New to the Rx8club, Just bought 05 rx8

I just recently bought a black 05 rx8. it will be a little weird going from a 400whp eclipse gsx but ill deal. Ive been lurking around here for a while. I really like the forum best one ive been on so far. Just saying hello and whats up. I am located in the south jersey area if anyone else lives around there.

Will

hey Rollin', WELCOME to our little part of the internet. Congrats on the black 05.
Got any pix?
How long did you have the Mitsu? What made you part with it?


Check out the regional forums, I'm pretty sure there's quite a few meets near Jesey

ill have pics up tonight hopefully if my camera decides to work. I had the mitsu for about 2 years and did a 1g swap for the crankwalk problem. I needed a daily driver to go back and forth to college. I have a 71 charger with enough power to race i jsut wanted a nice looking car with decent power.. this car ill probably end up doing all exterior work liek body kit rims then exhaust intake basic things..
thanks for the help

If it's a manual, you now have the best breed of the 8 ever made. Bullet-proof, 13% faster than other 8's, and 22% more fuel efficient, too.

Congrats.
