With demand for the 03 RX-8 extremely high all over the world for the first 6+ months, Mazda waited until DEC-03 before launching the Mazdspeed version.
Here are some details
Main Features of the RX-8 Mazdaspeed Version
1.
Specially tuned engine
- Exclusively designed PCM (Powertrain Control Module) to match the modified intake and exhaust systems.
- Customized fresh air ducts for efficient engine air intake.
- Customized sports muffler that produces a rich engine sound and reduces exhaust pressure (with catalyst).
- Special spark plugs to stabilize combustion.
2.
Use of Mazdaspeed brand parts
Engine related parts
- Double oil cooler set with improved cooling performance to handle hard driving.
- Lightweight flywheel and balance adjustments around the eccentric shaft for sharp engine response.
- Earthing kit to stabilize engine performance.
Chassis related parts
- Sports spring set to enhance driving stability (lowers vehicle by 20 mm).
- Mono-tube type shock absorbers that deliver both excellent high speed cornering performance and a comfortable ride.
- Fade resistant brake pad to enhance initial braking force and vehicle control.
Body reinforcement parts
- Front/rear strut bar and performance bar set to increase body rigidity.
- Large-diameter front/rear stabilizer bars to control rolling during cornering.
Exterior parts
- Exterior design by the RX-8 chief designer beautifully expresses driving performance with the front nose, rear under skirt, side skirt set, rear wing and Mazdaspeed ornaments, while maintaining the car's original balance.
3.
Body colors
The Mazda RX-8 Mazdaspeed Version is available in two colors: exclusive Strato Blue Mica with a high quality and striking appearance and Sunlight Silver Metallic, which is popular for its direct expression of sports driving.
Asking price was Y3,600 000

if you haven't realized yet....all these people that are feeding you 'information' on the mazdaspeed RX-8 are taking you for a nice, long ride.
in other words SEARCH, DAMN IT!
Consider this a learning experience.

This comes up a lot on the board so please excuse the flaming. There is no MS for the 8 only some MS pieces. It is a rather sore subject here and doing a little searching is a good idea.
Don't worry about Mugatu, he's just some tool of the search *****. I have never seen him post anything of value in the year I have been here.

Don't know what's up but they have a supercharger. It's been running over a year.
Maybe they want to test it for 2 to 3 years before they release it.
Hell couldn't hurt making it a engine option.

I anticipate him showing up when the question is so simple my Grandmother would know it and she was never a mech.
He is the searchhound for lazy non-searching people.
