I have the spare tire kit for the RX8 for sale 200$ I also have the rain deflector that sits on top of the RX8 so you can ride around with your sunroof open while it rains.

I got it started. I had it towed to the shop on post here at fort knox and they said they didnt want to touch it cause its a rotary.... and I would have to get it towed to oxmoor mazda. I just keep doing some reserach and just found it was flooded. I did the pull the fuel pump fuse out method and after a few tries it started right up. I I changed the oil and that got rid of the check ingine light and the car has been running right as rain . I guess not drving the car for 30 days would cause the engine to flood. Oh you silly rotary lol

Hello. Don't really post, but first time for everything. I have a pearl white 05. Sadly it's at, but it was the right price. New engine has only 15k on it, but I'm getting the misfire cel. Paul miller said I needed plugs, wires, n coils. Only 15 k I find this hard to swallow at 855.00. I am no handyman, but I am gonna buy the parts on line. If someone wanted to make a cool hundy burger and install for me, we might do business. I live in lex, work in Georgetown. Any takers hmu! Thanks!! Btw I only drive it in manual mode, and I redline it a couple times a week. No little old lady here...lol

I can do this. I'm not a mechanic but I have done this before on a friend. 855? who told you that price? The best parts range between 580-640 Black Halo Racing Ignition System | Black Halo Racing this coils have not failed anyone so far. Plugs will always need replacing though. I live in Irvine but can also do it in Berea. If your interested PM me and will negotiate cost.

Lexington

Just moved to Lexington, KY from New York, looking for friends/good options for taking my 8 to get work done on it. I need to replace the clutch and Master/Slave, swap in a midpipe, do something about the air intake situation, and a lot of upkeep maintenance and little mods. Anybody chill that is nearby and has or knows a decent shop, preferably where I can do at least some of the work myself?

KY Bowling Green (close enough anyway)

this thread is clearly dead but idc. im a noob.
been looking for a new project for minute. found an 04 rx8 and rolled with it. always been hesitant to go rotary but now that i have one, i'm intrigued. been researching for a couple weeks now but kinda wanna find some peeps with real world experience. i have a mild plan for what i wanna do, but its all still in pipe dream phase and i still have alot more to study.

I live in Louisville a little north of the forest and have a pair of velocity reds hiding in my garage, one currently under going a heart transplant and the other gets driven occasionally in the warmer months. My brother lives just over the river and has a 40ae that's a couple shades of grey. Besides ours, I rarely see 8s these days.
