I tuned all my new stance coilover suspension it has been on a week so it has settled a bit. I tweaked it and dial out a bit of the oversteer I had at the last autocross event. Hopefully I will be a little quicker next time. I was the 3rd fastest car on street tires and want to be the fastest.

 

And a puddle light install.

 

Well after 4 months of cold storage I pulled the car out and went for a nice long ride.
Only fix was 4 pounds of air in all 4 tires(that was easy)

 

Wash and drove it and did not have to put gas in. But all bets are off on that tomorrow. Also got my ipad RAM stand in. Will add to the car tomorrow.

 

I'm sure I'll get bashed on this, installed YAKIMA roof rack and added a basket. The RX-8 is now officially a grocery car!

 

That's not so bad... That's how mine looked after the first time deflooding my car for two hours.

 

Installed a set of Racing Beat sway bars.
Nice improvement.

 

Drove with top open all windows down in 75 degree air in the middle of March in upstate NY... who could ask for more - love it! should be almost 80 today....

 

Went to school, drove around a college campus and you would have thought i was in a lambo with all the looks i get, man i love my 8!

 

I drove my 8 to Boston seen a couple Ferrari's but not 1 Rx8 Just me and my Rotary!!! OOOOHHH Buddy the looks she gets!!!

 

Ya it wasn't too bad sitting there idling.

Took almost 2 hours of driving to burn off all the ATF.

The first 10 minutes driving down the road people were trying to get out my way, flag me down, small animals and children ran for their lives.

Honestly like a Batman smoke screen ... maybe not quite as bad a seafoam but close.

 

How much did you put in there?

 

Just over 500 ml

 

MAN SO EXCITED GOT TO DRIVE MY 8 FOR THE 1ST TIME., after owning it for over a month or so, I took it to dealer and they found a main fuse not pushed in all the way, wowwhat a looser i am, but is ok I went over the fuses 7 times I guess i didnt pushed it down ,, dumb dumb, so Now i have my new BHR KIT in new plugs new red top and now I have service records from previous and i have a o2 sensor bad and a radiator sensor heat something I got excited and blocked everything they were saying, By my understanding they have 2 experts on rx8 in this mazda . my friend owns a drag car and he been living in this town for years,, im from the chicago area and he knows alot of people, anyways they said car started right up no problem so, im excited, here is my new toy ,,

Had some rain a few days back which left water spots and other undesirables all over the car. Yesterday, on my way to work, I stop at a touchless car wash to get rid of the nasty stuff. Looked good for the rest of the day. Today however, I find my BB is now pollen yellow. Arrrgh!

 

Found muddy cat footprints all up the hood in the morning. Later, a coworker commented on it. Took it to the car wash after work. Makes me want to camp out and watch for the little bastard.

 

New tail lights arrived three days ago and its pouring hard outside. I finally installed and replaced my fish bowl tank earlier, I'll have the new ones baptized in the rain later tonight, DSC OFF

 

i made the mistake of cleaning my headlights with a headlight cleaning kit ><, they are worse then before. Damn rain x. It was not the drill spin kind.

 

I only used Turtle Wax with mine since it's mainly sun damaged. But it has to done regularly.

 

Drove home from Austin to DFW after a week long business trip, and got up to 101 mph just south of Hillsboro trying to get around a huge caravan of trucks. Trip down I got 25.3 mpg on the trip down averaging around 68 mph.

 

Just made my car payment. My wallet is black and blue now.

 

changed oil, removed spacers

 

Smoked the orange side markers on the Rx today

 

Added a quart of oil and filled in a windshield bulls eye with resin.
