bump?

 

i don't know how many people would go with the short notice. i think your best bet is to call or text the guys that you want to go. are you having it pot luck style also?

 

eh, doesn't matter...

I just found out on thursday night that my folks were leaving for the weekend.

 

sup bitches!!!

 

I finally got some time to snap a few pictures of my car:

 

sweet rodger.

please tell us that u r going to take off the euro plates and not be gay like all the ppl we see driving around with regular plates on top of euro's- like some kind of elitist club... lol

seriously...

 

Well, for one... those people didn't go to Europe and get their car!

My euro plate actually came with the car.....

But I digress, when I get my CA plates, the euro plate is coming off.

 

i think out of all the japanese cars i've driven, the 8 comes closest to the way bmw feels. i've had the bmw a lot longer than the 8. but, when i first test drove the 8, i was surprised the response & feel was very in tune w/ the driver- much like the bmw.

oddly, most ppl i know either go from being bmw owners to 8 owners or vice versa...

 

man that new rx-8 sure looks funny..
but i still like the blue..

 

once again i would like to thank
three of the bestests guys on the forum.
danny, jorge, and tim...
for help with the screamer

 

car looks good roger, not sold over the bmw interior but is is not bad looking.

 

the back end, 3/4 view of the rear kills it for me. Not sure why, just don't like those lines.

Other then that, bitchin' car!
+1 to lesper's comment about the interior

 

Michael: glad we could help you out. (even if I got stuck on the phone while you did most of the work)

Always good to see you!

 

what do u guys do when michael's clutch goes out? Do u flatbed it to Mazda or is it still somewhat driveable?

 

it was the clutch pedal..
i had to drive it for afew days
after it broke, those were not fun
days. i would recommend getting
getting bhr's replacement pedal.
the car really goes into gear better
with the adjustment they have on it..

 

the bhr is what jorge has right? liyan got the mazsport one right before they went outta business...

 

yup, I've had the BHR bracket since about May. Clutch feels much better

 

So who's coming to the meet this Wednesday?
