Hello everyone!

Hi, my name is Tom. I have a 05 rx8 GT. She's a 6spd, and I fell in love with her. I highly overpaid for her, and had wayyy to many miles 92k when I got it, 113k now. I wouldn't go back and change it though, I love every moment with my 8. It's an amazing car, even the problems it has are fun.
I'm in the middle of replacing the fuel pump because it shut off on me and won't turn over at all now. It's lowered on tein springs (I'll send pictures) and stock wheels. Just wanted to drop by and say hi to everyone.

It is unfortunately, the guy who owned it before me had almost everything holding on with zip ties and the broke off driving down the road. And the same wth the white, it was already done when I got the car. But thank you for not flaming

It feels like a paint, and it's sticky, so I assume he used a cheap clear? Beyond me, but who knows. 🙃

Welcome to the club man. I think the white wheels look sick. It's different. You know, the customizations on your car are what differentiates your car from the rest, and I think that's a good thing! You will need the undertray though, otherwise your car MIGHT overheat. I didn't say it WILL, I said it MIGHT :P

Anyways, have fun with your sweet ride and stick around the forums. Plenty of things to learn and hey, maybe you could teach some new members a thing or two!

Cheers buddy!

Welcome! Seems in good shape for the miles. Definitely get that undertray on there, you're risking overheat without it.

So, don't take this as flaming, but, you have a sticker of your car's Instagram account.. On your car.. So people know where to find pictures of your car.. When they're near your car?
