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.

Thanks to our close association with the new UK distributor of Goopy Performance products Essex Rotary can now offer this superb proven more durable alternative to the standard Mazda Apex Seals.

Goopy Apex seals have become renowned for their reliability by withstanding up to 50psi in Drag Racing and still not failing and have even withstood detonation that the Mazda Apex seal could only dream of.

This makes these High Performance Apex seals not only ideal for any Turbo or Supercharged RX-8 but also ANY standard or tuned normally aspirated Renesis engine.

Also available for the RX-7 engines these seals can be included in  your Essex Rotary engine rebuild upon request at a small additional cost.

Sold at a set of 6 complete seals these will easily replace the stock apex seals found in all RENESIS engines.

The GReddy Magnetic Oil Drain Plug is a powerful 5000 gauss neodymium magnet. The Neodymium magnet is one of the most powerful magnet on the market.

This hard anodized aluminum drain plugs is compatible with most modern Mazda cars oil pans but we specificly stock it for the RX8 and RX7 FC/FD (please check your thread size on FB series oil pans and we will be happy to confirm fit).

By using the "GReddy Magdrain" plug, you can help reduce the amount of abrasive materials in your engine, while extending the life of your engine.

A simple but effective mod that can be carried out at any oil change, you will be surprised what gets picked up

Functional as a secondary oil cooler, GReddy high-capacity Oil Pans maintain more constant oil temperatures via increased volume of oil and the improved cooling efficiency of the thick-walled cast aluminium construction.

They also include specially designed interiors to keep the oil at the oil pump pick-up for engine reliability, and additional drain ports for the installation of turbo oil drains etc.

This oil pan offers an increased oil capacity over the stock oil pan, will not corrode and leak like the OEM pan, and with its superior cooling efficiency of the finned (heat sync style) cast aluminium construction this oil pan is a superb upgrade for both forced induction and N/A series 1 RENESIS engines.

2 piece pulley kit including replacement belt

Essex Rotary brings you our new lightweight under drive pulley Kit replaces both the Alternator and Water Pump Pulleys reducing the potential for Water pump cavitation and over working 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 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 complete with a replacement drive belt made by Gates to suit your new setup as the OEM size will no longer fit.

This 2 piece kit has the same size water pump pulley as our 3 piece kit however the alternator pulley is slightly larger again.

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 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.

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.

The GReddy RX-8 Turbo kit is a bolt-on turbo kit which comes with everything you need including the following parts:
>GReddy T618Z turbo with internal wastegate (Set to run 5 psi.)Cast turbo manifold
>Cast turbo manifold
>Cast turbo downpipe
>Aluminum intake pipe with intake filter
>Intercooler
>Intercooler piping
>GReddy E-manage Ultimate with wiring adapter means no wire cutting to your stock ECU harness.
>All the misc. hardware

The turbo kit is set to run 5 psi out of the box. This is a safe boost level. With other fuel system support and engine modification, the turbo is good to run up to 20 psi with a boost controller. The E-manage comes pre-programmed. GReddy claims 60 rear wheel HP gain from the turbo kit out of the box. 60 rear wheel horsepower was acheived on Greddy's test cars. The actual horsepower will vary from car to car. Further tuning of the E-Manage Ultimate with the E-manage laptop software may result in improved HP gain.

Essex Rotary recommend this kit is professionally installed and tunes but to the nature of converting an N/A RX-8 to Turbo. some applications may require revision of the original installation instructions.

This is the JDM kit designed and build for the RHD RX-8 NOT the LHD kit from the USA
