New RX8 owner. Regards from Poland.

Hey Guys,
I'm lucky new owner of Mazda RX8 2006 231 HP

The car is imported from Switzerland from 1st owner (Women)
The mileage in day of buying was 124K miles, i do another 6K traveling
to Holland and back. There is no problem with engine so far, start perfectly cold & hot.
Everything was OEM.

Going check the compression at this Monday.

I do little investment. Buyed

Hankook AXS65D26L Dual Purpose, AGM Accu
KNFilters 69-6030-1TFK Performance Intake Kit
KNFilters HP-1008 Oil Filter
KAMIKAZE Ignition Kit

So... My adventure starts. Wish me luck, and good mileage.

Nice find, it looks in great shape for 124k miles Or is that kilometers?
But, don't put the K&N intake on it. That is literally the worst intake possible, it will take power away and could make the MAF sensor reading unstable.

Keep the excellent OEM intake or get a Mazdaspeed/AEM one.

Ditto for what Loki says.

I have the Mazdaspeed/AEM on mine for years with no problems. It is one of only a couple of CAI that don't actually rob performance on a RX8.
