There's a couple more I'll throw in there, but I don't have the energy for perfection right now. :)

:iagree: Same here! Nothing new or fancy except for installing my extra vert wheels on the trailer but that requires work lol.

I have a short list of things to do.
Just haven't had the time to get on it.
I hope to have theses things done before DGRR 2012

1. Change out the solid motor mounts to polly mounts.
2. Replace the trans and rear end fluids with redline fluids.
3. Install lowering springs and then get a alignment done.

If the FD is done, tuned, and ready.
SA too far along still
Camaro, dont have 3 rotor
Repu - hope to have sold by then

FC Zach 01-18-2012 10:06 PM

So Chad, you're actually going?!

djmtsu 01-19-2012 07:57 AM

No, he is just posting what he could do if he were going :)

I have to fill it with fuel, throw some 2 stroke and extra quart of oil in the trunk and give it a bath.

I took the time off from work and plan to go if I can get the FD or SA done.
FD just needs the tuning done, and some small things.
SA needs wiring, tuning, tranny mount, and alot more crap

By no means is this my entire list but a poor college girl can't afford the fancy stuff :(

1.) Finish painting my summer rims -one down, three to go
http://i877.photobucket.com/albums/a...areoutside.jpg

2.) Detail my entire car

3.) New Intake

4.) Change all fluids

5.) Get an epic rotor tattoo

6.) Pack like a girl

7.) Maybe find a co-pilot

8.) Gas n' Go !!!

9.) Avoid tickets and wrecks - this will be my last Dragon run under my warranty so if my engine goes I hope it is on my last run of the weekend :coolgleamA:

Love the color match!! Mine are white now (I need an updated pic). The car is ready as is, but if I have extra cash before hand I MIGHT lower it :)

DO IT!!!!!!! If I could afford it I would certainly lower mine but i need a new exhaust first - she sounds so quite the 7 guys kid me and constantly asked if it's even running :( I'd like to see what yours look like white - I didn't think I would be a fan of the matchy-matchy rims but it's growing on me.

here is a pic of mine. I love the look. My wife saw that I posted about possibly doing springs before hand, and that has apparently been changed to a definite. I love my wife, she is awesome!

I liked yours better the way it looked in your sig.

I looked FOREVER to find a good white RX-8 (both times I have bought one) and always came up short. They always had the red/black interior, or were beat bad.

My new 2006 Phantom Blue has the wing and aero package, and I wish it didn't :(

I'm weird like that.

my88vert 01-26-2012 07:49 PM

i already got started on some of mine
1) new wheels and tires-done
2) tune-up-done
3) install full poly bushing kit-50% done
4) replace ripped vert top
5) buy and install roll bar
6) buy/install prosport oil temp and egt gauges
7) wrap header and replace exhaust gaskets
8) possibly buy rotary aviation adapter for omp or make a block-off plate and pre-mix
9) basic stuff like oil change/fuel filter etc.
10) other cool stuff i find that i want before then!

Sephitrask i really like the white on white!
