Nothing. I changed my intake valves and gained 50 HP!

You wouldn't think that a rotary engine would wear out it's intake valves in such a short time so I think that I should sue Mazda under the Lemon law. What do you think. I need opinions on this. Maybe I should do a poll.

I wonder if they can supply me with some Blinker fluid, and new gears for the flux capacitor?

I just called there customer service to give them a little bit of rotary knowledge and the guy was a little rude on the phone.

I said ....

Hey i just wanted to let you know you have some serious problem regarding the RX8 on your website. Your selling parts that don't exist because its a rotary engine. Your selling rx8 intake valves, the rotary engine doesn't have valves it has ports. Your selling a head gasket seal, the rx8 doesn't even have a head gasket. A crankshaft seal it has something similar which is an eccentric shaft. I just wanted to let you know that its real hard for me to buy from a company that has so many blatant errors on there website.

He then hung up on me

oh and here is a list of a whole punch of parts. The crankshaft seal acually has a part number tied to it.

crankshaft seal
piston ring
rod bearings
Timing belt
timing belt tensioner
valve cover gasket
intake valve
head gasket
