  When the RX8 was launched, many thought it was the replacement for the stellar RX7. The RX7's 255hp and sexy shape had become a classic favourite among tuners. So, instead of living with the compromises of a straight sports car or saddling the RX8 with the baggage of a family sedan. Mazda blended the best of both worlds and released the RX8, a car that is practical as it is fun to drive.

Read below for a step by step account of our cars development programme from date of purchase to its current stage.
 Factory Specification

The RX8 was made infamous on launch by incorporating many ideas usually only found on scale model concept cars at swanky motor shows.

 

The unique feature of the RX8 is the rotary engine. This remarkable piece of engineering is part of Mazda's heritage and has brought the Japanese manufacturer some of its greatest successes.

 Project Aims
Nemesis UK's plans were simple and straight cut - To enhance an already stunning looking vehicle with the emphasis on style over performance. Have we achieved this? You make your own mind up!
 Nemesis UK Project Mazda RX8
 

This car was put off the road, stripped back, prepped and painted before being returned to a now more than happy owner. It's hard to believe that the car was originally blue!

 

It turns out that it's only recently that Dode, the car owner decided that a change was in order, and with his car giving him great service and reliability he wanted to improve instead of replace. “I managed to find some spare cash and decided that the car was as good a place as any to spend it” and with that he headed down to Nemesis to see what we could do...

 

A genuine Lambo door kit from LSD was selected due to being the only insurance approved conversion system on the market (and therefore not hiking premiums up) and with a carbon bonnet and boot spoiler the transformation was almost complete.

 

The VeilSide kit fits like a glove as you would expect (as its not a copy of a copy of a drawing by a 5 year old child of a real kit), there’s a brand new Blitz Sonic air filter sucking air from a custom air box up front and blowing gases out of the Magnaflow twin exhausts at the rear too. Lightweight racing alloys were tucked under the arches and complementary graphics in a metallic finish were crafted to the now extended body panels. To finish things off nicely a set of Color Magic under car intelligent LEDs were fitted which can be controlled by remote control in a variety of colours, patterns and brightnesses depending on how Dode feels.
