Where to get Greddy in Vegas...

Ok, I am finally have what i exhaust i want figured out, the Greddy SP2. The problem is, I looked on their website and they dont list any Greddy dealers in the state of Nevada. I will not go out of state to get it done because i have no time for that between going to school and working, it's not gonna happen. So i was wondering if there is a place i can go where they can order it and install it for me. If they can't order it thats cool because i will just get it off RX-8 Store and they could send it to me, then i would take it to the place for them to install it.

I need help QUICK!!

Jason can have it shipped to any location as long as you paid for it, and his mark-up will be alot less than a shop's. I don't see an issue here. Why do you need it so quickly? Why can't you do it yourself in 1/2 an hour with jackstands?

It's not that i need it right now....but i WANT it right now. Wait, you think it only takes 30 min. to install an exhaust? Dude! I'm only 17 and although i do have some skills, with this car i am a little timid in attacking an exhaust job, i want to make sure everything is PERFECT. Thanks, i will order it from RX-8 Store then...but do you have any suggestions as to where i can get it installed?

Can't help you with a place for the install but I would lobby for a Vegas area meet and have an "install" meet to help you out. Do it yourself.

Well nevermind then, I'm not much of a "club guy". And the scene here in Vegas is kinda dead anyway. You guys are real helpful.

It's easy Doug. Two bolts at the cat(14 or 15mm likely). You'll need a helper and a socket set w/extensions. Hopefully not a breaker bar to "crack" the stock nuts after lubing. Wiggling the brackets off the rubber hangars is the toughest part. I used WD-40. It's slimy, but they popped right off(Too lazy to go get dish-soap). I'll be in Vegas next week(10/4-7). PM me if you get the exhaust and need help. After daily seminars I wouldnt mind getting a little dirty, and beats feeding the one-armed and blackjack bandits.

Ah, i wish i could take you up on that offer, but i'll be in San Diego. That's ok though, i feel i can definitely do it myself its just that i'm a little scared....I guess i shouldn't be. Would it be bad to start it and drive around the neighborhood with no exhaust on? JK
