I heard they fix rims pretty good worth at least getting info too...

Good luck

 

Thanks, I'll check them out on Monday for a Guesstimate. It's good to shot around.

I saw another 8 today off of Camel, he had the Euro LEDS, it looked pretty cool.

 

yeah I just saw an 8 tonight as well. unsure of color. Just pulled out of work after midnight, rolled to front of light for freeway entrance.. lane closest to on ramp.. he pulls up next to me.. seems like an younger 40s person, mid 30s.. I go.. I see what he was doing so I went all out and owned him

 

Friendly reminder if anyone is interested...

NOTE: from RX7club side of things :O

I had them repair a set of Enkei RPM2 wheels that were bent and had major curb rash. They made them look brand new, straight and I even got them powered coated. $800 for the set (I believe) and included mounting and balancing the tires.

 

Yeah I do have an appointment with them next week, they will do everything for $200.00, not too bad I guess, I might have them do my OEM wheels, thinking about Satin Black, but the Black Chrome looks cool too, ah decions.

 

So got a tint ticket from CHP in redwood city, says i have court in June at 8:30. Can i just remove the tints take it down to my local PD station , have then sign it and pay the bail at fremont court house?

Or do i have to go down to redwood city on my court date?

My last ticket was from fremont PD just went to milpitas PD had them sign the ticket and paid the bail at fremont court house.

All tint tickets are the same right? just a fix it? but on this one it looks like he marked Correctable violation with a big fat "NO"

Thanks for any help!


BTW planning to put my rims up for sale soon just wanna see if anyone here would be interested.

wtf you had a retarded cop. I can get tickets signed off if you need some help. If they give you trouble for it again, just tell them you went out of town, and the weather was getting scorching hot

 

Ok any of you have this problem...
Took radio out of dash reinstalled it and now the fan speed doesn't show on the orange digital display everything else displays fine... But not the ac/heater fan speed..???

 

checked all the connections?

 

my car doesnt seem to have this "orange digital display" lol

 

Yep checked them all again last night it shows ac on or off all buttons and ***** do there job so their plugged in it's just weird maybe pull them all off again and check all pins inside the connectors is all can think of

 

Try Checking all the PIN'S and make sure they don't have any build up, might have to clean them. Good luck.

 

my fan speed has been gone since i had my corksport dash kit installed years ago. I dunno, looking down and seeing it on 1 is just as easy to me as looking at the red display.. lol

 

True it's been like that for a while now getting used to it oh well...
Thanks for the info...

Side note had my Mazda 6 display replaced at dealer yesterday, and when I got home I see 2 screws at my feet that looks like it holds the radio in at the bottom so they popped it in and didn't screw it in... Love how people don't care if it ain't theirs...
It was under warranty 100k...

 

Which Mazda dealer was it?

 

It was the Mazda Dealer in Walnut Creek...
Unless the new display came with new screws doubt it they left the 2 on the floor...

 

Oil filter question...

Do any of you use a larger oil filter.
K&N for us is the HP 1008.
But the newer model Rx8 use the HP 1006 which is a taller one.
Have any of used a larger filter is it worth it???

And also after research the HP 1010
Is bigger all around with the same thread size and pitch but need to measure the O ring diameter for it is larger than both of the above I mentioned...

Why K&N because it's easy with the 1" nut on top to change...

 

i've used a 1010 for a couple years.

 

My bad not the 1006...

The 1010 is for the newer model rx8
