hehe...well my baby arrived late last night. It didn't take too kindly to the change in altitude. Reset the fuel trims this morning...hopefully that helps a little.

Sohn install in CO
 
Does anyone recommend a shop in CO (Denver Metro ideally) that could install a Sohn adapter and stand alone reservoir? I’m probably not mechanically inclined enough to attempt this.

Thanks

So im throwing it out there: Im the chef at phantom canyon brewery if we can get a few of us together I've got the tab!!! Go for a run come back have beers shoot pool, eat good food, talk shit about pistons?

Iluvrevs 08-31-2011 02:17 PM

8ya 08-31-2011 03:19 PM

Bladecutter 09-01-2011 09:17 AM

Sounds like a plan.
I'll see if my schedule permits.

Also, Red RX-8 sighting in Gunbarrel.
It turned off of Lookout Road onto Spine, right in front of the King Soopers.
If that was a forum member, I was on the motorcycle you got in behind on Spine after making your turn.

I think I've seen that red one there before, too.

BC.

Iluvrevs 09-01-2011 02:10 PM

sarriaga_fc303 09-01-2011 08:36 PM

Was it series II ? I saw one in Gunbarrell one time, it was Series II red. (with those sexy led tails)

Bladecutter 09-02-2011 03:54 PM

I'm fairly sure it was a Series I.

BC.

Kraut 09-02-2011 11:41 PM

I'm around that area in Gunbarrel almost everyday, but thats not me, I'm silver.

I think I've seen that red around too tho, if i remember right it may have been S2, not sure tho

Iluvrevs 09-04-2011 01:20 AM

Spotted 3 today. At about 5pm saw a gray series 1 with custom wheels heading south on the east side frontage road next to I25 between the Longmont and Dacono exits. Just north of the Lexus dealer.

Second siting was a white series 1 in the PetsMart/Borders parking lot off of Hoover at 530pm.

And the third was in the WalMart lot off of 119 near Countyline Road. This was also gray with OEM wheels.

What time is everyone thinking of starting the 9/18 get together?

8ya 09-04-2011 07:21 AM

Im thinking we should meet up around 5 but what ever works for you guys. Let me know and ill get half the bar saved for us... and a couple pool tables.

Thanks, ya after reading around it didn't seem like there was any groups around. But that just means its time to start one! Lol. Well I'm gonna have to try and make it on the 18th, shouldn't be a problem unless I end up having work. But I should be free, and I won't be in my 8 =/

Iluvrevs 09-05-2011 11:56 PM

I will certainly be there.

DeViLbOi 09-06-2011 05:55 PM

Hydr0nium 09-06-2011 07:15 PM

Damn, saw this too late. I am going up to steamboat springs to visit my buddy for the weekend.

Perhaps another get together in early October?

Iluvrevs 09-07-2011 06:48 PM

Any chance we want to do this sooner in the afternoon?

8ya 09-07-2011 07:09 PM

DeViLbOi 09-08-2011 09:34 AM

Yea...I'm down for whenever. The woman and I need a break from unpacking.

Side note - anyone here happen to be at Jetstream and New Hope yesterday around 5?

Iluvrevs 09-08-2011 02:04 PM

I’d be down for getting there around 2pm, maybe earlier if there is consensus.

8ya 09-08-2011 06:21 PM

Im going to be there about noon grab our ables and start drinking. Come down when ever guys!

Savoelh 09-09-2011 11:50 AM

Anyone in the Colorado springs or Denver area wanna let me borrow their stock exhaust system for a short period? I can pay you for yours and your cars time. Reason i ask is because Mazda wants to see an all stock car before they drop a new engine in my car. ;/ The seals blew... And my dad threw away the stock system i had laying around in his garage -_-

Anyways it would be much appreciated if anyone could help me out here.

DeViLbOi 09-09-2011 12:44 PM

Are you coming on the 18th Savoelh?

Heres the good news, i have an extra stock exhaust sitting in the garage you can borrow to do what you got to do, thats no thing. Bad news is it seems your in the springs and im way up in Firestone. Ideas?

8ya 09-17-2011 12:37 AM

When you guys come in to phantom canyon brewery go up stairs to the pool hall ill get a spot with a couple tvs and a pool table or two.

Rtres09 09-18-2011 07:51 PM

So i showed up...but then i realized that i have no idea what yall look like and had nobodys number. Haha. I think next time we need to exchange some numbers...saw two 8's outside though

DeViLbOi 09-18-2011 08:14 PM

Don't worry...we all ran into the same problem. There were talks about getting together next weekend in Lakewood for some event that you had to register for. Thanks for the hospitality 8ya!

8ya 09-18-2011 08:44 PM

That's what happens on the first meet. Don't be shy ask around. Sry for anyone who showed up after 6 I got there at like noon and got to drunk and took a cab home. Lakewood I think at a dealership? Im not sure?

Iluvrevs 09-19-2011 10:37 PM

I hung out at the bar upstairs until 8ya came for the next round I think. Was good to meet everyone and 8ya, thanks very much for the awesome time, good food, and good beer.

Haha, You're so strange, Bon :) Yeah, Sorry I left early, still in the middle of packing my old stuff from Springs to go to Pueblo and unpacking there - I hate it :[

Soon as I fix my RX-7's getting to hot issue, I'd be down for more meets for sure!

The meet @ Lakewood is Mazda of Lakewood for a tech day then cruise - which is the yearly cruise for that area & the CMZC BBQ Anniversary. More info here: http://www.coloradomazdaclub.com/for...ead.php?t=7142

This is what we were doing on Saturday, all day. As soon as you get your car going we got to do a photo shoot with them.

Savoelh 09-27-2011 11:47 PM

Hell yeah. Mazda told me they ordered the new engine already so it should be done in the next week :D

Dam straight son!

Bladecutter 09-30-2011 12:13 PM

Two RX8 S1 sightings this morning...
 
Say a very dark blue or dark purple S1 around 7:40 this morning on the Boulder Turnpike/Foothills Parkway this morning. Lowered, looked like custom rims. Got off at the exit for Pearl Street.

Next sighting was a silver S1, at the Phillips 66 on Lookout Road and Spine Road.
I'm about 95% sure it was Slvrmzdrx8, as that's his haunt. Time was around 7:50 am.

If that was you, wish I could have caught up with you to chat for a moment.
The wing does look nice on the car.

BC.

No sir, unfortunately it was not me, I was sleeping at 7:50am, Which is very odd because i have never seen a silver RX8 in that area. I know there is another guy at Covidien that drives a Gray one with aftermarket wheels. On that same subject, i would really like to catch up with you as well. Ill shoot you an email and see if we can work something out for this weekend or possibly next week or something.
