Steve, what time are you thinking about installing it on sat? MAybe I could come and lend a hand and see if we could get mine in. I am going to order my NGK spark plugs today..I heard they make a HUGE difference from the OEM ones to the NGK when having the ignition solution installed.

Let me know..I will be more than happy to lend a hand and just hangout..do you have aintiseize for the bolts and nuts?

Thumbs up 5/10 great people & meet!

Everything contest!



Best stock (rx8, rx7, mazda3, mazda6, protégé, miata, etc, etc)
Best mod (rx8, rx7, mazda3, mazda6, protégé, miata, etc, etc)
Best look (rx8, rx7, mazda3, mazda6, protégé, miata, etc, etc)
Most unique (rx8, rx7, mazda3, mazda6, protégé, miata, etc, etc)
Etc
Etc…

2) Longer cruise > some people did point out that they wanted to drive more... so … we drive more next time

3) BBQ

4) Bikini car wash (I am just kidding lol)

Here are some possible dates:

Do people want to do it in a Saturday or Sunday?

Any day works for me.

That sounds like a good idea steve. Make it an all day event. Start early, have a BBQ, maybe some cornhole, take a cruise, then meet back and chill while throwing back some cervezas.

Hey Josh can you find out the name of the place that can redo our seats in leather? I have some neat ideas for my interior.

I''' talk to the guys at TD performance. I already spoke to them about a Dyno day. They told me a minimum of 10 cars are needed. The rate would be $65 for three pulls versus the standard $85.

Also to the Dark Green RX8 guy that was interested in my tires. I put some pictures and brief description in the parts for sale section.

I would be up for another meet in July or June. I had a lot of fun at the last one even though I didn't get to stick around after the cruise. Next time we need to take a longer drive. A Sunday would be better for me, I would have a better chance of getting off of work as opposed to a Saturday or Friday.

I cant decide what to do my 8. Either exhaust or coilovers and rims/tires or autobahn kit. I have a feeling Im going to regret doing something whatever I may do. Thats probably the biggest reason I havent done anything yet. Blah Blah Blah...enough of my yappin.

I was just in Chicago last month. The traffic is horrible. FYI theres some heavy construction where 65 meets 94. And the detour directions are confusing as hell, assuming you'll be taking 65 north.

Thanks for the info!

Exhaust to me is a waste of money.. It does not benefit performance at all ($600 + for nothing) well if you just want a loud RX-8
but then again, you could get a midpipe or a highflow cat which is cheaper and it actually gives you some gains in horse power!

coilovers and rims/tires might be a good upgrade and the autobahn kit is just pure sex!

If you do something, you should enjoy it!!
