thank you, was not looking to see about lower. my suspension in back is sagging and hers was about where i thought mine should be i figured if that one was stock then my rear springs/shocks are toast.

Whats up fellas ! My best friend has a shop in Manchester NH and he is looking for a mechanic or a mechanics assistant to work with him there. He has been pretty busy at the shop and finding a good responsible person has been a little bit hard. He works on all cars but is a ROTARYHEAD ! Great Guy too. If any of you guys are looking for work or know someone responsible please holla at me and i will get you in contact with him.

Possible RX8 Owner needing help

I am currently thinking about selling my S2000 and possibly hopping into an RX8. Problem is, there aren't any for sale in my area and I would like to just sit in one and possibly get driven in one so I see what it is like. Therefore, I am hopping that some generous owner would be willing to meet me somewhere to show me his RX8 and talk about it.

My commute is along I93, from exit 1 to exit 22, and would be willing to meet anyone. Any time after 5 along that stretch. Live on the border of Ma and NH.

Reason for selling the S2000 is because I want to get out on a track and would need to extensively modify the S2000 to make it safe. Roll bar, lower seats (being 6'2")...... So here I am.

Another question: Knowing I want to track it, is the extra money for the R3 worth it or rather get a touring series 2 RX8 and motify as needed?

I'm a bit far to meet up, but one thing about height : I'm 6'1 and with thr helmet on I just clear the sunroof, and even then, it takes some playing with the seat. So if your goal is track, at 6'2 I would say trims with sunroof are out. When you testdrive, bring your helmet.

About R3 vs touring, any mods you do will affect your class, so if you're in it to compete, I feel you're better off with a stock R3 than a modified touring.
