• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Need help with buying questions.

    :agree: Extended warrenty is definitely suggested as these "new" high tech machine requires a lot more TLC. Unlike Hondas and Toyotas which are good until 6 digits miles.

    Took your advice and looked on forum for used Spyder...more advice needed :)

    I think sticking to within a couple of hundred miles is a smart move. If you want a "great" deal, you must be patient. I waited over a year before I found mine.

    2011 RS 91 octane?

    :agree: Octane is about burn rate and detonation, not price. Performance degradation comes from the ping detector telling the ECM to advance the timing thus not being as efficent resulting in some power loss. Air / Fuel mix determine how rich it runs. Lean mix burns hotter. My Miata SC is...

    Ethanol and Power

    How do you find one of these ethanol free station? Do they advertise it? IS the gas more expensive than other station's to make up for the difference? I winterize with race gas plus stablizer which is additive free so it has a less of a chance to gum up things.

    Gasoline's gallons

    Ummmmm .... the water just "feel" a lot colder in the winter. Bet if you test the tap near the inlet .... it be the same. But if the pipe runs off the outside wall and gets effected by the exterior temp, then all bets are off.
