APEXi Electronic SMART Accelerator Controller with Harness for Mazda RX8 (Series 1 & 2, 2003-2012)
Boost 1 felt impressive indeed. Very easy to chirp the rears and get TRC active. This would probably be the all-round mode you could use every day. Lovely accelerator response and a positive feeling that the car is faster off the mark. Boost 2... where do I start? Perhaps with the black lines I've been leaving on my test track. This mode is absolutely ridiculous, and care should be taken when the car is in Sport mode and TRC turned off. You can easily get the car to light up the rears with the absolute minimum of effort. The first time I tested this I was genuinely surprised and had to tap the brakes and give out a sigh of shock. Amazing power delivery... it feels as though the car has been turbocharged and off the line performance is stellar. All in all, for around $250 delivered, this is one amazing piece of hardware. Overall rating: A++ Takes the sluggishness out of the IS to transform it into a spritely beast.
Finally have the chance to fit the RX8 Upgrades supplied AutoEXE brake rotors and pads to BADBEE On the weekend AutoEXE lines will be fitted to the front This is just the beginning I still have the rears to do but looking forward to feeling the braking difference once all is complete
Finally had some time to fit the AutoEXE booster brace kit to BADBEE from RX8 Upgrades Just in time for a Lakeside Raceway event next Saturday 💪🏻 Yes the interior part of the kit is fitted I'm just not bendy enough to get a clear photo 😂 Mint 👌🏻
HASEPRO MAKE MAGICAL STUFF!
Just installed my spanking new Autoexe Stainless Muffler, and here's a short take of my initial impressions: The Autoexe catback is lovely - very unique 2 box design and the tips are the tapered kind (ie cut at an angle) each lasercut with the Autoexe logo. Very nicely polished midpipe which connects beautifully (and easily) with the exhaust outlet. Most importantly, the exhaust tips have a perfect visual alignment, unlike other exhausts i've seen where one tip protrudes out more than the other. The Autoexe definitely doesn't have this problem. Also, the 2 box design has a lower profile than stock. Previously, i used to scrape and even dent the exhaust box when clearing humps or even parking - not so with the Autoexe. The Autoexe performs really well, at least on my AT. There is a noticable increase in low end torque, and the car just feels substantially lighter. Revs are much more responsive, and the slight lag felt when launching the car seems to have melted away. Linear acceleration is also much faster (at least across 1st 3 gears), and i'm reaching 120-130kmh much faster on 2nd gear alone (NB mine is the 4spd AT). I'm very pleased with the low-torque gains on the Autoexe - finally i have that slight 'lurch' from start which the manuals seem to have, but the ATs don't. The Autoexe starts off idle with a really low, bassy growl. When first installed, it was barely audible, but sounds louder now. In time, the db will increase to an extent. On higher RPM revs, exhaust sounds deep and wet, and def not those shrilly Remus' we hear on the expressways from time to time. Installation was a breeze, and took under an hour at Monster Garage at Ubi, who's the only authorized dealer in Singapore, so these guys know their stuff. The torque/hp improvement was a shocker esp on low end, esp when mine's an AT. I've heard of bros installing Fujitsubos and HKSs that have either no or negative benefit. In this respect, I'm mighty pleased with the Autoexe. Sound is not loud, but a soft low bassy growl when idle, which develops into a mature wet sound at higher revs.
Mazda RX8 aftermarket parts Australia owners can explore are available at RX8 Upgrades for maintenance, performance, styling and interior projects. Browse aftermarket and genuine OEM options when replacing a tired component, improving a specific area of the car or refining the overall presentation of your build. Start with the system you are working on, compare the available parts and select options that suit your RX8 and its intended use.
The catalogue is organised around the areas owners commonly update: performance, genuine OEM, styling and interior. This makes it easier to move from a maintenance or replacement job into related upgrades, whether your focus is cooling and reliability, intake and exhaust, suspension and braking, exterior presentation or a cabin refresh. Browse the relevant category to narrow your search to the parts that support the direction of your RX8.
RX8 performance upgrades should suit the purpose of the car rather than chase a one-size-fits-all result. The right components can improve response, control, cooling, consistency, sound or driving feel, depending on the system being updated. Consider how each part works with the rest of your setup and choose upgrades that make sense for your ownership goals.
For components where factory fit, calibration and known-condition reliability matter, a new genuine OEM part is a practical alternative to a used item with an unknown history. Genuine parts help retain the intended fit and function, making them a sensible choice for restoration-minded owners and for reliable replacement work.
Check fitment carefully before ordering, particularly when comparing Series 1 and Series 2 cars. Parts can be specific to a particular version, system or configuration, so confirm the product information against your vehicle before making a final choice. If you are unsure which option applies to your car, seek fitment advice before ordering rather than assuming parts interchange.
