I refuse to do the math on this, it'll be depressing.

zach legend: yup, I came to that realization this weekend. I think I am completely done with N/A mods. Nothin' left to buy. :dunno:

also, you forgot the suspension mods.

ZachLegend 09-03-2009 09:26 PM

ZumnRx8 09-03-2009 09:27 PM

Sorry for the triple posting but .... now I came to realized and Jedi came across a point... All mods done....nothing else to buy, After the 8's become old news what new FORUM/CAR/ADDICTION are we gonna move on to? :dunno:? If I can Ill get an RX3 and go old school with new school mix, like throwing in a FI (fuel injection) rotary turbo (RENESIS), RX8 seats, RX8 Gauges/Computer, pretty much swap all the crap in my 8 to my RX3...:)

ZachLegend 09-03-2009 09:29 PM

I don't want 8s to become old news :(

Jedi54 09-03-2009 09:29 PM

I'll be tinkering with a Camaro. :rock:

ZumnRx8 09-03-2009 10:05 PM

ok back on TOPIC....

dntsan 09-03-2009 10:09 PM

just got my rx8 for about half an year and spent around 200 for clear corners and afe short shifter. Sucks that being a college student, budget is always tight and cant afford the mods I want!

On a side note: whats the lowest price you guys have found for the mazdaspeed spoiler?

ZachLegend 09-03-2009 10:11 PM

i think ive seen around $400 on a few authentic. just keep checking the for sale section. I would defiantly get the real thing too. I can imagine a replica with "good" fitment would look horrid.

Jedi54 09-03-2009 10:12 PM

a new Authentic MS wing is over $800.
MSRP on them is about $1,050
