trying to schdule an appointment to get my oil cooler install. its raining hard(I was drifting last night at my local mall parking ehhe) and work have really slow me down my process, because i dont get a lot time off.
Also i am doing some research about the PLX gauge(one gauge show all). because i want something more stealth. I am trying to think whether I should buy the vent meter from one of the member here, he only have 3 left, but i am not sure if i want to get them.
But 25% of complete, 75% to go hehe

I think he's talking about Chicken(kicker)wafer.
One time the car went over 125 and the last time coming back from SSXI I only hit 125 (with DSC on). I don't get many opertunities to drive it quickly.

I don't know...I just don't get how people back up car without looking and hit a none moving vehicle, especially a eye catching car-RX8!

Department of Motor Vehicle need to set up a higher standard for people to get their driver license, so there will be less dump *** and lower insurance rate.

Maybe I should start another thread about(The ugliest AT8) J/k I post up the pic later today.

Thats good the person had insurance. Yeah its gonna suck driving around in that rental. The only thing you may like about it is that you'll find yourself making less trips to the gas station.

man that sucks, was like some old guy? lol's. the thing is hate the most in the world is insurance companies, lol's. the rates I have to pay is ridiculous. B/c of insurance rates, I had to go AT in the first place, hahaha. Well, for the rental car, I hear you can rent the same car that was damaged, so try and rent another rx8, haha.

Yeah, my car is still at the shop now, currently i am driving a Chevy Cobalt, the car is so horrible that I starting to like it because its a basic model and when I pull the Ebrake it drfit and easy and since it have no traction control it does burn out with front wheel. You can never really pull the Ebrake and drift with RX8 unless you mod it.
Rental are meant to driving it hard!
