Thoroughly enjoyed watching the footage - Thanks for sharing

One of my biggest regrets following 2.5 years ownership was not taking the mine to the ring

Please feel free to put my post down to my paranoia kicking in or simply just bad feelings in my water

All points taken. Agreed re enough said

I was reluctant to post here as very much aware of the hostility or apparent ignoring sometimes shown to exmembers, (however loyal to club or car in the past). - Sorry I missed this run, on hol's but now fully aware the RX-8 is well and truly gone despite nearly 3 years of happy ownership. Glad a ...

No problem I keep polish in one side of the boot and my dodgy gear in the other side.

Thanks for letting me tag along in my alternative vehicle

Just pm'd BW wont make the RV /start but may meet at a south RV on the way or final destination - please remember I may be heading towards ina spirited manner at some point in my germanic chelsea tractor.

Only just got back from trip to Suffolk and back with family following 1 day off in 16 days so not fully charged.

To get to RVP on time would mean 4.30 wake and 5am start as I live south of the final destination !

I doubt I will be able to make this at the off now , however, I may just be able ...

Might be tempted to tag along in my chelsea tractor.

Maybe review this nearer the time as last breakfast club run with BW and crew was 2005.

Ok you are more of a spotter than I am

on relocation relocaton last night on chnnel 4, (24/1), someone from on here named Andrea with a hubbie named ady who had an Alfa 147. Titanium RX-8 outside their new pad in Lancs.

I appreciate the desireability of special editions and also that handling ehancements are more important than power. Despite this the lack of a power increase is the major critcism from harder core journos re the pz ( which I seriously admire), which costs more than the std 230 to insure.

I would ...

Mazda used to do a "sports" exhaust for the RX-8.

Made by a geman company possibly sebring can't remember. It is not notably nosier by any standards and no boasted hp increase so keeps the insurance company happy as it's not a performance accesory and is alos an officail option for the car. It is ...

Seems strange to me that some of you are claiming the standard one is uncomfy, the illuminated one i have on currently is lovely, trouble is it keeps on doing a kylie minogue on me, spinning around and all that.

Ralphie- thats the second replacement (both by nyetimber mazda due to illumination ...

At time of typing this I am working - lovely day for it

Would have loved to have tagged along for this one which looks like being one of the best runs of the year in light of the route and what is planned at Goodwood. It would probably have been my last RX-8 meet if I hadn't sold the car by then but in any case I am working extra hours that day leaving ...

I have now added details of the PZ. In the abscence of further feedback can we agree to put a sticky on this one or otherwise store it for reference and prosperity for the benefit of new forum users.

This guide is my legacy to the club as my 2003 RX-8 230 now sold

Thanks. It occured to me today that I had omitted the black tan - your wish is granted.


Piege,

Thanks but I did cover/mention the differences between 190/230 specs. I also gave a link to the mazda website :!: I have edited this section to make it clearer. I mentioned imports briefly ...

Replacement bumpers from japan apparently available primed only (despite stacks of prepainted ones on the assembly line. I would advise r to compare a matching sample template before authorisation. As well as paint match it's also difficult to replicate magnetical charging of particles in the mica ...

Sorry to hear of this.

Blunt but honest answer is - No.

If down to metal and you want repair to be invisible needs respray.

You will all be pleased to know that the price of oil has plumetted over the last year or so. How do I know? Essex Mazda in Southend managed a £32 discount for my first service for supplying my own oil (Oilman's best), but ringing up for a price today for a second service, first it was a £10 ...

Are you selling signed copies?

Oh well - worth a try. Id want uk instructions for that price but I'm unaware of anyone else that supplies them if you have help then that's good.

Baz,

The staff there can type in english as I have queried parts before with them by email.

:idea: Tell them you are considering another set up but will buy if they tranlsate instructions into UK text for you.

:idea: BTW I heard that someone once recieved some non taxable free goods from abroad ...
