[quote name='Black8' date='Aug 27 2005, 08:05 AM']I don't think I'll get another RX8 again....my next project will be some kind of Turbo RX7, either a 1st gen, or a nice S5.......car payments suck....

[quote name='Judge Ito' date='Aug 26 2005, 06:41 PM']funny part is, most of the times a seal is broken, it happens after the detonation. at idle or cruising. not under a load.. basically after the fact.

That is a possibility but we will never know if that was the case and I wonder how you tell if there is the case? I'm curious to know how one determines that exactly?

I found some of your apex seal in my yard.



Good thing the FE rotors are like 1/4th the cost of FB/FC/FD rotors
