Everyone that comes would need to bring something.... sodas, chips, hotdogs, hamburgers, fajitas, chicken, or whatever just don't show up empty handed.
Guacamole, Salsa, Chips???? Saturday should be fine...

You can't only the dealer has the tools. There is a thread somewhere where a member bought a salvaged, flooded RX8 and he documents his rebuild. He ended up having to have it towed to the dealer to get the security system reprogrammed.

Just bought it. It doesn't say it works with the '09 so we'll see.

$15.50 for shipping

It was for sale here but the guy selling didn't have a rating so people were cautious. I talked to him for a while, made him take pics, checked his ebay rating and then paid via paypal. I took a risk so we will see. although, he seems like a good guy and sent me the tracking number right away and it is in Mesquite, Texas already so hopefully it arrives as described.

This is a CP racing strut bar. Apparently they went under before selling many, so it is pretty rare.

No man, I just got it today. I am going to touch it up and then try to install. Looks legit and well made. There is some pop corn splatter from the weld job and it has some rough surfaces but nothing a dremel and spray paint can't handle.

I will keep you posted though.

If I was you I would check fitment then paint it... you might have to make some minor adjustments... i tried to install mine once and i needed to make the holes just a little bit bigger and I haven't tried again since...
