Supercharged Mazdaspeed RX-8
Motor Trend is exactly a year behind the times. But thanks to all those who wrote in about the article. In MT's March 2004 issue, they report that there will be a supercharged RENESIS in the Mazdaspeed version of the RX-8. We, at RotaryNews.com first speculated about a boosted version of the RX-8 a year ago... exactly, In our popular "Predictions and Speculation" story!
We also revisited the issue again just before the Tokyo Autoshow... Giving the idea of a Supercharged Mazdaspeed RX-8 a 3 out of 5 star chance of appearing at the show. We wonder if Motor Trend reads this site?
But, what it means when it is printed in Motor Trend is that the program is fairly far along, far enough along that they allowed them to print it... Given past history as a guide, I'd say we are looking for it a debut in 8-12 months (SEMA?), and 14-18 months from now before it is available at your local Mazdaspeed dealer.

Too early to get excited. I can tell you though, If and when an s/c mazdaspeed rx8 comes out, I will be at dealer trading mine in INSTANTLY without hesitation. I hope it works out.

This is so against the tradition of MazdaSpeed. Are you sure it is "rumoured" from MazdaSpeed Japan or it is a s/c from Knight Sport or Blitz. It is certainly not the A and B spec coz I think they have set them concrete. Maybe the R spec. It is so weird that they go for the R spec within 2 years of production. FD3S R spec was not out for so long ago.
Even so if s/c MazdaSpeed ever come. You can guarantee that you can buy component to mod your car. So you don't need to sell them.
I love s/c - they will be cleaner. Excellent news anyhow
