I was in similar situation as you. The RX-8 was good car until all the gremlims started to pop up. I let it go before any serious problems started to appear. Just not enough aftermarket support for that car. Any bolt-on aside from FI made very little gains over stock. I really liked the 8 when it was new, but around 20k miles it would be at the dealer for one problem after another. There was a span of 2 weeks where I was in the shop 4 different times for the same problem (SSV solenoid valve) before they replaced it. Horrible service rep, worst dealer I've ever dealt with.
