just saying hello. i live in St. Paul and picked up a black 06 shinka from a guy in Minneapolis on April 1 - hopefully i'm not the fool. fun, impressive car (even stock) and i like knowing i will not see another 30 of them on the road every time i take it out. used morrie's last week to take care of a couple outstanding recalls / TSBs and was satisfied; as long as i'm lacking the space to do it myself will probably go back for the 15k service whenever i get there and to check on the rear end "growl" during low speed turns after long highway driving. this forum has been an awesome source of info so far as i'm learning the car. enjoy the driving weather! Hope we can have a meet sometime soon! I found a cool 50's drive in diner over by lake minnetonka!! i stopped there with my girl. Would be cool to fill that place with 8's :lol::lol: |

|
I remember prom... It was okay...
Last day in florida.. Unfortunately there are not too many 8s in Orlando. I've seen maybe two... There a crapload of s2000s and dodge chargers though.. |
anyone in the twin cities area have experience with clear bra installers locally? i've found through the 3m website that kline nissan, maplewood toyota, mounds view saturn, and others will do it, but wouldn't mind getting a "yay or nay" about a particular installer before having it done.
always said i would never buy another black vehicle, the front of my truck looks like salt-n-pepper, but ended up getting a black 8 and now i want to save the nose. if anyone has an installer related opinion i'd like to hear the story. http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3...ind_Installer/ thanks all! |
I go to Underwood which is a small town east of Fergus Falls.

Haha, nice mn_rotary. Did a meet happen on Saturday?
Skater, I noticed you bought zex kit at the same time I bought mine. Mine is sitting in my living room as a conversation piece at the moment. If you want to get together to attempt an install that'd be cool. Let me know. To everyone else, I think I'd be up for a meet this coming Saturday. |

I saw someone with a black 8 with painted black oe rims parked up on the street. whos car was that? should of made it early and you could of got a spot to park.
|
Dark Chrome Stocks
Does anyone in here want or know of anyone that wants Dark chrome stock wheels? I have a set that I am trying to get rid of locally, I will also throw something on the for sale page as well. But just want to see if I can draw interest from the local thread first. I am selling therm for 300 tires are pretty much gone but the rims are in great condition.
|
Hey, can any of you tell me how the local dealerships handle modded cars and warranties? I'd like to get my engine checked out. Have any of you had any trouble?

Sorry I have not been on the boards latley, I just picked up a BMW 535i and have been working on that a lot.
Side note, I just got some new front rotors for my rx8. I have the OEM ones lying around. If any of you want it, PM me. I'll let you pick it up for free. |
So who is all planning to attend C&C in a couple of weeks? I may make the 3 1/2 hour trip down the night before and get a hotel room, check out the sights that the twin cities have to offer :lol:. Just wondering if there is generally a nice turnout of 8's or if it would be more beneficial to wait for just an 8 meet so I can show off my stock 8 :tear:
|
Lol! This year, C&C has just been a two-man show. 2 shots from the 2nd.

as you can see from madeulook's pics. if you go to C&C you need to get there early around 8 or you will have no where to park your ride.
