Looks like they had 30-40 cars at the last run...I bet if all the SoCal people from this forum show up, we can get closer to 50-60 Rotaries out there!
I'm definitely up for something like this....should be tons of fun!
I'm going, how bout you jedi?

I'm definitely in for this run!

This would make for some GREAT photo opportunities; 50 rotaries all crusing the same road!

... am still here as well.

i have to go to my uncle's funeral this Sat, so unfortunately i won't be able to cruise with you guys this time. i SO wanted to go, but family's always gotta come first. we've been having a rough year so far- 'cuz both my pops and auntie are in the hospital as well... (man, getting old REALLY sucks.) but, have been trying to be strong and have faith that things will be ok...

i really enjoyed and needed the (SB) cruise this past sat, because i've been doing nothing but going to work & visiting the hospital the past 3 weeks. it was very cathartic to be out there in the nice weather & open road and temporarily forget about all the stressful stuff in life for just a day...

hope x-ped takes some nice videos of the cruise to share with everyone.

the exhaust? My racing beat fit perfectly in the rear seat, with the tips going where feet would normally go. Just rest it on a towel or something and you wont get any scratches at all. The other pipe you can just put in the trunk. I didnt get any scratches by doing it this way.

I did the exact same thing. Except that I kept the package bubbles wrapped on it while it was sitting in my rear sear. I took the center peice that is between the two rear seats out...and this way you can have the muffler tips facing the front, and the flange going into the hole. I placed a towel on the center console and a couple towels under each muffler. Congrats on the first mod Michael.

now drive it fast so you can really hear what it sounds like

and don't you just love the way the tips fill out the openings now. You'll catch yourself staring....everyone does it, so don't feel bad. That bad feeling you sense, is just your body telling you it wants more....more mods for the 8.

So, what's next? If you like the sound of the exhaust, may I suggest the RB intake with ram air duct.
