Rx7_Fan has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Please bring back the Rx-7. It looks so much better than the rx8.

kilowatts (killo 10^3) and nanometers (nano 10^-9) my ti-86 calculator will do the conversions but im too lazy to get it from my car. nano is really tiny, computer ram is measured like this (nano seconds). did you notice they spelled tire=tyre ? pretty odd huh?

FE is contained in the VIN on all RX-8's however, the factory identification for the chassis is identified as "SE3P." Many debate it, but the general concensus is that it's an SE3P.
