Nice i saw your greddy se exhaust...My buddy had that on his 8 before he sold it...when he got on it sounded amazing...was that on when i saw you? Seems new...what you going north for? this time of the year it's time to go south lol

Sparks91188

lol no I just got that and the intake recently. and I will not be going north until may for a car show that I was in last year that is part of ACEN which is a huge anime convention. This year it is out doors which mean drifty drifty instead of it being inlock down for 3 days in the con hall.

RyansRx8

Well you need to keep checking out on here for meets and stuff we want as many people as possible

Sparks91188

Me and the mrs will have to try and make one. my problem is I work alot being the closest thing our shop has to a manager lol.

RyansRx8

ahhh you busy man well whatever works out bro

Sparks91188

RyansRx8

Once we all figure this out then we will haha

RE_guru

just bought mine a couple months ago its an 04 GT 6spd with the aero pkg this isn't my first rotary i have had all 3 gens rx-7s. I live near arnold and am sometimes at midnight madness in the hardpark section outside the drift pit with my FD. Is anyone on here on driftstl.com.

perks11

welcome RE, I think I'm a member on there, but I'm never on there, the only STL member on here that seems to drift is sparks.

hope the instal went well saturday james. Sorry I couldn't make it, I was up at joe machens until around 12:30 or 1 trying to figure out what was up with my car alarm. Completely took the fuse out of the connector to the positive battery terminal and the siren still sounded, only way to get it to stop was to take the connctor off the negative terminal. Joe machens sure finds a way to mess everything up, I think they are the main reason I am looking into a new ride.

SAINTS won too!! Put that in there just for you ryan!

Sparks91188

I am a member on drift stl though I dont check it as often as I should considering I am friends with most of them that run it lol

Cf05

Lol I watched the game with Ryan I was goin for the saints I don't think he was too happy when they won

and welcome to the club re hopefully well see you at some meets

RyansRx8

congrats on the new 8 re looks like your very familiar with the rotary lol I think rodney(totalimmoral) is part of the drift scene as well...brett that was such a good game but unfortunately the vikings lost haha looks liike the super bowl could be a good one

perks11

the super bowl is going to be the game everyone was looking for including ESPN and the NFL.

For any of you college basketball fans ESPN is the place to be tonight. Mizzou vs Kansas at 8 PM. one of the most hated rivalries in college sports...though it kills me to say Kansas will most likely win, its always a fun game to watch.

Found out what was up with my alarm, the mechanics somehow tripped the factory alarm on my car and that was the alarm sounding, not sure how they did that one, but its supposedly fixed.

RyansRx8

Thanks for the heads up Brett I think im gonna watch the mizzou-kansas game I have nothing else to do lol Another good job by the columbia mazda mechanics? lol

RE_guru

are u talking about adam, nick becker and scott or the people that run MM???

Sparks91188

yeah the ones who run MM I met them through John Stecher (who owns the initial d rx7 and ae 86 that was destroyed) by playing airsoft. we are close friends now. then I went with him to MM one day and met Scott and all them. It has been a while since I have been out there though. Tony remembered me and Cankles did but Scott I had to remind lol the last time I was there last year.

RE_guru

yeah cankles is part of our team and Tony is constantly getting fed here. john was over 2 weekends ago trying to get Koopa's hachi running in my garage.

TotalImmortal

Yeah I am a member of driftstl but I never go on the site anymore. I know Kyle from DSM long ago, and I have hung out with a few other members on there a few times. I also have an fc that I am building strictly for drift.

Cf05

Hey guys the STL car show is this weekend I thought we could get a small meet together for that maybe get some dinner afterwards leme know your thoughts!

RyansRx8

You know I'm in Charlie...wheres it at btw?

perks11

I'm sure it's at the convention center, that's where it's been in years past if I'm not mistaken. Not sure I'll be able to make it back for that one. i

I came pretty close to punching my tv last night, mizzou sucked! Good thing the game doesn't mean that much and we are still on our way to march madness.

got the rx8 back today until the engine comes in sometime later this week. I kinda forgot how much I love this car, I dunno that I can get rid of it guys!! At worst I'm atleast gonna try and hold off until the car auction in early april. They had some sweet rides last year. Including a twin turbo 93 rx7 that went for around $17 K. But the 8 is just so fun, as of right now the car search is on hold, who knows by this time next week after having to deal with this dumb dealership up here, I may be lookin at some new cars again.

Sparks91188

I have to work this weekend sorry plus my brakes are shot waiting for my rotors to get in. I got my pads in though. so my 8 will be down for a while until I get the brakes changed. I think I am going to paint my calipers too will I have the 8 on the stands.

Re- that sounds like john lol and Koopa is still working on his hachi? I dont know if we have met in person or not. I am usually bad with names but great with faces. I will have to make it out to madness soon though I need a battery tie down so I can drift. Then again I am a little rusty with my drifts lol. I need to find a lot to practice or in the middle of no where. It sucks though I have so much to try and get down before May when I go up north again with John back to ACEN. New rims, new wing, possibly a new kit, but I will need a paint job though Idk how much that is gonna coast.

RE_guru

are u talking about kyle crangle???? if so i was at his grad party this sunday.

yeah koopa's hachi needs a harness it isn't pulsing the injectors. there are a few good lots down here near arnold i hit 2 are fairly safe provided ur aren't there for more than 30 min.

steve burket was selling his mint 93 rx-7 with 40k original miles garage kept and everything under the hood replaced as a precaustion cause it had sat for awhile. he might still be willing to part with it if he sold the spec miata. he only wanted17k i would have bought it if i had the money.

Sparks91188

That is not a bad price a little more than I paid for my 8 but still I would probably jump on that if I had the cash. Hopefully koopa gets his hachi running right. I know john plans on rebuilding his, but Idk when he is gonna start on it or what time frame will be on it till it is done. I know I need to get out to Arnold sometime soon it has been since last year since I was out there lol. we will have to hit up those spots before I go back out to MM granted I get some sort of tie down for my battery.

TotalImmortal

I believe that's his last name. I don't know him real well just from meets here and there. He has a black S15. I need a job so I have money to finish my fc :-(
RE where in Arnold are you located I live just north of the Meramec bridge on 61
I believe we are going to the auto show on Saturday.
