It is from Autoexe. I notice it for a while and was thinking that it is only for the new model, but no there is one for the old model as well.

I am tempted. However, it does not allow the use of the tow hook . So it is semi useless. 80000 yen plus shipping from Japan. Please ozzie dollar please come up.

My next mod is probably something different anyway. Saving more for a big project in the next 2 years.

One of the better looking plastic fantastics but still don't see the point.

What's the project Taka? FI? You've got everything else on the car ready for it. Surely the only thing left for the Takamobile...

I thought I told you that I am going to strip my RX-8 once I get my new daily driver (now become a 135i ) at the end of the year.

It will be a race car that will not be able to rego. No EPA is not an issue . Bigger tubro , V mount radiator and relocation of battery to the back .

Sounds like a semi-automatic gearbox is on the card too .... (my wife just getting a knife now so I shall stop).

I've been owner-trained longer than you and also had mini-terrorists for longer. Trust me, both are a drag on your car pursuits...

So get in quick before 'er indoors decides you've had enough fun and it's time to grow up and be sensible.

So you think my dream of GTR in the future will be diminish? Oh no...

Hey compare to most specialist driving 911 turbo and Maserati, I prob aim a bit low and remain sensible. I only do this move when I know I am about to double my salary.

Hahaha, I agree Taka - we're both very sensible compared to some of our colleagues. Mind you - how much of their stuff do they actually own? Not much usually...

You'll get your GTR - keep working...
