MastaMarek's Mazda RX8 [PICS] - oh yeah baby
So I ve been posting here and there on this forum but I acutally never showed my ride. I know there are much better 8's around but I m on a limited budget Here are some pics. Hope u enjoy.

So far those are my mods:












I ve got something similar to those but custom build from stoptech D:





So here's how all that turned out:
















ya, pics are not that great but I was taking them in a parking lot and people were looking at me with an odd expression on their faces so I m gunna wait till I go to michigan to take some pro pics.

yeah, price wise, they are exactly the same. My only concern was that they are 1lbs heavier then the EDR9's. So its 4lbs total on all wheels, but I dont think its gonna make that big of a difference.

Nice choice of mods. Just lose the strakes, roof fins, and stickers.

Great job - just keep the strakes, lose the roof fins immediately, as well as the stickers.
