My garage with my...RX-8, 2002 Ducati 998, 2004 Honda CBR1000RR, and my last professional race bike...used to be a racer (retired 2 years ago thanks to a wall impact at 90mph at Loudon)
|
SWEET set-up!
What's the damage to the bank account so far? |
For the 8 or all of the toys?
|
Damn! Must be hard to choose what to ride to work... "Hmmm. Shall I cruise in the 8 or ride the Ducati? Aw hell, it's raining, I'll ride the Honda!" :)
Really nice setup. I also like what you've done with the flooring. I plan to do something similar in the fall. |
Total upgrade costs to the 8....
LOVE the bikes.... Tough life, someone's gotta live it. :) |
Hey awesome stuff!
Question though, the starter button you have there, i saw it on the japanparts site or some site a while back and was intrigued about it, what exactly is it? Just press the button and car starts? no key? Please tell me!! |
dam your one lucky guy, nice looking 8!
|
very sweet!

Upgrade costs to the 8 are roughly $6,000. Forgot to add to my list that I have received my Canzoomer Stage 2 kit!
Thanks for the compliments, I LOVE my garage. I used to wrench my own race bike, which is why I have the lift and snap on toolbox. If you look close at the garage picture, there is a phot of me racing at Daytona. The picture to the left is Ruben Xaus from Ducati (Not me) |
Did you do the start button yourself? If so, please tell us all about the wiring details and complications (if any). As much info as you can relay. :)

how much did the ps2 cost to install? also what about the start button?
|
wow very impressive. good toys.
|
The PS2 costs include, $149 for the PS2, $615 for the avelectronics video tap (Yes, I paid more than most as I have an SVideo input instead of an RCA input) $80 Power Inverter to supply 120 volts to the PS2 and $40 for wireless controller) Labor is free as I do all of this stuff myself. So the total was about $900.
The starter button cost $200 again I did the install myself so labor was free. |
What with DVD-sound ????
When you use the electronic equipment to watch a DVD on the 8's screen, to wich speakers is the sound connected to ?
How is it connected ? How does it sounds like ? You control the DVD-player with a remote ? Thanks ! |
Whatever youdo dont crash
