you'll never get all of the details. each rx8 is different. mine is an 04 with 89,500 miles on it and it runs great and has never had problems with the engine and the only problems it did have were caused by service department screw ups.
Rotaries require oil every so often, and they require new spark plugs about every 20k miles. beyond that, it's your typical wear and tear maintenance.
