  • I replaced my old and blown JIC Magic coilovers with some new Tein Flex Z Coilovers that I picked up for $800 and I am very happy with the quality and fitment of them especially for the price. With help from my buddy Chris, we got all 4 of them installed in under 3 hours with no problems.
    I will be doing a review of these coilovers in a later video for sure and may adjust the ride height as well after it settles.
    As for the front bumper: it will be getting professionally fixed and painted soon so I don't wanna see anything about it in the comments :)
    I hope you guys enjoyed the video, subscribe for future videos of this car!

    Get the compression test. If compression is good then you should go for it. Make sure you use premix. Idemitsu preferably. 100:1. Bout 6 oz per fill up. 93 octane. Redline once every drive cycle. Oil change every 3k miles. Use quality stuff. I do royal purple. And regular maintenance and you should be happy. If possible do a decat midpipe with exhaust and you could shoot flames. Love my 8.

      Jonathan Torres nah do it but check the mileage on it so you know roughly how worn the engine is, I got my rx 8 when I was 17

      that's just cause it hasn't been driven in over a month, so it gets that thin layer of fine rust that comes off the first time the brakes are used
