Yo, I'm curious to see how many Hawaii owners we have here. Sound off and post pics!!

As soon I get a chance I'll post my latest.. but here's some from a while ago..

oldie but goodie pic.. no mods at the time of shooting, back in July 03

Hey that looks like my car :)

I've seen 3 other 8s in the last week. I saw a blue one on Saturday night and today I saw a black one (needed a wash bad hehe) parked on the road, and I saw a yellow one driving home.

No sense I post any pics of mine cause it looks identical to yours LOL.

Hahaha.. good point.. How about where ya from..

Moanalua in the hizouse..

I'm in town and the 3 other 8s that I've seen were all in town.

here's mine

now here's mine :)

Saw a silver one today w/ paper plates, still had the monroney on the window.

Wow.. that's a nice pic.. what kind of cam is that...

That place sort of looks familiar.. where is that? The old Sears Dist?

Are you running with no front plates or did you just photochop it out?

Questions galore!

I have a Canon G3 (4 megapixel)...it takes pretty good pics. I took off the front license plate bracket and I plan to leave it off when I get my plates. I think it's illegal in Hawaii to run w/out front plates but there a a bunch of cars on the road that don't have any. There is a Jag in my building driven by a guy in his 50s and he doesn't have a front plate so the heck with it LOL. If you get fined it's only an equipment violation, not a moving violation so it won't affect your insurance.

That pic was taken at a parking lot by Comp USA on Keawe St. I posted a whole bunch of pics in the gallery forum.

Are you using Zaino? There is only one guy in Hawaii selling Zaino and he sells out of his house in Aiea. The Zaino Store will not ship to Hawaii so you have to go to the Hawaii distributor.

LOL, that silver one might have been me, picked up my plates on 23th tho (I think), pics are here:

sorry about the bad quality, I borrowed the cam.

btw, I'm from Mililani ;)

I think I've just seen that silver one you meant. It was crusing down to the northshore while I was just coming back up.

There aren't too many silver ones, are there? I've seen only 2 so far (incl mine)

Yep.. Zaino all the way....... the one and only dealer is Joie in Aiea.. Nice guy..

Yes not too many silvers.. I have seen about 3 greys, 1 red, 1 blue, 1 yellow. Maybe those guys will fess up and join this post.

Not from HI, but visit there often. Last August I saw a red 8 in the KTA parking lot in Kailua-Kona -- it was an automatic. Otherwise it was identical to mine.

just found an gray / GT. It kinda feels ackward, as soon as I see "another one", I get pissed. Let's hope Mazda stops manufacturing :D

Maybe it was RX-Nut? He has a GT. It couldn't have been me cause I don't have the GT.

Hey guys,

New to this forum just picked up my winning blue rx8 on Octoeber 21st. I was just wondering if the HI owners were going to start up a club and if any of you have bought any after market wheels yet?

Is the Black one on this board? I saw him turning to Circuit City (Pearl City) this morning, around 11am. He had sun glasses on, I was right behind him in my silver, decided to take a different route, should have met or something, my bad ;)

I read somwhere they're having a Rotary Run.. dunno if I wanna be with that crowd though. All the youngins and ricers.. Hmm.

COOL.. what's do-luck?

hmmmm.....i don't know about the little kids.....seems that the rotaries are a little too expensive for them. the ones that do have them are prolly not in the rice category (sp?).

anyway black GT1 moanalua area checking in.......just got my REAmemiya full exhaust installed. big inprovment on the top end.

when would be the first RX8 cruise in Hawaii history be? aloha!!

Moanalua hmm... anywhere near Salt Lake building area.. I think I might have seen you.. do you have the rear spoiler?

no spoiler here.....thinking about the mazdaspeed or veilside. aloha

Titanium Grey with appearance package in Waipio. Have had my car for a while but just joined / found the form. I have already done my intake and stereo system. No pic but I know all you guys know what the car looks like...hehe. I recommend the intake but it sounds real different!!

Ooh.. what intake? what stereo?

If any of you try the CZ Stage 1, let me know.. I wanna be a passenger if you do.

I just upgraded the factory speakers with pioneers...cause they fit...and put a 10 inch sub (kicker CVR). I also put in the K&N typhoon....it is pretty awesome.....

thread revival xD wooot... this might be considered and ultra-revival lol

wondering about other 8 owners here on the island of oahu have seen alot but have just seen 2 friendly owners. others are snobs or probably just wasn't looking.

well I'm gonna bump this thread again......lol
I'm trying to find the best dealer here on the island to take my 8 to.....

any suggestions from folks here would be appreciated.....

ill be back aug 1st...havent been there in 3 years

I just got here too. I'm over in Hawaii Kai and I've seen several 8's in the parking lot of the Safeway. I'm looking for a mechanic, might have a line on one, I'll post again if I get a recommendation.

Not too many of us Oahu 8 owners around here eh? :lol:

I am here.... I'll be back in HI in a month or so.

There are quite a few 8 owners - not too many on this forum though.

Best Dealer - JN Mazda - talk to Jason (Sales Manager) - and tell 'em Kane sent you.
Best Rotary Mechanic - Munkey Wurks - talk to Sean (Owner) - and tell 'em I said what's up.

Oh I see, you went on vacation or is it military duty?

True that, its unfortunate that they aren't on here.

And by the way Kane, did you happen to put your 8 in the car show at Pearl Harbor this past 4th of July?

Maybe - I am in FL for Military School.

My car is being shown at Ron's - they might have brought it over... click my sig and you tell me.

Ahh I see, best of luck to you down there! Hope it goes smoothly for you.

Yep, that's definitely your 8 that I saw, she's a real beaut!

And another thing if I may ask you. When you return if you have any free time and whatnot is it possible you could perhaps check out my 8? And make bestow some of your knowledge upon me? I'd really like to learn more from someone personally when it comes to 8's. :worship:

I also met your friend Danny a while back at the time when I was searching around for an 8, he mentioned about your 8 on how much of a monster it is and also how you serviced his engine for him.

Not a problem dude - when I get back we have to at least have one more RX8 meet up before I PCS out of there.... details to follow!

Alright cool man, I look forward to all of this!

Im back, in Kaneohe.

My car wont be here til like 3-4 more weeks :/

Ouch, it must be a pain separated from your beloved 8 eh? :lol:

Well hope she gets here with no problems. And then call up a cruise!

hell yah im down for a cruise...were is everyone at?

I'm around the Salt Lake area.

I am in Florida...

Can't cruise without the master Kane! :D:

I shall be home soon.

Sweet. Awaiting your arrival!

Be sure to check out forumshawaii too - they have a mazda meet monthly out there.

my car hasnt even gotten shipped yet!!!

ive been pulling my hair out

Dang dude, that sucks. They better step up their game! Its a crime to deprive one of their 8 don't they know?

Howzit. Sorry crappy cell phone pic.

Looks like some people are coming out of the wood work.

That they are.
