So I spent months on trademe looking for the right car at looking at skylines,silvias,180sx etc but always looked at rx8s every now and then and i eventually went for one and after a month and a half im still loving it. Its pretty much stock standard apart from few minor things



It came with Work XSA 18x7 (Im guessing 7) Im not a big fan of those, dont think they really suit the car but meh il get new ones soon.



Some previous owner in japan had installed a apparently really good pioneer headunit but its all Japanese and i cant do **** on it so thats not usefull. Its got a slot for like a hard drive and stuff so im interested to find out more about it if anyone could help. Its a Pioneer carrozzeria AVIC-VH9000

Iv installed an aftermarket cat-back exhaust when I got it to make it sound a bit louder and its done the trick.
Got it from Luxury Sports in South Auckland




I wanted to make it abit different aswell so i just grabbed a night shades can and tinted the taillights, I know a few people dont approve of this but idc. I like it and its my car so whatever haha



Got some superlow springs lined up and some side skirts from my mate at Luxury
Yea i know people will say just get adjusties but there like 5times more expensive plus gotta get certs for them

Im from Auckland but Im currently in Palmerston North for work training for 3 months

Is there anyone else in the Palmerston North area that would be interested in meeting up sometime and got a place i could use to install my new springs when they arrive?

Super low springs are **** house. just sayin. how much did they quote you?

i inquired (US company) about importing some tein s tech springs and that was a little over $300 to my door

didnt bother though, i'll get PROPER coilovers instead of the pieces of **** D2's everyone has here in NZ

Yea i know theyll be crap but really dont wanna throw too much money into it just yet untill iv worked out what my plans are for it.

There 180 NZ bucks to my door so it aint much

$180 id rather spend on hookers
