New to me RX8

Hey everyone! I just wanted to get on here and say hi to everyone. Once I get a car I try to learn everything I can on them. I got myself a 2004 RX-8 Type S if got a little of 11000 km and running strong. First thing I did was an oil change has anyone used the oil filter I pictured below? it seems like the popular choice in Japan.

Welcome

I don’t have any info about the oil filter, but this forum is active and helpful. I posted about a crack in my dashboard and got a half dozen relies in a day. I’ve had my RX-8 over two years now. I’ve gotten a lot of info off of here. Especially getting started info.

Always best to get an OEM Mazda oil filter for this car. Actually does perform the best. Congrats on your new 8. 11k km, its basically brand new. Check out the new owners sticky at the top of the forum.

Gauge cluster says 109866 - miles or kilometers ?
Also, the gauge cluster is reversed - maybe thats the way it is with RHD RX8s ??
