I was wanting to get home and start disassembling my dash for my prosport gauge and s. tech install this weekend. Instead, another driver decided that my front bumper would look better imbedded in her passenger side door
Pics will come later...

Flooded my RX-8... Just after an elderly woman suggesting "call the Auto Club", the engine starts!

Moved it for the first time in 3 days...from the garage to the driveway. I needed room to roll newspapers out of the sun.

spent far too long removing my front bumper to install an AEM CAI, whilst at it, decided i didnt want oil getting inside my new piping so i made a catch can by zip tying a 330ml bottle to a random pipe and used the stock hose from the oil neck and put it in the bottle neck lol

Installed an AP midpipe and NGK plug wires. After 92k mi. the stock cat was blown out and the plug wires (front trailing) fell victim to a critter.

I also have that midpipe. Unfortunately the rasp it makes at 4k rpm is so bad that I put back the stock cat. I might combine a new exhaust with it in the future but the AP midpipe alone is ewwwwww

So i finally gave in and bought a AFE SS. Put it in this morning and needless to say, I'm quite happy with it.

Also last week i ended up replacing my rotors and pads.
I went with Racing Brake 1-Piece Open Slot Rotors and Hawk Performance Ceramic Brake Pads all around.
I'm happy with both of these as well.
