Did anyone else get their recall letter in the mail? I got mine yesterday.

 

got my letters yesterday, too.

 

haha, it was just last night mike

But i didn't receive my recall notice yet. When are you guys going to get the recall done?

 

I got mine on Saturday as well.

 

yea 12k sounds about right especially since a second party insurance is paying for it, so most likely the body shop will gouge and keep digging for more gold.

Are you guys planning on taking it to the dealerships? For some reason i'm not really that worried about it, but last time I took it to the dealership they said they won't be able to service my car b/c it's too low . But that was almaden, think I'd go to burlingame.

 

Well its presents a problem for them. Better them tell you that then mess up your bumper. And besides, I can't even get my toes under your bumper dude, lol. But yes, I plan on having it checked out, and see if they know what is causing my power loss problem as it happened again yesterday. I also want to get the newest flash. I'm hoping to get some of the power I lost when I got the shitty R flash.

 

'sup everybody, just got an RX-8 about a week ago, I've been lurking here for a few weeks now. I figured I say hi to everyone... I'm from San pablo, btw
...used to drive an FC (NA) and an AE86 coupe.
hope to meet most of you (if not all) in the future meets.
there are gonna gonna be RX-8 meets in the bay, right?

 

Hey, whats up man, welcome to the club! Glad we got a new member and experienced rotary driver here. Umm, for the meets, keep track of this thread: https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...=1#post1516807 for meet info, i'm trying to schedule a gokarting meet in burlingame but with the current turnout, not sure if it should be worth it at the moment. But welcome and hope to meet you as well!

Any plans for modding the 8? What color and package you got? Alright man, take it easy!

Jon

 

wttc!

 

wth does that mean? hahaha

 

Thanks! it's silver w/ sport package and as far as mods... just bought a K&N typhoon kit ver2 (en route) and I'll be installing the tanabe GF210, EBC pads and rotors, techna-fit ss lines (brake/clutch), mazdatrix 8mm wires, clear corner light housings this weekend.

welcome to the club noob

 

haha, wow I havent been updated on the new internet linguo lately. hahahaha

 

does anyone know who's rx8 is this? i swear i saw it on the club before but dont remember it being in richmond.

Its a really nice car... i wonder why he's selling it..

 

Just did a little reserach and found out its "Rx8spirtR", the picture that was used for craigslist was the picture he used for at the "calling all Rays" thread... i wonder why he's selling it..

 

Would anyone be interested in purchasing a spare tire and spare tire mounting kit for about $200 obo?? PM me if anyone is interested, i did it here for local pick up. I dont want to pack it up and ship it. So if anyone locally is interested, let me know! Thanks

i think he mentioned getting a porshe.

 

oh dang, thats cool, those carrera s are pretty nice, im seeing a lot of them on the road now


Just saw a Supra for sale for $20k, i might sell my 8 for it.... i'm really thinking about it, i'll be going to san leandro to check it out on monday or tuesday... might be bye bye for my 8..

 

I'd do it.

I have been thinking about that new higher hp 07 350z lately. Depending on how much its actually going to have, I may make the move. Just sucks that I have a final gear, flywheel and header just sitting around.

 

well, you put so much work in to your 8, i wouldnt do it. on the other hand, my 8 just has a few things, not as much as yours.

 

That is the only reason I have hesitated to get rid of it for the last year. Everytime I get a new mod, I'm happy, but it quicky goes away. I'm content, but not truly happy. We'll see how things go.

 

did a quick canyon run at calaveras earlier, made me appreciate the 8's capabilities once again. anyways, wierd thing, this is the first time after a run that my 8's steering is a little "loose", it feels different, can't put my thumb on it but its just a little looser, the responce is just wierd. can someone enlighten me with your wisdom on steering??

 

got my clear corners yesterday! yay!!

 

damn how long have you gone without clears? i ordered some like a month after i got mine
