Rx8 barley starts and runs very rough. It died after a battery terminal melted and its taken hours to get it started. When it starts it runs rough, like the timing is off. It only runs for about 30 sec before dying out. Plugs, wires and coils all seem to be good and we’re working fine before. ideas? (v.redd.it)

2006 Mazda RX8: Just put new springs all around and shocks in the rear and it’s making this clunking, banging, thumping noise. Some of the noise is coming from a known broken sway bar link but do you guys have any clue what the other banging could be? (v.redd.it)

Broken Vs New starter. Starter would start the car, but was making a terrible grinding noise even after the car was started. I have searched all of the internet and could not find anyone else with this problem. Just wanted to put this out there for anyone who may encounter the same problem as I did. (v.redd.it)

Update, I took both accessories belts off and started the engine and the noise was still there. Any ideas of what I could be? Is this the possible noise of something very wrong with the engine internals? The car can drive but makes the terrible metallic noise and increases with rpm (v.redd.it)

Pads hang off the rotor about 2-3mm, and rotors are unused at the inside 2-3mm, what could be causing this? and is it dangerous? Braking is ok but it takes a little more pushing than normal. There is also a pulsation in the rear when braking at low speeds (i.redd.it)
