Sorry about your leg AJ, feel better dude. I didn't got to Phil's today. DMV took forever but I am finally fully legal in NV and I even got personal plates. Going tomorrow. I want that coil and compression test.

Erick is coming in to install the rest of the bling over the intake. He is also installing a new fuel pump. If anyone wants to stop by, your welcome. Erick should be here about 11am.

AJ found my cell phone wot wot!!! ^_^ now I dont have to buy a new ($300.) phone! I'm going to call T- Mobile and have them turn my phone back on. Hope I get the same number >_< now I can buy some tires lol
Gil's phone was in my car after all. Good thing you came over tonight or it would still be there!
Thanks guys, Phil I may take you up on that offer for the fuel pump after all. Just til the new one gets here.
Chun I thought we checked your coils last week. What do your plates say? Chun's8?
ffmieres that midpipe is loud people sell that thing in the for sale section all the time.

AJ, your welcome to the fuel pump. I talked to Erick and he is about a hour out - road construction is holding him up. I think he forgot he was supposed to install the new fuel pump. I have Jeff's tool and one I had made to copy it.
Chun never installed the one I gave him - we can do it today as it's easy.
AJ, I have that pedal ready to go if you want to change it out - but don't reinjure your leg in the process. Armin was thinking about coming back over today.

Holy **** is that how fast my car is supposed to be??? For as long as I have owned her I don't think she has ever driven this well. I wasn't the original owner. I wonder how long my coil was bad.
I ended up defogging the airbox, cleaning the throttle body out a little, cleaned the air mass flow sensor, clean the airbox screens, changed the bad coil and ran a compression test. Kasumi was just the slightest bit below min spec. So a new engine will probably have to wait until she gets worse.
Thanks to Phil for the garage, tools and coil. Thanks to Eric, AJ and Ray from Sin City Rotary for the advice and instructions. I'm glad Ray got to meet a few of the fellas and got to see Phil's stealth bomber.
Phil, I found the vacuum hose the was loose, check engine light is gone

I gotta say Gil, it is pretty damn bad ***. I still gotta do the throttle body coolant bypass and the pressure blast the **** out of my engine bay. Still need to do the tranny fluid too and maybe remove the snorkel. Plan to do it myself with a little help from the guys.
Once she's kind of caught up then I'll start thinking a few mods again. Probably have to leave it at some new coils and an AP.

Thank you to Phil for the clutch pedal fuel pump and the tool to get it out! I will get my pump and clutch pedal back to you. I still haven't done the clutch, yet. Thank you Phil!
Thanks Eric for the advice and info on getting in removed and replaced. It was a bitch just like you said, I modded Phil's tool with duct tape after trying to chisel it out and it work like a dream.
Well I took a look at both filters and they were both pretty clean and actually Phil's had a little more debris than mine. I hope this fixes it.
Chun you can probably beat that FD now instead of just keeping up with it.![Eyetwitch](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/eyetwitch.gif)
Gil it was never the throttle body bypass, it was the fuel pump...I hope. I'm beat and smell like fuel.
Phil my buddy has a hook up for the Tshirts just get me the design! Did I say thanks?
