Selfishly going to use my 1000 post to bump up this ol thread. I'v owned the car for about 4.5 years now
Tags are expired and haven’t really driven it much the past 8 months but plan on renewing tags for it next week.
The house is looking like a car lot.
Picked up this Rx8
Working on the REPU
Also working on building an engine for the silver FD.

The silver FD is a customers.
MB FD is wife's wreck FD, Will prob give it to my father in law and buy the wife another one.
Will probably keep and drive the yellow Rx8 for a little. In the process of building an engine for it now.
Silver FD had low compression due to broken corner seals. Engine has been rebuilt and waiting on a clutch.
In other news drove the blk fd for 3 days strait. Still brings lots of enjoyment. I have Ohlins on it and the are a little more comfy than my koni yellow / ground control setup. Wished I had some stock wheels and tires to see how much more comfortable the car would ride with them on.
Thinking about remove my triple gauge pod from the center speaker and oil temp gauge on the steering column. While driving at night the gauges reflect off the windshield which is a little annoying.
Speaking of driving at night, I can barely see with oem headlight and aftermarket bulbs. I had Sakebomb upgraded headlights but they bounced around a lot and didn't like how they reflected off the street signs. It was probably user error install.

Still is an impressive collection regardless.
