Not a member yet. Working on a lot of puzzles at the moment.

If I go, I wonder if they'll take batteries in lieu of cash? The timekeepers were doing a mad scramble for all sizes for the timer, walkie-talkies and anything else alkaline-cell juiced.

Have Duracells(tm), will cone-kill?

 

Got my helmet today, F-in awesome,,,, I already have a paint scheme in mind and you definately feel like the Stig when you wear it lol....

 

Hey Greg what kind of helmet did you get?! I dunno if anyone is gonna paint it for you but I can get it painted for you through where I work.... Hit me up and let me know! Shoot me some pics of your new helmet...

 

Its a Pyrotect,,, I got a paint guy, I m gonna be taking in to him next week...
But if that doesnt work out I'll make sure to hit ya up...
Im going to be painting it like the Furai... gonna be sick...
im probably gonna need some vinyl for the logos I want on though so after its painted I will probably end up bringin over to your shop...

 

Hey guys, Jesse from Linthicum here. Just got my 8, already in the shop. Basically the dealership didnt know what they were selling, the synch was bad on 2nd. I only got about a weeks worth of driving in before i had to take it in. Its been in the shop for almost 3 weeks now. Just wondering- would that amount of time be normal? The mechanic said it should be done tomorrow.

 

All depends on the dealership...

Welcome to the club,,, when you get it back on the road we got alot of meets and shows that we'll be goin to if you want to join us...

 

Thanks! Sure do!

 

Just let me know what you need and I will take care of it for you!

 

Check out my new sig!




I'm getting my car back (again) tomorrow. They fixed the crooked trunk in ONE DAY whereas they had it for 4 weeks before and couldn't fix it then. Three people took my car out for a test drive and couldn't hear a rattle (miraculous!). And did you know that it's perfectly normal for tail lights to fill up with water?

I've pretty much gotten over the whole thing. I'll just be replacing it soon. Keep your eyes out for an '06 and up (not '09.. yuck) white gt mt and let me know if you stumble across one I might be interested in

 

there is a white 06 8 at len stoler. has low miles it is a 6 speed though, umm cloth and is in decent shape.... just letting ya know about it

its on the last page of listings.

 

I got my Shinka from some guys up in DE that specialize in import cars. You might want to check them out, I feel like I got a pretty solid deal. unitedautosales.com

It's a small dealership, I liked the guys there a lot and didn't feel super pressured to make a decision on the spot. They were also happy to pick me up at the DE train station to come get the car when I bought it.

yup Im already on the list... there is an entire thread for this meet...

 

hey JLjuice you gonna come out for our sushi night???...

 

Sure!! What are the details?

 

Hey locals, I'm buying into the dipstick light and getting one for RX8convert22 also. Anybody else in the Bel Air or Timonium area interested? Save a few bucks on the thing and shipping.


As for April 26, sounds like fun, but there's an SCCA Autocross that day at FedEx. FedEx is fun because courses there are fast enough to fully utilize second gear. RX-8 is tough to autocross on shorter courses - either needs a much taller or much shorter final drive...

 

My boyfriend will be there... with his civic! He bought r-comps for it about 4 weeks before he bought the rx-8 and refuses to take the 8 to autox or summit point. Please point and laugh at him since I will be unable to attend.

 

WEll everyone tomorrow is the big day of Judgement,,, got all my paperwork sorted out everything Im gonna say my lawyer has a solid plan lets all cross our fingers

Wish me luck....
