I wouldn't be so fast to make a blanket statement that all 19's are crap. If you have a look at alot of the euro and japanese touring cars running massively large aluminium rims.

But I see your point, alot cars these days run 19's for the bling factor. Which is okay I guess if it's just a cruiser.

On another note... knickers?? :(

I doubt many can afford one 19' aliminium not to mention a set. 19's make handling really crap, I mean with my 18's its on the nerve of giving me the sh!ts. I dont think they contact the road as good as 17's or 16's would. I might be wrong but alot of people - general public that is, not talking workshop cars, use 16's predominately or 17's when running down the strip.

Anyone seen or know of a dark blue rx8 with a very very low bodykit (Wise sport type) going around Adelaide sporting trade plates. Apprently it has force induction of some short.

that would be nice the Rx8 has 186KW NA which would = arround 150RWKW not to bad for a 1375kg car

Yeah looking at your avatar just reminded me of it. Was on main north rd going towards town when i was heading home. Just heard a loud bov flutter and it went pass. Also heard a bov flutter from a civic sedan on the parade. I wonder how they would go being fwd and all.

nice Madaz - thx for the artwork. I was going to do it, but now you saved me the trouble :(

Yeah I have seen a Silver 350Z with some sort of turbo setup too - big intercooler in the front gives it away!

Has anyone here actually driven either a 350z or rx8 (some ppl on this forum says the mazda 3 turbs are better). Opinions besides the looks - exterior and interior.

yeah ive test driven the Rx8 very nice 6spd manual leather int. 18" rims was very comfortable yet had the feel of sporty wanna get up an keep going

yep I looked at buying both a 350Z or an RX8, and drove both a few times. Both very nice - handling fantastic, awesome leather interiors, lots of toys etc etc. However both were quite underpowered with very limited ability to modify - plus were going to be a $30k+ changeover from my S15 (which in a lot of ways is a better car) :(

I heard of a fairly low km RX8 selling in the Eastern states for $36k the other week - so am damn glad I didn't take the plunge now!

Gosh $36k and not even an 'import'. Im thinking a VQ would be on par with a N/A rb25 if not better due to its higher displacement. No doubt the interior of the 350z are awesome, just curious as to how good it would be in stock form - say the track spec one's. Never driven a car at the showroom's before, is there alot involved before they let you give one a go I wonder..

just drop in in your line and have a chate if your serious they dont even care if your not

i wasnt gunna buy a Rx8 just wanted to drive 1 :( i was on the priority list for when they first came to adelaide cause i signed up @ the mazda site

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
