New Rx8 Owner (:
 
Hey everyone!

Just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. Just purchased a 2005 mazda rx8 (6 speed manual of course) with 36,000 miles on it. I have read all the the newbie guides and potential owner guides and am ready and excited to take on the challenge of the 8.
Tomorrow i will be changing the oil and filter, air filter, and ignition system along with a nice wash and wax.
Im sure you'll be hearing more from me too!

Congrats and you know already on what to do to take care of it. Good luck and enjoy the ride.

Welcome. Sounds like you know what you're doin. Throw up some pics after the wash.

Edit: Just noticed you're from Utah. Check out the local boards as well.

No.

Salt Lake county is about 51% Mormon. The state overall is about 68% Mormon. And the Mormon percentage is currently shrinking due to an influx of new residents from other states (and countries) in recent years.

Salt Lake City proper actually has a slight Mormon minority.

A new exhaust is an excellent mod. You won't see any power gain, but the sound is so sweet!

rgarcia9 07-19-2011 10:09 AM

Excellent, let me know once you have it on your 8, I wanna hear the TurboXS in person haha
