    It's Official..

    Believe it or not, the rubbing actually happens in the front.. The lip has a little hook to it (if you want to call it that) where it goes down from the outside and under and then back up a little.. I talked to some people who have done those kinds of things, so I don't think it would be too...

    Lol. Tim doesn't do that to me, he just comes home and says "I did something bad today".. I heard it once when he went to the dealership to get new tires and came home with a new CAR.. Then there was the time he called me from Best Buy and showed up with the 50" hi-def flat screen TV...

    It's like this /\ lol. It's not bad, but may need to be taken care of. I just did the springs a few days ago so I haven't gotten the alignment or anything else done yet.. The rubbing isn't too bad, and right now the tires that are on there are the stock 225/45's from the RX-8 so all I'll...

    It's Official..

    Lol.. We saw the pictures of where someone had color matched one and it looked really good, so that may be the next project. I want my windows tinted.. and an intake.. If I didn't only have 6,000 miles I'd probably want the turbo too.. Mods are like tattoos I think.. They say you get one...

    It's Official..

    My first modifications are complete! The Tein S.Tech springs came in the mail last week, along with my fiance's springs and new 19" wheels for his RX-8. We had a little garage weekend, put his springs and wheels on, and I did the springs and swiped his stock 18's for my car. I had pictures...

    Mazdaspeed 3. Hatch or Sedan?

    I like the sedan.. But then again I'm a girl and somehow the hatch just looks better with a guy driving it lol. Kind of like the WRX.. Yet to see a girl driving one. :)

    Wheels and Springs.. Episode 2

    Either way, thanks for the help guys. And thanks for being NICE to me! I calculated the 225/40/18's and that was only 0.1%, so it sounds like I'm in the market to buy tires..

    Wheels and Springs.. Episode 2

    I appreciate your help. It says it's a 3.6% difference. How much is too different?

    Wheels and Springs.. Episode 2

    I did listen. ??. I asked if they would work, and I got an answer, that's why I'm prepared to buy new tires. Did you see me ignoring you? I've been here 3 days.. Do you have some kind of problem with me already?

    Thinking of getting a 8

    LOL.. No, I know what a rotary is.. It's just a big joke with me and my fiance. I drive a 3 and he's got the RX-8. He put that in my signature on the Revolution Motorsports forum too. He did a big class presentation about Felix Wankel for his marketing supply chain class a few years back...
