ARD Advanced Power Starter Motor for Mazda RX8 (Series 1 & 2, 2003-2012)

Improve cold starts and reliability with a higher-torque starter motor that cranks faster, reducing stress on the battery and making life easier in cold weather.

$390

A slow-cranking starter is a well-known contributor to flooding issues in Mazda RX8 Series 1 & Series 2 models (2003–2012), and this ARD Advanced Power Starter Motor is a Japanese-built unit that delivers significantly stronger, faster cranking performance than even the desirable OEM Series 2 starter. ARD’s OEM-supplier background matters here because a starter motor needs to deliver consistent real-world reliability, not just theoretical output.

  • Outstanding starting power and high rotational speed help reduce the risk of flooding
  • Output that exceeds the OEM Series 2 starter motor gives owners a genuine step up over the best factory option
  • Brand new Japanese-made unit means this is not a remanufactured or reconditioned core
  • Manufactured by ARD, an OEM supplier to Mazda, Nissan and Mitsubishi to support high reliability and build quality

You will immediately notice faster, more eager engine turnover and more reliable hot and cold starts, dramatically reducing the chance of frustrating flood situations in everyday use.

For a more complete ignition and charging package, consider pairing this with R-MAGIC Power Coil Pack and ARD Advance High-Power 150A Alternator.
