OHLINS MAS-MI00S1 Road & Track Coilover Suspension for Mazda RX8 (Series 1 & 2, 2003-2012)
if you want it to handle the best possible on the street without it being harsh it's the way to go. It or Bilstein are the only thing I recommend for coil-overs other than pure race shocks. The B16/PSS9 is the only other one I'd recommend, but if you can afford it the nod goes to hlins.
BADBEE's motor is all back in place and finally able to fit the AutoEXE engine bay brace Yes they come is racing red however I had this one customised ( ) in gloss black so it matched my vacc tank and hides it away Thanks RX8 Upgrades for more epic AutoEXE bits
More cool parts from https://rx8upgrades.com.au/ for the project car number two 🙌🏻 KTS coilovers front and rear AutoEXE two piece rotors front and rear with AutoExe pads Project PMU braided lines in charcoal Raypower 20mm bolt on spacers Fully rebuilt calipers with new pistons One corner done three more to go 🤙🏻 Thanks RX8 Upgrades nothing but the best forget the rest 🏁
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
Great fitment, and quality, only let down is the plastic drain bung, make sure you get a replacement before installing it
AUTOEXE Motion Control Beam Front and Rear for Mazda RX8 (Series 2, 2009-2012)
Night and day difference, even on a bone stock suspension. While installing the AutoExe front strut bar greatly enhanced steering response and turn in, the handling improvements from it was very subtle. Likewise with the AutoExe tie bars installed in the front and back of the car. More solid feel, less suspension parts deflection under cornering loads. These Motion Control Beams took away the vibrations that are slightly felt in the steering wheel from small road surface imperfections. It also took away the bumps felt from pavement gaps and mostly the rumble felt from railway crossings and brick roads. Going through small pot holes and road patches, the stock suspension is finally doing its job to dampen away those bumps and doesn't get fully transmitted throughout the entire car. Big bumps, you don't hear a loud hollow "thump" emanating from the back of the car. Just a solid "thud". The car used to understeer and now it hardly does. It handles quite neutral now, even on bone stock open differential, and did I already say bone stock suspension? This is win win, all around, without sacrificing anything.
A Mazda RX8 carbon colour finish does specific work in a build. It adds depth against lighter cabin materials. It also creates considered contrast alongside silver or body-coloured trim. The tone signals a more focused, purposeful direction. Because of that, it does not require a full respray or re-trim. The parts listed here share that darker, technical finish. As a result, cross-referencing across a build as it evolves becomes straightforward.
Carbon as a colour sits between a pure gloss black and a woven-fibre look. It is darker than most factory interior trim. Moreover, the visual texture reads as intentional rather than incidental. Where silver or body-coloured OEM details can look dated on a modified RX8, a carbon colour replacement tends to read as part of a plan.
The benefit is most obvious in the cabin. Repeated small details accumulate into a coherent finish. For example, a gear surround here and a trim insert there combine into something that feels planned rather than assembled from separate decisions.
For those sourcing Mazda RX8 carbon colour parts Australia-wide, this range narrows the search to listed carbon-colour finishes in one place. It saves the time of filtering across multiple categories. However, Australian buyers should confirm fitment and finish details on each individual product page. Material and application method vary between items. For official Mazda information and service support, the Mazda Australia website is the authoritative reference.
The strongest results come from treating colour and finish as part of the build specification from the start. Therefore, choose Mazda RX8 carbon colour details that reinforce what the rest of the car is doing. Browse the range and cross-reference against your existing trim and exterior colour. Then use the individual listings for confirmed specifications before ordering.
Carbon colour describes a visual finish that replicates the dark, textured look of carbon fibre rather than the woven composite material itself. Individual parts in this range may be made from plastic, aluminium or composite substrates with a carbon-look treatment applied. Check each product listing for the stated material before ordering.
The highest-impact areas are those seen together in a single sightline: the centre console surround, gear selector area, door trim inserts and steering column trim. Consistency across these visible zones creates a planned, cohesive look rather than a collection of unrelated changes.
Carbon colour sits darker than most factory RX8 interior trim and adds depth against lighter cabin materials, so it works without a full re-trim. It is designed to be introduced progressively, letting you build a consistent theme across individual parts over time.
Darker factory colours such as Winning Blue and Titanium Grey work particularly well, keeping contrast controlled rather than competing. Carbon colour exterior elements also pair naturally with darker wheel finishes to maintain a unified, purposeful appearance.
Yes. Carbon colour creates a deliberate contrast against silver or body-coloured OEM details, and that contrast is part of its appeal. Where factory silver trim can look dated on a modified RX8, a carbon colour replacement tends to read as an intentional styling decision rather than a mismatch.
Fitment varies between individual products in the range. Always confirm compatibility on each product's own listing page before ordering, as some parts are specific to one series.
Start by identifying the dominant existing finish in your cabin or on your exterior, then prioritise parts that share a visible sightline so the changes accumulate into something coherent. Cross-reference the material and finish details on each individual listing, since carbon colour can be applied differently depending on the part and substrate.
