Recently got into a bad wreck. Anything salvageable?

I recently got into a bad wreck (see pics) and was wondering if there was anything salvageable. I recently got an engine replacement last October and have put about 2500 miles on it, and I'm able to provide documents for proof. How can I know that my motor is still put into good use?



Just wanted to know if my baby can still be put to good use.

Just buying a non-runner :)

just on my way to pick up a 2004 non-runner, An apex seal has snapped and ruined chamber 1 resulting in loss of compression and non starting I'm told is the issue with it. Not a clue what that is yet except for a little research but sure it will be a good learning curve!! Sure I'll be asking for some help from people on here.

New Owner, Anybody in Central PA (State college, Altoona area?)

Hey guys, I have seen a nice amount of people suggesting meets, rides, lunches, etc in other areas. I was wondering what the odds are of having something like that in the Central PA area. In my lifetime I have seen very few RX8s in this region (two yellows, one red, one silver, a red auto from my hometown that is for sale, and mine) I would love to see some other owners come out sometime when the weather is good and have a BBQ or meet up for some lunch somewhere. Something just feels right about being in a community of people that is like minded and have similar interests. Hopefully we get some replies here and can get something arranged :fingersx:

Greetings from Florida

Hello Gang,



I am the proud new owner of an '05 Red 6 spd RX8. Sadly though, I inherited it from my brother. (He was a member here as "VALPAC" ) I am starting to go through it so I can find out what mods he did. So far I found a ton of Mazda Speed things already.



Here's what I can tell was done. Just not sure about who made it:



Mazmart's Reman engine w/new rotor housings and rotor



REmedy R9 HiFlow water pump



Cold Air intake



Aftermarket nose that has a different splitter and no Mazda badge. Is the radiator I'm seeing in the left grill where a fog lamp would be aftermarket?



Mazda Speed side skirts



Front tower brace (carbon fiber) and rear chassis braces



Racing Beat front and rear swaybars



Tein coilover shocks



...and I'm still finding more.



He used to talk about track days a lot. Not sure if I'll keep it and track it or sell it. Need to find out the value. It's a blast to drive for sure. If I didn't just get a '15 Corvette Z51, I'd keep her.



I'll post pics soon.



Later

Question about

I'm getting ready to do swap out of my cat and try using a stock cat that has been gutted since mine is clogging up. Are there any gaskets that go on either end of the pipe before I bolt it on? Or do I just use what's there?
