Spent the day rebuilding the front calipers and fitting new disks and pads along with some freshly refurbished stock alloys and centre caps. Car is feeling great with some new rubber and brake setup. Can't wait for the AGM!

Re: What have you done to your RX-8 today????
Took car into Dealers for recalls (including lower arms). Really worried
Got Mazda 3 for two days. Full of gadgets and technology, super safety modern car.
Can't wait to get my loud, old car back.

Re: What have you done to your RX-8 today????
Prepared the car in readiness for my trip to Boston Rotary. I'll come away with new pz suspension, a SOHN adaptor fitted, a minimap, and various other jobs.
I'm looking forward to feeling the difference!
