Hobbes, I m looking for MS wings might ask for your kindly friend help from HK about the price? I dun want to have kits install until next spring since summer ends 3 to 4 months later and I haven't try the snow tires yet which I am looking to see the drop down with the snow tire.

Is anyone going to the CNE gathering at the end of this month?

Today saw
-Yellow RX8 with full appearance kit at Young & steels (unknown driver due to dark tinted windows)
-Titanium RX8 with full appearance kit at Young & steels (white mid age man who drove it)

Hey r888, just so you don't show up by yourself, the CNE venue has been changed. I think i've already had my fill of 8's for now

I only show up to rx8 meets.

You should have been there when Kevin arrived. We *heard* him come across highway 7 and then across the lot. Leigh was like, "THAT'S an RX-8?!" lol

The only video I shot was while she was parked.

HOWEVER :D

I do have a vid clip from a recent BBQ that Kevin hosted at his shop. We shot this just so he could have a sound/video bite of the exhaust note for the shop's website.

I've just found someone to host it and I'll have a link for you Thursday morning (Kevin doesn't have it up on the site yet...)

I'll be sure to let you guys listen to my FUJITSUBO at the next meet. You will be very surprised when seeing the innovative design and sound.

Nonetheless, add a mid pipe to any catback exhaust and it's going to sound loud and mean EITHER WAY.

Besides welding and build quality which is beyond that of every major manufacturer I've personally seen.. (ie.. Greddy, Borla, etc)...

The design of the piping is pretty extraordinary..hopefully I'll show some of you guys in the next meet.

Of course all this costed alot money.. was REALLY hard to find... took forever to get here .... but well worth the wait for my future plans.

tempting accessories?

Broose,

You're killin me man. I guess you listen too well. Nice ride all around. I'm not a polished rim guy but the looked sweet. I have to say the front "air dam" or whatever it's called and the strakes have go me hooked...except for the prices.

I can't remember the name of the guy (sorry) that noticed that my spoiler was not the same paint job (no metallic paint) as the body colour but thanks man. I'll be visiting the dealer for a "chat" and some freebee's (you guys know me!). Ya never know, half off the strakes and front air damn might make it more appealing.

Thanks guys and I wish I could have stayed longer. I would have loved to have gone for the ride and dinner and maybe a beer after. Definitely next time I will clear the schedule for the day.

cheers

I believe that Essential Speed will be hosting a meet in the coming weeks. If you come out you could put your 8 on the lift for everyone to see the work you had done...
