Anyone coming out tonight? Late to post I know, I was busy today! Anyway I don't even need a wash, but I'm just keen to get out, so I'll swing by the Valleymede Shell. Maybe we can hit up some eats?

 

Im in a bit of a situation here lol. My car wash pass (card) fell right in between my window sill and ive been trying to get it out all day. Ive managed to remove the door panel but theres a secondary panel that needs to be removed and im having a heck of a time removing that one. ANyone will to help me tonight id really appreciate it. Im also looking for people who know what they are doing lol. No offence guys.

 

I'll be in the area, so maybe i'll swing by. But probably busy with friends.

 

Anyone willing to try help me remove the inner door panel ??

 

LOL i'd love to! but i have no idea how to do so x_X

 

Bahhh sorry I missed out, something came up.

Wow sorry to hear that Rotary-RX8. Even an old car is bad enough getting the door panel off, I can't imagine tackling this one. If you get it, post some pics! :D

 

^ I managed getting the door panel off but theres another little panel im trying to get off. FML there went my friday night,

 

maybe you can ask in the rx8 DIY forum...sorry to hear that and good luck!

 

Ye i did man. I actually managed to get the damn thing out saturday night. It was a pain in the *** but its good to know how to get the thing off now.

 

Man I wanna meet more club members, but sux my 8 is put away till the weather is clear of snow

 

Dude, summer car away is no reason to miss out the winter meets, just bring the winter car to the car wash meets and hang! (Unless of course, you don't have a winter car ... In which case, I just feel bad for you. XD )

Anyway, since there's no posts for tonight, I'm gonna hit that indoor wash instead. If anyone else catches this, feel free to join. Kennedy, south of hwy7, 10pm sharp.

 

The bad: not only no one at the Kennedy station, but I swung by the Valleymede station at like ten-to, and nobody there either!

The good: that Kennedy station is sweet! Huge indoor bay with like 12 stalls, toasty-warm inside, and a good washer setup. The price is 85c per minute (75 if you buy gas), so the price has risen quite a bit from my initial interest, but I ended up doing a complete wash and wax, and it came out to 7$ (and I was at a pretty relaxed pace!) Significantly, the guy said if they're empty, you can dry for free. And the place was literally empty the whole time I was there, so I got some swank treatment. Best of all, it's open 24hours.

I bet a big group of us in there would make a sweet Markham meet! Man, wish I'd take some pics ... Anyway, you guys have got to check this out.

 

Thnaks maitre for your input..... I went to that Kennedy Shell station (Beside Markham Honda) the other day, but saw no one washing there, I didn't bother to go in and ask for more info or details..... Would definitely go there to wash sometime.....

 

Anyone know where there is a cheaper alternative to getting codes scanned from my car than bringing to dealership?

 

I think (don't hold me to this) but PartSource scans codes for free.

 

you can get an obdc ii scanner for about 10 bucks off of ebay.. just look for an elm327 chipset.

 

I think a few members have a code scanner and can provide free scanning sometime...

 

Thanks for suggestions guys! Also, you guys know of any good parking lots to go drifting in? lol

 

Hey guys!

Just got my 8 a week ago and I gotta say I love it...A LOT!! I live in the North York area (Jane & Steeles to be exact) so I'll be looking forward to upcoming meets and seeing some members here on the street! I drive an 06 sunlight silver GT thats a 6MT. My main chill spots are Weston and Highway 7 and especially and I cannot stress the "especially" enough the Commerce Gate/Go4T/Destinys/FMP areas in Richmond Hill/Markham...so ye enough rambling lol, just wanted to say hi to everyone in here.

Looking forward to learning a lot on this forum,

Abdi-San

 

welcome abdi-san..if weather is nice on Friday we usually do a quick winter washing meet at the gas station close to commerce gate (more like diagonal of Ten-Ren)..

 

Much obliged Kafka! for now the weather doesnt look to good on friday..a mixture of rain and snow...

 

Adbi-san, are you chinese?

 

Oh no lol I'm actually from África LOL im just semi asian-washed because of the neighbourhood/people i grew up and around with.

 

I got a scanner (ScanGaugeII)

 

Not exactly the weather for a wash today, is it? (If anything, my car is already clean, just from parking outside ...)

Any interest in a Tim's meet though? I might be out at 16th anyway, but not sure yet. But if anyone's game, I'll go too.
