Hi!

Hi! Finally got my RX-8. 05 sport (No sunroof ) Been looking for a while and got permission from the boss. Lurked for a while gathering info for my plan of attack: BHR ignition and midpipe, mazdaspeed exhaust, AP tune, full mazdaspeed suspension. And now...pic! Have to resize my other one

Awesome...congrats and welcoem to the forum.

Don't get the MazdaSpeed Exhasut its same as our Stock with MazdaSpeed stickets slapped on it.

Get RB instead or Greddy.

also, make sure you get the compression test done, ensure your coils, plugs, and wires are in good order.. they need to be replaced every 30k.

Read the new potential owners thread till your eyes hurt, thats your rx8 bible.

Also, check our rx8 modification guide, before you take our your credit card ;-)

BHR ignition and Midpipe is a good step towards reliability and little performance gains.

once again welcome and if you have any questions feel to ask.

cheers

I'm getting the dual can not the sport exhaust ;-). Once I sell my other car I plan on adding the sohn adapter to run 2 stroke to the oil injectors. Also going to open up the oil cooler vents from the diy thread. Thanks for the welcome

Btw Khurram how do you like the rb sway bars? Been debating on those or the mazdaspeed. I know they're stiffer but i won't be on the track much.

They are pretty awesome..much better stiffer feel than the OEM Sways.
You feel most of the diffrence (improvement) on the track though.

Can't say how they compare to MS sways, since I don't know anyone who has them.
