Hi all,

Just wondering how many of you daily drive your RX8s?
It’s been my only car since getting it in April, but it’s spending a whole lot of time stuck off the road and it’s getting frustrating…

Curious as to what sort of setups others have. Swapped from a 35k nearly-new car to the RX8 as we...

Hi, just thought I'd introduce myself and beg forgiveness.

I've had an FD RX7 since 2012, a great car but been stood unused for 4 years so I've agreed a trade-in for an RX8. Now the forgiveness part, I'm afraid the heart of the RX8 has been swapped for a V8. It will be a road and track day car and...

I'm an aspiring mechanic, but that can be difficult while navigating my autism. I'm enthusiastic about learning, but it can be challenging for me even with videos. I know I'm going to overexplain because I'm really scared I'll leave something important out. Please be kind, I already feel really...

Hi Guys,

Based on the popularity of the various drive out events through the year, I'm looking at organising a Cotswold Drive for 2025 (literally for no other reason than it rhymes!).

As the thread title suggests, I'm just trying to gather some semblance of interest at this point, as well as...

Hi,

Hi all,

Although the best way to change the oil in an Rx8 is a subject already treated, it is always in the air to extract the oil from the coolers.

The method of tilting the car left and right helps to extract the oil remaining in the ducts, but it does not manage to eliminate the liter of oil...

I intend on overhauling my car's suspension.

Coilovers seem to be a popular option. But while I enjoy a spirited drive now and then, the car will probably never find itself on a track. I feel a set of coilovers might be overkill for fast road use and that it will kill the delicate balance Mazda...

Good day.
Am i correct stating that the clutch pedals are same in all RX8's?
I have a creaking clattering clapping noise in my clutch pedal and i have a brand new S1 one which i plan to fit and i am only 99% sure they are same.
Can somebody clarify the rest of the 1%?

Thanks🙂

Does anyone know the part number for the OEM 6 speed gear knob with the white jewel with black text?

I’ve found the part number for the black jewel one, but can’t find for the white version. The black version appears to have part number: F157-46-030A

Also do these jewels come out the gear knobs?...

Feeling more and more frustrated with this car. :(
Just feel like more and more problems just show up all the time… had it since April, driven roughly 4000 miles, and spent over £1500 in essential repairs alone. (Not including 1k on undersealing, plus a couple hundred in servicing parts which I did...

Hey does anyone have a few wheel nuts?

I have a set of locking wheel nuts and would love to swap for 4 normal ones, or can just buy them.

Happy to buy a set or 4 (or even 3 because the car came with one in the glovebox for some reason lol)

As the title says peeps
I've found ever since converting mine to a sohn / remote oil feed setup the sump oil level gradually increases
I'm guessing this is fuel dilution ? so its quite slow about 0.5 ltr gained in 1400 miles -but I'm having to drain it out to avoid overfilling
