Were the headlights hard to find? Prob super expensive too right?
Just emailed Paul @ Mazmart and about a week later I had them. |
Good stuff man, can't wait to see it all come together. I see you got an oil line adapter, what gauges are you planning to run?
|
Looking good!

Also it seems like the consensus is that it isn't possible to check oil pressure on 09+ RX8s. Is that only due to the increased oil pressure or am I missing something? |
Great quality build. Refreshing to see builds done right from the get-go.
|
Yes cool stuff, wjo makes the undettray?
|
Nice! I always get hesitant about aftermarket fenders and similar accenting as a lot of times it just looks gaudy.. but I have to give you credit, it all came together and I think you pulled it off pretty well! Looking good!
I actually really like the way the accenting ties together on the front bumper with the grill & lip, etc. |
Thanks! I admit even I wasn't sure how everything would work together or if the fenders would be "too much".

Very Cool build!
|
Wow nice!

Long time no updates, the car has mostly been stationary as I have quite a few broken lug studs. Thanks to the body shop guys for destroying them and not letting me know.
So since I will be replacing the lug studs, I will also be doing some brake work. Here's what's going on: - Wildwood 14 inch rotor, 6 piston caliper bbk in the front https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...02ffbb4d09.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...83c588bb65.jpg - racing brake 2 piece rotors in the rear https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...e04f691d92.jpg I'm obviously aware that this is overkill for stock power, but I'm still hoping to rebuild and go FI within a year. |

Nice work man.
|
Brakes are in and working
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...f9e47a3818.jpg Unfortunately the one time I brought my car to work some jackass bumped my parked car and pretty much destroyed my odula lip :rant: Of course no note was left :icon_no2: https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...a4e83e179b.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...1ac78c5dfa.jpg Not sure if it's worth fixing... |
sorry about the lip, i hate people. your car looks great and coming from me thats a huge compliment cause i dont like the s2 looks and hate the color red but your car looks amazing
|
Good Stuff!
|
Oh no, sorry about your lip. It looks like fiberglass? I mean, easy enough to fix. Sucks it happened tho. I had someone back into my car in a parking lot, from my office building. I knew who it was because of the location of the damage, and the location of his tow hitch and another thing that stuck out. I literally had his tow hitch imprint in my bumper... when I confronted him he completely denied it.. and then went on to say "How do I know that you didnt back into MY car".... I was livid, but nothing I could do to prove it.. and him being a lawyer, knew that. ASSHOLE!
|
This is one angry looking 8. I approve.
|
Would you want to sell your old lights?
|
Sorry Davs, I've already sold them locally.
Quick update. The lip is back in CF this time. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx8...dff1c05f7e.jpg |
Awesome car. How do you like the LEG fenders?
