does anyone have the OEM Mazda badge for the rear trunk? This dude wants to swap trunks but he wants the OEM Mazda badge and RX-8 badge (which I removed) on my trunk. I am assuming teh dealer will chareg a grip. I have the Mazda badge but it is at my dads house.

OK so let me get this stright....

You got your car back with a new engine and it will not run becouse of a short the shop caused and they will not repair it? I am really sorry man it sounds like you got some really bad work done.

Obviously 6k isn't going to cover the cost of any of those cars. Not to be too nosey, but how can you afford to be throwing so much money around? You must have found a pretty good job or something lol.

Why that selection of cars? The S2k is a great car but seems out of place when your other options are turbocharged AWD 4 door/seats. All great cars though, sure you'll be happy with whatever you pick.

Hey bro...you getting her together? I see all your goodies are inbound. How is it going?

I have a trip planned for the track tomorrow so I can get the race tires heat cycled...just gonna do a partial session to get them up to temp then let them cure for a week or so. Then they should be ready to take a beating without shredding too much on me. We'll see!

Starting next month I have funds set aside for tracking every other weekend for all of 2010. Really excited about it!

2010 needs to be the year to get some 8s out there.

Nice!! I plan on getting my suspension stuff done by the end of January, I would like to get some progress sways before then too. I should have my cosmetic stuff done this weekend (swapping trunks tonight ) I am definitely looking forward to running sessions with you. I'm trying to get some bills paid up as well so I can take the L1 class and get some sessions in.

Yeah, I haven't installed any of my mods . It's so hilarious because no one has really noticed my car is now spoilerless and of all people my mom spots it right away and says how much she loves it.
