Thx man. I think the vert rims are too small tho. I had to upgrade recently and cop the BBS RS's. Man, I cant wait to throw em on with some bomb tires and tucked in the rear.

Sigh....until then I'll be checking out the FC photo's section.

haha...probably. I was thinking of lettin them go and kinda realized they have sentimentel value. I just saw a set of four being sold for $200 in the west classified section w/tires and center caps.

You know what tho, if you can hook up a trade for a decent BOV together with a turbo timer somehow, we can work out a deal

Great people!
They went out to the meet?? No way! Hahaha ... so they are social. That was the first one that I could've made it to and I didn't because my brother was in town and we had gone to Autobacs and to say hi to Yosuke & Yoshiya on Wednesday. Damn.

Yeah they were behind me for a while then I pulled into the parking lot and sure enough they turned there too. I talked to them later and, like everyone says, they BOTH are realy nice people.

^You're close compared to the guys in Riverside lol.

I'm just glad I stole a ride with Andrew, I would have probably spent 20 bucks in gas if I went in the TII.

No they dont tune FCON VPRO. Motors however are a yes. Infact im having my motor done there (with a PFC tune). If you need an FC3S fcon Vpro harness however I have a brand new spare one. You just need to source the brain and sensors.

If it looks like the one in his sig then I'm guessing no, that's not his car.

Well, still can't get an appt with Mazdatrix. Can't get squeezed in early with XS Engineering. So here are my new plugs (9's) after only a few hundred miles since my retune from Neptunespeed. I am hoping I do not have another blown engine! Drove car to work on Friday and it was ok. Went to lunch started it and it sounded fine untill I put her in gear, sounded like engine was blown. Engine stumbles and giving it gas kills it. My IACV buzzes real loud, so I replaced it. The brand new one does the same. I've killed power to the battery but that hasn't helped. Next is new plugs then new O2 sensor (current one has 5k miles on it).

R&R does tune (The Santa Ana R&R) , and to me is a better value than all the other guys because they'll charge a flat rate and take their time on your set up and they will included driveability and fuel economy tuning.

What is the coast of R&R? I thought that they out sourced their tuning XS.

I am still building my car. I just got my 3574 kit in and will start installing. I am hoping to be ready for tuning with in the next month or two. I would love to have Kan tune the car, but I do not know how long I will have to wait. As far as Neptune I am not to sure. I need to hear about some more success stories.
