I saw a really nice and clean Yellow RX8 last night......sadly it was being driven by a 120 year old lady.

 

o_o; guess i'll be watching the weather forecast very very carefully.

 

My kit came pre-painted.

 

Well...I guess we should have another meet for those who want to use my datalogger (useful to those with the AP) before I go home. But i'll be busy until after sept 12th.

Midpipe + AP = best (and only) mods i've ever done to a car (NA that is) Makes me wonder how much more power (for reasonable costs) the engine can get...I guess maybe flywheel might be the only thing, unless if with an I/E and the upcomming RB header the AP can extract much more power out of it...

 

Cool thanks for the heads up...
I still think autobahn is the best front bumper. But I think I may just get ms front and call it a day...

Im up for a meet...Im bored out of my mind...

The summer tires arent THAT bad in low temps. I drove on them till mid-november last year, because I was being lazy.

 

Stopped next to a guy and his girlfriend in an indigo 8 in Garrison Woods today. Was that anyone here?

 

the ss rx8 i always see isnt you. cuz i just saw that car and the driver when he was coming into the underground parking. I was in my car and i waved but he ignored. when i came back just now, i looked close to the car and i found out it looked different than urs. it doesnt have stock body parts and the wheels are different too. He is an Asian. i am kinda wondering who he is cuz that was the guy who cut in my lane last time. BTW, he has been kinda rude cuz he revved the car couple times when he saw me.

 

I told ya buddy...I'd never do that to a fellow 8-er....but I think on this forum I only seen one other member and that's Slowlude....

 

I saw a TI-gey 8 at the Co-op gas station in the Hamptons....lady driver...anyone on here???

 

I started to hate the guy with the SS rx8 i mentioned above there. He revved his car every ****** time when i drove by. I am sorry, i tried to be friendly everytime i seen him, but i dont know what he was trying to do or what kinda info he wanted to transfer by that f**king noisy exhaust?

 

i saw a great looking yellow RX-8 with the body kit on it . it was on Deerfoot South turning off onto Dunbow Road.. Anyone on here own it, wouldnt mind asking you a few questions...

 

Saw Daemos today going north on 36th ST at lunch time. I could tell it was him because i saw the Manitoba plates on the front of his car. When i lived in Saskatchewan they had the same thing but i think they got rid of that there now.

 

Yep, saw SpecialBlend, was on my way to get my oil change/general inspection before I leave in a couple weeks ^_^

Those rims really clean =)

 

Ya i really like the rims as well, i think next year i am going to get some tint, tein s-techs and either the oem or the mazdaspeed spolier

 

I guess that would be me. I live in Heritage Pointe (Lake) so that's the route I take every night. Thanks for the compliment - I have a Mazdaspeed body kit.

saw a grey rx8 heading down university drive around 5:30 this afternoon. it was driven by a girl...who was it?? I didnt know there was a grey rx8 in university driven by a girl....

 

Saw a black 8 with the mazda upgraded rims and i could tell that it had a cold air intake at sunridge mall while i was picking up some new driving shoes. And i bought a RP shortshifter yesterday . Can't wait tell it gets here. woot.

 

The RP shifter is a great product man. but i cant tell difference anymore if i dont try stock again but i dont remember where i left my stock shifter at. its a good mod and a good choice for money spent.

 

just saw a silver 8 got pulled over on deerfoot by 2 cop cars... sucks

 

k, this thread has been dead for a long time but i am so excited to post this time.
Just followed a BLACK R3 on crowchild 8:20-8:30 pm, it looked pretty nice from the back. I didnt like the back before but damn, i love that LEDs, it stood out among a lot of cars. I firstly thought it was a GTR R35, when i drove closer, damn, it was a R3!! Anyways, lady driven, BF beside (i am assuming the guy beside was her BF). Hope you join our meet the next time, I like ur car. Its my first time seeing a r3 at night actually. ur the coolest！！

 

Speaking of R35...I've seen 2 of them in Calgary now. A white one and a red one. Sad to say, but they don't stand out. Each time I see them I go..."What is that? Looks so weird. Oh...It's a R35...looks like a boat"
It doesn't help that the red one was going about 50kmh on Country Hills, it was driven by an older guy though.

 

Who else can afford the maintenance costs of an R35? Apparently turning off VDC voids the transmission warranty on the GTR =/ WTF?

 

I read about that. From what I understand though, there's a blockbox on the R35 so obviously Nissan had some sort of evidence, enough so to void the warranty. In a few R35 reviews, it has been noted that the launch procedure is quite harsh. So if this owner launched frequently and whatnot it's not amazing that the tranny gave out so early and would get his warranty voided.

 

I have seen many GTR on the street already but I have yet to see the new 8 on the road. I think the new 8 might be a tad rarer than the GTR

Today I saw a white GTR for the first time.... all previous ones were either red or silver.

 

I've seen a black? R3 on the road, lady driven....
A black? and a blue R3 at the new Mazda dealer up in NW...

What's rare is the 2009 non-R3s...I haven't seen ANY of those on the dealer lots or on the road.
