2008 Maxda Rx8 - 192bhp

The car has just over 37,170 miles on the clock, but this will go up slowly. As my wife uses the car for work.

And I have known the car from new and the mileage is genuine. It's what happens when a car spends most of its life in London and you get the tube everywhere !

It has the upgraded Bose sound system and suede interior. It also comes with private Licence plate which appears to be £799 to buy from the dvla

The car has full dealer history which is online and therefore cannot be forged, it does come with some paper invoices for other work done. and recently has had new brakes and two rear tyres.

MOT: till Nov 2016

Recent work undertaken is:

- It is currently booked in for the Mazda Recall for the drivers Air Bag to be replaced
- Rear Brake Discs and Pads changed recently
- Rear tyres not long ago

- Two New Rear Suspension Springs
- New Rear Damper on Drivers side

- Alignment checked at Bram Racing and Invoice will be provided
- I will be changing the oil and filter ready for the new owner.

It has the odd mark around it, and sadly there is a tiny bit of rust around the boot brake light and the stereo head unit display is a little unclear but these are really common Rx8 niggles.

It really is in fab condition though and First to see will buy !

£2350 ono

[Greddy E-01 Boost Controller]

Greedy E0-1 Boost Controller

Greddy E-01 Boost Controller

Boost controller that worked fine in the car with no issues. The screen does light up and doesnt have any dead pixels on it, unlike most of the ones that have been on ebay.

The Boost Controller is really trick with its screen and works really nicely.

The Remote is present and also working. It comes with the Holder so you can stick it to your dash or what ever you fancy.

Includes Mount for the remote as well which often get lost

Includes a brand new power lead that i have shipped in from the states so its good to go !

If you want to combine and think this with the Greddy Emanage ECU, i also have one of those forsale. could do a deal on both.

----------

PRICE: Combined cheaper price for both is £170 de\'d for this trick bit of kit.









PHOTOS FROM GOOGLE THAT SHOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN TURNED ON. THIS IS NOT MY UNIT. i CAN GET PHOTOS IF IT WORKING IF REQUIRED.

no worries .. *blush*

Have fun !

No fella
 
all the brakes remain completely in tact all your doing is putting a valve in the middle of the pipe. If you stamp on the brakes all the wheels work the same.
 
However if you pull the hydro just the back brakes lock up
 
(altho the best way to make the back wheels lock is to press the foot pedal alittle to prime the brakes and then pull the hydro)
 
Have a look here for some more info

dont touch the cable hand brake.
 
Its up to you really, some people will advise removing the abs..some wont.
 
On ours we just removed the abs fuse as we wanted to keep the abs. If i remember correctly there is one pipe going from the front of the car and t-piecing at the back. Just un do it at the back, bring it into the car and plub it into the hydro. Then make a new pipe from the hydro the rear t-piece.
 
Done ! Did it to my BMW e36 and my bros Rx7 FD.. was pretty easy to be honest.
 

they are good, we have used them for years BUT. they have a maximum payout. check the small print

this is interesting...would be good to know what the maximum payout is guys?

what the !
 
I wonder what they\'ll say to Single turbo FD...only for social use. Cant wait till feb !

Sorted,
 
Glad we all helped, its usually summat simple

Make sure the wire is intact and has a good connection on the sensor. If there is a break in the wire the buzzer will be sounding.

I had this problem recently.
 
If you put your arm down the side of the engine (as if to take out the spark plugs)
 
there is a wire on the left (towards the front of the car) the connection on mine broke off and after 5seconds of running the buzzer would go off.
 
I\'d have a look for a loose wire

well im 25 in feb, so i think i\'ll be calling them then !

picture looks like its off an e34?? so its 5x120...which aint going to fit.
 
£600 is a good price? your could buy some rotas for that !

cheers for the advce guys, i\'ll do digging this winter and see if the specialists will sell me some of the parts i need etc

Cheers Jit,

i appreciate the contact details.

Not sure what the hell happened with my previous posts

Cheers prof,

I cant see me needing the PTS ones because i don’t ever intend to run silly boost etc. When i go single turbo i’ll only ever be after 380 at the fly..maybe wheels if i get greedy. Also unsure about the Hurley ones, i read on atkins that they are softer than standard which is why they bend rather than break. BUT i know that is a biased view...hence planned on going for mazda apex seals

I have both dvd’s and i think bruce is the man and by far the better teacher.

I can keep drifting the beamer for now (although using it as a daily too aint fun :p ) and just rebuild the engine over winter.

The kid in me says get playing ! the adult in me says be sensible...
