Well good news everyone I finally gots me another 8 after a month later pics soon.

 

Not on my car on my buddies SS turbo...fitment was kinda crappy but gains were sweet as can be

 

nice sparks welcome back.

 

Its good to be back. Now to rebuild.... ^.^

 

sparks what your plans??

strut bar should be here tomm, so hope to get that on this weekend and tear up some back roads.

 

Well I just put my GReddy exhaust back on today deffinately sounds better instead of that stock whine. Ummm next up is to get some Enkei AKP black 18s:



Then I am gonna sell the Rims (Boss Motorsports Chrome 328 18s) that were on it look like this:



and then a mint blue style body kit followed by another SEIBON TS1 carbon hood probally a wet one asppose to the matte one I had. Another AEM CAI. An APR drag style carbon wing and get my clear corners back on there. Probably some other stuff too.

I will post pics of the car soon.

 

ha ha the 8 came with boss wheels on it?!?!? did you make fun of the person? sounds like a nice little list there.

strut bar came in yesterday, hopefully will get it painted and put on this weekend, but bad weather+ no garage does not look good for these plans

 

Currently I am being plagued by transmission and clutch issues buttt I'm so close to my coilovers and rims I can taste it!

 

So lucky Charlie! I'll be insanely jealous when you come back...actually I will be jealous one bajillion miles away

 

lol how are the summer mods going for you!?

 

he already wants a new car, i swear that man messages me everyday with a new car.

how do those rims taste though? i never actually tried to eat mine, i just like to look at them! ha ha yea i know im a smart ***

 

I'll sell him my car for $9,000.
Not!

 

I know I dont care for them but I am sure some one might for the right price. I want to get rid of them so bad. they are almost 300 a piece brand new and put on the car less than 5000 miles ago. so pretty much brand new.

 

Just blacked out all my emblems today i think it fits the car a lot more since its not so flashy. I think im going to cancel my extended warranty after i go get a few things fixed on the car next week. Do you guys think i should get a compression text done on the car before i do this though just to see how strong the engine still is?

And other than all that stuff anyone want to try and get a meet going in late june early july maybe?

 

pics are up









I got my GReddy Exhaust back on Yay ^.^

Enjoy (again rims are up for sale once I buy my Enkeis)

 

looks good man nice choice... except the rims lol

 

rx8instl nice i love the blacked out emblems on ti grey
how did you black them out?

 

Sparks your parked on the wrong side of the street, ILLEGAL!!! lol jk looks good

 

Congrats on getting the best colored RX-8. After getting new wheels, show it off in the WWP thread! I strongly recommend clear corners, front mud guards, and removing the rear spoiler; that's just me.

 

nicely done sparks. and im down for a meet, need my car fix.

Just post some dates that work for everyone i know off the top of my head some dates i CANT do are:

the weekend of the 19th and 20th
the weekend of July 4th
the weekend of July 17

any other times would work for me
paintin the strut bar today, hopefully will have time to install later

 

end of july beginning of august works for me. in early spetember we will be hitting the city museum with the family as well

 

I'll be back around August 19 twenty and you better believe were doing a meet then

 

I Just heated them with a hairdryer and used a plastic card to get them off. As far as the actual paint i just sanded them down to mostly plastic used a couple of coats of primer 3 coats of black paint and 2 coats of clear coat. I probably could have wet sanded with like 1200 grit sandpaper to make them smoother. But they turned out really well in my opinion. Plus they look so much better.

 

Are
there any car events coming to MO this summer

 

i did mine matte black
didn't like the gloss look as much.
