NEMOC Random BS Thread

[zoom_craigy_zoo]

I used to be a moderator on one of the other Mazda forums, and let me tell you, the whole Mazdaspeed3 owners**, they can be real pricks. It seems since they have a turbo'd car, they are "king s***" compared to everyone else. I'm really sorry to hear that this sort of stuff made COBB lose interest in supporting the whole Mazda community. That really sucks.

**This is not a blanket statement about ALL Mazdaspeed3 owners, just merely an observation of mine.

I am pretty sure that Mazda gave me a crown when I purchased mine...
I'm kidding. But yeah it sucks that it happened, its mostly because of the .org guys, who are generally made up of the people that were banned from the other forums (not all of course).

"Used to"? you arent a mod over there anymore?

 

[zoom_craigy_zoo]

I resigned from being a mod. There was too much drama and too much behind the scenes stuff I just didn't want to deal with anymore. It made the forums seem like a job to me, and I just want to be able to enjoy them, not police them.

Same thing happened with the MSP until the SRT4 came around. It goes with the territory I guess.

Yeah that's my route every morning.. I head West. I did see a MS6 this morning....

I also live maybe 0.5 miles from the HS..

Did you have the RX-8? I thought it was your car.

 

[Skywlkr]

I did.

It's just the one right? and it's pretty simple correct?

Why is that Ashley? Just remember, there are always people worse off than you. I was having a bad day the other day, and I was going to share it with the girl who cuts my hair that night for conversation, but when I got there, she was all upset, and I asked why, and it was because her boyfriend's sister's son died a few days ago. He was outside playing when he came across their pool which had some ice on it, but not very thick ice. He decided to play on it, and he fell through. They didn't discover his body for an hour and a half. Everything from my day at that point just seemed trivial.

The only mod that is easier than the rear engine mount is the race/test pipe mod.

You'll need to support the motor when you are taking out the motor mount.. That's the only hard part.

put a set of sway bars on the miata yesterday and snapped one of the studs in the back that hold the bracket on. On a brighter note installed the front splitter on the miata and doesn't look half bad(will try to get pics later). Anyone with a miata or know of anyone who has one looking for parts, check out trackdog.com
their prices were very good and got the parts right out to me.

Just got word that my selection for Individual Augmentee to go over to the dirt box is at the final level. This is where they make the decision on whether I go or not.

Yay.

Hey John,

trackdog.com doesn't seem to work. Get some other website, ads, etc.

Send some pics!!

Since we will be convoying soon, looking for a 2 way radio. Looking at the Motorola T-8500R. Any comments?

[subspeed6]

Not necessarily a dirt box, but Guantanamo Bay, Cuba is where I will be going if selected.

I have some cheapo radios I bought a while back, anyone have their radios to bring to the cleaning meet to see if these cheapos will work with your radios. It does like 24 channels but just want to make sure before I got on the trip.
