Okay guys and gals.....I just made a trip down to Modular Depot which is in Southgate KY otherwise known as Newport.

I spoke with the manager there and I asked about dyno runs....so here is where we stand:
-50 bucks for three runs and it includes the AFR reading (this is half the price)
-we need a minimum of 10 cars to do this
-I was thinking the weekend after the 29th

Let me know ASAP I will get it organized....this would be great for all of us to hang out and get some ideas on numbers.

start to fill up the spots or feel free to PM me

6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

The guys down at this place are real cool and friendly, we could all meet up before hand and roll down there together.

Hey guys...i need some help...tonight my car lost power and then died a couple times..each time I would start it back up and it would drive ok for a few...im located in hebron ky...i am pretty sure based on my researching this site that it is the coils.....i do not know what kind of maintnence was done to this car before I bought it so it could still be on original plugs and coils.....I am going to buy the coils from online mazda parts...any suggestion where to get plugs? Also could anyone help me install? I have a cozy garage and will supply beer/food..some cash..whatever...i know this is probobly a easy fix but I would feel more confident learning with somone who knows how. I dont mind doing the work..and just having somone guide me....please and thanks!

I live in Taylor Mill KY and Ihave done coils about 4 times now i can put those in for you and the plugs arent hard either just make sure you have a socket to remove them, a jack, jack stands and we will have to take the tire off on the drivers side.

Let me know the progress with your car and when you would want to do the install..??

and are you talking about spark plugs or spark plug wires??

I unfortunitly need to sell my RX8 and the aftermarket parts that go along with it.

I will use these funds to help pay for the engagement ring that I intend to buy my girlfriend.

Everything is pretty much brand new and in great working order. Every part has less than 1000 miles on it.

I would like to use Paypal and the buyer is responsible for shipping costs. I dont do dibs.

Items that are FOR SALE:
(Everything is o.b.o)


1. Agency Power Cat-back exhaust with Titanium tips: $500 SOLD
2. Authentic Black Mazdaspeed Front bumper with foglight bracket already installed: $1200 SOLD
3. Authentic Black Mazdaspeed Side-skirts: $650 SOLD
4. Racing Beat intake with Ram Air Duct (I bought this used a few weeks ago, and the guy said there was about 7000 miles on it..I have put about 500 since I installed in): $200 SOLD
5. Megan Racing Coilovers w/ dampers (soft to hard adjustment): $700 <-----Still for sale


I will post pictures later when I get back from dinner. Thanks for looking guys.
