LOL

Drove the RX8 today in the snow! Awesome tires these are

 

Thought it didn't snow down there

 

Been driving mine in a little snow too! My tires suck in this weather so its been interesting

 

Had 3 inches on top of ice this morning out here. These Michelin Pilot Sport AS Plus tires are sticky as all get out. Whatever that means... lolz

 

Summer tires + snow = fun

 

Well Boeing got the military tanker contract. Looks like I'm safe for a little while...phew.

 

Really good news!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey I was looking at some pictures of what I thought to be your car, where or how did you make the front lip, stock side skirts and other pieces look like carbon fiber?

 

Job FTW!

 

Me? My car is stock

 

I got your car confused with another, you and him are the only one with cages that I know of

 

I heard a guy say he didn't like prosport gauges

do you guys know of any good brand of gauges??????

 

That's T-Rex-8; and I have a Prosport Gauge and it seems fine to me?

 

CAnt remeber his issues, I was thinking of getting them I need oil pressure and a boost gauge

 

Oh, I remember issues with the base guages, but the Prosport Premium seem to work fine, except for the boost guage.

 

WHat wrong with the boost one?

 

Ive just heard of them not being accurate, which is not a good thing. Same with AFR...

For basic readings they seem to work fine, but you might want to invest in better guages for the important readings.

 

I have the Halo series ProSport gauges which are a step up from the premiums and I really like them. Pdxhak has the premiums and has had some issues with them. Click the ProSport link in my sig for more info.

 

DId you get the gauges directly from prosport apexi?

 

Yep, seems to be the best option.

 

Go back 1 page in this thread and you will see my issue with the gauge. Also if you over tighten the nuts in the back the buttons will not work. The housing gets pulled too far back and the buttons basically are flat against the face. If that happens then you will need to uninstall the gauges and push the metal screws flat.

 

Correct. Unlike him, I dont call my car a 'time attack car'...thats never seen a racing event. Parkin' lot pimp and poppin da hood playa!

Few other guys with rollbars installed. Dannobre has/had one. Far as Seattle area goes, im pretty much the only one running around with one.

 

PDXHAK, was your boost gauges a digital one?

The propsport amber/white seem to look the best inside the rx-8, and I noticed that they offer a mechanical boost gauge, was thinking that and there oil pressure gauge

what do you guys think?

I got the ashtray pod, gonna put in those two gauges and an lc-1 wideband I have laying around

 

AutoMeter is an AWESOME brand. Best prices are on Summit

Less than a 100 miles to go. Getting solid MPG. A touch over 300 between fill ups
