I'm torn. My wife has fallen in love with the RX-8, but I can't seem to find a configuration that works for us. Leather seats are fairly important to her. The problem is, if the car has a moonroof (All GTs) then I cannot sit comfortably in the car because there isn't enough headroom. So...

yeah, I still haven't found a way to tell. On the current ones, its just a single option. You have to have one of the premium packages, but the LSD is another option on top. I wonder if I can tell by just looking under the car.

Sorry, I meant a used car where they didn't keep the sticker.

I'm looking to pick up a new gen MX-5 and would like to get one with the factory LSD, how can I determine if a car has it?

200g, 300g, 400g, leather, metal, rod, ball, etc.. any pointers for what works best for the p5's driving position? anyone know anywhere in dallas that I can actually play with them before having to buy one online?

thanks for the tips -- I'm totally with you, I graduated college in 03 and have had a full time job now for a couple of years and I feel safe enough moding my car finally, its been a long wait. I hated the stock dunlops, those are gone :-) they hydroplained a lot on the highway. I've been...

good point - -yeah, I'm HS now... i'm actually still racing novice since I'm not very good yet. man, i'd never win if I had to run stock modified...

my car is an 03 manual - I guess I should say, it 'feels' like the drive wheel is slipping when under full power. It is hard for me to describe, but when I really step on it, it don't move forward is a controlled method, it sorta' pulses. I'm hoping its just a wheel slipping.. but I was...

I find that when I give my car all the power it has, the front suspension will shutter or jump a little.. I only really notice it when auto-xing. what do I need to do to fix this? limited slip? new engine mount?

the list is long.. short shifter, engine mount, stereo, speakers, turbo suspension, brakes.. where is the best place to start and are there any mods to avoid or companies to avoid?
