Who says we aren't preparing for the state meet? Maybe we're preparing for the ultimate showdown!! :ylsuper:

But to your point.... I did order new GREEN Led's for my puddle lights today - FTMFW.

Also, my Lebren rear accent light should be here early next week. Not that any of y'all will ever see it considering I'm always bringing up the rear!! LOL

Anyone interested in buying a Racing Beat front sway bar for the state meet? Definitely give you better handling on all of those corners.

Ordered my Mazdaspeed Strut/shocks set today.. Should have them by Wednesday.

renesisjim 03-12-2010 10:47 PM

I got my new plugs and BHR ignition in. Midpipe should be here tomorrow, then I'm getting a MM tune since waterpump is backordered. I also powdercoated my strakes black.

Damn, I wish I knew you were in the market for a clean WB. I'm 100% stock, minus the redline tranny and diff fluids. and i've only got 25k on the clock. Looks just like my car.

Oh well, we'll be twins! congrats on the purchase, they are beautiful cars even against new rides of today.

i doubt i'll come out to the meet (no time) but i love that you're reppin rotary. keep it up.

I would prefer the 17th. But I know some mods require that you have time to break them in. I need some time to order stuff for the meet and that should be enough. I for sure cant do the 27th as I have to do some stuff at church and my family is going to be in town that weekend as well.

seatownracer 03-18-2010 11:42 AM

What are you getting for done before the meet Thomas?

-picking up my sways tomorrow and have ordered my redline fluids.

I need to order fluids, and then I'd also like to get some protection for the condensor and radiator built (screens) I'd like to try and prevent a repeat of busting a condensor from last year.

renesisjim 03-18-2010 10:42 PM

Put in my midpipe today. Into the shop monday for clutch, flywheel, thermastat and fuel pump. I ordered my Hotchkis sways from MVP, should be here next week. I also submitted datalogs to MM for first round of tuning. Tires and brake fluid switch to super blue to go.

Lord ET 03-19-2010 10:05 AM

my list keeps growing! Picking up some plugs today after work. gas mileage is down to 240-250mi/tank from ~280mi/tank.

Lord ET 03-19-2010 10:22 PM

New plugs in; surprise mod (painted my fender vents black and some alum. strakes to match); re-cleared the headlights

I only get that kind of mileage on the hwy. In town 200-220 max. I'm averaging 15 mpg. Maybe it's the lack of 93 octane in OK. I would love to see at least 20. Lol

On a better note tires ordered nitto 555 255/35 and hid's.

WTBRotary! 03-20-2010 07:38 PM

Alright guys im gonna post a Offical DFW install thread soon with a saturday date unless someone gives me more info on who is open on which days... it has to be a weekend..

JoeHawk 03-20-2010 08:25 PM

Cool. Anytime but the weekend of 4/24 works for me.

seatownracer 03-21-2010 06:37 PM

What about next weekend? I need to install my sways......I am also really thinking about picking up those mazdaspeed struts and shocks......
