It might take a month or two, but I'm completely determined too get in on this...

Took some close up shots of the individual components showing off some quality German engineering; just look at the input shaft diameter upgrade (I’ve never seen input shafts this thick, and the metal/plastic hybrid lower helper spring perch (presumably to save weight).
Dan and Feras are Paid soon as your check clears i'll be ordering your stuff, probably Wed.
1. Dannobre - Paid
2. MazdaspeedFeras- Paid

Just as an added point; several of you that are local to me have PM'd me if I could install these for you and save the typical $400-500 dollar installation fee for those that are not mechanically inclined.
If that’s the case, I don't have an issue with doing the install for you, and would just ask for some small pittance in exchange; one sway bar, or a set of AWR endlinks, car parts are perfered but a nice bottle of red wine (I like mid to very sweet reds; melots, barbarossas, cabernet franc/sauvignon, or even semillons) I'm also trying to broaden my fine scotch/bourbon horizons.

Dan and Feras your stuff is ordered and processing, soon as i have tracking numbers i will give them to you. My set came out of California lets hope yours do as well that way you won't have to wait as long on the international shipping.
kick ***, btw if i don't have you install the coilovers would you still be able to fabricate those adjustor cables for the rears? (i dont know if i want to wait for ya to get back to put the coilovers on...too excited)

hey the only thing diff about the flexes to me is the efdc that comes with it for 350 more than the price tag so its like a 1850 price for a bit of laziness and a decent suspesion. hey polak how do i pay for this since im in the dersert right now.? any cheap ideas.

By the desert do you mean Iraq/Middle East?
Since Muslims don't believe in borrowing money, i.e. there aren't many banks, and western union probably isn't too profitable of a business, just mail me a personal check.

Goodnews, the coupler for the Tokico adjustment cable works without issue.
Next good news the inexpensive motors I sourced are powerful enough to torque the adjustment **** without issue, Pictures below.

Yup.

I'll ask if you can go higher then OEM, but it probably wouldn't be advised.
