There is nothing wrong with my car (besides it having a 4spd AT tranny LOL) I just have a couple quick questions... (this was not at MAZDA)

1. I went to replace my rear diff fluid, and they told me since its LSD there is some special additive besides the rear diff fluid you have to add for the "clutch thingy inside the lsd"? Is this right? I have 60k miles.

2. Since I have bought my RX8 i have replaced my oil and oil filter every 3k miles, am i doing it too soon? I use regular 5w20 no synthetic.

3. I asked the tech (not MAZDA) about replacing my AT tranny fluid, and he said no because theres some sort of way our AT RX8 tranny cleans itself? Somekind of hydraulic crap inside our tranny?

I check and add to all my cars fluids as needed.

Oh yeah....

My CD player does not want to read any CD...it keeps saying "check CD", will one of those cds with brushes to clean cd players work, or is it something else? There is no cd's in my radio unit as of now, i ejected all of them.

and yeah i did already PM teknics also

Just the parts in bold. However there's only a 30% chance he will give you a ticket. They usually like to pop civics and the like for mods and exhaust.

as long as you keep the pedal light and you don't give them any reason to pull you over it should be fine.

Atillas might be the replica version?? I don't know.
The pics I posted are of the Authentic version on the current 09 RX-8 and on the 04 - 2008.
I got my pics out of the Group Buy thread

damn it - there's multiple kits from Auto Exe. I think Jedi posted the se03 kit.

Rotr8 might have to check me on that one tho - but that kit that i posted was one of the first ones that Autoexe came out with. the one Jedi posted was the new one

Is Shine still around? I called them last week asking if they still made the burnout replica kit...and got no call back. I don't see their kits listed on ebay anymore either.

New Autoexe > old AutoExe.

Rev: I sure as hell hope so - I haven't talk to Ken in a while but i heard they were doing fine - especially because a lot of forum members JUST got their kits not too long ago - someone even picked up the auto exe kit i posted like 2 months ago...

I know they were never big on returning calls...heh - you should've seen their group buy thread

Im iffy about the fog lights...maybe i can tint a little?, i like both the old and new one. Imma check it out. (the group buy) but somehow i think the first one will look better with my WB.

the kit comes WITHOUT the fogs so you're in luck. Some people just add them
