-SOLD- 2005 Black RX-8

Year: 2005
Make: Mazda
Model: RX-8
Price: $5000
Mileage: 155000
Color: Black
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (US State/Canada/Int): TX

This is a preliminary post for my RX-8. I got her up and running again with a Mazda reman and the engine has about 10k miles on it. I will be using the Idimitsu 10w-30 rotary oil in the crankcase at the next oil change. The break-in oil is Castrol GTX 10w30 with an oil change within the first 1k miles, then at 5k miles, and again at 10k miles. She consumes oil at a normal rate (add a little every 3rd gas fillup).

Items functioning well
  • A/C
  • Engine
  • Interior
  • Speakers, Radio, and CD Player
  • Suspension
  • Tires
  • Headlights / taillights

Recently replaced items
  • Engine with Mazda Reman
  • External engine seal kit (intake manifold, exhaust manifold, etc)
  • Clutch (Exedy stock replacement)(No chatter, normal weight, but brisk lock-up...perfect)
  • Throwout bearing
  • Manifold to Cat and cat to muffler gaskets
  • Coils
  • Spark Plugs
  • Radiator
  • Radiator fans

Items to get back to fully functional stock
  • Keyless entry module
  • Evaporative emissions solenoid (cause of check engine light)
  • Motor mounts
  • Paint
  • Sun visors
  • headlight wiring harness (high and low beam are functional though and have passed many inspections)

I tried deleting the thread but can find the delete thread in edit on the first post. I can see a delete message on my first reply, but not in thread starter.
