Hmm... The NC and the RX-8 share the same bolt pattern and can use the same sets of wheels. I'll have the '8 paid off in about 18 months. Hmm...![]()
This is Ron & Annie Bauer's '06 NC mildly setup for CSP. 18x9.5 Enkei RP-F1s with 285/30-18 () V710s, JIC coilovers, and some minor engine bolt-ons. I'll bet this thing is a hoot to drive!
With the Goodwin Racing gang making ~160whp from minor bolt-ons (intake, exhaust, header, midpipe), excellent ABS, and room to fit monster rubber, could the NA/NB's reign in CSP be over?

Yeah, I saw that car on the pointy board a while back, it definitely looks hot.
It should be interesting to see well prepped NCs in CSP. I don't think they'll ever get as light as an NA but the extra power and rubber should make it a great contender.
Pedroza completely abused me off the line in a pretty much stock NC with JIC coilovers.

BTW, I thought those were the 245 V710s on that car. I thought Goodwin tried the 285s and they would only fit on the RX-8.

That's what ALL NC's should look like! Perfect ride height :)
A turtle by any other name still looks like an NC.
Or something like that.
