I exchanged the "spring".
Can you see that?

Everyone, Please tell me your comment.
This pics size is GOOD or TOO BIG ?

Thanks all
EAST MOON

Pics are never too big..........GREAT pics and post as always. Thank you EAST MOON.

Wow. Bodykits are really popular in Japan. The cars look Great. How many Miles do you have now?

Thanks, EASTGUY!
The big pictures are just fine for me!

The lowering kit on your yellow is really awesome!

The front treatment on the red is a bit much to my eyes - looks like it should have a sticker 'No Step!' to stop people standing on it....

Black is tremendous and the white is just perfect!!!

East Moon and side kick Naruto thanks for the pictures ,great quality and size ,love the rear spoiler on the yellow rx8 and the different wheels ,those stickers are cool.

The.best photo is of NAruto a class act .

OMG!!! Look at EastMOON's last pic. Just in the distance behind his car, is a GHOST!!!........:eek:

EAST MOON you are the only one that can answer this question . is the mazdaspeed front spoiler and ground effect fiber glass or plastic . i hope you say plastic not fiber glass.

EAST MOON, your ride height is perfect! :cool:

What springs did you change to? How is the ride and handling now compared to the original sets?

BTW, excellent pics as usual! Thanks. :)

That material is the "METON".
sorry...I don't know how to call "METON" in English.
Mazda said The METON does not break well, easily than FRP.

I think, maybe...not fiber glass.

EAST MOON

Very nice EASTMOON! :D

...How many Miles do you have now?


Please don't hear about it.......less than 1000 :D

That is the AutoExe's spring.
My RX-8's body came down 2cm, by that.

I don't know and understand a difference them,
Since I don't drive on the highspeed. and only drove city area of Tokyo. :D

Thanks
EAST MOON

swwwweeetttt east moon... thanx again.... as i look at these pics, i want one thing right now.... a freakin WHITE rx 8... if someon can promise me one is coming, i might wait... lol... naw, i gotta take mine asap!!!! shoot

Thx! Those were great!

Finally, some great pics of the winning blue from Japan!

East Moon,

I'm also in Tokyo, about ready to order the RX-8 and I'm looking to make some mods to it straight away.

Two questions for you.

1) Could you share where in Tokyo you got the springs installed and what was the total cost, looking for a reliable shop to get work done on the car

2) What size are your wheels and tires, they look great.

Ideally I'm thinking of getting some (Volks Racing SF- Challenge) wheels, 19" 8.5 in the front with 245/40 19 and 19" 9.5 in the rear with 275/40 19. Curious to find out if those sizes fit, if not then I'm going to have to go with 225s and 245s.

Thanks

EAST-MOON-san, really nice picses.
Please let me add one more picture.
After the meeting, I took a nice pic of you on my way to Tokyo.;)

Nice pics East Moon!

Thanks

Cheers
Oilman:D

Hi ether and Welcome!

New springs installed by the Mazda dealer.
the total cost was around 60.000 YEN
and my wheels size is 18"/7.5JJ tire is 225.

You chooses 275/40 19" ??!! I think, a thick tires takes RX-8's drive feel.

BTW: You know "R3" site..."RX-8 Rotor Router"
If you know that, Please visit also there.
We can meet in the RX-8 Japanese owners meeting. :D

Thanks
EAST MOON

Hi Yuhki

You could see that, I waved the hand to you in my RX-8.
I enjoyed Rendezvous run with you.

Thanks
EAST MOON

Congratulations ! for your first RX-8 meeting.

Tomorrow is on August 8 (Friday) in Japan, and the RX-8 Japanese owner is calling it "the 8's day".
Many Japanese RX-8 ownrs are going to meet tomorrow.
Of course, I will go to meet too with usual members.
maybe, 60 or more RX-8 meets at YOKOHAMA (the next city in Tokyo).

But, the TYPHOON (Hurricane) is approaching Japan now.
It seems that Someone called the typhoon for our meeting. :D

Thanks
EAST MOON

looking good guys. :)
