True, I think the last time most of us were together was at the Mazdapoolza at UCF...

Memories of Felix's Trunk :lol:

I havent been in the flrx8club.com board in about a year because they wont accept my password and the server wont send me an email to change it. Thought it was a hint.

LOL yeah those were good times.

Well HIN is next Saturday the 25th at Tropicana Field.

Sounds like chance for a Meet and Greet before the show.

Any takers?

That would be fun!!

I quit going to tampa rx8 meets. People don't seem to care about the car - they just want to drink beer.

I quit going to tampa rx8 meets. People don't seem to care about the car - they just want to drink beer.

Oh c'mon now. Beer is not that bad. ;) You and I will do a meet when I get my coils in. Or go for a drive if your up to it.

Just bought a saiga .308, if you want to come along for a drive towards Orlando when I go pick it up :)

Why cant we just do something up here around 54 and 41 then. Even if its just Kris jason and I. I mean I really dont care. Jason you know i like talking about cars lol, its not all about beer with me (although beer is not all bad). Just throughin it out there. I never got to see Kris' car finished. let me know guys. and if any one else lives in the area dont be shy through some ideas out there.

The saiga is bad ass btw. wish i had the money to buy up some nice guns

Mysql: I'll go along with you. When you going? I am work this weekend so if it's then I can' t go.

RWD+LSD=ZOOM: I live a few minutes from 54/41. I am up for any meet within a resonable location. The problem I have is the meets that are set up sre usually the weekends I have to work. I'm waiting on my coils to arrive and then I will be running again. I still need to get together with Mysql so we can go to the gun range. Set something up and I will go providing I am off and my coils are in. I have a coil failure CEL and need to wait. Shouldnt be too much longer.

I'm going this Wed ... leaving my office around 5:30 or 6:00, and heading out - trip is about 40 mins each way.

PM me if you're interested :)

im down for the gun range. :) let me know and I will get some ammo, kinda hard to find 9mm these days :(

I go to http://georgia-arms.com/selectbycaliber-2.aspx

buy a box or two of 1000 rounds :)

Thanks for the link :)

Im in Clearwater if you guys meet up PM me and i'll see if i can introduce myself to some people. Just got the car so I haven't been to any meet n' greets.


-Brandon

im down in the bradenton area, lets get something together down here

hey i just bought a turbo is there any one around here (Palmetto/Bradenton) with some experience that could help me out. I know a lot about cars, and how a turbo works. Just never installed or worked on an aftermarket kit. If any one could help it would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

I installed mine with the help of BHR. Pick a weekend and if I am off I will help you out. It' really just connectiing legos once the turbo is mounted.

Tampa Folk there is a BBQ Meet June 14th Come out!

http://cflrx8club.com/viewtopic.php?t=902

im going to try and do it, starting Monday. but i need to get ahold of the oil lines. I bought the kit used and cant seem to find the oil lines for the turbo.

Does anyone know where i could fnd some. or possibly buy the parts myself at a local hardware store

Check GReddy's website. If not I would guess you could do it with different lines. The hard part will be trying to find the AN3 fitting that goes to the oil pressure sending unit on the engine block. It took me a couple of days to find one that fit. Good luck. Also check around with small hardware stores. They seem to be the only ones that carry that fitting. I got mine at Ace Hardware.

Hey Tampa,
Are we still on the Map!
Do you still love your RX8!
Let's get together and show off, make heads turn. People love to see our vehicle all lined up. We all like to make new friends and get together with old friends. I'm still some what new, so I just thought I would put that out to some of the vets out there. Tampa is a fun place, so lets have some fun. Open for suggestions.

I'm a short drive north of Tampa, I'd be up for some meets once I get my car put back together.

I'm in da middle of everything here in lutz so a meet would be nice

we will be having another meet here shortly (rotary4life.com) that should involve one or more race facilities and race series organizations. As cool as these events are they take time to put together. When I get back to Tampa I can garantee more frequent meets and drives. As of right now I am in Pensacola another 10 or so months. Keep an eye for the above mentioned beause we have already initiated talks.

How about a Meet and Greet this Sunday? Someone pick a spot in tampa and lets get a few ppl together! It does not have to be about racing, just food and fun. I know there is few of us out there who want to get this thing going on at least once a month basis.

I am down just south of the skyway, So where ever is cool to me.

Sunday sounds good for me, lets just pick a spot. Tampa /St. Peterburgs it does matter to me. I drove to Orange City on June 14th to the BBQ Breakfast with CFLrx8Club that was nice. Anyone else out there want to get together with us. Pick a spot I'll be there!

A sunday meet sounds good.............any ideas on a spot an time?

Off the top of my head here are a few places to meet at Chilli's, Hooters, Tilted Kilt, Sushi place (if that ur thing)............anymore Ideas

How about bd's around 2:00 p.m. You pick out your own food and they cook it. Not expensive --bar,flat screen tv's & food.

bd's Mongolian Grill
3140B Tampa Rd.
Oldsmar FL 34677
(727) 785-0300

You do not need a reservation, but you can make one if you don't want to way.

If this is too far for some, I'm open to other locations as well. Glad to see some others interested.

I was all ready for whatever until I hit the bank up............Insurance hit my bank twice 530.50 wed and again today If I can get a fifty spot from my bro I'm down if not well you know

Im in Lutz. I am busy this weekend but will gladly show up at any weekday/weekend meet that follows. I am flexible unless i work. Maybe a short meet during the coming week? Wed/Thursday meet?

Well I am good to go tomorrow. I am working today until 2 and then have to drive down to Sarasota to pick up the wife's car. So we can do something later tonight or tomorrow afternoon.

There is always the Channel side Imax. Catch the new Transformer movie and plenty of place to drink and eat.

Transformers Revenge of the Fallen: The IMAX Experience
IMAX
Rated (PG-13) • 2 hrs. 30 min.
BUY TICKETS - 09:00am, Noon, 3:00pm, 6:00pm, 9:00pm, Midnight

Well guy tomorrow does not sound like a good time for everyone. I have to go a play tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. So, why don't we find a date that would work for everyone and plan from there. The only time I am not available is the July 9-13 going on a cruise. Also, channel side sounds like a good location. I'm easy to please, so location is not a big deal with me for the most part. However, I do have limitations (ha,ha). I am glad to see everyone is interested, may we can get together soon.

I just moved to Tampa and am definately down for a meet and greet!!!! lemme know whats goin =]

I'm cool with doin it another day...............lets just throw some dates out an vote?

I personally am suppose to attend a birthday party that night. But I am sure it will be an all nighter anyway. So I would rather get this going and try to make it a monthly thing.

We have had a suggestion of
International Plaza and Bay Street
West Shore & Boy Scout Blvd. 2223 N. West Shore Blvd. Tampa, FL 33607

Any other suggestions will be accepted as well.

I'd def be interested in getting a monthly thing going since I just moved down here =]

There is always the Channel side Imax. Catch the new Transformer movie and plenty of place to drink and eat.


Also a good spot

I didn't mean to include the movie part but you get the idea

I didn't mean to include the movie part but you get the idea

Actually, I havn't even seen the new transformers movie..and people are tellin' me it was so good they'd actually wanna see it again so...opinions?

I haven't seen it either.....so I'd be down

Gieco has really messed me up They left me so broke I can't even put oil in my car and she's THIRSTY....So the movies didn't happen for me this weekend

That location sounds good. Lots of parking

34221, international mall sounds good to me

the mall works for me too. maybe top floor of a parking garage or something where there wont be alot of other cars

Are we all legal to drink?

Are we all legal to drink?

i am.

yes

Its gonna be a good time then

OK. so it is going to be on July 11th. It ssem most are good to go for the following location.
International Plaza and Bay Street
West Shore & Boy Scout Blvd. 2223 N. West Shore Blvd. Tampa, FL 33607

So now what time?

7pm so we have a little sunlight for pictures or is 8 pm better for everyone?

I think we should meet up at the parking lot of the Kmart, Sound advice on Columbus across the street from Jerry ulm dodge.....it'll be a good look to see a few of us pull in all at once

im only 18 :/

Not sure if I'm going to make it now. Parts delays are putting my build behind schedule. Dont know if I'll have it back together and tuned well enough for that long of a drive by then. Gonna do my best to get it done, but if I dont make this one I'm definetly in for the next.

im only 18 :/

Thats ok, You still showin up

I think we should meet up at the parking lot of the Kmart, Sound advice on Columbus across the street from Jerry ulm dodge.....it'll be a good look to see a few of us pull in all at once

are you refering to the worst parking lot in the world? the one with the most potholes and useless speedbumps? lol

are you refering to the worst parking lot in the world? the one with the most potholes and useless speedbumps? lol


I agree with RWD. That could be the worst parking lot in the world. :hahano:

are you refering to the worst parking lot in the world? the one with the most potholes and useless speedbumps? lol

I agree with RWD. That could be the worst parking lot in the world. :hahano:


Sorry, It's been years since I've actually driven around that lot I thought of it cuz i drive by it eveyday after work...........Well how bout the sweetbay lot?

Tomorrow I am going to try go scout the area and see what I can figure out.

Maybe I'll try out my charm on mall management and see if I can get us hooked up on something.

The worst thing that can happen is they will laugh in my face.

For all those attending or any other who are thinking they might show up. Please bring your significant other. I just had a 30 minute conversation with my wife who thinks that all we are going to do is stand in the parking lot and look at each other cars.

I spent this time explaining that its about the community as much as it is about our rides.

Hmmm significant other( I fail )......Let me see if I can get a lady friend to join me. I'll see what I can do

ill probably bring a girl

OK so I went there today and parking will be at a premium. They do have a upper parking garage that is about 100 yards from the entrance to Bay Street where the bars are at. Also there is parking directly underneath. There were far less cars under then out in front.

In fact if you go past the Bay street entrance and hang a left you can go about a 100 ft and make a right into a parking area. Turn right before the security booth and there was some parking that was empty under some industrial fans.

I park there this afternoon it looks like the bes place.

That being said. The blue martini is having their little black dress party Saturday night and it is a very strict dress code. Dress shirt, slacks and shoes.

I did talk to the hostess at the place next door. Bar Louie they said we could call ahead and reserve a table. But I need a definite head count by Wednesday night.

So I need to know if you are making it for sure and if you are bringing someone.

well i dont think my girlfriend will be able to make it. so just me.

Sorry, I will not be able to make it, have a drink for me and our have two for you on my cruise. I hope to meet up with you guys in the near future. Have a great time.

im bringing someone

Count me in. just me tho it har to get a new mother to get out the house..owell

I going to wait until tomorrow to confirm a table; right now it looks like we have a total of six. I need to get response from. On if they are bring someone or flying solo.

FloRX8,Police 34 and MyNam3

I am sending each one of them a email.

maybe you might want to post on www.flrx8club.net, there are lots of members in tampa that go to that site. It died down alot lately but you can always try to add to the roster. I have texted a couple old members to see if they want to come. If they do, I would not worry about adding them to the table.

I tried to sign in and it said my password was no good. I requested it again and never got it. SO if you are on that forum fell free to put the info out there.

I cant seem to post anything. keep getting errors. there must be something wrong with the site over there :(

im military and gotta work that night... and if i can i will be there... got new mods needs to be shown off!!! ie> rims, smoked tails, and police strobes

Hey kids, I might go. I'll spread the word to the other 8's that I know in the area.

Hello to the people I don't know.

Add me on Myspace: www.myspace.com/a5alan2

What's the time and place we are meeting at?

Saturday the 11th at the international mall not sure on the time

7pm

International Mall, at a place called Bar Louie. It is located at the far North West corner of the Mall. We will have a table reserved under RX8club. Here is a link to the place.

http://www.restaurants-america.com/barlouie/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewLocation&locID=17

If you want you can have your car valet right out in front. But I suggested that we park in the park garage underneath the bar.

If you are out in front where the valet attendant is you go north toward the stop sign. Make a right go about 100 ft make a another right into the parking area. Then turn right one more time before the security booth and the parking will be straight ahead.

So whats the final count of people showing up?

Looks like at least five 8's will be there making at least 8 of us to sit and have drinks. Those are confirms. Now if other show I can only hope so.

Awesome........Now to shine my baby up

I spent the day today dodging the rain drops. So I could pull off the mirrors and the side strakes to sand and paint them black again.

Figured while I had the door panels off I would install new speakers as well.

Not able to make it.

Sorry had to drop car off at the stealership due to the fact A/C only blew out heat and it too much to drive around getting double blasted by heat.

Havent had car for a day now and we will see what happens today.

are we going to try and get there a little early for some pics and what not

If the table is reserved for 7 I will be therer around 6. After we finish with the restaurant i figured we could hang around for a bit more. Up to the concensus.

alright then sounds good see you there

The table is reserved for 8 pm.

For those who get there early to take some pics that is cool. I had plan on getting there about 7:30. It doesnt get dark until 8:30. I put it under the name RX8club.

They called me today to confirm the table. So we are all good to go. It sounds like everyone will have a busy morning tomorrow shining there rides.

Guess i'll be there around 7 then

see you guy around 7:30

Not gonna make it guys. Car just doesnt want to cooperate. Hopefully make it to the next one once I get all the bugs ironed out with my setup :)

where are the pics???

where are the pics???

The wife and I went out last night after we left there. Been a little hung over today. I will download them tomorrow and post them.

I wanted to thank everyone who came out, it was great meeting wih other 8 owners. we will do it again for sure.

http://www.rx8club.com/album.php?albumid=1210

It was a pleasure meeting everyone that showed up....I must say I'm a bit jealous that I don't have a MT. Christmas is coming so I hope to change that. Can't wait for next meet!!!

we need to do this when i can attend. looks like a fun time.

Looks like a good time, sorry I missed it. Hopefully I'll have my Car tuned and the bugs worked out in time for the next one :)

Sorry I missed this and been MIA guys... my computer went out of comission and I'm so busy with the new job I havn't gotten a chance to fix it till now... I'm def down for making the next one!!!

We are going to do it again. We are thinking Aug 8th, which makes it one month away from the last one.

We already had a suggestion for Quaker Steak and Lube for the next meeting.

I would like to suggest and afternoon meeting so we can get some shots of the cars during the day. But if there is another place please suggest it as soon as possible so we can ensure a bigger turn out.

why not do like a sunday lunch at quaker or something like that.... Quaker has a huge parking lot

If we go during the evening we will have to do it Friday or Sunday. Saturday evenings is bike night and all otherr casr clubs litter the parking lot. Finding a spot where we can all park together will be rather hard unless we commit to getting there early enough. Whatever the consensus that day is I will be there.

I can't wait to get back to tampa... looks like we will be able to put together some cool meets. Looks like you guys had some fun.

If we meet Sunday I'm 100% there. but, if we do it Saturday I'm 50/50 on-call for work again

I think sundays work a bit better for most people. I think around like 12:00 or 1:00 in the afternoon would be awesome... we can eat and I dont think the parking lot will be too bad... We just need to make sure Quaker steak is not having some kind of sponsored meet there.

Well it looks like Sunday lunch time is going to be it. Do we have a general vote to go to Quaker Steak? If so I will call and reserve a table.

im down for Quaker

well i just got word that i will be joining the 2nd motor club... hopefully the swap will be done before the meet, if not im coming but prolly just riding along or something. kris, wanna pick me up lol?

I'll pick you def. When this gets set in stone for the meet I will make plans for it.

Well lets call it Aug 9th a Sunday at 11:30 when they first open!

just dropped the car off wesley chapel. could be anywhere from 13 days to 3 weeks so hopefully it should be back for me.

Ill be there Aug 9th.

Good. Do some R&D with it to make sure you aren't getting misfires or running really rich at throttle lift. See you Sunday.

see ya guys on sunday. oh and kris I will send you my address or we will have to work something out to get going (ie me walking down dale maybre with my thumb in the air when you drive by :lol:)

Do you think I should pull the fuse to reset the LTFT?

I'll should be able to swing by :beer05:

Shouldn't have to. If you have a good tune you are going to run rich on throttle lift with out recirc anyway. Just make sure it isnt real bad. But better to run rich than lean. Do you have a datalog tool or a wideband gauge?

I got your address. I'll be by there around 1030. That will give us enough time to get up there.

No I don't have either, at first it was running real rich at throttle lift and would back fire every time. But after drivng a bit it does it less often

but I'm a still adjusting it, I get a little chatter at low boost.

I'll take a look at it. You dont want it too lose or too tight. Your car will learn the fuel trims. I'll bring my wideband gauge and see if we can hook it up real quick to get a feel for what your AFRs look like

I think I might be able to make this one =D

Hey Guys, Look forward to meeting everyone tomorrow. My Son & I am are still coming! It's still at QuakerSteak & Lube on 49th Street right.

You can't fool me twice!

I'd like one. Can you make it so I could have the BHR logo and the pics?

Damn i missed out I had to work. I'll be there next time

dont hate on the salad. it was damn good!

OK, so can we get a Yea or Na on 5pm on Sept 5th?

That would make it 4 weeks away.

Do we want the same place again or somewhere new?

Chris I wasn't hating on the salad. I sure it was very good and filling. Maybe you should have had a grilled chesse with it!

thanks!

I would like the high res one. Don't worry about the banner thing.

i do love grilled cheese

Why is it on the pics that my car is the only one with a friggin car in the background. Damn the luck. Im in for the 5th. The time sounds good. Same place? Hopefully by the 5th Mysql and I can conquer his new 5 star mailbox and he can come with us.

ahahahaha I think the mailbox gives the house a nice manly touch.

About as manly as drinking a pitcher of watered down beer with a nice fresh green salad with chicken strips and low fat dressing.

Don't forget about the diet coke he had on the way over :P

the beer was nowhere near watered down, it was warm but it was still all beer when I consumed it, dont belittle my accomplishments Kris! I went home pretty hammered being in the hot sun and only eating a salad, thus I see the day as a victory :lol:

Don't forget about the diet coke he had on the way over :P

Oh yeah. The one he called a "roadie." LOL. Good times.

It was nice to meeting everyone. I look forward to doing it again.

The large HDR pics are nice. Can't wait till the next meet so we can get more.

Ok so is it just me or are all the pics that vbrad posted missing?

its just you.... if you eat more greens your vision gets better.... i.e. salad

You mean carrots for vision. The salad keeps you regular!

By the way Kris and I voted and the next meet you better have a burger, steak or something like that. If not we are going to have to keep your man card that you lost with that salad you ate.

actually they aren't HDR just a fast crappy edit lol i didnt take the right kind of pics to do HDR but maybe next time...

and adviceinst i emailed you your pic since you couldn't see it

Got it thanks, I will have to borrow my dad's Nikkon now that I see how great the pics look with a nice camera.

:lol2:

ouch mate real ouch

alright so whats the word in Tampa? anyone up to no good:wiggle: just dont tell Kris haha

Are you not working today? I am at work but it is dead here.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA yes of coarse i am at work:bootyshak:bootyshak:bootyshak

whats the word on your car?

(ps i pm'd you back just a min. ago)

Hey any of you guy ever remove your front bumper is that a solo job or should i get an extra set of hands?

Dark it can be done solo. Just put something on the ground to place the bumper on when you are done loosing the bolts. I took mine off in about 10 minutes.

Hey any of you guy ever remove your front bumper is that a solo job or should i get an extra set of hands?

An extra set of hands would reduce the chance that you scratch something. But I did it myself in under 10 minutes. :)

thanx i just got my fog lights i might install them tomorrow or sunday

front bumper is a solo job, but you have to be careful with the sidemarker lights as it can sometimes "stick' as you're moving them around.

hey, you guys going to do another meet in like a few weeks? i am still in the sandbox and would love to actually meet people in Tampa that know more than I do about my car.... oops I obviously can't read... Sept 5th... i should be back in town

Thanx guy looks like tomorrow morning will be go time for the install

Also be careful with the actual fog light itself during installation. I bumped it and it was not useable. Also hook them up prior to installing the bumper again and make sure they work. I put mine back on and then found out. They are a pain if not careful.
