i've added 19x8.5 rims and brand new tires, replaced my spark plugs, coils, and just bought a set of slotted/painted hub rotors with Hawk HPS pads since we started talking about the possibility of a meet

 

Paretti has an R3. Black. I was all happy. Looks very nice. I wanna get a chance to visit when they are open and check out the seats. If it's comfy, I'm game. Looking at August 2010. Unfortunately, I might have to wait. The 2010 models are supposed to have a 15B. I could go for that. R3 with 15B. Moar powah!

 

alright, add a K&N air filter to the list.. by the time we meet, i'm gonna have a straight turbo charger

 

what's a 15b? and what do we have? i actually tried to google it and your post came up as a reference lol

 

just a lil heads up....there is a mazda car meet at lafinear park this sunday. 11am tnl incase any of u wanna come.

 

Hey guys,

I haven't been on the local forum in ages. Have only been checking info in the tech garage for a CEL and which tires are good/affordable lately. Anyone around here found a steal on tires? I'm getting REAL close to needing a new set.

 

We have a 13B. 1.3L. So 15B is 1.5L.

 

Call Keith at Ray Brandt on the Westbank. 504-363-1405.

I got Kumho tires from him for a decent price. I wanted to go back with the Nittos that I had on the car, but I got maybe a little over 10K miles on them for everyday driving. That sucks.

 

lets have a meet

Calling All Louisiana 8 Owners
So heres the deal, my RP SuperCat may be dead so I have to send it off to RP so they can have a look at it and possible get a new one to me. The only problem is that I have to pay $100 for my local shop to take it off, then I will have to pay them another $100 to put it back on when I get the new one. I am tying to save up for the Cobb AP and that 200 is big. So if there is anyone that is willing to help me with the Cat removel and instillation I would really appreciate it. I would be more than happy to offer some cash for your help. If anyone is interested just let me know. Thanks

 

For one of u guys, i'll let em go for $800. Anyone else $950-1000....
They cost 1100 new, after shipping, and that doesn't count installation *if your not a do it yourselfer*


But i'm still here, still in it. I plan to still be around, even without my 8 heh.

 

no help?

 

I guest not lol

 

You guest not?

Man, I really wish I had a nice weekend to clean my car. I wanna have nothing to do except sit out with the buffer and get that car shiny clean.

Alrite...I need to get back to trying to finish a part of a project so I can go into work tomorrow and work on other parts of the project.

Actually, maybe I should just go to bed and dream of detailing my car and wake up early to end of year hell.

/edit: from the other day:

 

greg985, ya should have just asked, I live in the same damn town you do! And I have a shop.. I mean come on lol.

Let me know if ya still need to do this, also do you have the stock one to replace it with for the time being while its being sent off? thanks.

 

Silly question. Have any of you noticed that Castrol 5W20 is in short supply? I went to 6 different auto parts store to find some.

 

Hmmm, didn't notice that, its pretty easy to find around Lafayette.. the autozone on pinhook always has castrol gtx 5w-20 in stock.

You can also order it online, a case is cheap as hell, and it will last you a hell of a longer time!

 

For GOD'S SAKE don't run 5W-20, at least 5W-30 or 10W-30. Your engine will love ya for it!!

 

Haha I live in BR... I think I'm like one of the two yellow RX-8's running around, lol..

 

Jpaul I live in BR I have a winning blue 8. Its in the shop right now. I got hit from behind. I got pics of it on the last page.
