sure do. Im looking at getting another set of rims but not sure what. probably some volks

 

 

Looks good!!

 

Sweet! Nice lugs too, I definitely need some better lug nuts someday.

So, who's going to make the trek down to DGRR? Come on now.... WHO'S WITH ME!?!

 

thanks

i wanted to go but the dates won't work with my schedule

 

The dates are cutting it close for me... right before I go on vacation to Dominican Republic... gonna need the R&R after that drive back

 

Im down dude! lol i need to book my room here soon. Also send my rx3 to get done. or take the lame ole rx8

 

anyone want a sub box with some subs/amp??? Its a zen enclosure(?) was zee's but i got it. sell for 150.

 

I need to check these threads more often, lol... What days are you planning? Over on RCC they say there's a midwest caravan coming from Illinois area early Thursday morning, we could try to catch up with them or meet up or something. I didn't book a room yet or anything either, wasn't sure if I was going to go if there wasn't anyone else making the drive to keep me alert... ZZzzzz...

 

well im down in riding with you again if i dont have any car ready (vise versa).. Im sure i can take off from thursday and we could leave late wed or w.e. lmk what you have plan and ill get something going.

 

You should bring your 8, unless you can get the 3 ready in time... better not to rush it though. I'll try to figure out on RCC when/where to meet up with that caravan and how many people are in it. There's going to be 4 20b's this year... possibly that 26b RX8 and I think Modified Magazine will be there too. Phil's working on another FD project too. We need to talk Carlos into going down with us, bring his FD.

 

If I stil have 8 I'll take that. Otherwise I'll take Carlos fd if he can't make it.

 

When is this? I still have a long long way to go with my 8.. Have not even tore into it yet. However there are a couple guys around here with Fds that i hang wiht and have been talking about going. I may have to have a talk with them and make them commit to going this year

 

There are FD's in Des Moines?! I have never seen one here lol.

April 16-18... but some people come early or stay later depending on their schedule. I guess there's a caravan heading down from the midwest, I need to go digging and find out if they've set any real plans on when they're leaving, where they're planning on stopping etc...

BTW, does Carlos or Harold still have that FC?

 

no harold sold fc. i was gonna ****** it but it was too late :/
want a project buy my rx3!! lol

 

Here is a quick photo of thier cars. The red one is a moajor work in progress thats coming to completion. Its been being built over the last 4 years or so.

The black one is alway out and about. Goes to MAM alot with it also.

 

I'm going to be returning my car back to stock guys. So be on the lookout for a fs thread. Iowans get priority on parts if you guys want anything.

 

any special reason for going back to stock??

 

To sell the car.

 

lol id try to sell as it is dude. you may make more money that way. Right now its a bad market to sell an rx8.

 

Oh btw guys im working at a Used Car dealership and have GM/Chrysler/Dodge franchise. so if you guys looking for a car LMK.

nobody is going to want to buy a turbo rx8
there is no market for it here; stock 8's open up a wider range of people

i will do better selling all my parts and trading it in to my dealer account thru work

 

Sorry to hear it... one of the nicest 8's around and you just got those wheels!! Why the sudden change of heart? Do I smell a new toy coming.... or a minivan?

 

LOL no way on the minivan. My wife refuses, hahahah.

No it's just not practical for me with winter and all. I never drive it. I want a car I can drive all year with out having to have a winter beater. Most likely will buy an STI. Just gotta find the right one. They are hard to find with low miles and stock.

As for the wheels, they will fit 05+ STI's however they will require a lot more work to fit unlike the 8. I will need to roll the front fenders, roll AND pull the rears. The pull part is a turn off. Never really liked that look....we will see how it goes.
