they meet around 11 on fridays n saturday nights and usually goto *** park by the ohio river on the louisville side around noon on sundays. but they dont goto *** every weekend. just goto 502streetscene.net and join then goto meets thread.

 

I work saturday/sunday/monday/tuesday primarily the reason why I don't go to the 502 meets. during the week you'll find me occasionally showing my face

 

dammmm dude that sux. jus do bodywork out of your garage and you can make your own hours like me haha but im gonna get a meet togethor in a couple weeks, call all my honda fanboys n some 8 peeps. Get everyone to meet up at iriqouis and go for a cruise or somthin some were. lmk if youd be interested.

 

Yeah man I'd be down. Just as long as everyone is cool company. I have my own business btw, Computer Repair if anyone needs it. We'll beat any price in town. :P

 

Sooooo who has the black 8 with autobahn front bumper and kenstyle rear? had some rims and 4 tip exhaust? saw him on new cut by outerloop on my way too ruff river. anyone else ever seen him before?

 

Not I... I just see stockies, usually being driven by hot women... Poor 8s, they probably don't know how often they need to check their oil and are gonna wonder why the the car "broke" after 10k miles...

 

Any Rx8 owners near London...

 

I just got a used 04 rx8. I was wondering if anyone had any tips for me so i can keep this thing running at peak performance. And is there anyplace in louisville to get aftermarket parts or just order them all offline
ty

 

No place in town to really order them from. Get most of what you can get from Assaultech. He's great at giving the lowest prices in the business. He also has overnight shipping on most stuff for just 10 bucks more which is amazing... Just mention you're from the forums. Get a drop in K&N, no reason to get anything more than that unless you're boosted. Exhaust & midpipe if you're looking for more power. Kind of straying now from your question so back to your question about keeping it in peak performance, check oil every 2 to 3 fill ups depending on how fast you go through oil, my advice is to stick to regular mineral oil and no synthetics. You can pre-mix if you want (multiple threads on the board about this) make sure you keep at least 92 octane in the car at all times. If you can afford it, 93. Get the ECU checked/updated at neil huffman to the most current version for the car. Any recall work if any, have them do as well. Don't run the car until its warm, the rest is pretty much common sense. Check fluids periodically and don't run the car off the road. :P

 

okokokok first off anything kainis tells you is BS.

hah jk he pretty much sumd it up besides if you need ignition kits, CAI, fiberglass sub boxes, bodywork/paintwork you can jus hit me up. ill save you sum $$$.. Plus i still got alot of stock parts off my parts car so let me know bro.

 

TY for the info

 

We need to do something next week... I'm off wed-friday

 

So, anyone who's down for a meet this Saturday, we'll probably be meeting up at Iroquois Park down in the amphitheater parking lot near where they play disc golf. I figured we could grab lunch or something then go around and take some pictures. Meeting up there between 11-12:30. Should give everyone plenty of time to show up. If you're gonna be late you can call/text me at 502-938-0521. Not just a regular 8 meet so we'll have other people from the local car scene showing up but anyone is welcome.

 

Yo me and a buddy are wanting to meet up so if anyone in the area is down we are thinking maybe going to walmart on outerloop somtime either next summer or the one after.

Just hit me up if you wanna go.

 

I know this is an old thread, but the wife and I just pucked up a nice '05 RX8 on New Years day. Thought I would say HI. Car is all stock now with 58k miles. Titanium Grey, 6spd, heated leather seats, and sunroof. Will primarily be the wifes daily driver, and my weekend toy.

 

Nice. auto or mt?

 

Manual.......No way would I have a motor like this, in a chassis like this, with an automatic transmission. Nor would I have married a woman that couldn't drive a 5spd!! :D :D

Belive it or not, it was actually her idea to get the RX8 instead of the Ford Edge she had been looking at!

 

Very nice! Just make sure she keeps up on the maintenance with checking the oil at least once every 2-4 fill ups at the gas station, otherwise you'll be having a short lived Rotary and it'll make me

Welcome to the club and maybe we can get a meet going this spring! I look forward to seeing you guys again. We definitely need to do something before the end of Summer cause I ship out to boot camp in September!

 

I've been checking the oil for her on the weekends/nights. She doesn't drive it nearly as aggressively as I do. I'm trying to get in the habit of bringing it home with a full tank of gas, and a full crankcase of oil :D I think I'm going to go ahead and put new plugs and wires on it here soon as well, just to make sure those are in good shape for her. The car came with all of the service records since new, looks like it's been serviced at Oxmoor Mazda it's whole life, with everything from oil changes, to coolant flushes done there. Not sure I'm going to pay for the coolant flushes when I can do them myself, but the oil changes are reasonable so they'll still get that business for certain.

Is there a particular brand of oil I should be using when it does get low? So far it's been staying right between the "bumps" on the dipstick, but we've only run about 2 tanks of fuel through it. I think the manual said 5w30 as well, isn't that a little light? I seem to remember running 20w50 in my RX7, but that was 10 years ago so I might be foggy on that one.

 

Anyone else fight the traffic and ice this morning in a Mazda?

Took me 1-1/2hrs to get from J-Town to Middletown! Left home in the Yukon, and turned around and took it back to the wife, and fought the weather in the Mazda. The DSC was helpfull most of the time, allowing just enough wheelspin to get moving before sucking the power out of the motor and getting things under control and moving!

 

DSC sucks the fun out of driving in the snow. lol.

Plus if anyone local wants this BHR replica ignition kit ill take $350
And i still have a gazillion parts that i RLLY RLLY RLLY RLLY need to get rid of so PM me for anything

 

Anyone in here need to get their wife a friend an rx8? hit me up, im trying to sell mine in louisville. You can see it in the highlands and on hurstbourne prkwy. only asking 10500 for it. I have it in the classifieds as well. Just thought i'd let you all know. Im desperate to get rid of it after my nasty divorce. Cant afford it. 10.5k is the payoff so someone help me out please! pass the word around!

 

hey i'm a new 8 owner i live in the southern part of louisville right off crittenden drive. over on ottawa if i'm not on the road PM me maybe we can have a quick get together.

 

I was looking to install something to make my iphone play music over my radio. Just from reading the forums ive seen the, $4 sodder something onto my indash and play a blank cd, the$180 P.I.E. thing (im sure the old owner on my 04 didnt update the firmware so i would have to), or take it to like roberts audio and pay $200 for them to do it. IMO if i have to spend $180 i might as well get a whole new indash and install on that has a aux port built it. I like the looks of the original one which is why i havent already replaced it. Has anyone else installed something to give it an aux port or know of a different way that i dont know?

 

Hey, you guys still running around Louisville??? Just got my 8 and looking for some people to roll with.
