Any word on Andrew's ride? Is he getting a new 8 or what?
GOOD MORNING!!!!!..........andrews ride was totalled, and from what he tells me hes already out lookin for a good deal on another 8
FattySpartanRx8 03-19-2008, 09:47 AM I dont know if its a "good" morning... I am at work after all.....
^ sucks that it was totalled, but at least he is ok. Do you know what kind of 8 hes looking for now? He should buy DeeDubbs haha.
Spinning Sushi 03-19-2008, 09:49 AM I'm waiting for the moment that DeeDubb part out his car, I need his hood! :)
FattySpartanRx8 03-19-2008, 09:54 AM haha, It was really sad when everyone just calling dibs on his parts the moment he posted. even after he said "I'm not parting it out right now so don't ask."
:(
dozer 03-19-2008, 09:56 AM i need his front bumber and that HKS midpipe!!....deedubs is automatic, andrews wants the manny tranny, he also sed he either want a black one, a white one, or a red one...
FattySpartanRx8 03-19-2008, 09:58 AM Its not automatic its Manual. At least the picture he has on his thread is. Unless he got a strange shift nob and box for an automatic that makes it look like a manual.

MazdaSpeed Shocks + RS*R Springs (Great combo) and no, it's not going to be the MS kit. It's something much better. :)
Insurance is covering everything! That's the best part.

Spinning Sushi 03-20-2008, 11:22 AM So... who's going to Formula D this weekend? I'm planning on going maybe. :)

If I can get the coilovers for $400 then I'll do it. :)
I already got the RS*R springs so that's why I'm going to buy just the MazdaSpeed shocks and they're already 75% stiffer than stock.
How bad is the damage on your car?

umm the rear bumper is not that bad, im surprised tho, he hit me really hard!
my exhaust is bad tho! it knocked of one bracket and now its really loose and shit!
but im going to try and get a whole new body kit if the insurance covers it.

Body kit FTW! And since your exhaust got f'ed up, get an aftermarket one.
$850 is a bit too steep for my insurance check right now, I'll stick with the MS Shocks with my RS*R springs. :)
dozer 03-20-2008, 11:31 AM how much are the shocks gonna run you john??
Spinning Sushi 03-20-2008, 11:33 AM $400 + tax so that'll be a grand total of $431.00 from Tustin Mazda for all 4 shocks. That's a really good price!
MazdaTrix, finishlineperformance.com and rx7store.com charges alot more so $431 from Tustin Mazda is a great price. The best part is that they're a car dealership that doesn't jack up the prices on their parts. :)
dozer 03-20-2008, 11:38 AM nice i think im gonna look into those as my next mod....

I didn't know RS-R sold springs for the RX-8, I know they sell them for the RX-7. I also tried to look up on their site, and doesn't mention anything for the RX-8?!
Spinning Sushi 03-20-2008, 04:36 PM They do sell them, just not in the US market. It was pretty hard to obtain a set from them. :) I also want to buy their exhaust, which is also not in the US market... JDM FTW!
Go here and you'll see the exhaust I'm talking about. No one in the USA has them right now, I'm going to be the first just like the RS*R springs!

Those are some sweet looking springs dude! Why don't they sell them in the US market? Also, what's the drop height on them?
TrochoidMagic 03-21-2008, 09:40 PM ok, so have anyone ever heard of this place thats located in san gabriel next to weinerschnitzel? i know they have been around for a while. and i know since back then that they are mostly into honda stuff.
their customer service SUCK! i just decided to be friendly seeing that i drove by after seeing 2 RX8's outside. i guess one of them has one. the customer that was inside who owned an 8 was cool... i think his name was ben.
so anyway. i've always known they over-charge. but he's pretty "what-evers" when i mentioned about the 8club.com and didn't really considered about group discounts.
however, their custom sticker section is great and the customer service is cool too.
pretty much the only reason i see of now to patronize from that store... sad, huh?
Spinning Sushi 03-21-2008, 09:57 PM Those are some sweet looking springs dude! Why don't they sell them in the US market? Also, what's the drop height on them?
There's a bunch of stuff for the 8 that's still not in the US market yet. :(
The drop height for the springs are...

Spinning Sushi 03-21-2008, 09:58 PM ok, so have anyone ever heard of this place thats located in san gabriel next to weinerschnitzel? i know they have been around for a while. and i know since back then that they are mostly into honda stuff.
their customer service SUCK! i just decided to be friendly seeing that i drove by after seeing 2 RX8's outside. i guess one of them has one. the customer that was inside who owned an 8 was cool... i think his name was ben.
so anyway. i've always known they over-charge. but he's pretty "what-evers" when i mentioned about the 8club.com and didn't really considered about group discounts.
however, their custom sticker section is great and the customer service is cool too.
pretty much the only reason i see of now to patronize from that store... sad, huh?
What is the place call? I think there's going to be a Dyno day meet up there in San Gabriel soon, I forgot who it's being held by though.
TrochoidMagic 03-21-2008, 10:33 PM ^^ under thread title.

But we finished it up with some Thai food.... mmmmm

PhotoMunkey 03-24-2008, 10:34 PM +1 SoCal RX-8 at HIN-LA!
BTW-this is a different photo than what I posted elsewhere. I experimented with the flash on and off. The car is better lit with the flash on, so that's what I sent to my sponsors, but with it off, the other colors are much better... Moody yet nicely exposed. I'm glad my camera is smarter than I am!
Atilla 03-24-2008, 10:36 PM ^WOW! FANTASTIC SHOT! your 8 looked super clean! :)
Spinning Sushi 03-25-2008, 06:48 AM Morning Peeps!
FattySpartanRx8 03-25-2008, 08:39 AM Morning John. New image from my collection. Made a poster out of it for Phat's Shop... printed up on 13x19 photo paper.... looks soooo good up close and personal. Hope you guys enjoy.
http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j151/ochooligan/elementposter1.jpg
PhotoMunkey 03-25-2008, 12:27 PM ^WOW! FANTASTIC SHOT! your 8 looked super clean! :)
Just a little over 22,000 miles on my car now. "Super clean" is a relative term... What it really means is using about 8-10 microfiber towels to clean dust and grit from every nook and cranny on Friday before parking it at the show! That and a LOT of time spent using Meguires Clay Magic on the upper surfaces!
I didn't have my hood open so people wouldn't laugh at all of the stock plastic pieces under there! I figure when I go to the track, removing the plastic is lighter than installing those carbon fiber underhood panels.
BTW-took my Seibon hood off when I got home and found out it weighs at least a pound more than the stock one! Grrrrrrrrrrrr. Was damn pretty under the lights though!
dozer 03-25-2008, 12:38 PM ^ not to sound rude, but i personally think your car couldve been A LOT smoother, a good clay session for about maybe 3 hours and paying close attention wouldve got that baby velvet smooth with no friction what so ever, then carry some quick detailer to help is stay like that all night. people wouldve felt your car and slid RIGHT OFF! still, bitchin ride though, in my opinion the sexiest car there....
Angelo se3p 03-25-2008, 02:56 PM shitt, nevermind, im going to formula D now! ahha
i also just got a quote from my insurance, and i might get enough money to get a whole new body kit, im thinkin the fabulous bodykit might be that one
Spinning Sushi 03-25-2008, 03:53 PM Whoo hoo! Body kit ftw!
FattySpartanRx8 03-26-2008, 09:44 AM Good morning everyone. Seems like the thread has been dying the last few days John... if you want it stickied you better keep it goin :D
P.S. Who all is down for a giant 8 photoshoot? And might be willing to drive to SB or SD?
Cruise, Fun, Photoshoot.... Can't beat it :P

I agree... are you volunteering? LOL Actually, I just didn't have time before the show to do that. Normally I would. The roof is particularly ratty at this moment. I just washed it up and ran some Meguire's polish over it to shine it up good.
dozer 03-26-2008, 10:30 AM ^definitely! but you would have had to put my name somewhere saying somethin like props to dozer for the detail...
Spinning Sushi 03-26-2008, 04:23 PM Autobacs Meet this Friday!

I get my car back in 2 weeks. :)
Atilla 03-26-2008, 05:48 PM ^i'd be down - i'd be broke as shit...but down :)
FattySpartanRx8 03-26-2008, 06:19 PM I posted over on the Photoshoot thread about wanting to do it in May orginally... so i have time to scout out some spots and see whats in the areas that can hold 10-15 people.
but if you guys want to cruise out in 2 weeks and have me take some shots of just us I'd Be down for that too.
