Arby's new car :D

2004 Mazda RX-8.

Non standard stereo is going to be difficult to replace, I'll just have to be creative.







1.3L, 238HP, 6 speed. $29.5k. Very happy so far.

I'll plan for a while and then time for some modding.

Oops, wrong general discussion. Move to off topic?

I need to start hanging around more and get back into the mp3car scene.

Hehe, looks like you'd fit a PS1 screen into that nicely

Engine died on the eclipse. I stripped the stuff out of it and donated the car. The lcd has been sold, I still have the stereo stuff and the console.

Did it really have that many miles on it?

Eclipse had 100k on it. Too much autocrossing

It was going to cost much more than the car was worth to get it running again.

Atleast your replacement was an upgrade.

Gotta love those spinning triangles

Arby, it's good to see another rotary owner on the forum

Here's a pic of my RX-7 next to my friend's rx-8:
