2004 Black RX8, racing beat upgrades, new engine, etc.

I live in Olympia, call for Kiara 360-970-7951 or email kiara.boggs@gmail.com


2004 Mazda RX-8 Grand Touring package 100K on the chassis, 8000 miles on the new engine
Black exterior, Red/Black leather interior. There are some dings on the exterior (passes the 10ft rule though) and the leather on the steering wheel and driver's seat are a bit worn but not really noticeable.
New parts put in:
Brand spanking new engine, installed by Mazda under warranty
New throttle body and air pump and air pump solenoid
Upgraded Mazmart water pump & thermostat, brand new
BHR ignition coils, brand new
BHR midpipe w/ davesport hi-flow catalyst, brand new and no engine lights turned on
Racing Beat catback exhaust, brand new and sounds great
New ceramic brakes and rotors
Yellow Optima Gel cell battery, also brand new
K&N Drop in air filter
New O2 sensors, wiper blades
Front Grill
New belts
Recent Alignment done
Up to date on all flashes, also have complete warranty history & service history

Bought for 11k, we put well over 5k into the car to make it a reliable daily driver

Just installed Racing Beat gauges for the center console, water temp/oil temp/oil pressure (Oil pressure gauge wont read until the air is bled from the line)
I am religious about topping the oil off every 1000 miles and oil changes every 3000 miles, conventional oil is all we ever use as Rotor Engines should never use synthetic
I have every single record for this car since I've owned it and as you can see I have put new parts in it to correct some of the issues common with RX8s so it's reliable, runs like a champ. We bought a new 2012 subaru STI so we don't need this anymore.

I have lots of pictures and a video of a walk around, happy to answer any questions!
