finally after having her in pieces for almost a year she's almost back together

it's an 07 sport with 23k on it, no mods except for k&n intake

 

awsum! why was it in pieces?

 

Looks like a stock black mazda rx8 lol

 

got it off a wrecked car auction for ~4k and since i'm still in high school it was hard finding the cash to fix her

 

nice, seems like you got her fixed up. we're hosting a meet later this month and the next so you should come out!

 

I'll try my best but she still needs the back window put back in and air bags and all the inspection things

by the way credits to

pksan and gr3ddy for helping out with parts

 

how much have you dumped with parts?

 

~4k for the car towing was free (cousin did it) and parts were about 2500, but still needs things look closely at pix and you'll notice

 

i still have the stock brackets for the front license plate if you need it
although it looks better without it!

 

it does and i don't think i'll be needing those if anything i'll pm you before the meet or something

 

buying new airbags has gatta be pricy

 

the drivers side of hood and bumper don't fit well. you should adjust that

 

nicely done sanyok!

 

the brackets will be free of course
im guessing you still need the undertray as well? seems like youre missing that piece. well, hope to see you at the meet!

 

yup currently it's held on with a zip tie on each end, since i don't have the hardware and dealer prices are monstrous

amazingly the ones i needed came out to 300

yeah i'm almost at the point of either making my own, or shelling out the cash for it

 

300, nice find!!!

 

^ lol gr3ddy had the seat one and a local junk yard pulled one off a shinka

 

ah, nice

 

thank you, also if anyone is interested heres before pictures...

 

what did he hit?

 

truthfully i have no idea I'm guessing it was a dealer car since it still has the plastic film on the floor, and came with some dealer check lists in it. Yet when i got the papers all it said was that an insurance company sold it to me. It wasn't all that bad new door bumper and quarter ~1k in parts and labor


if anyone has access to carfax and wouldn't mind checking for me just shoot a pm

 

how many miles?

 

23k and best part is its 6 spd

 

sweetness!! Have fun with her!

 

^ i was expecting a "don't wrap her around a tree" comment, but yeah definitely will.

btw heres a story of what happened today on the way back home

me, mom and brother went to pick her up so i jumped in and started driving home, halfway there was a little traffic jam. Well as I was pulling up to the car in front I overheard a guy in a prelude scream out "look at that 8", once I looked over I noticed him pointing to me
