Thanks to mr marco.. ETS intercooler is now added to the rdx.. now need to find time to instal the p2r gasket and finish my pulley install

Mr Marco

TMIC Ninja at work. Amazing job, considering you had that swarm of bees on your face too.

looks like i am losing my tan and you added it =) haha

these are the wheels i am thinking doing..http://gasperformance.net/wp-content...ijin_cajun.png wheel weight per Tire rack.com shows 22.8 lbs which is just under stock i believe..

talked to the wife about your winter ones she is interested we cant get them now though like i said just have to wait till we move

Mr Marco

I am a big fan of the dark wheels...Looks great to me.

Still have plenty of time till winter hits. I need to start saving for my GMC unless "Stealershit" will cut me a deal. Not looking forward to the 6.0 gas bill though...

bluecarbonfiber

ya the gas bill will be harsh on the wallet.. should get a deisel and convert it to fry oil =)

Mr Marco

No Hippies alowed on AZ.

Besides, I keep hearing from the wife about how we should have NO car payment for the next 6 months, yet the TL will not be paid off for another 18.

I would have had my S2000CR paid down to $1000 by now...

Logic says we should have paid the TL off while we had the money...but she's a girl and likes to pee sitting down.
Hence the new kitchen/bathroom remodel.

bluecarbonfiber

found you a perfect s2000 http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/ctd/4059194590.html

low miles for the year and decent color..

Mr Marco

RDX KAT

Looking sharp!
Sorry for minor TJ, but I'm currently shopping for a 2010 and trying to decide between Grigio and Polished Metal Metallic. So I'm looking thru as many pics as I can find on here to help decide.

Read this and it thru me off...thought carbon bronze and carbon grey were pre 2010? Did I get that wrong somewhere?

bluecarbonfiber

carbon grey goes through all the years up to 2012 maybe even the newer models. carbon bronze im not too sure of.. i really wanted a white with black interior with navi.. but everything i saw didnt match up or it was beat to hell.. the silver was my next choice and that had the same results.. carbon grey was a third.. and since i have a carbon grey tsx i was ok with it just prefered a lighter color.. honestly the carbon grey on the RDX has more silver flake to it so it really isnt the same as the tsx which has more of a blue tint to it.. BTW it took me 2 years to find one that was to my liking.. so if you are as picky as me you might take a while

RDX KAT

thx! Now I'm considering white again.....AHHHH!

bluecarbonfiber

good luck! i tried and tired just never found one that met the standards

Mr Marco

If I had it to do over again I would have picked the fully loaded Royal Blue Pearl with Taupe interior that was on the showroof floor.
Although, there is another black one that runs around my neighborhood. I often wonder if he catches shit from all the people I cut off in traffic

bluecarbonfiber

^ haha.. lucky me i am the only one in my area with a rdx in my year.. there is a silver 07-09 one down the road but thats it that i have seen.. i feel kinda special =)

Mr Marco

Putting the truck purchase on hold while we budget for the Old Farm House. Sooo, will be driving that old RDX into the ground.

bluecarbonfiber

^ thats a real shame.. sounds like you need to hire a hitman hahaha

Mr Marco

Oh, no... she finally gave up the ghost and we need to pack shit up and market our house ASAP. Going to meet to negotiate the transition on Friday. There are several sticky points left to talk over, such as what to do with the 20 cats...

bluecarbonfiber

well that sucks and is a good thing all into one..

Mr Marco

What I really need is a truck I can use once every couple of months, but it needs to be easily accessable. Like when I was working on the TL at Danger Daryl's house and had to run back to mine to get another jack. I just grabbed the keys to his truck and made the trip back and forth in 35 min. These are issue I had never considered until now (there is no bus line out in the country). I really need a third car in case one of them doesn't start in the morning. Trouble is I don't wanna pay for that thing to sit around month after month, as I would never drive it daily.

bluecarbonfiber

hope to have a truck this summer possibly and a weekend warrior car after that.. just havent decided on what.. i wouldnt mind a galant vr-4 turboawd.. or a lexus sc300 to do a 2jz swap in..

Mr Marco

I was just touting the benifits of a weekend toy to the little lady yesterday. Personally, I'd get another 911. An old POS that needs body work like an old SC. However, they are getting hard to find and many of my 911 connections are now dead and/or gone. I would take an old truck on as a project, but it's too embarrasing to bring to the autocross.

rdxblue

looks good =)

KenB350z

I guess the springs don't look to bad, might jump on that. Yeah, I just wish Rywire made my plug wires shorter...

bluecarbonfiber

ya me too but still easy to install so cant complain too much

KenB350z

I guess so, glad they didn't laugh at me when I told them what kind of car it was for like other shops in the pass.

bluecarbonfiber

ya.. i hear you on that.. when i called places on the turbo half of them said.. BUT WHY? people sometimes are just set in there ways and arent open minded

KenB350z

Yep!
