yea moon, heard great things about ya. i wanna meet the man, the myth, the moon.

 

^ hahahh

 

all the 8s that are on here... i hardly see any.. i think i might have seen you leshil... im in catonsville, right off 40 and ingleside..

 

hey... i saw an 8 sunday parked at white marsh mall and again on tues i think driving down joppa road and turned into seven courts.... it was a BB with a veilside kit and big cf spoiler. it looked nice. anyone know of him??

 

Sure it isnt Blackout??? https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8s-sale-wanted-43/fs-2004-abflug-mazda-rx8-169592/

 

dunno... not the same spoiler.

 

I'm going to totally try and hijack this for a bit...

Where would you recommend I take my precious 8 to get her washed properly?

I have a car wash stall in my apt complex but the water is leaving this gross dirty blackness to it. Really don't appreciate it. Basically just looking for some detailing shops I guess.

I live in the Landover/Hyattsville area (Right outside Fedex Field) though I wouldn't be opposed to traveling a bit for quality.

Thanks!

 

Honestly I would get the MR.Clean car wash kit,,,
It works great, and filters the water thats pumped through it...
Other than that I dont know know I dont trust anyone else to wash my cars...

 

I have the Mr Clean kit and can vouch for it also. Haven't used it in a while since I don't have the setup, but when I was using it it was working well.

 

Yeah, powdercoat would not work. I got JetHot e-series ceramic on my manifold and downpipe and when (or if) I ever get my 3071r, I will get the same to the hotside.

Swaincoat is another option.

While I cant quantify the benefits, the heat on my pass. side footwell has definitely decreased and I even removed all the asbestos tape. The other unquantifiable and potential benefit is better energy transfer to the turbo by keeping the heat in the manifold.

Overall, should be around $200.

 

I'll have to check out my apt's wash station and see if I could pull off the big gun attachment thingy they have.

If I can I'll pick up one of those Mr Clean kits tomorrow and let you know how it goes.

 

It was probably blackenedwings.

 

blackenedwings does not have the veilside kit.

i think he'd die a little inside if you said that to him.

also. his car is not bb.

 

Yeah, I'm aware of all that. He has the tsunami bumper and it's a shinka. But, it sounded like Roxie saw it from a quick glance.

 

she knew enough to distingiush it from a BB that has the ABflug kit...

 

Lol... well, it wasn't me because I am rarely if ever out by Whitemarsh. I can understand why somebody thought it might be me though, not that many 8s in the area with big CF wings.

 

aww thank you. lol. well i met the guy actually. its even weirder that i graduated with him and didnt even know it. lol. he might be coming to the sushi meet. pretty nice guy.

 

Ok, im in town and ive scored a workshop to get what needs doing done. My phone number is 561-596-5410. I have full backing of Cam and the other guys at Pettit. Till I can get an engine room settup ill be having my rebuilds done there and I have a tranny guy if yours needs fixing. Everything else can be taken care of inhouse.

 

Welcome to Maryland.

Must be an RX-8 day; on the way home I past a Shinka coming out of the Lowe's/Sam's parking lot onto Beaver Dam road, and a BB sitting on Pleasantville waiting to turn left onto 152. Both drivers were completely oblivious despite having a bright red and loud 8 charging at them...

 

haha, i saw a VR on 95 the other day.

when are we doing the moving in of moon's stuff? i could use a good workout. haha.

 

AWESOME.







Don't sweat me, you know you love it.

I pretty much can't stand my car anymore and I hope the bastard that fucked it up gets run over.

And I hope I'm the driver.

 

Boo whoooo , I have condensation everyother day...

 

Yeah but I have 800 other things in addition that are wrong

 

And for my third spot in less than two hours, I saw a Winning Blue at Tollgate and Bel Air road as I was heading up to Salvo.


BTW the engineer who decided where to put the oil filter and dipstick needs a swift kick in the crotch. >-( I just put in the Lebren dipstick light and it's a winner.

Lpr, that does suck, but it happens a lot. Not to much hassle to fix (though true better if it didn't happen at all). Get the revised gasket from Mazda for a few bucks and spend an hour with a wrench and a hair dryer and all is well.

 

Couldnt aggree more,,, Just try it when you have a blower in the way, I dont even bother checking the dipstick, I just add alil oil everytime I fill up..
