Just stopping in to say I am still around. Though I am in Iraq once more right now.
Still planning to leave my RX-8 stock/near stock. I am trying to off load my old TII and some of my old TII parts.
Also looking for clean virgin/near stock TII for a toy and a fresh start. I don't have time/attention span to work on a long term over the top project.
Anyone sees a clean runing TII shoot me a PM
I hope be a little more active when I get back.
Later.

Mid Aug sometime. I have decided to keep my curent FC and work with that. Though I have changed my mind about my FC2000 bumper. I would be willing to do pretty good trade for near perfect S5 front stuff.

I've got a perfect S5 front bumper but I just trimmed it for a FMIC. Let me know when you get back though.

Yup I just don't care for FC2000 look anymore. Someone can get the deal of year from when I get back with it. I will need fenders, headlights and front bumper. I lost so much interest in the FC after that BS motor last year. I tried to sell it, but that fell through. Some how it ended back at my garage month or so after a month of me being in Iraq, I had given thought into parting it out, which would have been a shame since its a very clean Turbo II. I have trouble keeping interst in long term projects, I start getting bored and changing my mind over small things, which lead to larger things, before you know I have spent 5k+ and car still isn't close to runing. I am taking different approach this time. I am pushing to get it moving on its own power for the first time in 5 years, it going to powered by 13B-REW, stock turbos, stock fuel system, and stock ecu (well I may have to get chipped ECU). Stock S5 bumper will not clear that beast of Spearco intercooler, so I will mount up something smaller. Once it moves on its own power I will get it painted and start working on the suspension and brakes, and then move back to power side of the house. BTW anyone want a Turbonetics Ball Bearing T72 Q Trim?

Your plans for your Turbo II are pretty much identical to mine but I've been considering doing paint before I drop the REW in. Maybe we can help each other out when you get back.

Its Turbonetics T72 Ball Bearing unit, with a Q-trim exhaust wheel, .96 AR housing on exahust side, 3.5 inch outlet. It also has some trick work done to the exhaust side to lighten the turbine. Never been ran, just bolt up several times. I would take $700 for it, its really just too much for me, unless I was trying to build a drag car.
