#31115 of 31413 Mr. Crab by ateixeira Jun 12, 2009 (7:31 am)
No picture of the crabcake? Sorry, no wide-angle lens! I don't like Mazda's new smiling faces, they're overdone. Honestly I think almost every model in their lineup looked better one generation ago. The new Miata's not bad (much more subtle than some others), but I still prefer my 2008. The interior on the 2009 made some improvements, though, and a higher redline is nice. Lucien: sounds high to me. On the low end, you can get a Bosch aftermarket one starting at around $80. You may want to shop and see if they will install a part if you can supply it.
#31116 of 31413 road trips by steve_ HOST Jun 12, 2009 (9:19 am)
Just got a call from xwesx and they are running behind schedule and don't have time to hang out in Boise and still get the paperwork for the dog done so they can cross the border. Bummer. And I had this huge pile of Edmunds swag collected too. (well, a lightly used ball cap) Replies to this message: ladywclass (Jun 12, 2009 12:03 pm) ateixeira (Jun 15, 2009 11:24 am) hammerhead (Jun 15, 2009 8:18 pm) kcram (Jun 16, 2009 6:12 pm) steve_ (Jun 19, 2009 7:18 am)

Replying to: steve_ (Jun 12, 2009 9:19 am) Yeah, they were through here on Monday, and unfortunately his son was sick the night before, so they didn't stop here either.

#31121 of 31413 New Wheels Mounted! by tsy Jun 17, 2009 (7:12 pm)
I wanted to post a pic of my new wheels on a clean car. Not the greatest pics but at least there's proof the car is clean! tom Replies to this message: rsholland (Jun 18, 2009 4:58 am) tsy (Jun 18, 2009 7:32 am) ateixeira (Jun 18, 2009 10:04 am) and 2 more... rob_m (Jun 18, 2009 5:04 pm) tsy (Jun 18, 2009 8:36 pm) lilbluewgn02 (Jun 19, 2009 5:18 am) tsy (Jun 19, 2009 8:30 am)

Replying to: rsholland (Jun 18, 2009 4:58 am) Thanks Bob No, they're OZ Ultraleggera's, 18x9. It fills out the wheelwells a little better than the stock 18x8.5 and allows me more options to go a little bigger with the tires. I replaced the stock Dunlops with Bridgestones which are a little wider as well (even though they are the 'same' size. People have stuffed 285s on these cars with just rolling the fenders and changing to coilovers! Mileage isn't the greatest- averaging about 18-19mpg, but typically my commute is up and down hills and mileage isn't great anyway. Also the engine isn't really broken in yet- just had my 4000mile oil change a few weeks ago. Even with summer tires and the car rack, the car is great! I can pack stuff in the back and drive the thing every days without needing a massage every evening, and while it's not a lexus it's reasonably quiet, almost too quiet. I do wish we had the Recaro seats though- I'd like to be a bit more snug in them. tom Replies to this message: ateixeira (Jun 18, 2009 10:04 am) tsy (Jun 18, 2009 11:19 am) ateixeira (Jun 19, 2009 10:38 am)
