The new oil pressure regulator from Essex Rotary is based on a modified Mazda regulator but is designed to run a higher maximum oil pressure. Bringing the standard pressure on a series 1 RX-8 from from a maximum of 80 psi and increasing it to around 110psi this increased oil pressure means that your series 1 engine will now run pressures much closer to that of the later series 2 RX-8 (R3)
This makes the Essex Rotary enhanced oil pressure regulator great for ported ad high revving applications, equally suited in a standard engine its a great upgrade for piece of mind.
The main advantage of the increased oil pressure would be to increase bearing protection over that of the standard 80psi found in the series 1.
In our experience we have removed oil pressure regulators from engines that have been running as low as 50-55 psi.

This Racing Beat oil system upgrade kit contains both the Racing Beat oil pressure regulator and the Racing Beat thermal bypass pellet.
Oil Pressure Regulator
The Racing Beat-manufactured Street High Performance Rear Oil Pressure Regulator for the RX-8 interchanges exactly with the stock rear oil pressure regulator on all 2004-2008 Renesis engines. It is designed to bypass at 90-95 PSI, making it well suited for street-ported Renesis engines and a piece of mind upgrade for normal rebuilds. As supplied by Mazda, the factory pressure regulator is intended to bypass at maximum nominal rate of 80 PSI
Thermal bypass pellet
The thermal bypass pellet is designed to replace the stock thermal pellet found in the front of all eccentric shafts from 1986 onward the stock pellet works like a thermostat restricting oil flow to parts of the engine when cold. however when they fail they generally fail in the closed position leading to permanently reduced oil flow this is not good for your engine. The Racing Beat bypass pellet removes this point of possible failure. The pellet replaces the stock unit and allows full oil flow from cold. So by using the Eccentric Shaft Thermal Bypass Pellet Replacement you will know the oil is reaching the parts it should at all times.
Please Note
The 2009-2011 RX-8 Renesis engine is not equipped with a rear pressure regulator. Nominal oil maximum oil pressure on this application is 110-115 PSI. We do not offer a regulator to increase the oil pressure on this application.

the Mazda RX-8 is well known for its high-revving rotary engine and well-balanced chassis. An overheating engine can result in a ruined track day or a damaged engine. A Mishimoto racing thermostat is the ideal upgrade for improved cooling reliability and efficiency. Mishimoto racing thermostats promote greater cooling efficiency by significantly decreasing high engine temperatures. Once the engine is fully warmed up, the Mishimoto low-temperature racing thermostat will open at a lower temperature (76°C) compared to standard thermostats (82°C). This allows coolant to flow through the engine sooner, thus reducing and maintaining cooler engine temperatures. As with all our products, this thermostat includes the Mishimoto lifetime warranty.
Ideal for all you track day nutters but equally at home on the street.
This is one of our optional upgrades during customer engine rebuilds.
Mishimoto Mazda RX-8 aluminium fan shroud kits will considerably improve engine cooling functions and the overall performance of your vehicle. All Mishimoto fan shrouds are significantly lighter than standard fan shrouds and are a direct OEM fit. A Mishimoto fan shroud will effectively drive heat out of the engine bay and deliver a significant amount of cool air to your RX-8 radiator. The fan shroud also serves another very important purpose: securing the fan blades. The fan shroud will keep the fan blades in place, which otherwise could potentially damage other essential components in your engine.
All Mishimoto aluminium fan shrouds include an adhesive protective strip. This adhesive-backed foam strip seals any remaining gap between the fan shroud and radiator so that the fans are only moving air that has passed through the radiator core as opposed to pulling in air from the engine bay, resulting in improved cooling efficiency.
Kit Includes;
Compatible with both OEM and Mishimoto Radiators this kit is capable of moving an amazing 2300CFM of air over your radiator.
Delivery Is usually very quick however please allow up to 14 days for delivery of this part.
The Mishimoto performance aluminium radiator for the Mazda RX-8 is the ideal upgrade to the stock RX8 radiator.

Please allow up to 28 working days for delivery of this item when not in stock in the UK.
The brand new entry level coilover from Tein has proven extremly popular.
With an even lower price then Teins Street Basis Coilover, once again Tein have delivered on price without compromising on quality.
One of the ways Tein have managed to shave the price of this kit is to utilise the OEM top mounts.
Some of the features of the new Street Basis-Z include.
Sealed Structure
The top end of the shell pipe is narrowed, oil and gas are injected, and the whole unit is sealed by crimping the metal.
This new approach massively shortens the production process. As a result, we have succeeded in vastly cutting production cost.
Thread Type Ride High Adjustment
The ride height can be adjusted by moving the lower spring seat up or down.
Characteristic of this system are its simple structure and ease of use.
Twin Tube System
Compared to the regular mono-tube system, twin-tube attains longer stroke with a smaller repulsive force, resulting in high ride comfort.
Roads may have all sorts of surface conditions. This calls for shock absorbers with ample stroke, that operate smoothly.Thanks to this unique characteristic, you can negotiate gaps and bumps steadily on rough roads, meaning a smooth ride at low speed and stability at high speed.
Use of OEM topmounts.
STREET BASIS Z use the vehicle’s original upper mounts (not included in our product kit).
High Durability and Reliability are what make the Tein Street Basis-Z a great choice if your on a budget.
Optimal Dust Boot
Thanks to its smooth compression and high durability, the dust boot guards the piston rod from damage, and keeps foreign material out of the shock absorber.
(Some vehicles use their OE dust boots)
No Sag Springs
Cold formed with SAE9254 steel (minimum tensile strength 200 kgf/mm2), our springs are outstandingly sag-proof and boast extreme resiliency.Superior rust protection is ensured with a highly durable powder coating that does not peel or flake. Our high-quality springs can be used without worries, in any conditions.
High Performance Damper Oil
Since TEIN’s damper oil maintains a stable viscosity in a broad temperature range, it sustains smooth stroke and reliable damping force in a variety of circumstances.
Due to excellent anti-foaming properties, it’s resistant to cavitation (bubble forming). Since it withstands high heat too, it’s suitable for intense sport driving as well.
Furthermore, the damper oil keeps up its superior performance long-term, because it’s resistant to deterioration over time.
Essex Rotary are proud to bring you the Aeromotive Stealth 340 Fuel Pump that will fit in the same location as your failing OEM pump.
The Aeromotive 340 Stealth Fuel Pump is a high-output, in-tank, electric fuel pump that fits most popular EFI applications. The Aeromotive 340 is a compact, lightweight pump that bolts into many existing hanger assemblies. (while fractionally longer then the OEM RX-8 pump this Aeromotive pump will fit)
What sets the 340 Stealth Pump apart is its superior flow throughout a wide pressure range. Compared to other popular aftermarket pumps, at 40 psi the 340 boasts more than 340 lph. That’s over 30% more flow. This pump is ideal for applications requiring more flow while retaining the factory lines and mounting provisions available in the Original Equipment (O.E.) configuration. The 340 is also perfect for use as a universal replacement for applications that require more flow to support forced air power adders such as turbo and supercharged applications.
We have been running this pump in our own cars for a few years now with excellent results and no drop in fuel delivery.
Please note that modification of the pop off pressure valve in the pump assembly will be required to run any uprated pump on the RX-8′s fuel pot.

3 Pulley kit including replacement drive belts
Essex Rotary brings you our new lightweight under drive pulley Kit replaces all three pulleys, Main Crank Pulley plus Alternator and Water Pump Pulleys reducing the potential for Water Pump cavitation and over working of the Alternator at the high RPM ranges the Rotary Engine can operate at.
These Lightweight Pulleys are CNC machined from super light but extremely strong 6061-T6 Aluminium Alloy. reducing rotational weight from the crank and associated ancillaries will theoretically frees up horsepower normally used to turn the heavier pulleys and ancillaries (though Essex Rotary make no claim to proven HP gains when using under drive kits)
Cavitation
Cavitation is a process where by your water pump impeller acts like a “whisk” at high RPM beating air bubbles in to the coolant mixture, this process dramatically reduces coolant efficiency as the increasing cavitation effect reduces coolant flow around the engine.
Each kit comes with 2 new alternator/water pump and air conditioning drive belts made by Gates to suit your new setup as the OEM size belts will no longer fit.
This 3 piece kit has the same size water pump pulley as our 2 piece kit however the alternator pulley is slightly smaller in overall diameter.

By now its well known that a non-resonated catalytic converter pipe on the RX-8 can produce a overwhelmingly loud exhaust and cause “drone” in the cabin at motorway speeds, but if you require a modest, quieter exhaust tone, then the Racing Beat dual resonated pipe is your answer. Designed to provide the ultimate combination of performance AND sound, this pipe is sure to be a hit with RX-8 owners.
Racing Beat offers a full 304-stainless steel catalytic converter replacement pipe with dual resonators for RX-8 racing applications. Fitted with two (2) specially designed resonator units specifically for the RX-8 chassis. Both our resonated and non-resonated pipe versions are a direct bolt-on replacement for the stock catalytic converter section. Our replacement pipes utilize a genuine OEM rear mounting flange for a secure fit to the stock (or an aftermarket) exhaust system. Each replacement pipe is equipped with a sensor fitting for the oxygen sensor.
(Note: With some cars fitting this part may cause the “check engine” light to be illuminated, but performance and all other engine systems will not be affected. Essex Rotary offer out Stage 1 ECU Flash that can disable this CEL)
Delivery time can be 2/3 weeks
Important: Whilst this is a perfectly safe modification to normal aspirated RX-8′s, If your engine has a Turbocharger or a Supercharger fitted, fitting this de-cat pipe will make the exhaust gasses escape more freely and could increase the boost level causeing the engine to detonate with out the ECU being remapped.

Eibach Pro-kit Lowering Springs offer an approx 25mm drop from the standard factory ride height
Eibach’s RX8 Pro-Kit lowering springs are the perfect answer for most frequently-driven street cars. It’s their legendary spring system that dramatically improves both a vehicle’s performance and appearance. Pro-Kit lowers your RX8′s centre of gravity, reducing squat during acceleration, body roll in corners and excessive nose-dive under braking. When combined with Plus-1 or Plus-2 wheels and tires, the Eibach Pro-Kit is the finishing touch to a winning recipe for performance in your RX8.
Pro-Kit also reduces excessive fender-well clearance, making your RX8 look just as hot as it performs. Every Eibach Pro-Kit is designed and tested by Eibach suspension engineers and performance driving professionals to deliver aggressive good looks and high performance handling, without ever compromising safety or ride quality. Eibach’s proprietary, progressive spring design, the RX8 Pro-Kit provides the ultimate balance to take your passion for driving to a whole new level.
Racing Beat designed coil springs are suitable for street or racing applications. Designed to offer a modest reduction in ride height, these linear rate springs interchange exactly with the stock springs.
These RX-8 springs will provide a front and rear drop of approximately 25mm (1/2-inch) drop both front and rear. A modest spring rate increase of approximately 20% will provide a performance improvement without sacrificing ride quality.
Jim Mederer, Racing Beat’s co-founder and chief engineer, shares his thoughts on designing Racing Beat’s suspension springs:
“Springs are very much a matter of opinion, I adjust ride height and spring rate based more than any other thing, my taste. We won’t excessively lower a car to obtain a “look”. First, the car will hit the bump rubbers far too often and that makes the car unpredictable in its handling, also it makes it harsh and it is very hard on suspension components causing them to potentially fail. We therefore make relatively small changes in ride height, usually less than 1″, depending on the application. We adjust that based in part on what we perceive the best way of adjusting for good handling.
Our primary goal in lowering the car is handling, and from our point a view, improved appearance is a side benefit. We don’t lower the car for appearance, and then take what comes in handling. We are very cautious to not excessively lower the car such that it will cause perceived problems either in safety or unreasonable changes in ride comfort.”
This kit includes all for Lowering springs and is compatible with both the early RX-8 and the later R3
RX-8 Decat Race Pipe – 2004-2011 RX-8
Racing Beat offers a full 304-stainless steel race pipe for RX-8 (for racing applications only).
Weighing aprox 4.5Kg. This mandrel-bent 3″ OD racing pipe is a direct bolt-on replacement for the stock catalytic converter section. This pipe utilizes a genuine OEM rear mounting flange for a secure fit to the stock (or an aftermarket) exhaust system.(many other decats require new shorter joint springs or modification to the existing springs)
The race pipe is equipped with a sensor fitting for the oxygen sensor. (Note: Placement of the sensor in the pipe will cause the “check engine” light to be illuminated, but performance and engine systems will not be affected.) Removal of the OE catalytic converter/presilencer section will result in a noticeably louder exhaust tone.

This Adaptronic ECU though not specifically designed for the S2 (R3) RX-8, is the kit to enable you to run and map on an aftermarket ECU. Each kit will include a 2 meter bare loom kit
The 440/Select ECU is the full-featured progression of the earlier 420d model. Enhancements include more RAM for future firmware updates, faster proccessing, USB (and RS232) connectivity, a headphone jack for knock monitoring and a list of new firmware features.
the e440 Delect features include;
Please Note that If the idle speed needs to be changed due to porting, we recommend using a reflashing tool eg MazdaEdit from Epifan.com to do this.
For the RX8 Series 2 installation:
1.If you’re doing your own tuning, we recommend replacing the front O2 sensor with a wideband lambda sensor.
2. The factory ECU requires the airflow meter for idle control,
3. The ECU must be wired into the factory loom. Additional components required include a long harness, 2 x 5-pni relays and an OBD interface.
4. If the idle speed needs to be changed due to porting, we recommend using a reflashing tool eg MazdaEdit from Epifan.com to do this.
5. If you are changing to direct fire coils or otherwise changing the ignition system, ensure that it is wired and grounded correctly. If you’re using a coil / ignitor system where the secondary is grounded, the coil ground must be grounded to the rotor housing (not the chassis). This includes LS1, LS2 and AEM coils. If you’re using an ignition coil where the secondary is connected to the positive supply (eg the Bosch 717 coils), you must have a capacitor from the ignition coil positive to the rotor housing. This is standard in factory looms, but sometimes people forget this when they wire up their own ignition systems.

Standalone engine management installation has never been so easy. Now with the new Adaptronic Plug-In Select for Series 1 Mazda RX-8 can plug and play your way in to the world of standalone.
All Adaptronic Plug-In Select ECUs are sold with a base map to get the car running, so all you have to do is plug it in to be up and running again.
All ECUs in the Select range have an internal 4 bar MAP sensor, so you can simply run a hose from the barb on the ECU into the engine bay. You may retain the air flow meter if you wish, but MAP sensing is required for most forced-induction applications.
Although these ECUs are plug-and-play, you still have the freedom to configure and tune the ECU as you wish, using the user-friendly WARI tuning software. Pinout tables are provided for all Plug-In Select ECUs, so you know exactly what each input and output is connected to on the engine.
This model requires the original ECU to be left in place to control some basic functions like alternator and Throttle control as well as traction control. The Adaptronic acts as a piggy-back in this situation but the ability of the standalone is not diminished in any way.
Please Note that If the idle speed needs to be changed due to porting, we recommend using a reflashing tool eg MazdaEdit from Epifan.com to do this.

Racing Beat’s fully assembled Stainless Steel Braided Hose Set replaces the original factory oil cooler hoses on the 2004-2008 RX-8, Manual Trans only. Costing much less than Mazda replacement units (over £600 for the complete Mazda set!), the Racing Beat Oil Hose sets will meet the demands of both street and race.
Simplify your oil line system by replacing the original EIGHT (8) factory lines with the streamlined Racing Beat kit, which contains only the three (3) most critical lines – 1) engine out-to-cooler, 2) cooler-to-cooler, and 3) cooler-to-engine in.
The Mazda factory lines combine both rigid and flexible tubing, and include ten (10) mid-hose connector fittings. Replacing this complex combination of hosing and connectors with a simplified performance-based set eliminates possible areas of leakage during racing and high output applications. As the old saying goes, “Simple is better!” Produced in-house at Racing Beat using Earl’s Auto-Flex stainless steel braid-protected synthetic rubber hose and featuring an inner liner of synthetic rubber, including partial cover of stainless steel braid embedded into the liner during manufacturing. The hose liner is then bonded to a outer protective sheath of stainless steel wire braid. Precision-machined aluminum Auto-Seal and Swivel-Seal hose ends ensure a secure and superior seal. Each line is pressure tested by Racing Beat at the end of the assembly process. Unlike earlier rotary applications, replacement of the oil lines on the RX-8 application requires substantial labor effort and is best undertaken when the engine has been removed from the vehicle. Although more challenging due to limited access, this project can be undertaken with engine in the vehicle, just allow adequate time to complete the process. With the engine in the vehicle this is an involved project that can’t be rushed!
It has become an increasing problem as these cars age that the factory oil lines are corroding and leaking oil, the usual point for these line to start leaking is just in front of the front wheels behind the wheel arch liners. Depending on severity of the leak this could cause anything from an engine failure due to loosing your oil to an accident as of covers your front wheels. The Racing Beat lines eliminate these points of corrosion and will not require replacement again.
Shipped complete with all required oil lines, oil cooler adapters, engine adapters, bracket hardware, protective end caps, and fully detailed installation instructions.
Please note
This kit if for 2004-2008 models only and will not fit the later R3 version. a separate kit is available for this model.
Please allow up to 14 days for delivery of these oil lines if they are not in stock in the UK.
From street to road racing, the Racing Beat Aluminum Flywheel is ideally suited for a wide range of performance applications.

Racing Beat offers their Ram Air Duct for use with the Racing Beat REVi Intake Kit. The inlet of this duct is positioned in the mouth opening of the Mazda RX-8 to allow cooler ambient air to be force-fed directly into the REVi intake tract, converting your intake into a true “cold-air” intake system!
Designed by Racing Beat, this high-density polyethylene intake duct mounts under the nose of your RX-8 and directs air into the inlet of the REVi Intake Kit. This duct can also be used with the stock intake box or aftermarket intake kits to direct cooler air into the engine compartment.
The installation of this duct requires the removal of the nose from the RX-8

Racing Beat offers their extremely popular REVi Intake System for all RX-8 applications. Designed to offer performance improvements without sacrificing drivability, the Racing Beat intake system is the final result of hundreds of hours of dyno test sessions and on-road testing.
The major components of the REVi Intake System include: an OEM style air box assembly, custom-designed K&N air filter unit, aluminum mass air flow sensor tube, and a tuned-length air inlet horn. Unlike many of the aftermarket intake systems on the market, the Racing Beat intake system retains one of the important mesh screens to aid with the even distribution of airflow across the mass air sensor. The inclusion of this screen minimizes the possibility of “rough idle” issues that may occur if both stock screens are eliminated.
Working with the design team at K&N Engineering, a high capacity air filter was developed that allowed us to position a tuned-length intake horn inside the filter body. This filter design allowed us to fine-tune the length of the air horn to maximize the performance potential. We have noted that many aftermarket intake systems for the RX-8 incorporate a large air filter, which is then connected to the intake manifold with a length of plastic or metal tubing. In many cases, the size of the filter that has been selected will dictate the length of tubing required, severely limiting the critical tuning importance of the air intake tube!
