Re: What have you done to your RX-8 today????

Hey Drew, all the way up to chairman now....v posh lol

yeah miss my 8. Will be looking more closely about possibly (probably) getting another one and keep an eye out. Always liked the colour of a stormy, so will maybe start there and has to be a S1 231 as I despise that high tax band!

My Rotary journey comes to an end

Evening everyone, Not fond of saying goodbyes , but my RX8 journey has came to an end, couple of reasons, but nothing I'll go into. I spent far too much,but when you become emotional about a car , it's a roller coaster of a journey. Was extremely difficult seeing the car drive away as was my attachm...

It's maybe related to the chattering marks found in the housing when being rebuilt.

Yeah the numbers are borderline, but the wear is reasonably even too. Depends on the price, but even with those numbers, you should get a good few miles out of it πŸ‘

Re: Honda Accord Type R

I remember not being able to get reverse in mine when static. You could when there was a little motion, but a change of gear oil at the time solved that. Superb cars, a seriously underrated one too.

While the engine is out and being rebuilt, you'd be crazy not to tinker and atleast get some sort of street port :) You know it makes sense ;)

Re: New video

Again Carl as Chris has mentioned, excellent video, FYI and maybe it's just restricted to me, but when watching product vids I really like to see a person in the vid explaining this and that. Suppose it helps add a personality to the product and your company if you get my drift :-k :)

Re: Will I kill an R3 with a 7 mile each way commute?

Whilst we're on this topic is there a general consensus as you how long you have to run an 8 before switching off without any after effects. I ask this as I have to move the car from under cover to where I can wash the car and I'm literally talking about 10 ft. Yes normally you run til the idle sett...
