Hey guys,

I signed up for a track day on the 19th and am currently in the process of prepping the car. I'm looking for a shop that can fill out my safety inspection form and do a brake fluid job.

I've done all the maintenance myself so far and I have no experience with any mechanics around the metro Detroit area. Hoping to find someone who specializes in racing work so that I can go there later on for other track-related things like alignments and such.

ArborMotion and Rennstat Racing. Just south of I-94 on State Street (exit 177). Rennstat is a Porsche specialist, but they work on all cars. I take my car there if it isn't warranty work or I can't do it myself. arborMotion | Auto Repair Ann Arbor | Detail Ann Arbor | Mechanic Ann Arbor

Who is the track day with?

Tell them Phil sent you!

I did talk to arbor motion and I'm taking it there tomorrow for the tech inspection and brake fluid change. I had a PM from you a while back where you recommended them.

Track day is with 3 ***** racing. Will do one with RSR also.

I born and raised in the Grand Rapids area. I drove to a meet in Ann Arbor about 5 yrs ago. It looks like most of the 8 owners here today are near Detroit. I get together with the Michigan Jeepers intermittently.

Man I wish I would have seen this. I live in Sterling Heights, work in Troy. Would have loved to come out, but was stuck at home due to no power and not knowing about this.

It's that time of the year again. The Michigan Rotary Club will be hosting its official Woodward Dream Cruise event in Pontiac right on the loop. We will have the Grill and Tents. A Porta John will be availible to those of the party. We have plenty of Room. Feel free to provide a small donation (But not required) to help us cover the cost of fencing, porta john, food, setup tear-down, etc. This event is always free!!!! Come on out and say Hi. We love meeting everyone.

The address to the parking lot is: 99 Murray St Pontiac, MI 48342

Tell us what your bringing so we know what to expect, RX cars and rotary powered cars will get the best parking spots, followed by other cruise cars.

You can personally contact me via text or phone:
Richard "Groll" @ 248-568-1745

More information is posted on our club website: http://www.michiganrotaryclub.com/in...pic,546.0.html

Please let us know on our club website (prefered) or on here if can make it.

Anyone have a cobb access port? I'm thinking about getting the agency power exhaust system and I'd like to turn off the check engine if I do the cat delete.

TIA!

MI Anyone interest in buying my set of 4-18" stock RX8 wheels w Dunlop WINTERSPORT M3

Is anyone interested in buying a set of 4/ 18" stock Mazda wheels with Dunlop WINTERSPORT M3 snow tires? I moved to Texas, but my tires are up in MI still with my Nephew trying to sell them so I am offering to all MI forum first? Trust me it's nice to have set of winters and summers than you can switch them over yourself if you have the space I always kept mine in the basement they are in really good shape and are balanced. The rears have one more season in them the front are great. One has scratch in it, I have photos. Message me and I'll send photos if your interested, they have the TPMS as well!! Otherwise I am putting them up on the classified site and Craig's List for this coming weekend

Hey guys. Fellow RX-8 member looking for some help. I'm from Toronto in Canada and will be travelling down to Michigan Thursday through Sunday. Is there anywhere local I can pick up some HP+ pads from? If so, is anyone down to help me with the install (mainly the brake bleeding)? I will compensate in beer or cash or whatever you want. Thanks!

I was skimming over this thread and it looks like there isn't a lot of people in the Grand rapids area? More over on the east side of the state. True / false?

it was a Nordic green...have a 6yr old and wasn't the most practical car anymore since I didn't have a beater. I also needed a truck...still regret getting rid of it.
