It appears that I have missed out quite a bit the past couple of days.

The internet @ my parents' house in socal is quite flakey so I didn't really bother with the forums.

Matt, that 3rd brake light looks pretty nice. I've got some red LED's in my lab that will blind the **** out of everyone behind you if you want. I couldn't find any amber ones btw.

Hey all. I'm almost freakin done here! I take my last block test today an then tomorrow I graduate. TMO told me to just wait until I get to Germany to have my things shipped since I'll have a lot more time there. So I'm gonna do that. I didn't get your PM's this weekend because I wasn't able to go to the library. Today I'll fax 7 copies of my orders, and Matt you can just store them until I get to Germany and find out how it's all going to work.

I'm in class right now, on a break so I don't have much time to type stuff. <3

Hey Boys,

My older 350z rims has a bolt pattern of 5 x 114.3, that should fit the RX-8?

Damn, I should have kept the newer tire/rims from the 350z I traded.

Update...well everything went smoothly...car passed the smog, no real issues at the DMV and now I'm a Cali resident. Had to buy new tires though as the RE40s were down to the tread wear bars after ~18700mi (had 245/40 Potenza RE960AS installed...let's just say driving through Wisconsin at one point where it was 33F and pouring rain with the summer tires went slowly and was a factor in my replacement tire choice.)

So these weekly meets eh?

I want to get my car registered in Cali without headaches and I do not want to remove the tint on the front side windows (which are technically illegal). Any info would be appreciated...thanks!
