anyone make the show in Austin yesterday? Good friend of mine went and posted up some pics on facebook, sadly it looked like the same tired stuff I see all the time, g35's, z's, and scions everywhere. Oh well, would have loved to go but my truck had cooling issues and I didn't feel like taking my car up there with my interior half taken apart right now. (doh!) Left my 2 cents in the terch thread, I'll never understand why people lie to try and make themselves look cool, it's never worked ever since the beginnings of the earth pretty much

No man, I am going to wait until I get the new calipers in and then do both cars. For now i just used Prestone fluid. My old fluid was nasty though.

MMMM yea I'm due for a fluid flush myself. Most likely going to tackle that with everything else, I'm a little lazy.

Thoughts on this?

http://www.lubricheck.com/index.html

I thought I would run this by the SARX Bubbas instead of muddying the waters (or the oil) in 9Ks oil analysis thread.

Interesting but 30 minutes out of my day and $20 isn't enough reason to buy some fancy device. I change my oil at 3k regardless.

Let's all chip in on it and then test it at Biffs. I will still change mine every 3,000 miles but it would be interesting to see if this thing works.

I ordered one. I am a backer so I get one as soon as they go into production. You'll see a picture of my 8 if you click here.
