I have a 192 engine for sale with good compression figures, engine is still in the car atm so not quite ready to go. Starts hot/cold no problem the starter on the car is only spinning @179 rpm which just shows it's good.
Price £600 collected can be put on a pallet if you want to arrange that....

Hi guys,
I'm looking for a R3 diff.
Is anyone breaking one at the moment?

Good morning,

I am looking for a pair of RX8 automatic drive shafts/axles for an Mx5 upgrade. Would also buy rear hubs.

Anyone able to help. They are smooth shafts, not the “bumpy “ ones fitted to manual cars.

Thanks

Richardracer

Its a bit tatty and needs some work. The lower glass fibre section that R Magic add has split on the joint at each side but should be a simple repair.

Current price new in the states is c£700 therefore even as it is this is a bargain at £275

Hello,

New to the club but recently had my 231 lowered and The engine mounts replaced by a friend. So I’m looking to offload the original springs and mounts as I don’t need. The mounts need refurbishing If that’s anyone’s jam, though one is usable.

Cheers,
Josh

Hi all,

I just had a terrible result from a compression test (low 4’s across the board), so I’m on the hunt for a good compression replacement.

Easy question I’m sure most can answer...

What are the bolts that hold the headlight in place?

Anyone know where I could grab some today

Hi
I just wanted to ask before I buy. Does anyone know if the the cobra sport mz08 exhaust fits the series 2 RX8? On the eBay listing it says that it fits both series 1 and series 2 but that can’t be right can it?

Here’s the link to the listing:

Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Compression testing, see here:

After fitting an uprated fuel pump which was a drop in replacement for the original I've now got a serious fuel leak.
The leak is not from the tank, bot inspection hatches are clear of leaks, but it's coming from above the rear subframe on the left above the rearmost mounting Bush...?

The light went out in my Clarke Grit Blaster, which made it really difficult to see what you're doing.

Even when it was working, it shone as much in your face as on the job, so not the best design, plus the bulk of the 1½ diameter tube fitted in clips on the rear wall meant that it often got in...

Evening All,

So I got a spare hour to work on my Rex the other day and I decided to start pulling the door card liner off. Any way long story short what I didn’t realise was that it was holding the window regulator in place and the glass and the mechanisms went all over the place catching me...

Tin worm is becoming more of a concern for the lifespan of the RX-8 than anything else.

I sometimes suggest using silicone grease for various jobs on the car.

It's great for helping the intake hoses fit snugly and does the same job if you're replacing coolant hoses.
