New Updated Starter for $175
Someone on Ebay has 9 Updated Starters for sale for $175 with free shipping. I just ordered one and wanted to pass the word on. Here's the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mazda...item35a7fa71c3

Yeah man, I saw it and couldn't pass it up. I had been looking for a updated version for a while but just couldn't shell out the $360 for it from Mazda. After I saw there were 9 available I thought someone on here would be interested.

dam.... remanufactured starters ? wtf !!!
good comment elysium .. don't think mazda will remanufacture a complicated starter such as for the RX8, i know Mazsport sells them for $375 plus shipping , if you go to the dealer it's $1000
Is it the updated version ?

It has the updated part number, but does say both new and reman in the posting. I sent the seller a message to help clarify whether it is new or reman. I'll post back once I hear a response.

Alright just got a message back from the seller. It is a new starter, not reman. They are going to fix the posting on ebay. To answer your question yes it is the updated starter, look at the part number on the posting it is the new version.

I say this and bought one right away, the seller emailed me shortly after and said that it is NOT a reman, it is in fact NEW. It was a mistake and the auction should be revised soon.... Let's hope it works!!

i think it's the same original and not the updated version, he's got 2 diferent part # allthough it is a starter for the RX8, he could of just slapped a label with the updated part #
N3Z1-18-400 = this number belongs to the regular starters installed by Mazda for 2004-08
N3H1-18-400R-0A = this is the updated starter that Mazda now replaces, it was originally installed on the 2009-10 rx8's. And this same starter was approved for all models 2004-10
The only way to find out is testing it !!! Don't mean to put nobody's hope down,
but if I'm wrong ?
Will someone vouch what I wrote is correct ?

my main concern is that the ebay seller posted 2 diferent part #'s allthough it is a starter for the RX8 , which one is he selling ?
Is he selling the Z version or the H version ?
Correct me if I'm wrong again ?
Thanks for not vouching ninjajim4 lol...

from the original tsb (which at the time covered up to '07), it seems to me that N3H1-18-400R-0A was the original updated starer. that part # was then later replaced by N3Z1-18-400, which is also the part # currently on finishline's website. both #s denote the update. correct me if i'm wrong

the 2009+ manual trans starter is N3R3-18-400
the latest revised version for manual trans S1 models is N3H2-18-400R-0B and is remanufactured
looks like N3H1-18-400A is still available and is new ...
