there's a WB 8 w/ a kit thats around southlake. he was @ the town center the day of the big racks meet, i was hoping he would be there. It's clean.

 

im always around there

you've probably seen me

 

Wait wait wait... you bought a $30 hardwiring kit!? All you need is a foot long strip of phone cord with one end intact. Then you just wire the other end to your map lights...done.

 

Bought a 6 dollar hard wiring kit
I want it into the homelink system not the map lights
also got 8000k HIDs that I need to install and white fog lights
Anybody have a spare left fog light housing lying around? Mine may be leaking.

 

not gonna be able to make it to the party... since tom. is good friday the school is closed so im gonna have to wait till monday to finish painting.... this sucks!!!!!

 

^^ sucks man, you sure you cant make it? its not this weekend but the next...

 

Alright guys, ordered my stuff...

2 liters of ATE super blue
Racing Brake SS lines
Racing Brake ET500 brake pads

 

haha im trippin... i thought it was this past sat. in that case i will be there

 

Lol sigh, ill add your name back up there...

 

but maybe after 3pm. i work in the morning! is that cool???

 

Based on how much y'all are looking to install, I would recommend getting some work gloves. They have them at Autozone for about $25, or you can get something close at Home Depot for about $10. I know after all the stuff we did yesterday, they would have made a huge difference. After a full day of working on multiple cars, your hands will feel it.

Good luck this coming weekend and have fun! There better be pictures!

 

Shouldn't be a problem. I suspect we'll all still be there..

 

That should be fine

Haha im not worried about my hands, and dont worry ill try to take some pics and/or videos

 

How late are ya'll going to be installing? I have orientation for UTI in coppell on that saturday but its in the morning. I just installed my revi intake, duct, borla exhaust, spark plugs. I have Hawk HPS pads and SS brake lines left to install before the texas 8 meet and i also want to replace my fluids. If yall are going into the evening then id much rather install with some 8 people rather than myself lol.

 

ill be there with my tools but im only gonna help on the major installs that require knowing what your doing. the little stuff ill be sitting around drinkin for.

after this past weekend im exhausted from all the installs and maintnence work

 

I have to do my pads, brake fluid and SS brake lines as well so no worries, come over as soon as you can as we should still be able to help you out. And I dont remember but have you signed up for the Texas 8 yet?

Sounds good Brian, hopefully my brake pad install with ss lines and fluid will be better than when I tried to help you... thanks for coming and lets get this stuff done

 

Nope, ive had a lot on my plate lately. But ive already got the days off from work, so if everything works out then hell yea im going. i missed last year and dont want to miss it again

 

sounds good man...

So my 5th gear grinds now, or grinds a little before going in, sometimes it wont go in... Fantastic!!! Sigh so im taking it to Town North Mazda tomorrow, already called and talked with Tawny (I think that was her name)... I just dont want my brand new tranny fluid to go to waste... I dont remember if Tawny is bad or good... anyone?

 

If you talked to a Tawny at Town North, then you either called the wrong place or it's someone new.

There's 3 people at Town North: Penny, (who most seem to talk to), Victor (who I work with), and then I believe the guy's name is Mike. No Tawny...

 

Hmm well I suppose it could be Penny... idk, im going up there tomorrow though. 5th gear grinds at 4K and higher RPMS now... used to only grind at like 7K Rpms from 4 to 5th... very wierd... so they are going to check it out tomorrow, im gonna try to get it over there and have them look at it before they close so I dont have to leave my car there...

 

Just curious, why go all the way to TNM when classic is probably closer?

Also just FYI, my 4th gear grinds as well (but from 3rd to 4th) but only at high RPMS, and I've never not had it go in (thats what she said), well unless I was being stupid and wasnt applying enough pressue. I've seen alot of other threads on the boards about exactly my issue, but I'm not exactly sure what it was.

 

he's probly closest to freeman mazda.

 

TNM because ive heard alot of good things about them and I dont mind driving the extra mile to get good service.

Hiley is actually closer and im completely unstatsfied with them, so im going to take my business elsewhere

 

GO to MIKE! He's awesome. Tell him you know Ahad with the yellow rx8 and he'll help you out for sure..

 

We get parts discounts with Freeman Mazda and everytime I have had my car serviced there they have impressed me. You guys may want to try them out as well seeing they are a sponsor to our RX8 event.
