Mazdaspeed shocks/struts and springs orderd today. I'll have them on Saturday!

I also ordered some oil cooler screens that I need to put on. After looking at my oil coolers, I'm amazed my car hasn't blown up! There's no way those things are working worth a damn right now.

I think there was something else I ordered, but I don't really remember at this point. I got kind of "credit card happy" Sunday afternoon.

 

Holy cow, looks like everyone in DFW is ordering springs/structs/sways...!

What screens did you order? I was thinkin about doing the DIY screens like steve has, cuse I bet my coolers are just as bad if not worse than yours.

 

Nice, you and Joe with the MS Shocks/springs Combo... nice...

Thomas just order the Racing Beat Oil cooler&A/C screens

 

OFFICAL MOD INSTALL IS GOING TO BE 4/10/10 MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!! LETS GET DIRTY!!!

Ill offer my house but I dont have many tools to work with as far as installs go... Anyone wanta volunteer their house? It would greatly be apprecaited...

 

Here's the ones I ordered:

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna paint them black before I put them on, but that's what I got.

 

Won't be there...gotta wedding in Corpus to go to. Sorry...

 

I have a used set of RB oil cooler screens in storage. I removed them when I got my bumper. Had to remove the rubber around the coolers for fit. I'll try and find them.

 

Sorry to hear that Wish I would of known or gotten more feedback from people...

So houses anyone? Im not sure if Jew would let us borrow his house, maybe Steve's house? Im not volunteering anyone, just looking at places that previous install party's have occurred.

Like I said My house is totally game if y'all want to bring tools and jacks/jack stands... Karim has Ryno Ramps so I could borrow those... but yeah, let me know... Im going to make an official thread soon, so let me know where you guys want to have it...

 

My guess is Scott's Parents house if that would be cool with him. Steve's house is being rented out atm. I dont have tools etc either.

 

The link Warner posted was only 24 bucks, plus you live in Tulsa, and I want to install them before the meet. How much did you want for yours and shipping? I'd also want to paint them black... OHHH or maybe chrome to match my other bumper piece that I havent had on in forever.... choices... choices....

 

Dude, you are always going to weddings...

 

I dont have Scotts number so you send me a text and ask and see if he minds.

Like I said I totally dont mind my house but I dont have much many tools and my driveway isnt the flatest... but Im totally down, Ill wait until tomorrow to start a thread with the location to wait and hear who can loan out their houses... Heck maybe Joe will let us use his house... his house seems to have alot of flat land...

 

You guys are always welcome here. My driveway is partially sloped though, depending on who's doing what that may not be an issue. You can always jack cars up in the garage. I'm not exactly centrally located either, but like I said, y'all are welcome to have it here.

 

Alight well ill wait until tomorrow to post, but I may try and set up a Poll (if i know how) and see where we want this to go down, Joe's house or my house... by all means post here to save me from trying to figure out how to post a poll... Where do y'all want to go? Let me know...

 

Either place is ok with me. If y'all decide to come out to the house, I'll provide lunch.

 

Alright guys the OFFICAL install party is scheduled... https://www.rx8club.com/gulf-rx-8-forum-32/offical-dfw-install-party-4-10-10-a-193793/

Sign up guys, lets have some fun!!!

 

Debating about upgrading brake pads, brake lines and fluids before the meet...

 

Wont be there for the meet but I bought new brake rotors from RotorPros and I'm currently waiting on my Eibach Lowering Springs to come in the mail.....should be here sometime this week....then I'll be getting the Racing Beat Rev8 exhaust then some new rims......i also might switch my K&N v2 intake for a Racing Beat REVi intake as well.....lol

 

Sways are installed and Tires are on. Getting alligned on Mon. Then waterpump on Tues. Will do the brake fluid later in the week.

 

Installed the screens you gave me today, spray painted them metalic silver color, they look awesome! Cant tell they were ever hit by a coyote lol. (though my front bumper is so dirty it looks like maybe it was haha!)



On a side note, also did the Trans and Dif fluid today and plan on getting an oil change and 2 new rear tires on the 16th.

Edit (added a picture)

 

Just to make sure, I assume we are still having the 4/10 install party no?

 

Yes. Or I've spent a lot of money on Dr. Pepper & food for nothing.

 

Sweet, alright making sure

 

Glad they worked out for you. They look good. They were really shiny like that when I first got them But after 2 years of road debris and coyotes, they looked pretty rough.

 

Water pump is now in. All that's left is an oil change before I leave. Mod list complete, for now. Should have my tune from MM soon.
