That video was well worth the time, thanks a lot Shnifty...

Hey guys could you do me a favor and login to www.mnrx8club.com

I just rebuilt the machine it is running on.

Get your avatars reinstalled that was the only thing that did not get ported when I upgraded the site.

I was wondering what happened to MN Club.

I just tried to get to it and no luck. I'm assuming it's turned off.

selling leftovers

Hey guys I just sold my 8. Going back to school and no beater so I got another to replace it. I will miss my 04 ss dearly. Figure I do local before posting to the far sale section.

For sale:

oem trunk cargo tray: 30$
oem amber corners: 20$
oem rotary rear accent: 40$

cooling fan relays 1 and 2 fuses
rear "mazda" and "M" emblems are free to whomever wants them.

Shoot me a PM.

p.s. not trying to brag but if your wondering what car I would prefer over an already awesome car as the 8; I got a Lexus IS 250 AWD.

Hope you guys wave back when a guy in a baby blue lexus waves at you while your in your 8!

YAY I've been seen

It's weird... I've seen 4 8's and 3 of them have been on Rice Street. I'm guessing it was the little strip mall with the subway and the Fu Xing Buffet.... too bad I missed ya.

Also, Hi Derek and welcome

As far as exhaust goes It was helpful for me to youtube them and listen to the differences. Are you planning on replacing the Cat too?

I've got a Greddy SP2 exhaust and it's a little on the loud side but I like it. It Makes people look :P

Instead of posting a new thread I will ask you guys first.

Installed my underdrive pulley on monday. Everything is going great with it.. until the CEL came on! Actually expected... but I have heard it does and does not come on read some threads here and there. but anywho... what would cause it? too tight? too loose? (i assure you not too loose) any way to get rid of it? CEL that is. and while installing the pulley i stepped in dog crap and it got all over my gas pedal... swear i scrubbed it over and over... but the smell lingers... any remedy for that

any input would be nice!

Greddy sp2! love the sound!
