you feeling jealous that rancho only has a few 8's and rancho is growing into its own club maybe? lol

kwescott

you did lose Krazie though...so be careful...

I know of two other 8's, one a bloc over from us, and another three streets north....and I always see some at Cherry/Baseline...but they aren't on the forums. I know there are so many out there that just don't understand the culture around this car. I know I was a little surprised when I found the forum and began learning more about the car. I have to be honest, I bought the car, not knowing much about the rotary engine.

very true i knew about the car and the engine but just not the culture, culture of the rotary and cultrue of modding

SnowFl8k

Trust me - Keith knew ALL ABOUT the culture of modding!

kwescott

So, what do you think has received more modifications...the 8 or the S10?

KrazieKave

i would have to say the eight... because i havent seen the s10 lol

Exotic

KrazieKave

kwescott

I've driven down Arlington a couple times...and have been to the Riverside Mazda once.....you may have seen me on my way to Norte Vista High School.

velocityredRX-8

Do you go to UCR? I've seen a lot of 8's around campus nowadays but have yet to meet any of them.

kwescott

any of you recently new to this thread...coming to the San Bernardino meet this weekend (Saturday)...we will be meeting at Beryl Park in Rancho and doing a drive on GMR.

Now I know how Kieth feels...........

Someone dented my car.

kwescott

I can send you the info on the paintless dent guy...he did an awsopme job..or just find a guy in your neck of the woods. Should be about 25-50 bucks per dent.

Razz1

I know the area manger. Need to go over to his house tomorrow.

How is Erica's 8?

kwescott

we attempted to put things back together but we're kept from being successful by the bumper retainer clips. We went to autozone, pepboys and Napa and weren't able to find any clips that would work...so we'll stop by mazda tomorrow and hopefully have better luck. Her driver's side oil cooler was bent back up into the wheel well....it was actually hitting the tire. We removed the fender wells, and bent the cooler back a bit so we could drive it home.

She had a lot of debris in her tires, and it actually took the tire off the bead in a couple of places. Had all four tires taken off and remounted. The rims are still true, so no need to replace any of the rims.

The front bumper is salvageable, I think. We'll call M1 and see what they say. I'll probably shoot them some pics by email. The driver's side side skirt is pretty much trashed. I was going to try and patch it with some of that fiberghlass repair stuff...but thought I should call M1 first...I don't want to make things worse since I have never done that before.

Still very dissapointed in what happened...I think she is still in shock from what happened.

yeah i hope it works out, i got some peppers in a jar to chear her up! just to check are we keeping this on the DL? i wont shoot it out but if people ask? hoep to get her back up and running, if you need help with anything let me know.

kwescott

from what I hear from her, she doesn't want people to feel wierd about bringing it up. I wouldn't shout it out, but if people are asking, I assume it would be ok to let them know what you know.

Also, the passenger side wheels were scratched all over the place...so now they are curbed as well as scratched.....

dastallion951

hey all been a long time since i been on this thread........just curious got the greddy turbo kit comin in less then 2 weeks.......yea i know what ur thinkin but im gettin the complete kit for 800 unopened n unused......includin boost controller turbo timer n blowoff valve..........i was curious any of u rotary professionals.......know of any reputable rotary shops local to inland empire that u would recommend me goin to get the install and tuning done................if any ideas would really appreciate it.

kwescott

you may want to pm sopheak....he did the install himself...or you may want to pm Xped as he just assisted another forum member with his Greddy install.

Razz1

Or go with Relable rotory in Santa Ana.

You will find you need at least $2500 more to make the kit complete.

I would really say $5000 and then it's reliable, after all you need a 1500 dollar Inteceptor.

kwescott

interceptor x makes the kit come alive....emanage is good to start with if you are low on funds.

Razz1

Kieth, I really need to here that RP cat coverter.

WOO HOO been out of work for 5 weeks and got a new job.

Will start in two weeks.

Now I can go on vaction to see parents in FL.
