better question, how much was left to do when everyone else bailed? lol

Scott, i realized when i left that after all that, i never saw the HT. haha. I had alot of fun. good man for hosting this thing scott. We'll have to try to diagnose this noise of yours sometime. I'll look for any TSBs at work tomorrow about rear suspension noise. Also, another idea i have, when i installed my new springs, i noticed on the old rear springs, the top coil was actually cutting into the one bellow it a bit from resting/moving on it over bumps. I did hear a noise only over severe bumps that im sure was caused by this. its really hard to see the top coil on the rear of these cars, but most aftermarket springs seem to come with a rubber cover over the last 1.5-2.5 turns/coils maybe that has fallen off or something....im really gasping at straws here. lol.

Neo, it was nice actually meeting you man. at the fall cruise last year i didnt have a chance to talk to you at all.

Hey Guys, thanks for all coming out. I've never seen my street look so awaeome -- lined with RX8's Love the community spirit of our 8 club, we're off to a great start to this season.

Sorry I didn't do a better job of feeding you. At least i kept you hydtrated

Thumper - great to the see those CR-KAI's on your car with the skirts, looks awesome. Thanks very much for help with the shifter, works much better now.

DarkBrew - Thanks for the tunes and your help with the shift boot.

Neo (Pimping Hard Supervisor), Pros (Brown Guy) and Greg (Grasshopper) - Super HUGE thanks for staying until 3:45 am to finish of the install of the MS front!!! OMG, Mazda should be shot for what they put us through lat night installing those friggin fog lights LOL. Kit looks awesome

Rev: Thanks for hopping from car to car, helping everyone is sight

Al: So great that you showed up to give us more of that wisdom of yours

Neo: No more suggestions to my wife about what mods she needs for her MX5, modding one car is expensive enough

Next weekend, going to get Pros front end on!

It was great meeting you. You're well on your way apprentice!

Thunder!

The MacDaddy!!! You're pimpin so hard!
Gotta love that Theatre!!!

Pros,

Thanks a million for the lights again. But I hope you got my message. let me know how it goes. No worries, I've got to pay you for everything still!! I'll be placing the order for the springs too.

The Rest of You,

Great to see everyone again. It was a great day. Too bad some of you had to leave early, but we understand.

Anyone got any pics??

I think I'll be hosting one soon since I've yet to get the FD on the road.

We'll hopefully get everyone together soon.
