Just went to go pick the 8 up. Everything seems to be running well. There's a noticeable improvement in shifting now with the Royal Purple fluid. The biggest improvement is the 1-2 shift (which has always been somewhat notchy), but everything is just silkier now.

LOL, I know what you meant. It gets even better in the summer.

I may try that one sometime. I've tried W. Broad, and Morse location, and they don't seem to carry 5W20. I always end up at the JEGs by campus. I should just get a barrel.

B-,
New body kit my friend.
Ra,
Anytime you are available is good for me.
I found out that I didn't need to take the front bumper off to fit the front lip. I'm very frustrated about that. Now I need to put everything back on and somehow get the front air dam re-attached.
My only question is, What would you attach the new front lip to if you didn't have the app. pack.?

Anthony, I just wanted to thank you for recommending TruePerformance. So far they've done a flawless job on the major hail damage from October and then a bullet hole in the roof from New Years! No one would ever be able to tell that any damage ever happened. Just wanted to let you know.

hey, whats up everybody. I got my RX-8 last November from Byers. It was used and didn't come with a keyless entry remote. I was wondering if anybody knew the best place around Columbus to get one, and how much it would be. Thanks!

Thanks. I just checked with the dealer, and they said it would be around $120 total. I think I'll just unlock the car manually instead. I can think of a lot more to do with $120 than buy a keyless entry.
