Yeah we will still do something. My fault for not keeping everyone informed.. the weather has been such crap I think it's been the right call not to do anything up till now. I'll look at the forecast for next weekend later in the week.

There's a steep learning curve and a lot of reading still to be done.
Key concern right now is my low compression engine that's under warranty. I really want it to let go before just before I'm ready to install the turbo (prob about 4 months till I'll be ready). You avail for a mazdaedit tune around then?

Sorry for thread jack.

Was really just hoping you knew what you were getting yourself into . But let me know before you install - I can help make it all work out the way it should

Any updates on the next meet up?
Bad news also, we're looking at selling the RX8 in the next couple of months.
Looking at replacing it with a Mazda 6 when we get a dog (It was either the RX8 or the RX7, sadly I'm not rich enough to keep both)

Makes sense postponing the next gathering tho as the weather really hasn't been playing ball this summer (ha! what summer?)

And yeah we're not looking forward to getting rid of her for a more sensible ride but it has to be done.
