R-MAGIC 6-Speed NC Nylon Shift Collar for Mazda RX8 (Series 1, 2003-2008) R-MAGIC 6-Speed NC Nylon Shift Collar for Mazda RX8 (Series 1, 2003-2008)

I stopped by the Rmagic shop when I visited Japan in January. I purchased the Shift ****, and the Shift "color" (what was probably meant to be collar). I have not seen any specific threads on this or installs or how it fits, so I did not know what to expect. So in case anyone was wondering how it fits or what it does... In conclusion. - It will not work with the Axial Flow short throw shifter. - It will not work with the Rmagic short throw shifter. (this was stated in the product description on japanparts) - It will work with the stock shifter. - It does not snap onto the shifter like the stock collars do. - It does feel good with the stock shifter, but not as good as the axial flow. - It cost me 3,000 - Their Shop is super cool.

AUTOEXE Premium Cat-Back Exhaust Muffler for Mazda RX8 (Series 1 & 2, 2003-2012) AUTOEXE Premium Cat-Back Exhaust Muffler for Mazda RX8 (Series 1 & 2, 2003-2012)

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.

RE-AMEMIYA Additional RHS Oil Cooler for Mazda RX8 (Series 1, 2003-2008) RE-AMEMIYA Additional RHS Oil Cooler for Mazda RX8 (Series 1, 2003-2008)

I have the oil cooler fitted recently Jarl, with a MazdaSpeed (RHS) oil cooler Try to get the MazdaSpeed or the US, Hong Kong or Japan spare parts. I suspect they are different but what the hell it is still an oil cooler. Japan does not have oil cooler in the Type S as standard but most people will have that as option. Certainly they mostly opted for the MazdaSpeed version of the oil cooler (btw it looks the same as the other one I have now ) There are many oil cooler available as an aftermarkey option, such as HKS and Fujita engineering, just to name two. They are very pricey and go over the $1000 mark. So I choose the $600 MazdaSpeed one instead. What you need is a garage, really. I will recommend changing oil and oil filter at the same time. It does mean a cleaner job. Make sure you take care of the joints and prepare for an oil leak (did have some on my installation). The right oil cooler gets the first of the oil from the central (engine) side and they travel to the left (stock) one before going back to central. There is a bass tube (as shown in the attachement above) to connect the right to the left oil cooler. Get a quote for $300 installation since it will take someone 6 hours to do (inc changing oil). Make sure they run the car for 10 minutes before putting the front bumper back up, just to see if there are still leaks. Result is amazing, central console is not hot anymore, well... it is cooler than what it has been. Say the temp in the cup holder used to be like the upper tray of the coffee machine (the area that warms the cup). Now it is like the keyboard of your laptop, still warm but certainly the house key I put in the cup holder will not burn my finger anymore. MazdaSpeed oil cooler is race proven. In BestMotoring, people raced for 20 minutes in the heat, MazdaSpeed oil cooler has a oil temp of 100 degree cel, but the S2K and Integra are running at 130 degree plus.

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.

What a carbon-colour finish actually contributes

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.

Planning your Mazda RX8 carbon colour theme

  • First, identify the dominant existing finish in your cabin or exterior. Carbon-colour works with both lighter and darker surrounds. However, knowing which you have makes selection faster.
  • Also, check each individual product listing for its stated material and finish. Carbon colour describes a visual treatment. It may be applied to plastic, aluminium or composite substrates depending on the part.
  • In addition, consider pieces that share a visible sightline. Door inserts, the centre console area and steering column trim are all seen together. Therefore, consistency there has more impact than isolated changes.
  • Finally, exterior carbon-colour elements pair well with darker wheel finishes. A factory Winning Blue or Titanium Grey body colour also works well. As a result, contrast stays controlled rather than competing.

Build with finish in mind, not finish as an afterthought

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'carbon colour' actually mean for RX8 parts u2014 is it real carbon fibre?

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.

Which RX8 interior areas benefit most from switching to a carbon colour finish?

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.

Does a carbon colour finish work with the factory RX8 interior trim, or does the whole cabin need to be re-trimmed first?

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.

Which RX8 exterior body colours pair well with carbon colour exterior parts?

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.

Can I mix carbon colour parts with silver or body-coloured OEM trim on my RX8?

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.

Do all the carbon colour parts in this range fit both Series 1 and Series 2 RX8 models?

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.

How do I plan a carbon colour theme across my RX8 build without ending up with mismatched finishes?

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.
