Roger,
I'm also relatively new to the RX8 club only owning my Red "Stone Stock" 05 since August of 2012. I'm in Green Bay and just got wind of (2) vehicles, both 04's, in Bay Auto's walk thru. yard called "Grandpa John's Pick and pull". I haven't seen them yet although I will be stopping in there soon. I had similar mice damage on my 05 this winter.

May try cleusans over by Weston. I also may know of one in Marshfield that is being parted out. If the owner did not sell it off over the weekend. I will check this week and post if it is still o
Around.

Mice did a job on my side covering in the engine compartment a few years back.

Can anyone tell me where the best place to have a true rotary compression test done on my 8? I'm in Kenosha. Would like to stay in WI. I hate Chicago and all its shitty toll roads.

Hello!

Well I am proud to say that I am now another local RX8 owner. The name is Jake and I live in Racine.

I am a certified driving instructor as well as a competition license holder with NASA Midwest Region. Professional driving instructor with Xtreme Xperience to boot! Love cars, but I love driving them at their limits even more!

My fiance and I purchased a 2004 Velocity Red Mica Grand Touring edition from the local dealership. 60k miles on the clock and it's is absolutely clean! 3 days after purchase, her and I had it out at Gingerman Raceway in South Haven, MI for Honda Meet (I race a Honda) to see what it was capable of! Haven't regretted my decision yet.

Learning the ins and outs of the car, mostly the maintenence aspect of it. Small oil leak somewhere in the engine bay causing the smell of oil to blow through the vents. I'll be hunting down the source of the leak and hope to repair it soon.

Hit me up if you want to meet up!










The result of 3 days on track, these pads didn't stand a chance!

Milwaukee rx8 owner, you're a pathetic scum

As most you know, Milwaukee is already a pile of ****. Actually, thats almost offensive to **** itself.

Anyway, I created this account just to say I saw a blue with black center rx8. Race is not important, but to point this ****** out, he was a black guy with a white gf.

I deliberately saw him reach his hand out the window and throw a fast food bag and trash out the window while driving. You are real classy there you piece of ****.

It has a body kit, wing, exhaust, and a turd for a driver.
