I had to part with my 2007 RX-8....
 

Today was mixed with sadness and happiness. I had to sell my 2007 RX-8 (less than 15000 KM on the odometer) as I need to finish up my move from Tokyo to New Jersey/New York. Sad because I had to sell my pristine RX-8. Happy because I can go for a new one in NJ/NY.:) I enjoyed riding my 8 as it was a fun-to-drive car to drive while being decently practical with enough space in the back seat and the trunk. The exhaust sound from the R Magic TI-tipped exhaust was too addictive....

A good shot I took last year....

Dude, you should be ELATED now that you can get a shiny new MANUAL!! Plus u can choose from diff colors, options, ect. ect. Plus u can get them for dirt cheap, I would be geeked

sorry to hear, i just got mine and i have to say that i absolutely love it!

Congrats and good luck with your move :)

If you know the address where you are going to move then buy some parts and ship them to yourself!

^^No kidding, you should take a JDM order for everyone on the site before you leave! LOL

make sure you get one with the 18s when you get back to the states. really makes a difference.

well atleast it was a 6 port :) If you had the rb flash, you could've went to 9k !!! Good luck on the move, and take that exhaust off!

Good luck with the move. What town are you moving to?

I am moving to Bergen County. Once I secure a garage, I think I will go for a new car. While I am on the waiting list for a garage, I will make do with a company-issue Civic.

If I need some parts, I can certainly ask my folks to ship them to me. Maybe, I can still even deal with a Mazda dealer in Tokyo.

you should put the stock exhaust back on, sell it, and ship yourself the rmagic exhaust.

and make sure you get a manual, its quite a different car. far more powerful.
4 port autos do 130whp.
6 port autos do 150whp, i think.
6 port manuals do 180whp.

Where did you hear that the 4 port Autos only make 130 whp? i dynoed mine last year and made 163 on a mustang dyno..

you must have a magic 4 port auto. was that with your exhaust, supercat, and rb duct?

most of the dynos posted here for the 4 port auto do about 125-130whp.

all i had when I dynoed was my borla exhaust and RB Duct

Kersh is right on that one, how the hell did you get 163whp on a mustang dyno? You must have a freak engine...
But the 6 port Autos can range from 150-165whp, the 6port MT is 170-190whp. Also they all have a 20hp difference to the flywheel.

4port: 192hp
6port Auto: 212hp
6port Manual: 232hp

You are really lucky then, most of them get 30whp less than you do. You are in the 6 port auto territory.

I feel really lucky then!

those are some funky rims. Looks small too.

ill never dyno that high here in colorado :lol2:

if I have 130whp at sea level then at 6000 feet I have 106.6 whp. That's if you figure you lose 3% of your horsepower for every 1000 feet.
