TonyHalo : Hi from France
Hi guys ,
I'm Anthony from rx8france.com. I have spent much time on your forum dreaming on the great mods your are doing here (bodykits, superchargers, turbos, 20b...), but never took the time to post some pictures of my own Rx-8 (which you might have already seen on the web). Now here I am !
Here's the list of the mods I have made :
Engine :
- Carbon Ram Air Duct + Green air filter
- Cat delete midpipe
- Tanabe Ultra Medalion Catback
- sCANalyser Pro Tuned
- Engine bay home made
Handling :
- Rota P45-F gloss black redlip wheels
- Bridgestone RE050A + Toyo R888 for trackdays
- Goodridge brake line
- Hawk HP+ brake pads
- JIC Magic FLT-TAR suspension kit
- Greddy strut bars (front+rear)
Body :
- Knightsports body kit
- Seibon TSII carbon hood
- Carbon rear lip
- Carbon mirror covers
- Aluminium rear bumper grilles
- Clear side markers
- Chrome bulbs
- Coloured windows
And other stuffs...
Interior :
- Full LED
- iPod (XcarLink)
- Phone
Here's one video I have made :

(Thanks to Joshua Hanley (altspace) to have inspired me )
For any question, feel free to ask !
See you soon

Thanks Bullit & altspace
The location is my father's garage, it's quite convenient
I love your blog altspace, I wanted exactly the same bodykit as yours before I finally decided to buy the KnightSports (less common in France)

Thanks guys, it's a real pleasure to read your comments !
@type59 : my friend with the blue 8 has the Supersprint exhaust. And my ram air duct is the same than the Racing Beat, but in carbon fiber (see pic !), so yes it works with the stock air box

Thanks !!
@ type59 : yes it sounds good and not too loud with a catless midpipe, unlike my Tanabe which has an awesome sound with the stock cat but too loud without That's why I removed it and came back to the stock exhaust with larger tips. I am now waiting for my Tanabe to be sold and then I will buy the Racing Beat
@ Fate710 : yes I know it would be nice to lower it more, but I can't ! Here in France there are too many speed bumps, small roads, high pavements, holes on the road and other roads in bad shape ! So if I don't want to break my expensive Knight Sports fiberglass body kit, I have to keep a reasonable height !
