Here it is guys, I stayed up late to do this. BTW the date is actually shown as Sat. because the software is on the clock and it is 2:45am so. I forgot to change it and didn't feel like starting over so don't mind the date.



The rest of the photos are here.

Dude Hanzo's Evo is pretty sweet, really enjoy the sound of the turbo kicking in at 3k. I might have to trade my 8 in for an Evo... NOT!!! They didn't have the gold SSR competition rims at tirerack, so no new rims as of now, sucks. Thinking about some cheap ASA rims now though... decisions, decisions.

I started noticing a squeaking noise coming from the driver's side door late last night as I was driving home. Can't exactly pinpoint where it is, anyone else noticed similar noise? Might have to give Capitol Mazda a call.

Have you look at the Advans? http://www.gruppe-s.com/Advan/advanwheels.htm

They are a bit expensive but great wheels:

Need more details.... Did you have the radio on? Was it coming from the speakers? Was it wind noise from the window? Did it happen when you opeaned the door?

Hint...don't run to Cap Maz for realy minor things..that will **** them off.

Lets see if we can figure it out.

Just got back from Resenthal Mazda up in NOVA and it looks like I might be able to get a buy back or trade in my current 8 for a brand new one with no additional charges.

WOOOOHOOO

Does that mean you have to put your old stereo back in and take out the mp3?

My car was out there at 7:00. Before anyone else. If you saw an WRX, you saw my car too since it was in front of it. Why didn't you just come into Starbucks where everyone was? Did you really even drive by? And you need to get over this problem you seem to have with the "kid" and anyone who drives something you consider not worthy.

I agree man. If you haven't gotten the picture yet none of us belittle each other. And since you have shown up there has been a ill vibe that I have tried to make better. The majority of us are loosing patience with you 10K Rever.

We have given you a chance to clean it up. But if you keep comments like that, we will not react kindly to it. Can I get a post in agreemnet Richmond 8's?

That was a fun drive to Williamsburg today, wish there would be as big of an 8 turn out as the Subarus... anyhow got to tap into the potential of my car on the drive, still couldn't keep up with Rever and Hanzo the whole way though. Man that miss-shift into 2nd scared the crap out of me. Hope that never happens again. I'm gonna go rim hunting some more. Oh that mysterious squeaking noise disappeared today, must have been imagining it last night. Anyway tired as hell gonna go rest, laters.
