hahaha, same thing happend to me several months back. You can possibly get another OMP and an ECU from Curtis if he has any at his shop. I'd say you'll probably be able to get an OMP from Curtis but the ECU will be the tricky one. I don't know if rotary performance is selling them, or for what gen they are for, but the last time i was there, they had crapload of stock ecus crammed in one of their shelves in the garage collecting dust. Someone had an ecu or two for sale on ebay. You can check there.

I know, sorry to let you down, but I still feel under the weather.
I had a bad cold and my right hand is recuperating from acid burn accident.

Good deal, but an A/F ratio is kinda deceptive if taken at the muffler when you have a working cat...and what happened? NO RX-8s (I guess they got scared some FDs would show up to show them up...), one FD and one FB, mine....it was a nice showing from the 2ndgen guys, though...good stuff there, including a 59,000 mile 10th anniversary...

Why would you want the glaciers to stay frozen? It's all the same thing falling under personal responsibility...

I don't remember seeing that particular white 2ndgen in the avatar up at the meet...did you go to the meet in something else? It'd have been a nice companion to the 10th anni that was there...

I didn't cruise this time, but I did a few highway pulls with the G35 on the way home.

I just called Speed Tech about their Dyno deal. This is the story, $35 for 3 pulls on the last saturday of every month (weather permitting). It is $65 for 3 pulls during the week. Wide Band is extra$. So the 25th is the next time they with do this. I still want to go even if they don't do the wide band.
