Hey folks,

Just thought I'd let ya know that after 5 months or so of looking into a RX-8 I finally took the plunge and bought a 2004 Titainum Grey GT.

*ahem* w00t!

Cya all at the next meet... without the Tib!

 

Congrats!!!!

 

Congratulation.. I must admit I was beginning to wonder if it was ever going to happen

The Tib finally sold I take it.

 

Hey, I'm doing a detailing session today.... hhehehehhe

 

Welcome the club... let the mods begin

 

Nice man I like that colour!

Oh and Footman come detail my car! I need a pro to show me how it's done

 

Oh god, my body is wrecked.. just finished a 6 hour detailing job.. CLAY, 3-step meguiars, plasticx, back to black, blue-magic, tires/rims, windows.... holy ******* TIRED!!!!

 

you should have come over to my place we could have done it in my drive way. Only washed mine today, I'm not speedy gonzalez like u.

 

Photo it next time just like that gallardo post I showed u ... :P

 

That gallardo was insane, I did pick up a few extra things in my routine that I didn't do before.

- Interior cleaning now includes vents using Q-tips
- Exterior front grille, rear bumper grille, and fender vents now are deep cleaned with a soft brush to agitate the dirt
- Wheel lugs area, previously only wiped and cleaned with soap as far as my terry cloth can reach, but now can also be deep agitated with soft brush.

My arms are so ripped now...

I seriously need that cordless polisher from Simoniz to make it less tiring!

 

Welcome to the cult.... er i mean club. Soon you will be modding the heck out of it!

 

hahah...thanks for the congrats guys. For those that don't come out to the install meets I've been a token member for like the past 6 months (I've helped install like 1/4 of the GTA dude's exhausts etc in that time-frame.. hahah).

As for the tib.. unfortunately I couldn't sell it privately.. no one wanted to buy it... so I just ate the loss and bought the 8 instead.

Anyways... yeah.. lovin' the car... but... it looks like she's got a bit of a weak clutch that will have to be replaced within a year or so (pending on driving.. so i'm gonna say like 4 months for me). Other then that it's in great shape.

Thanks to Proj we slapped in the K&N filter in last night so she has a bit of a grumble now.

Mod wish list as follows:
1) rotary accents
2) interior LEDs
3) exterior LEDs
4) Air ram duct
5) MS Exhaust
6) OEM wing
etc etc

 

^ First mod should be short shifter and don't forget Tein S Tech springs to get the 8 to its proper height

 

Congrats Faded!

It took a bit of time, but at least you're one of us now.

We'll hook up soon.

 

Congrats! You finally did it!

 

hahah... remember Neo... I still own an FCS5.... yes... it's pratically dead... but I still own one

Larger shot of the car... thanks to Josh
