:sadwavey:

04=no Shinka.
If it has leather and a sunroof, it's probably a GT though. Sorry.

ZumnRx8 09-21-2010 06:52 AM

PICS............ maybe he swapped out all the trim?

HomicidalApple 09-21-2010 07:08 AM

awww that sucks if its not.. would be sad if someone sold you one and told u it was... hopefully zumn is right though

and your name on here has Shinka in it... =P

Rotary-RX8 09-21-2010 11:00 AM

Cant be a shinka cause first of all 04 didnt have shinka. And by your name im assuming your car is silver and they dont make shinkas in silver. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

If it's silver, you were duped.

New Yorker 09-21-2010 02:44 PM

But you weren't duped as much as you think. I have a Shinka. Aside from foam-filled suspension bits (a very minor enhancement), the differences were all cosmetic. Just an opportunity for Mazda dealers to jack up the price. No biggy.

ZumnRx8 09-21-2010 03:08 PM

GT>Shinka anyways

Roidz 09-21-2010 03:44 PM

Fixed...:wiggle:

I had an 04 GT and compared to the 06 Shinka I replaced it with, the 04 GT felt like an old pickup...:smoker:

From Car and Driver...

"Mazda engineers prepared the RX-8 Shinka's suspension for an assault on the corners, with tweaks such as a foam urethane-filled front suspension crossmember and specially tuned dampers. Rigidity is improved by reinforcing the upper portion of the A-pillars and the rear shock mounting points. "

:eyetwitch maybe it's just me though....

ZumnRx8 09-21-2010 06:12 PM

cornholio135 09-21-2010 06:56 PM

SilvShinka 09-27-2010 09:30 PM

how do you go about changing ur username anyways!?....
or am i just going to have to register again??

Lunacy 09-27-2010 09:43 PM

pm a mod and ask nicely.

Renesis07 09-28-2010 11:20 AM

Hopefully you didnt pay more for it. If there's any documentation that states it is a shinka, you have grounds for a lawsuit. Just FYI. If it was all verbal, then you have a silver Rx8 GT lol

SilvShinka 10-01-2010 02:43 AM

Renesis07

No, got it off Craigslist....lmao
i got owned...AND I HAVE AN UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!
MY CAR IS A 2005!!!
the guys said it was an 04.....and hes wrong!....

SO, MY CAR IS A 2005 RX-8 ((GT?)) WITHOUT THE AERO PACKAGE!

It's too late now, but you REALLLLLLYYY should have researched this car more. Good luck with it, I hope they maintained it well enough.
