Is anything going on Soon? Cold weather is driving me nuts not having any stuff going on. I usually use this for Troubleshooting/DIY's - not much networking. My 8 buddies got rid of theirs! Traitors lol jk. Victorino & JSSTABLUR -

 

I'm heading your guys way on the 1st for the meet. Hope to see more 8's than me.

 

yep a get together on jan 1 for all rotaries. 2pm Ted's mexican food. finalizing which local now.

 

Awesome! I just found this thread. Ill definitely try to make it

 

Edmond

Just purchased an 2008 RX8 w/ 7,000 miles and no mods, except for custom rims. This is a great car. I hope to make it out to Ted's.

 

hello all! my car is still down and waiting for paint. took the parts to the painters today and hope to have them in a week or so. The INGS front finally came in after 3 months! the fitment is great, didnt have to do much work to it. while the fenders are off, I am attempting a wire tuck of those two large cable runs over the fenders. I am also hiding my 0 gauge stereo power cable. BTW, have two batteries now under the hood. I also shaved the trunk of all emblems and removed the spoiler. Better check your spoiler if you have a factory one, mine had rubbed two major spots into the top of the trunk and had started to rust, paint was also coming up.
will post pics when it is back together.
let me know what mods you all are working on. Thanks,Tom

 

Hey Tom, glad to hear from you again. I'm ordering my MS rear bumper this week. I need to finish ordering guages, injectors and a new Cobb, so that I can get my greddy kit installed by this summer.

What brand are your lambo doors? I'm thinking about getting a set.

 

Hey Jim! greddy kit? wow! that will be nice. i seen a guy has one for sale on the forum, looks legit. as for the door kit, verticaldoors.com is about the best one out there, LSD is also very nice, but also very expensive. I have had my kit on now for about 5 years when they first started offering it. let me know it that is the way you decide to go. i have alot of tips on the install, you can definitely do it yourself.
where in the world did you find a MS kit? I could not find a true MS kit for mine, even in a different color to have painted. That is why I had to go with the INGS Spec 1 front, kinda glad i did now, it is really gonna look nice.

 

im gonna be ready for spring and would definitely like to get together with everyone in the OKC and take some pics. it seems as though every time i want to make one of the BBQ's or meets something happens to my car!

 

Has anyone attempted a wire tuck on the 8? I have about a week to get this done before the parts get painted. any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

I got the kit from my mechanic a kid here in town bought a turbo 8, untuned and proceeded to blow it up. He bought the car to rebuild and sell. I'm getting the kit with install for 3k. As for the MS rear bumper, I'm buying a replica so that I can get a full bumber. The MS rear just attaches to the bottom of the stock rear. Some asshat hit my bumper at the Shinedown concert and cracked it. Then just drove off. I've been looking at INGs side skirts. I need a shorter skirt to match my front bumper. I can't stand having the skirts lower. It needs to be level.

 

better pull that exhaust housing off the turbo and check for damage on the turbine wheel since the motor it was on exploded.

 

Thanks for the heads. I will definitely do that. He pushed the water gaskets, so hopefully no shrapnel in the exhaust. I think the apex seals are still intact.

 

NP, I would hate for you to pay for it only to find out it wasn't what you bargained for.

 

How's it going guys? I live in Edmond and I've owned a black 07 for a few months now. I'd be interested in going to the next meet, count me in.

 

Ok guys, the date for the Texas8 has been set. I hope some of you guys will make the journey down to SA. I will be leaving Tulsa on thurs March 31 for Dallas and will roll out with the NTX crew to SA on fri. Hope to see some new faces. You won't be dissappionted.

 

I'll be at the Mile the weekend before running a FD we just picked up. Gonna be a fun build. Have fun at the Texas8.

We need another get together. I know a couple of the guys were talking about running down to southeastern OK through what little mountains we have.

 

You too. Hope you don't have a weekend like the Gallardo guy.

Come on guys, someone has to be up for the texas8. There's at least 2 going from Tulsa, maybe 3. You'll never find a better group than the NTX and SARX crews.

 

Car is back together!!!!! back on the road, until this dang snow and ice storm blew in! Hope everyone made it through this thing without any dings or damage.

I was able to tuck cables on the passenger side under the fender and re routed my 1/0 gauge power cable under the driver side fender for a neater layout. very satisfied with the INGS Spec 1 front and love my trunk deck lid shaved, NO EMBLEMS or spoiler, finally!

 

I'm going to post my old Raven front nose piece up for sale, cheap, due to the damage on the nose part. it can be fixed, but could be bolted up for use if someone wanted to. it is the one in my avatar image. probably going to ask $100. fitment is 9 out of 10, rest of the paint is excellent, with rock guard along the bottom lip. the rock guard is painted black, did the same thing on my new one, an experience thing from having my first one repainted twice! it also survived a couple of curb touches because of the rock guard.

I also have the OEM B black front, scratches though, if someone is interested in it.

 

Glad to hear she's back together. You should bring her to Texas and run the sisters with us.

 

I would love to make the Texas run, but a little too far for me. Plus, sadly, I'm unemployed and dont know what job I will have by then, and if I can take off for the drive. Hoping that something comes along soon. If anyone knows of a CEO/management position open in a manufacturing or industrial service setting, please let me know.

The good thing is, I have had PLENTY of time to work on the 8!

I'm gearing up for the IFO shows, and will most definitely make the Tulsa event this year, maybe even the DFW one. keep me in touch on any big shows in your area.

 

I will be at the Texas8! Leaving from Tulsa hopefully the 31st too. If not, will leave EARLY Friday morning to meet the Dallas peeps and then cruise on down with them

 

so whens the next meet?

 

I am in Tulsa, but always down for a cruise to OKC...just let me know when
