And then conduct my own crash test experiment or flight test off a cliff with it!

^^^Gives it some what of an Cart/Indy or F1 feel, but that's it.

Iceis8 12-31-2005 03:48 AM

I'v never owned a Auto either but I like the AT's for the paddles to. Not that id buy one but its different. Different can fun.... Till you get used to it and then its not different anymore : )

totally off topic, but got my battery/starter/plugs changed today and makes a world of difference.

also, i found a non oxy station in Coon Rapids for those who live in the area, I'll post location/directions when I visit next time, forgot the street name.

BoosTED 01-02-2006 03:24 PM

time to paint the calipers :)

Bad_Karma_RX8 01-02-2006 11:10 PM

Time to do a lot of things

Bad_Karma_RX8 01-02-2006 11:50 PM

Any color ideas? I a, thinking black to go with the wheels and eventual CF hood, mirrors. I am torn about the wing though. Should I get the MS wing in CF to match the hood?

truemagellen 01-03-2006 12:35 AM

MS wing in CF to match...sounds nice or you could get a CF trunk and silver wing

so many choices

as for calipers silver/black lettering

I'm going to finally put on my G2 kit when I put the summers back on :)

My girlfriend gave me Vanity Plates of my choice for one of my Hanukkah gifts...I can't seem to decide what to put on there...here are my current top picks but I am not set by any means.

I did a hack photoshop job so pardon me...click for larger pics please :).

BoosTED 01-03-2006 05:09 AM

How about TRUE? ;)

I think Shift9K looks good.
REVTO9K would be good too.
REV2 9K is also an option I don't think a character between letters is required.

Not sure if I like the hyphen in there, but that is probably because of my need for balance.

oh I forgot about REVTO9K that was on my old list

There are competing reasons for both.

1. SHIFT9K=Shift signfys MT transmission (well could be the triptronic style I guess) and 9K well you know Red line and Rotary Engine goodness (although the S2000 goes to 9K the engine sounds like it is trying to pinch a loaf at those revs)

2. REVTO9K=same meaning in regards to the 9K redline...Rev is associated with rotaries...'Rev it up' but the real reason is my 'son' ;), our boy Rabbit's name is 'Rev' in honor of the RX-8s and Rotaries and the he runs around the room so quickly only a blur shows up on the video camera :) :) (some of the local guys already know this so I'm just reiterating).

I'm thinking of getting Christine a vanity plate as well because she has a Mazda3 and in Japan it is called 'Axela' and that is the name of our girl Rabbit :)

Rev is the one on the left in both pics with a white 'Racing Stripe' on his head

Okay, completely off topic again (sorry) but I found the address for the Non-oxy station.

Here is a link to the google map where you can get non-oxy gas.

thanks again
