around to someday.
T2 4 port irons with the Renisis 10:1 rotors, counterweights and stationary gears. I think it'd be a great motor for nitrous.... |

Well not exactly, just saying that having a motor setup like that in the first place could produce over 200whp.
Nitrous would just make it FUN! |
to me...the .3 compression difference isnt that big of a deal. but very nice. why im interested is there lighter and belive it or not, less exspensive. i am also using a FD upper IM with TII lower IM. just to add. I need to know if i need to use the rx-8 E-shaft and counter weihgts or can i use the stock ones in the TII set-up. if there not interchangable, well then....i'll be sending the s5 rotors out for lightening and going with that. either way. it'll be a nice daily driver/honda killer N/A set up. I hope anyway.

they'll fit, but you have to use the counterweights (which you already know about), and the e-shaft too.
and either don't spin it very fast, or machine the rotors to take the earlier apex seals. the renesis apex seals don't like peripheral ports. |
