damn, i can't seem to find any of these used in red with brown leather interior like yours. all of them come with that ugly ass red leather or cloth. very nice ride.
@nathsgames it did very well I kept the boost at 7psi most of the time so it was a very good daily driver. I absolutely loved this car I never should have sold it!
@DJSkyhawk Ah K that's great to hear as I hear so many conflicting reports with the Rotary engine and looking after it and how much oil and fuel it uses, etc, etc, so it's good to hear from an owner that they're not all that bad! As I would really like to buy one! Thankyou.
Hey i am thinking about getting a turbo for my 8. wondering a few things about it... any recommendations on what kind... How much did it cost you to get it installed and how much was the turbo itself? thanks
all the decals were custom made at a local shop in Savannah. You just show em the logo you want on like a print out or on the internet and they will make it for you in what ever size you want, the big windshield one was like $40
i cant remember the name but its the shop right next to best buy in Savannah right outside of Hunter. They do a really good job, and there fairly priced.
I live in Canada... Vancouver.. I'll be picking up my 2005 rx8 with 45000 km from dealer hopefully tomorrow. What should be some of the first things I do to it? Dealer says they will do the 150+ point inspection.. etc.. but its all bs... I heard a lot about changing or topping up oil fairly soon.. what kind of oil should I use.. there seems be a debate regarding this issue...
@1yakko1 Use the recommended Mazda Mineral Oil (do not use synthetic), and get it changed at the dealership every 5000 KM's. Depends on how frequently you drive, but I usually top up every month with 1/2 liter of 5W30 Mazda Oil (and I fill up usually once a week). Check the oil every 3 or 4 gas ups, and use Chevron 94 Octane, as it contains no ethanol.
@1yakko1 Oops, I mean I fill up with Gas once a week (not oil), from a 1/4 tank. Never run it empty. Check oil every 3rd or 4rth fill or at least once a month. I also live in Van.
so your the new owner of my old car huh??? thats insane dude lol I'm actually stationed at hunter, you got it at hinesville auto, i traded it in at chatam parkway toyota thats weird...... dude you gotta bring it out to the weekly car meet on saturday nights id love to see it again and I can tell you anything you want to know about that car i did all the work on it myself.
Yeah man , i just got 4 tickets haha. Whats the specs on it such as turbo.. i know its a freeflow exhaust. The boost is only at like 6psi did you have it up higher?
Its the GReddy turbo kit, i cant remember what size the turbo is but its fairly small. The boost is at 6 psi cause its very dangerous to go any higher on the renesis engine, you will blow the apex seals, I had it set to 8 psi at one time and it did pretty good but I tuned it back down to help with gas a little. So what were the tickets for??
Dude, Mount the boost gauge in the air vent right there, that is where i have mine mounted on my audi tt, i have it centered, so that air flow still goes around it
nice!!! i have chapparal interior as well. i have the GT package nordic green. i'll put a video of up of it tomorrow. i want to have my 8 turboed one day.
kool, so are you running an rx7 engine in it? or did you get this one turboed instead? and do you fink its a gwd idea to get this converted to an rx7 twin turbo rotary if i buy one? im really confused whether to buy an altezza or a rx8; but the rx8 have this sporty look to it, where as an altezza is a sedan
No its still the Renessis engine and not the FD kind that comes with the 7's however in a few months I will be putting RX-7 rotors in my engine. The conversion to put a FD series motor in the car is very simple. Its nothing like dropping in a 20B 3 rotor in it :-P
Its not so good in the snow seeing as its rear wheel drive. Having the manual transmission isnt to bad in heavy traffic but your foot does get sore from the constant pushing in and out of the clutch pedal and as long as you can drive a manual I havnt had any problems with roll backs on hills.
