K cars getting a new engine and ive kinda lost confidence in a car that is 10 months old and has a entire new drive train.

just thinking of it right now

Greddy kit with mm 3071r (still waiting for shipment) + upgraded injectors + older profecb (non lcd) boost controller+bhr coils + aem intake 5,000

obx mid pipe never put on 100$

mazdaspeed shocks and springs 500$

 

any chance on body parts?

 

PMed

 

lol no body parts

 

pics of the MS Springs andshocks please! what kida drop are they? if any

 

hi there, very interested in the springs and shocks...are they used?? how long have they been on the car for and have they been aggressively used for track or just normal driving? lemme know....

 

man the guy doesnt even drive it aggressive.... lol it a stock like ride with a light drop AND! it feeeels much better in the turns...

Would you split the shocks from the springs? Id be interested in the shocks if so.

 

....i drive it hard enough the tires are bald and it has 20k miles on it


this is still gauging intreast at this point, not sure if i want to, and the future of this car

 

Might be interested in the midpipe, is it resonated at all?

 

no lol its a obx , i never even fit it to the car so not sure how well it fits

 

lol no you dont! lol my wires from my tires stuck out at 14K miles now thats hard driving!

 

thanks for the quick reply...can i also ask how many miles have been put through this spring / shock setup?? very interested in these!!

 

umm... guessing 10-15k, this car only has 20k on it and is 10 months old the springs are 6 or so months old


added the bhr coils and aem intake as things i would include with the turbo

i can post the older pic of before installed drop is not very big, i have pic of the turbo piping and coils in my image gallery

 

thats sounds good!! would you considering taking $450. i can paypal you afterwork if so. do you know how long mazdaspeed shocks and springs last for. i read that normal shocks and springs last for only like 25-35k miles. do these need to be replaced as frequent as normal stock ones. let me know....

 

my stock suspension was still good even after 50 k miles of abuse lol... these should last a good while! depends on the roads you drive..

 

whoa this is a guageing intreast tread, i havent even gotten the car from the shop back yet, driving a mazda 3 till they get the new engine in.

ive never heard of shocks lasting that short of a time period .....


id have to say 500 still, because the cost to ship and the paypal fees allready is a rapeage , plus i need to buy a spring compressor. wont take money untill i get the car back at least.

 

You do realize you can rent one for $40 or something, right? You get all your money back when you return it. Autozone for sure, but probably every parts place has it.

 

what!!!!!! don't do it, you just will have a new engine installed, so it will be good.
don't do it, you will have fun when you are installing the turbo in your car, just becareful toward the tuning. i would say ...KEEP IT....

i'd be interested in the turbo kit this summer.

 

ok that sounds good!! lemme know when you get the shock springs out of your car and we'll go from there. thanks for your help on the questions too...dont know much about rx8's since i barely bought my half a year ago.

 

holly O_O the car has the new engine, ive decieded to keep the turbo kit for now. I'll probably keep the car for now but the turbo is going to have to sit off


I will sell the suspension, I will try to get it off by this weekend and take photos if still intreasted.

 

I'm lookin for a VFAD SOLENIOD VALVE if you got one?

 

that's what i am looking for man...good luck, just slowly building it..
