View Full Version : Sacramento Area Where ya at???
rx82hate 03-12-2008, 10:44 AM After putting a post last time, I recieved a very few responses... Looking for other 8 owners to meet with every now and then. I was fortunate enough to meet model_no15 this week, and we had a great time checking out each others rides and ideas. So, come out of the woodwork and lets see who is close to sacramento. I'm currently in Rocklin. Hope to you and your ride soon.
Brannon
model_no15 03-15-2008, 01:42 AM Whats up Brannon?
Where are all the Sacramento or surrounding neighborhood people at? I see RX8 here and there but they are always driven by old ladies. Any other forum members near the Sac area. There should be a meet so we can all check out each other's rides and hang out for a bit.
Post here!!! DJ I know your around here. You got a sick ride, but you need to check out Brannon's ride it's a badass car.
rx82hate 03-17-2008, 09:55 PM Just me and you for now I guess bro..
Sacto and surrounding area's where ya at.
zooooombyu 03-17-2008, 10:09 PM I'm in W. Sac. I just picked up my 8 last weekend. No mods yet, but hopefully some on the way later this year. I'd like a chance to meet up with some other owners and talk about the cars. There's a lot I need to learn about with this car, as my previous experience has been with MR2s and this is a whole different beast.
rx82hate 03-18-2008, 11:01 AM Welcome, PM sent...
EDZRIDE 03-18-2008, 11:11 AM I'm here in the pocket; don't get out to much, usually just on the weekends.
Maelick21 03-20-2008, 12:22 PM Hey I'm out in Reno. Got my 8 a little over a month ago and have plans to start with wheels / suspension here in the coming month or so. Have a few parts on order so far, =)
rx82hate 03-20-2008, 03:11 PM Welcome everybody. I would like to get a qtrly meet going. I'm glad people have finally spoke up. Anybody that has a good idea on location, day of the week, etc. Lets PM each other or post here. It always takes awhile to get things going, but I look forward to meeting everybody.
Ross_Dawg 03-21-2008, 10:28 PM reppin the dirty 530... Auburn baby!
rx82hate 03-22-2008, 12:06 PM Everyone. If your comfortable. PM me your contact info. Email or phone # would be great. I really would like to get a quarterly meet together. Including going on possible road trips every now and then to attend/meet other rx8 clubs. So please send info and ideas of where and when. Would like to make it a nice area in sacto since all of us seem to be atleast 20-30 minutes from there (except or Reno x'er )
So think of best day and places. Brannon
model_no15 03-22-2008, 11:11 PM Dang everyone came out at once. The weekends work good for me. I work and go to school full time during the week. Saturdays. probably, or a Friday night
Ryan28A 03-24-2008, 07:55 PM Glad to see Sacramento area people here. I gave up on looking for peeps to meet up with until I ran into rx82hate (I was the one on my motorcycle). Lets get something going! I'm in!
EDZRIDE 03-25-2008, 06:44 PM How far are you guys from Oakland? I need a favor from you.
90 miles, give or take:)
ShowandDriftRX8 03-27-2008, 10:00 PM I am in Vacaville. Let me know when you want to set up a meet. I was thinking of inviting more than just 8 owners though so it would be more fun. Hit up some other forums and let em know.
DJBRAVO 06-24-2008, 04:25 AM i just got my rx8 last friday and i love driving it. its a sport package AT. im new to this car. and i am interested in getting ideas for modding it. i live in sac/elk grove
Ryan28A 06-24-2008, 04:55 AM I had a lot of work done at AR performance there in elk grove. Cool guys that do a great job. The 8 is a very fun car to drive and also modify!
T-ReX-8 06-24-2008, 06:41 PM I live in Sac/EG as well.. What color is your car (most important part..)
ShowandDriftRX8 06-24-2008, 07:04 PM So any specific dates or locations thought of yet? I know there are a few nice shopping centers out there near Fry's. Lets set this up soon I haven't been to a meet in a while. We can do a video of it like I did at the last rotary meet at treasure island.

T-ReX-8 06-24-2008, 07:17 PM I don't know about driving to Notomas but I'd be down for a meet a little more centralize to Sac county around Power Inn Calvine area.
I'm looking to do some upgrades soon. All I have is intake and other than that just rims and a few other body mods.
Looking for some CF goodies and then next up is either nitrous or boost, maybe some suspension goodies as well..
I've had one of the fastest street cars in Sac/NorCal for a while ('92 TSI AWD Talon 10.2@142) I went to build a single digit drag car but kinda got distracted by the 8, and my job/GF taking all my spare time.
However the 8 is nice but too too slow. Worrying about RSXs and S2000s and 350Zs and the such is embarrassing.. :spank:
trancesimulator 06-24-2008, 07:19 PM im up to come..for some meets
6dmnbg 06-26-2008, 03:54 AM Worrying about RSXs and S2000s and 350Zs and the such is embarrassing.. :spank:
So true, thats why I got a turbo. I live in the stockton area but am willing to drive up there on the weekend if you guys are gonna meet up. I havent been to a meet in a while.
Ross_Dawg 06-28-2008, 01:34 AM so are gettin a meet goin or what?
im from sac currently living it texas but im moving back in august
onephatguy 06-28-2008, 02:45 PM Hey I'm out in Reno. Got my 8 a little over a month ago and have plans to start with wheels / suspension here in the coming month or so. Have a few parts on order so far, =)
We will have to meet up. My parents live in Fernley and I may move up there to help them out.
Im in Stockton and we meet up all the time. We are making a run 2morrow to Santa Cruz you should all come. Maybe the central valley guys can make a run to Sac. Are there any good twisty roads in that area?
onephatguy 06-28-2008, 02:49 PM However the 8 is nice but too too slow. Worrying about RSXs and S2000s and 350Zs and the such is embarrassing.. :spank:
Not a drag car, although there are a few. Add a turbo, keep the rpms up and/or take them down a twisty road.
model_no15 06-28-2008, 04:13 PM There is a dyno meet on Aug. 2nd in Hayward. There are like 11 people or more attending so far. Mabye you guys want to drive out on that day. I'm from the sac area and I am going to the dyno meet.
T-ReX-8 06-28-2008, 07:43 PM Not a drag car, although there are a few. Add a turbo, keep the rpms up and/or take them down a twisty road.
Not being a drag car is an exuse for someone with a slow car lol...
There are plenty of superb handling cars that aren't as anemic as an RX8.. once you compare its lack of power to its decent handling it would still have a lacking overall score. Add in gas millage and blah blah blah and its definitely a car only for a specific niche.
I love my car, but its more for looks than performance.
deen1njai 07-02-2008, 05:25 PM whats up rx8club.
im new to the forums, actually this is my first post. had my sunlight silver8 about a year now and im lovin it.
nothing good about my car, cept aem intake, and might get a carbon fiber lip spoiler.

just get at me.

what up TSimage lol. wish you were in socal so you could help me with my eclipse. it has a 6 bolt swap in it and a couple of other parts. i need help to tune it too. if your ever in socal let me know.
T-ReX-8 07-08-2008, 06:51 PM what up TSimage lol. wish you were in socal so you could help me with my eclipse. it has a 6 bolt swap in it and a couple of other parts. i need help to tune it too. if your ever in socal let me know.
You're Se3P or somethin like that right.. I remember now, you use to have a RX8 too, did you sell it? If you still have any of the parts maybe we can switch some dsm parts for RX8 parts?
Edit: I just checked under your S/N lol.. duh
>speedaddict< 07-08-2008, 06:57 PM i still have it but i might get rid of it.. not sure though... what kind of parts are you looking for?
T-ReX-8 07-08-2008, 07:00 PM A little bit of everything, right now CF Hood/Trunk/Spoiler, the of course performance and suspension mods. Now that I'm back to stock its time to rebuild it lol.
>speedaddict< 07-08-2008, 07:15 PM well i can probably get you new RB parts for cheap. . i have to make sure on that one though since i havent gone to RB in a while. i dont want to part out my 8 right now since im not sure that im selling yet. i might just keep it, build it and use the eclipse as a dd lol

Wow working backwards.. lol!
>speedaddict< 07-08-2008, 08:19 PM yea but thats cause you dont see very many high powered rx8's but there are alot of high powered dsm's. well at least more than rx8s lol
Highway8 08-08-2008, 03:08 PM I have added a thread with a list of HPDE and track days in the northern cal area, please check it out, subscribe, contribute and enjoy. Thanks.

T-ReX-8 08-08-2008, 03:27 PM Speaking of Sac, I just wanna know who the tool was speeding and ridding everyones ass in the blue GT yesterday in the Arden area.
It made me look bad, well you being a douche made me look bad, guy had nice rims but my 8 still looked better, so did my rims. :lol:
cfm251 09-08-2008, 01:23 PM wow cool!!! sacramento rx8 owners!!! i thought i was al alone:uhh: well cool cause ive only seen about 2 maybe 3 rx8 this whole time, a blue one(possibly the speeding douche and a red one....or possibly 2...it might be the same one I spotted the car once in south sac and maybe the same car...idk agian near Sac State.
05pearlRX-8 09-14-2008, 04:55 AM Just bought mine a month ago, I'm in the Arden area, off Howe, if you're from the 916 u know where datz @ =) hit me up, lookin' for others to meet up with as well, haven't seen many up here either! :eyetwitch
model_no15 10-09-2008, 12:29 AM Whats up people. Lets get a meet going in the Sac area. Anyone have any ideas on a location. What days of the week work best for people?
trancesimulator 10-09-2008, 01:23 AM fri or saturday sometime soon perferably
cruise? eat and ahng out? activity or wut u guys wanna do?
there is go karting we can do for a meet? or get a bbq before it starts to rain. go to a pool hall and hustle people for money lol =p
T-ReX-8 10-09-2008, 02:09 AM lets start simple first.. Hit up hooters, grab some pizza, Sonics, In N Out.. I dunno..
Ryan28A 10-09-2008, 11:16 AM Sounds great to meet up in Sac. We could do spagetti Factory on Hazel and 50 - then hit up RPM on Bradshaw and 50. I'm in for a Saturday.
Ryan
pksan123 10-09-2008, 01:53 PM or the cheese cake factory but pie>cake :lol:
model_no15 10-09-2008, 02:04 PM I think Sac would be the best place to meet up at. I'm not from Sac but I do go to school there. I just don't know a lot of places.
So far we have
BBQ somewhere
Cheesecake Factory (I heard tons of girls hang out here) thats a plus
Spagetti Factory w/RPM
Hooters, Sonic, In-Out (sounds like by the Truxel Natomas area)
What else do you guys think we should do?
trancesimulator 10-10-2008, 07:34 PM so u guys are up for then. how far in advance u guys say ill post a new thread i think cheescake since there is girls =p
haha...i say24th or 25th of this month?
T-ReX-8 10-11-2008, 04:28 AM Not feelin' the cheese cake factory. Not unless you plan on making eeeeearly reservations... By starting off simple I was reffering to doing something that is more meet and greet rather than meet and eat....
deen1njai 10-11-2008, 12:45 PM im down to meetup. im from sac too. yeh plan something.
model_no15 10-13-2008, 07:28 PM So you guys want to meet up on the 25th? How about the Natomas truxel area where the movies and hooters is at. They have a pretty big parking lot there with a bunch of open spaces and if people want to eat we can hit something up there. Let me know what you guys think. Maybe we should start a list to see who will show up. Put your name on the list if you can come. If there is a problem with the date or location lets find a new one.
1.Alfonso
2.Brannon
T-ReX-8 10-13-2008, 08:42 PM Throw me on the list.

model_no15 10-14-2008, 12:09 PM Do you guys want to see if some rx7 guys will come out?
NorCal7 10-14-2008, 05:13 PM FD here in Folsom. Won't be able to make it out for awhile, but it'd be cool to have a bigger group meet up. There's not many of us 7's.
You guys should do something around sac state, that seems to be a good middle ground.
Howe and University (cobblestone?) hooka bar. Just throwing out ideas.
T-ReX-8 10-14-2008, 06:52 PM I'm thinking Jamba Juice in arden/howe would be a really good place. Truxel is a bit far for anyone coming south of Sac.
model_no15 10-14-2008, 07:37 PM I know where that is at. That sounds cool. If no one objects lets do it there if it's easier for everyone. What about a time? How about afternoon like 12 or 1?
T-ReX-8 10-14-2008, 07:57 PM I was thinking an evening meet.. 7ish
deen1njai 10-15-2008, 12:12 AM hmm, my car is stock, but yeah, i guess it'll just have to get sh*tted on. haha 25th sounds good. lets do it. lets invite s2ks too -_-. jk.
rx82hate 10-15-2008, 12:34 AM When I started this thread, it was with all my attentions to get this sactown thing off the ground and on the map. I want to thank model 15 for working on this and for everyones interest and ideas. Its finally going to happen. I had some family crap to deal with and my car I have been wrenchin away on. I'm going to go to this with model 15 since I'm up on stands for about another month. See ya Soon
Brannon
T-ReX-8 10-15-2008, 02:16 AM Hell I sold all my CF stuff so my car is pretty much back to stock too.
T-ReX-8 10-15-2008, 02:17 AM But ok lets do this:
October 25th 7PM
Jamba Juice at the "Howe about Arden" shopping center (literally at the corner of Howe and Arden)
1) T-ReX-8
trancesimulator 10-15-2008, 02:26 AM u should start a new thread with the headline " SACramento 10-25-08 Meet" and have the meet stuff in there for this one b.c this just says sacramento where you at not many peeps will look when it says meet more people will look and be interested.
rx82hate 10-15-2008, 10:35 AM But ok lets do this:
October 25th 7PM
Jamba Juice at the "Howe about Arden" shopping center (literally at the corner of Howe and Arden)

Nights I'd usually prefer.. But I got plans that night. (concert)
I'm down for the lunchtime shot at hooters if peeps want to do both..
model_no15 10-15-2008, 10:41 AM the Rx7 guys want to meet at Wingstop. It's in the Natomas area where Old Navy and Target is at. They are thinking about 1pm.
Good idea about making a new thread. Lets get all the details worked out here and I or someone else can make the new thread with everything.
Deathwatch 10-15-2008, 01:50 PM Is there a meet this weekend? 18th

EDZRIDE 10-21-2008, 11:23 AM Hooters or Wing Stop?
pksan123 10-21-2008, 11:26 AM i thought the 7 guys wanted to meet up at wing stop.

pksan123 12-01-2008, 08:42 PM we're "discussing" it right now on the thread 11/22 meet. go check it out. After the decision has been made, there will be a new thread with the date of the meet. Right now it's probably on the 27th of this month. Hopefully it will coincide with the rx7 meet this time too.
