Thanks. RX-8 stockers look great when they are PC'd. Good luck man.



Josh, I was going to order a new set of either Nitto NT-05 or BFG KDW in 235/40/18. But then, I still have pretty good amount of tread left on the stock tires. (225/40/18) So I decided to just swap out the rims and ride out the current tires for now.

 

lol

hmm.. i guess you can do that. gives you time to save up for new tires. haha

has koni released anything yet?? or even bilstein?

 

Yeah, I only have 14k miles on the stock tires.. lol Don't want to waste them.

Koni Yellow and Bilstein Sport shocks are all out for my car. Probably at the end of this summer, I'll get a set of Bilstein Sports with a set of Swift R Spec springs. I'll probably wait for some type of special pricing or sale. I can wait.

 

nice!

not too long after i bought my PBM coils for the genesis, they were gathering interests again on Koni shocks.. lol.

its just retarded cuz of the response people post.... lol




atleast i'll have my miata. lol

 

Love the wheels! Always been a fan of wheels just couldn't afford them

Can't wait to see them mounted! And the weight difference is crazy, you'll definitely feel a difference there!

 

MOD YOUR MIATA!

Thanks!

Yes, it's much lighter than the stock one. Almost 6lbs per corner. The stockers look pretty good, but they are heavy for sure.

Can't wait to get them mounted!!!

 

Jin, Nice pick up.

can' wait to see them on your car.

 

haha! i am!! slowly tho. lol

saving up for "newer" motor.. should have 60k-80k ish miles on the newer one.

 

Nice wheels they will look awesome.

 

Thankssssssss

Are you going to boost it?

Thank you.

 

Nice pickup!

 

probably not. its fun with just the basic mods... besides.... i have the genesis for power. lol

 

Thanks!

Good idea. I personally wouldn't boost a Miata, if I had it. Just put some crazy suspension set up and call it a day.

I can't wait to pick up a nice Miata for myself too.....

 

yup!. after my newer motor.. i'll start saving money and begin piecing my suspension. lol

 

I was too busy at work yesterday and will probably not have time to go to the shop during the weekday. I just made an appointment for this Saturday.

arrrrrggghhhhh

Well, I did get a bottle of Goo Gone and took off most of those ugly labels and leftover adhesives yesterday though.

My three puppies all looked at me weird while I was doing that in the living room.

 

Just to let you guys know, Mazdaspeed3 gives you some great insurance rate... I'm now paying $74.97 per month.

I used to pay like $100 but received some additional discount after I got married couple months ago.

 

im paying 145/month for full coverage

no tickets/accidents at fault

should go down on my 25th birthday

 

That's what you get for driving a GenDONE.

 

shouldnt matter, right

 

Yes Bryan, I was kidding.

 

i fale

too tired to sense sarcasm right now

 

That's what I thought. haha go to bed man

 

If I bought a Genpu it would be 83.97 a month full coverage, I just talked to my agent.

 

That's about what I pay for my car...of course, I'm 40, married, own a house, have no moving violations in the last 20 years, and no accidents where I was at fault. All that helps.

 

Then what are you waiting for? Go get a white Genpu right now.

That's amazing for your M5.

Just realized how old you are.

 

I just realized how old I am too...crap.

 

the fuck?

man state farm is ass-raping me

 

just made dinner. knocking out in a bit.

oh, so i guess i misunderstood the letter i got from Mazda. its just a warranty extension on the vvt/timing chain, not a recall

so i cancelled my appointment and im going to reschedule within a month when service is due. saves me a trip to Fresno and i get to sleep after work

 

Dude, call some other insurance companies and shop around. It takes like 15 minutes.

 

Yes.. haha everyone who posted about this at Mazdaspeedforum were getting so much shit for it.

It's all good though.

The closest Mazda dealership is at Fresno for you? Dang.

 

2012

 

Go get it already. I'll introduce you to my E-tuner.

 

there's a dealership here in Selma, but they arent an authorized speed dealership, so they dont even sell them. plus the whole Selma Automall is pretty shady.

Fresno isnt too far, just 1/2 hour away. I can get myself some lollicup while im out there

 

you wont

 

i tried Allstate, they are $20 more per month, and my friends wife is an agent with Farmers, and they couldnt get close to what im paying with StateFarm.

im getting discounts with statefarm that i shouldnt be getting

 

That's kuz Selma is a cow town LOL, Yes good thing the EG one is certified my buddy has to drive 45 minutes because the one where he lives is not certified.

A guy bought one 2012 in white but it was the one at the auto show in Sac so here car was sat in, farted in the whole nine.

 

Got this over at msf.org

 

By the way, I'm going to get this thing done pretty soon! Probably in two weeks.

Should I black out the emblem and the fog light bezel as well? Not flat black, more like black chrome type of feel for them.

What do you guys think?

 

imo.. too much black can be

 

Yeah, everything blacked out looks cheap. That's why I'm trying to leave the high beam section untouched.

Should I leave the emblem and the fog light bezel alone? They will compliment the color of the rims. Both are grey.
