I live in Vancouver, Canada. I own a hobby shop and a while ago I decided to expand my shop to include some performance products for Mazda. My background is in road racing so I got the RX8 to make a show car for my shop and also to take to the track for fun. I decided to go with the 19 wheel just for show, and I got 18 Enkie RPF1 for the track. I also started to make the car lighter so I got the 11.5lb battery and got rid of the air condition, the stock seat, and the rear speakers. I put the single muffler and what a difference these changes made to the car! The car breaks way better and accelerate better. I lose a little bit of torque but for me the handling is more important than low-end power. Losing the weight of the muffler made a big difference.

Just in case anybody needs anything, since I'm a dealer for JIC, MCD (for wheels, turbo and exhaust), A Spec products (exhausts), APR wings, and braille racing battery, I can get a pretty good price on a lot of stuff.

This is the exhuast on my car, A Spec ASP-MU101AB. Their website is www.aspecproducts.com. And I can get it for $105, including shipping.

Braille 11.5 carbon fibre racing battery, B14115C. www.brailleauto.com. My price is $220, including shipping.

I put Volk TE 37 wheels, 19 x 8.5 front, 19 x 9.5 rear. $2700 including shipping. I'm also thinking to sell my wheels on my car for $2300 including shipping. I got them just 1 month ago. Now I would like to try Volk CE28N to see how it will look.

Thanks for all the responses. There will be a lot more stuff to be put on the car, so stay tuned.

your seats are badass!

Napboy 03-23-2007 11:58 AM

Your car is pretty sweet. May I suggest clear corners though? That orange is distracting.

Cattywampus 03-23-2007 01:57 PM

The car looks like it has a butthole. Hahaha. I love the way that car looks though. Don't care too much for the seats but those rims bring out the white a lot more. Good job

llzjayarzll 03-23-2007 02:10 PM

did anyone ever do any shiny bronze powdercoat?

Kel Rx8 03-23-2007 07:52 PM

car looks great man!

chickenwafer 03-24-2007 05:54 PM

sweet ride. I love the whites, and the gold rims, freakin sweet!! Just sets it off, super clean. I love the seats, too. That single-exit exhaust is trick, too. Nice work

9krpmrx8 03-25-2007 03:53 PM

Do you have any pics of your exhaust setup from underneath? And a close-up of how you modified the rear valance? Thanks.

ditto, I'd like to see more of the under tray modifications, as well as mounting and piping shots for the single, center exhaust. I don't really like the wheels, and deep front lips on the rx8 don't do it for me either, but the inside of your car looks the BUSINESS. And I'm sure it drives very nice, so be safe and continue tinkering!

9krpmrx8 03-25-2007 08:01 PM

Exhaust clips would be great too. Can I buy the exhaust items through you?

super rx 03-26-2007 02:15 AM

I will try to send you guys picture of under the car.

636 03-26-2007 02:30 AM

car looks clean! Not digging the rims that much....Exhaust is nice , looks clean too. Is it loud with that set up?

What shift knob is that? love the interior

super rx 03-28-2007 11:07 PM

I made shift knob from aluminum, because stock knob is peretty heavy.

And the exhaust was very loud when I first put it, and I have to put high flow convertor universal back in, and I got back my torque and the sound is really good now. As soon as I have the chance I will record the sound and post it.

Also me and friend trying to make carbun fiber drive shaft for rx8. stay tune

super rx 03-28-2007 11:16 PM

I know , If you take the stock shaft out is still heavy. we try to make one with less wight.

CarAndDriver 03-28-2007 11:24 PM

Nice pics, but not really into the gold rims though.

spokenstone 03-28-2007 11:34 PM
