Am i right?

Hey everyone im new to this forum and I had a few quick questions i couldnt find while i was searching.. Did they actually stop making the cobb Accessport for all year makes? because i just got an 04 rx8 6mt and ive been doing alot of research and from what i know I want to do these mods in this order and if my order is off can someone help and tell me why i would do it differently?..If they make the accessport still im gonna go with that first then an AEM intake, Midpipe, and finally a catback exhaust.

Go to www.mazdamaniac.com for answer on AP, but with an 04, you can still get one....I'm pretty sure about that.
Warning..........Jeff is a tough cookie, so make sure you follow the directions and don't be a moron, he's not exactly the most patient nor tactful individual on this board.

Your order at quick glance doesn't look that bad. I would at some point think about getting a BHR set of coils. The stock coils(In my opinion guys!!!!!!) shouldn't be used much longer than about 25-30k miles.

Gonna give you some links to go read since you are new..............it will help a lot if you take the time to read some of these. At least some of the first few posts in each!

Well i was thinking about going with either the tein flex coilovers or the stance coilovers.. I know the teins are more expensive but which would be better for a daily driver? and thank you for that info manill be sure to look at all of it.

Just for daily driving...get the stance coilovers instead.

Mazurfer meant coils, not coil-over shocks. electric coils, which fire the spark plugs.

The coils are the same across all model years. It's just the 04's are older and more likely to have a coil failure. Any car with over 30+K miles could have bad coils.
