1200: Lost my RAYS lug nut key, accidentally left it in the security lug nut and drove away after I changed my spark plug and installed the RS*R springs on the front, purchased a new one and spotted this TiGrey parked next to Upgrade Motoring on Tampa in Northridge.

Funny you asked. I just got back from working on them, not necessarily the springs but my Camber/Caster set-up. My car was steering to the left after I installed the rear springs/struts, so it was obvious the alignment there was askew. Anyway, looked at it tonight and this is what I found.

Left Total Toe-in was close to the max positive setting.


Compared to the right which I assume is the factory setting.


Dialed it in to a setting I feel I am comfortable with and I'm a happy camper again.




Car is a little bouncy at slow speeds; besides, being annoyed by the speed bump at parking lots, everything's fine. Definitely need to replace those OEM Tokicos though.

So do you know the feeling when you're either a) about to get a new car, or b) just got a new car, and you tend to notice more of that model all around you? I just realized that, other than my own , I've only seen 2 other 8's in person.

Where are all of the AZ valley Rx-8 owners???????

Yeah, I just like how rare it is. And I've used the brand in the past for my Corolla AE-92 and AE-101. Also, I finally put on the Carbign Craft CF Backing on the license plate frame which have been sitting in the closet for almost three months.

Red RX-8 with black stock wheels, stock white RX-8, and a black RX-8 with black stripes on the side quarter-panel as well as green LED lights behind the plastic pillar on the fenders at the Simi Valley WKLY meet. Most RX-8s I've ever seen at a car meet...

I drove out to Rio Salado Gun Club yesterday and saw three others. One yellow one I've seen a few times, with a black bra on the front for some reason, one grey one, and a nice black one with plate ALZRX8. I have a white Shinka with plate ROTORZ.
