Then make a facebook account and join. It's much more convenient, and it's easier to keep track of events. Checking facebook with your phone is easier than checking this also.

We will have a meet soon, we hibernate during the winter. Our rotards don't like snow. (I drive mine in the winter, but most others don't.)

Using this outdated forum makes me feel like I'm in highschool.

The Mazdaspeed or the AEM intake are good start points. They are the same thing..and any reputable brand exhaust is good on our cars. Just stay away from the eBay stuff. Its a waste of money for cheap parts when they don't last and you have to buy the nice stuff eventually.

Pay close attention to the parts for sale section on here. Most guys on the site take care of their stuff and those are things you could really save some money on buying used.

I feel the opposite. Facebook=High school. I will never make a Facebook. Why would you want to leave the site anyway? Any information regarding our cars is here..

I have to agree. I guess I don't have anything against the facebook group and it's great for scheduleing events but you're going to learn a lot more about your car and have more meaningful discussions in a forum. I guess there is a use for both.

Join us on FB.
tinyurl.com/mnrx8

And for the other guys, this forum was made for rx8 in the US in general; there is no separate section for us Minnesotans. So the FB group is our MNRX club, this is not.

It's up to you guys to join the club. But I am not posting events on here, because we already have 131 members on the FB group; and it's a hassle to keep up with both groups. Last 2 years, we only have 20-30 active members; and it's already a mess to set up events. So I'm not even sure how this year will be like.

If any other member of the club feels like posting about the events for you guys, they are more than welcomed of course.

My advice would be use this if you need infos about the car, but join the facebook group to keep up with events.

Some of us do not have a Facebook. How is it a hassle to post in the MN section here with all the other 8 drivers around the states? It just makes sense to have it all here, where all the information on my car is..

I saw a VR on my way home from work on 169. Just bought it I think. I believe it was the VR that was parked at Unique.

Question for you all. Can I get a suggestion for a rotary shop in MN/ND/SD? I live in Fargo right now and the only place i've been able to find that works on rotaries is TurboBlown just outside of Minneapolis. I would rather not have to take a 3 hour drive so the closer the better.

What do you have for suggestions?
