Fresh in from Japan, we have two sets of these gorgeous Cusco Strut Braces in stock and ready to fit for the Rotary JDM show next week.

As fitted to our own Race Car the front Cusco Strut bar incorporates an effective brake master cylinder stopper to help pedal feel tremendously.

Just slapped a coat of paint on these, literally!
As previously advertised. not asking top dollar as i got these for peanuts. Price covers a bit if my time and materials.
Process -
Wire wheeled, drilled out and drained, degreased, filled with polyurethane, rust converter applied, and finally a...

After buying an R3, bought Ryan rotary coils instead of the D585's already fitted. They've done less than 10K miles and look in good condition. Includes coils, bracket, screws/bolts and HT leads. Bracket fits over the OEM bracket. Car ran fine without the dwell changed as I spoke to previous owner....

Hello All

recently I 've found my AC isn't cold (as the outside temp is slowly climbing) but using a pressure gauge on the low side shows I have 22 psi in there?
do the pressure switches on these fail?
I've got a high side gauge on order so I can check compressor performance ( and the high side...

Hello to the RX8 gearbox experts,

In 2009 there was a new 6 speed manual gearbox introduced which looks very like the 6MT gearbox in the mx5 nc, but with a different bellhousing.

As an Mx5 owner, we have a known gearbox problem with the rear bearing housing breaking and destroying the gearbox for...

So i thought i'd better do a bit of an update to my service's, As things have been dropping off with sales on parts and cars plus they are getting harder to buy at a cost to still make a profit. I've started a part time job which might end up full time in the near future, so this will become just a...

I know we are all fairly familia with the big hitters as far as parts for the RX8 is concerned, but has anyone put together a list of suppliers or links to sites for parts and suppliers, not thinking so much as a what's good, what's bad, more of a I got this part from here and it fitted and worked...

They are just a normal “modern” car. I’ve been daily driving it since March and parked it up the beginning of December. I wondered if she was going to start…but started fine, stone cold. Couldn’t have done that with the Triumph! I’ve stopped myself putting cold-weather tyres on her so I am forced...

I've driven this awesome track 3 times now =D>

This Open Pit Lane event will be managed via Circuit Days, who will be in attendance on the day. It is restricted to 72 cars, so there should be very little queuing to get onto this long circuit.

Are you a newcomer to trackdays? As on all trackdays,...

This is undoubtedly quite an honour for the RX-8 in such prestigious company. =D>

10 performance cars owners regretted buying!

I will say I am not one of those owners! =;

So, I noticed the leather gaiter on my R3 had a hole. A new one was ordered from The Tuning Shop for the princely sum of £9.99.
I chose the version with black stitching to match the original, but they supply other colours of stitching if that's your preference.

After removing the gearknob...

I hope you gents won’t mind my giving few pointers regarding removing the RX8 engine.

There is a myriad of pipes and electrical connectors and would recommend, aside from...

Don't suppose anyone has a ELM327 dongle that has the automatic, electronic HS/MS switching function rather than a mechanical version that I could borrow for a test?

I know you can pick them up for relative inexpense but I would rather pay a couple of quid for shipping and buy a member a beer than...

Just a quick shout out, and it’s rather last minute.
There will be a few of us attending caffeine and Machine at 4pm on Saturday. There always a nice selection of cars here and even some exotics (but let’s be honest most people are more interested in the japscrap !)
We will probably end up...

Hi Everyone!

Due to some technical... shenanigans... with Facebook, the official RX8 Owner's Club Facebook page has had to have - hilarious as it is - a full rebuild! Worry not, we've taken the opportunity to bridgeport it, lighten and balance the rotating assembly and we've even changed the...

There are various reasons why the RX8 can fail the MOT emissions tests.

Decat, missing cat core (poor man's decat) or failed cat.
Your car can't pass the MOT emissions test without a fully working cat.
The original cat is a massive beast and very good at its job, until something kills it, like...

I had been conversing with fergus by email for a little while. I had originally approached him about getting my tracking done after seeing NewDuke (I think) had been very complimentary.

Hi there,

I would really like to install some bucket-seats in my 8 using the planted seat brackets. Is there a place that you can recommend where they do not cost a fortune, as I will also have to pay duties when importing them to Germany (where I live) the prices I found are rather hefty for...

Came across a new to me channel on Youtube called Throtl. They overhaul cars and give then away as well as having many shiny toys in the garage in california.

I thought i would have a scan through past builds and sure enough an 8 min time lapse of them doing an RX8 2 years ago.

Some intresting...

I thought this news item might be of some interest:

Has anyone seen my old PZ around at all, or is the current owner on here. I notice the chap who bought it from me has not been active since 2018. The reg is ST56 FFZ, sold by me to a guy from Kings Lyn area i believe?

So a lot of you face the challenge what to do with old holes that remain once we remove the lip.

My advice is to use Epoxy with some glass fiber instead of welding them in as:
Epoxy if properly applied will outlive the trunk (and will prevent corrosion underneath it)
Can be done...

Hey Peeps,

If anyone wants quicker acceleration in 3/4/5 gears id recommend the r3 gearbox, its given me the biggest performance increase
