Of course, all my miles disappear...it's like getting a new...odometer! lol.

I may just live without a tach.
Well since its that old just buy an aftermarket one and tie it in

I might just wonder down to circuit city for the hell of it MINI-MEET

Yep it was good to finally meet Tim. And he even seems normal, lol!

So what's 04's news? Is "good" just being kind? Oh, lord, you didn't wreck it last night, did you? Blow your new engine?

Dave, spill the beans if he won't.

lol yeah i have absolutely no imagination at all when it comes to creating account names so i just use that one. Plus the name had an R and an X in it... get it?...RX-8?... i know its lame.

I am completely obsessed with that game series too. When i was in Osaka a couple years ago i bought probably $500 in toys and other KH related junk. Too bad i didnt have my eight at the time. i could have bought some sick aftermarket stuff there for nothing.

Yeah it was nice to finally meet people. Thanks everyone, especially 04, for cluing me in to how shitty of a job Legacy did with my engine replacement and helping me fix that tubing issue. Guess I got a bit of work to do..

I know what you mean, I've posted about it before. Some 8 drivers are totally rude, and I can't figure it out.

I used to have a nice Toyota FJ40 Landcruiser, 34" tires, 10" lift kit, clean. Every Landcruiser I ever passed, I got a wave from the other driver. Never met a stuck-up one, like I do with some 8 owners.

That said, fortunately they are in the minority. Most 8 drivers are terrific people.

haha, it was nice to meet you guys too. I honestly didnt even expect to see you guys, we went to dinner with our girlfriends/wife (his gf is my sister in law) and they bailed on the movie so we went alone. saw the 8's still there and figured I would say hi.
