Ok, just ordered the following parts and they should be here within a couple of weeks...

 

Just curious, what is each one?

 

I was getting worried
you stopped building your car for about five minutes there

 

lol :D the first one is the crossbrace, then the ms short shifter, and ms clucth lines. Hmm i'm tempted by the short shifter too...

 

sigh..if only things didn't cost money, parts for this car cost more than most people's rent payments lol

 

" Black/Black Leather GT 6Sp, NAV, Strakes, Illum SH ****, Clear Side Lights, Leather PB Lever, Entry Lights, Silver Window BT, MS Body Kit w/ Spoiler, MS Springs/Struts/SW Bars/FR & Rear Strut BAR, MS Exhaust & MS Flywheel, MS Air Filter & MS Grounding Kit, MS B Spec Brake Pads & Brake Lines, Titanium Pulley Nuts & Bolts, Titanium Wheel Studs, 19" Axis hiro wheels 8.5 & 9.5 w/ 235-35 & 265-30 K104 Tires (M ECU Flash) + short shift, underbody tie bars, clutch line " WOW and i thought i did alot of stuff to mine !

 

Too bad you have the NAV eh cortc? You can't install the MS gauges!

Think you'll ever install the rollcage?

 

Why would you want the braided clutch line? Just because it's offered?

 

where did you purchase these products from? I dont see them at rose or truss....

 

You can get it from canzoomer i'm not sure about the short shifter though but maurice can get a lot of things from mazdaspeed japan. If not Chuck at rotaryextremem can import just about anything. It's not cheap though.

 

Canzoomer is the go on those. Cortc, let me know what all these like. I am interested in the short shift and the brake and clutch lines.

Thanks cortc u are the champ on MS parts

 

mmmmmmm...MS Gauge Pod...definitely on my list...and you can get the brake and clutch lines from JapanParts.com as well...and, cortc, where did you get the short shifter?

 

Well the MS clutch line improves clutch modulation and feel and with the flywheel should really make a difference... As for the brake lines I just installed last weekend; what a difference, very solid pedal feel...

Just received confirmation from Maurice at Canzoomer that the parts will be here by Sept 30th... The under brace will be here within a week or two; that should stiffen things up nice...

 

On a sesame seed bun...

 

Ha,

one bed room apartment 1000 sq feet $1400 per month. and thats a good deal here in Santa Barbara.

 

and yes.. I really want that short shifter. Tell us how it feels when in.. My arms are very long and i have to tweak my wrist a bit to shift. if my hand sat even 1 inch lower I would be happy.

Good luck with the installs.

Ohh and its very obvious why you want that braided clutch line. That's going on my car ASAP.

 

thew: You have the OEM RCA input? How does that work?

 

great. but its only really working as a long RCA cable.. untill we can get our hands on a JDM t.v. tuner. here read the DIY here https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-do-yourself-forum-73/diy-mazda-oem-rca-input-install-35676/

it shows the install.. btw i have one more if anyone wants to to buy it. $130.00 ..

p.s. where did you get the shifter ? and did you also change your upper cross brace to the CF or racing beat one.. or did you just leave the OEM brace.

 

I'm getting ready to order:

RX-8 Front Shocks (2) QSEA-34-700
RX-8 Rear Shocks (2) QSEA-28-700
RX-8 Front Sway Bar QSEA-34-151
RX-8 Rear Sway Bar QSEA-28-151
RX-8 Rear Sway Bar End Link (2) F151-28-170
RX-8 Lowering Sport Springs Set of (4) QSEA-34-01Z

I was wondering why Mazda calls the sway bars "Stabalizer Bars"? They list this part number for sway bars which is different from above: GRMS-8M-K07.

And what about these: RAMS-8M-K01 Coil Over Suspension?? Any comments cortc?

 

I think the RAMS-8M-K01 is the beat all of suspension parts.. there pricey but i would love the ability to adjust on the fly.

Anyone running these yet ?

 

I have not found a price on the coil over's, and T'ville cannot either. Any ideas?

 

yea i saw them i think on vivids sight maybe?

 

my bad.. this is what i am looking at..

JIC FLTA2 Coilovers RX8 04+ Coilovers

http://store.vividracing.com/catalog...400df533e9dfcb

Model: RX8FLTA2 $1,599.99
JIC’s r flagship coilover setup. The FLT-A2 features a light weight, 15 way adjustable monotube damper that ensures high strength and fade free performance. The ride height is adjustable separate from the spring perch giving you maximum suspension travel at any setting. This also allows for proper corner weighting of the vehicle without effecting spring preload settings.

 

I ordered the shifter from Canzoomer; he gets them pretty quick and has decent pricing...

 

Interest = All of the above... of course! :D

Cort, what'd you pay for that short shifter?
