Excellant to hear, Miss8, I'm hoping we can get around 20 or more people to come along to the RX8 Mystery tour.
Maybe you should get an auto electrician to do a reading of your OBD2 and just check why your CEL light is on.
Lets hope for some good weather for our day out.

Cool

Yay the CEL has gone off *high five to that*

BTW last weekend I had a race (rolling start) with a late model Subaru, and tied, I was actually surpirsed at how exact the performance was between the cars, from start to finish.

But I redeemed myself with my other beast.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRR ANOTHER coil needs replacing waaaa waaa

The 8 would not start this morning and tried the flooding procedure to no avail so dad came to my rescue and came to the conclusion that another coil needs replacing

To top things off my brothers car got stolen this morning from Pakuranga.

Over today already

We look forward to seeing the "Other Beast" at the RX8 mystery tour.

Miss8 I hope you manage to get your coil sorted before the day.
If you get stuck and need a coil to borrow, just let me know as I have a spare set.

Hope everyone is looking out for RX8 owners that might be keen on our Mystery tour.

Regards

Rotaman
