Not my style but damn nice work.

 

I'm not sure it's my style either but it was just a bit of an experiment - I've picked up a couple more covers from ebay so might try something a bit more Sci-Fi or Manga style on the others before I commit to fitting it

 

where do you get the nice painted front lip at? my ugly black plastic one is freaking ugly

 

I'm on temp wheels since i just sold mine so don't laugh lol. Waiting for some tires on the RGII's i just picked up.







New Wheels!

 

I truly like your front bumper, Rayn!
Here's mine.

In despered need for new wheels.

 

So ive had my 8 about 2 years now money is super tight being a house owner now while maintaining travel & photography etc so trying to just do what i can on a budget.

Hopefully one day soon i will be able to afford some nicer Japanese wheels, they are quite expensive here in NZ (~3k for some RPF1)

Imanaged to import these MSR wheels from the US for a third of the price & as an alternative to all the chinese wheels flooding our market, probably not too different but "made in USA" gives me some hope of social approval lol..while also being able to switch over my RE040 stock tires which are still in roadworthy condition.

I do love the stock look but its nice to chance up from all the other stock looking rx8s around my town. Sitting on mazdaspeed suspension and finding them perfect height & stiffness for our roads here. MSR045 18x8.5 +35 stock tires.

 

Here is mine

 

Camp Lejeune NC

 

Nice ride, needs less offset on the wheels though. And get that tail light fixed! My son just left Camp Lejuene, you been there long?

 

 

Just got to Lejeune, just hit my 20 year mark too, lol, left Japan in Oct, had a RX7 FDS 1997 couldn't ship it cause of the laws, u can ship until 95, but had the 8 since 2006, it was in storage, will post some pics of the 7 later. Ur son just left. The lights are good on the 8

 

Nice FD. I was Navy, my father is retired Marine Corps. I would be retiring next year if I stayed in but I didn't want to stay in. My son is a Corpsman, he did his Marine Force Fleet training (I think that is what it is called) at Camp Lejuene.

 

ok, that's nice, thanks for the FD comment, the FD was a different beast, very fast specially with the twin turbo, however would not change the 8, the 8 its more comftable inside and more spacious. I had the opportunity of drifting the RX7 FD numerous times, and hang with friends with Skylines R32, 33 and 34's and Supras. Japan was a different beast. but with all that said, glad I'm in the states and have my baby back. just trying to shop for the MS body kit, nobody have it in stock, not the real one at least. when I left was still on production, and now its not in production anymore, kind of sucks. yours looks very nice, seen it on the forums a few times, looks very good.

 

some more pics of my 7 and 8

 

my 7 and 8

 

Still a work in progress

 

First pictures I've taken after coming back from deployment, and the first with my new DSLR. Not the best, I have a lot to learn DROP IS COMING! STOP HOUNDING ME ABOUT IT LOL

 

Hey your angle of arrival is great, I would recommend some all terrain tires though if you are serious about off-roading.

 

Good idea, what about a lift kit?

 

Don't do it!

 

Don't tempt me!

 

 

An RX-8 with a ski rack. Something you just don't see everyday.

 

The VRM is such a sweet color! Love the little "fleck" it has to it.

 

before i wrapped her purple ...



hmmm which color is better?
