Looks pretty much like the typical Mazda stuff.

Does the Rx-8 have about 90billion 10mm nuts also?

 

does the rx8 flywheel look like a FD flywheel?

 

Looks just like it except it is much lighter. That is why I used a FD lite flywheel.

Sure does. What are your plans tonite?

 

do u know how much the rx8 stock flywheel weighs? are the rotors on the rx8 the same weight as the REW ones?

Yeah sure we can work it out. I have a lift at my parents house and the shop what ever is best for me at the time.
