good looks bro, i'll be coming this week hopefully

 

I think I have seen you once or twice on 347.. but I'm not too sure.
Anyway, I now see a black one always parked on campus, so including yours and the nordic green that you have seen and the three that I have spotted plus mine makes that more than five rx-8s on campus. Not bad haha..

 

yeah...plus there's a red one i see in the parking lot near the train station repeadedly, i guess a commuter. It's sadly really beat up...

Ive had my car for over 5 years now, and ive worked on, broken, fixed, upgraded, downgraded, tinkered with, etc most of the parts on it. If you have any questions, or could use a hand with anything from a local, you let me know...

 

spotted a ti gray with "rx8 nfs" license plate.. i got your attention, but i was in my subie, so you probably thought i was some ******* in an sti.. haha

 

Thanks for the kind offer.
I'm far from being a DIY expert, but I could also lend a hand if you ever need a noobie around for some basic help.

 

Haha ok, thanks, I'll keep that in mind...

I was also offering cause we're gentlemen around here and (I gather) you're a girl, so there. And cause I have lots and lots of free time.......ok that's a lie lol.

Have fun out there

 

hyoseok is a guy name..

 

ahaha whoa.. I'm sorry about the picture if that made you think I was a girl.. that's a pic of my girlfriend and I am guy. Thanks for clearing that up ghost lol.

Anyway, I hope your offer still holds lol.

 

 

LOL yeah I saw the photo. Yeah offer still stands....i gueeeessssss... :-)

 

Hey Guys I have a big favor to ask. I have the BHR coils and never have had a problem with them but just recently my car has been having problems under heavy load. It starts breaking up? It drives fine normal around town and highway but any lets get the parted started type of driving will result in the engine breaking up. I've PM'd a couple of guys about this and they all seem to think its ignition. I just bought new wires and plugs from Charles to see if it was that but nothing. Is there anyone who might have a set of OEM coils laying around so that I can test the car with them to rule out the BHR coils? I can't seem to find mine. Thanks

 

hrmmm I can check when I get home. Last time I changed my coils there was nothin wrong with them, they had just been on the car for a lot of miles. I'll check if I still have them, but it's kinda unlikely.

High RPM issues....think ignition (good job) or possibly cat (is yours stock? mileage?) and also maybe spark plugs if they are quite old.

 

Yea I'm almost positive at this point its ignition. I'm good up to about 2.5psi before it breaks up if i'm less than 50% throttle but any more throttle position or more boost and it breaks up. I'm sending them back to Charles to get the coils replaced but I won't have a car and If someone does have it, it will save me and verify my thoughts.

 

If any of you local guys have (small) car projects to do, I'm working on a few things at my buddy's place in Selden around noon. We'll be working on a few cars and bikes. We'll have our tools/jacks/etc out. Feel free to PM me and swing by.

And sorry, but no coils here.

 

Does anybody have the new navteq navigation?
I just bought my friends 2004 rx8 gt...its amazing! best car ever!
but the navigation sucks...it looks terrible
i was wondering if anybody has the new one that I can copy please!
I go to Queens College and I'm a student! I'll buy you tacobell or something!

Hey guys if anyone is interested or knows anyone interested in the car i won please let me know. I have come down in price, car has 1100 miles on it 2009 RX8 R3 Foose Custom Rims, Foose Custom Paint. Located on long island. email acarbonejr@yahoo.com for more info.

Thanks

 

It's so awesome that you won it....still looking to buy that porsche?

 

Anyone know a good place around the island for fixing rims up? 7+ years of scuffs, dings, chips I feel like touching up. Not just for my 8, but could be useful for other cars as well.

 

rx8 meet, LI- every week wenesdays in wantaugh. wantaugh avenue just south of southern state in the kfc parking lot. be there.

 

VIK - where the F have you been? lol...

Place for rims - YES. Go to Al's Hubcaps in Mineola on Jerico tpke. It sounds lame, and the place is a shithole, but Al is ridiculous nice, very honest, and does great work. For expensive rims, he's the place to go to. Keep in mind that for most shitty/cheap rims, doing a repair often isn't cost effective. But for expensive rims, he's the man.

I've never had a bent rim, but he's done a bunch of other small jobs for me, always great.

Plus I have a bummper sticker from there that says "I got my rim job from Al's Hubcaps!" hahahahaha

 

Haha, good to hear from you Andrew. Sorry, I've been caught up with school and junk. I'll try to meet up again sometime soon.

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll definitely check him out.

And as for the price of the rims, I am more asking for the Carrera than I am for my 8. I grazed a rim the other day by some act of black magic, and I'd like to fix it up before my older brother murders me.

What do a set of stock rx-8 rims go for these days anyway? I've really beat mine to hell.
