Exclamation RX-8 Tech Day Sunday May 7, 2006

TIME CHANGE FROM 10AM TO 11:30AM!

Hey Guys:


I know this is kinda of a last minute thing but I am opening up my house and garage to folks who need to work on their 8's. I would like to install my puddle lights, rear oem wing, and some led's. A fellow friend has to adjust his coilover's on his 8.


I have a 3 stall garage, some tools, jack, jack stands, creeper, etc. If you have something to work on/install/repair, please bring it over and talk with some fellow 8 lovers to help you out. The only thing I ask if you are doing any type of fluid change/check I ask that what ever fluids you come with, you also take home with you. I have a new garage floor and plan to keep it that way for some time. I'll have plenty of cardboard to lay down in case of accidents. If you have tools, bring 'em!


If you are interested in attending this event over my home in Goffstown, NH, please drop me an email and I will send you directions. Planning on starting around 11:30am and will go to when ever everyone is finished. Folks can pitch in and we could order pizza or subs for lunch.


Hope to see many folks this Sunday.

Sorry guys, I'd love to join in, that is a bit too last minute!! Too bad you couldn't do it the 14th or 21st.

Anyway, I'm not going to be able to make it Sunday. I'm off to Loudon on Monday 5:45am and need rest & quality time w/the car for prep beforehand... Ooohmmmmmmmmmmm

Get RPIRX-8 but back together again so he can come out and play perhaps on the 30th !

Sorry guys. I have to work Sat. night/Su. morning 7pm - 7am and then go back Sun. night / 7pm. So I spend most of the day Sun. sleeping, about 4-5 hours. I would have loved to make it, I have a parking brake and a few other things to install. Might have the dealer do the brake.

Question

Tech day went well yesterday. We installed a set of puddle lights on my 8 and worked on adjusting RPIRX-8's coilover's.

Started around 12noon and was done about 7:30pm or so.

RPIRX-8, how's the ride feel now that you adjusted your coilover's?
