Long Island, NY RX8 Owners
I've been so cought up with my turbo build I didn't even look here to see what you guys are doing..... My car still need another 2 weeks to be ready so maybe if there is a meet after that I can make it.
Hey! No ranking on my 3! I <3 her, lol.
Sorry I wasn't much help at the meet Andrew, I wasn't feeling too well and I was leaving for vacation early the next day. Have you looked into all the grounds on the harness? Pull on every wire/pin/plug junction and make sure you have good connections. I had an annoying as hell mystery problem with my MAF 2 years ago and I wound up going to a junk yard and cutting out the leg of the engine harness that I needed instead of buying the whole new one from Mazda ($500+). I had originally just replaced the connector with one new one from the P Vibe (same MAF as mine) cuz Mazda wouldn't just sell me the connector :-/ But yeah, it was a "service bulletin" for techs to check the potting and the pin connections for corrosion or being loose on the connectors of the engine harness on the earlier 3's... so I wouldn't be surprised if that problem carried over to the 8's too.
And nice new whip ghost, gunna start rallying now? Jim, we'll have to AX soon, I'm totally getting the itch, lol.

btw- ghost I love the new avatar (I want it! Lol) and since I'm in the market for a new 8 cuz my dad ever paying me in either car or $ is not going to happen
everywhere I go I see your 8 damn it! It's like toying with me... I want it! But I cant afford 12k 
So... I'm officially in the market for another car... I would prefer a black 8, '05 or newer, stock or at least not driven too hard, under 50k miles... so if anyone sees one... let me know
And is anyone going to NY Auto show? (I know theres a post about it but I was just wondering if anyone I actually kind of know is going, lol)
