• 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.

    BRP Oil

    I'am sure this has been discussed before, but I haven’t been able to find anything on this new site. My question is: What kind of oil are you using if you don’t use BRP oil? I have a SE5 so I need the synthetic oil. It just isn’t always convenient to run to the dealer to get a quart of oil. My...

    Front Wheels 14” or 15” or 16”

    I have been looking online to try and find some new front wheels for my 2010 RS (other than BRP wheels). I originally started looking for the stock size 14” (3 lug), but can’t seem to find any. Three lug wheels are hard to find. There are some Smart Car wheels with three lug but they usually...

    What brand of oil do you use?

    It is about time for my 6000 mile oil change, and I was thinking about ordering a filter from BajaRon. For my 3000 mile oil change I went to the dealer for the oil and filter. But it would be nice if I didn’t have to go to the dealer every time I needed oil. It’s not that far, it is just out...

    Front Fuse Box Question.

    I am looking to hook up my GPS and I’m not planning on hooking up a lot or other electrical equipment, so I don’t need to get an extra fuse box like the PC-8 from Eastern Beaver ( which I was considering ). The front fuse box ( RS ) has a place for two accessories fuses, one switch (F3) and...

    Lost license plate light/ reflector = new mod

    On our trip to the coast Labor Day weekend I lost my license plate light/ reflector. I was kind of surprised because just the liens was gone not the whole light. The screw was still in the light. Any way I had been thinking about replacing the reflector with a tail light anyway. I just wasn’t...

    Hot Foot

    We went to the coast this weekend , about a 300 mile round trip. First time I drove more than 100 miles at one time. The weather was nice about 75 on the coast. When we came back to the valley it was a lot warmer in the middle 90’s. Any way, when ever I was traveling at slow speed my right foot...

    3K Check Up

    I just called my dealer to make an appointment for my 3K check/ oil change ( Elk Grove Motor Sports ). They quoted me $289.00:yikes:. That seems a little steep. Is this about normal?

    Corbinized

    We took our 2010 RS to Corbin and had a new seat, hard bags and a trunk installed. :2thumbs: It really changes the looks. We met Mike Corbin while we were there. Had a good trip. Here is a video I threw together ( nothing fancy ) of before and after.

    Electric Trunk Release

    I have been reading the different threads about the Electric Trunk Release mod. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12808&highlight=trunk+release I find it very irritating to have to turn the engine off in order to open the trunk after you have started it up. I was wondering...

    Low MPH??

    Low MPG?? I purchased my 2010 RS on 7/08/2010. Rode it home about 120 miles. When I filled up I got 24.5 mpg which is about what I expected. My next two fill up were 15.8 mpg and 18.3 mpg :yikes:. It has been very cold blooded in the AM when I start it up. Sometimes it seems to be running on...
