Weak start could be battery or ignition or starter or low compression. First two you'd probably want to replace if you just got the car and the 04 starter was too weak to begin with. Low compression would mean it's hard to start the car when it's hot but it'll start fine cold.

Our Rx/Houston meets are held all around town. If you been around the forums you would realize that any meet will require a drive.
If you got your car used do you have any maitenance records? Does your car feel mushy/bouncy/soft while you drive?
J is just stating the more obvious things car owners on a basic level would know owning an RX8.
