If you want to have a meet, I'll do it to your car. Basically I tapped the fogs into the ACC, so theyre only on when I have them on the on position on the light stalk, and the keys are in the car. Remove the keys and they turn off, turn the fog switch into off position, they turn off. Basically they work independently from your headlights and park lights. Ima do it to itsdidihi's car when her and I hang out next. I got no problem doing it to your car too.

I saw you already by us1 and 184th. You were traveling east and I think you turned right to head on that homestead drive or whatever it's called. (back road to Mazda through the ghetto) lol
You need to get that thing painted already.

I'm at dade Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 7:30am- usually 10:20am. You'll see me by building M in lot 3 in the first parallel parking spot in the back of the lot. That is MY spot, take it when I'm there and I'll end you! Lmao

thanks for the help but it cost over a grand to do suspension and it costs under a grand to buy a 240

The modification I was talking about could cost you next to nothing. I heard somewhere someone removing the rear sway bar to make the back end a bit more loose. Actually I think it was some road course racers that did it but perhaps it would help with drifting too. Anyhow wish you luck either way. The 240's are very popular in the drifting world and are proven to be a cheap solution...At least cheaper then an Rx8.
