Can't make the morning of April 5th. A friend of a friend wants to lay down some trumpet/trombone/sax licks on a CD his recording so I'll be in the studio. Never professionally recorded myself so it should be a fun experience. Depending on when we finish, I might be able to stop by late afternoon.
 
haha. most important things for a spring cleaning meet at mark's house:

spring compressors
oleg's detailing kit
someone to hold umbrella
 
Let me guess, Marc convinced you Oleg? Hehe. Easier on the lift?
Yeah. It is easier on the lift, but not *that* much easier. The wall-mounted spring compressor does save time, once we figured out how to best use it. Ran into issues with my rear camber bolts, one of my camber adjustment cams is stripped (the little notch got damaged). That's OK, I have replacement ones at my house (for when I needed to do the front).

Otherwise, everything seems OK. My rear toe is whack, need an alignment. Will post pics later, once things settle a bit.
 
My coilovers might be in by then. Oleg, you had a shortcut we used on yours last year for the rears? do you remember? Do we need a sprig compressor or does someone have one? I can bring the impact gun.

I can bring the spring compressors, local Autozone rents 'em for free... I have an impact gun as well, i can bring that, but if you're bringing yours, we don't need to...

the shortcut is to unbolt the swaybar rather than undo the endlinks.. i don't know if you had anything else in mind...

Yes please for the spring compressor, not the impact, I will bring mine. UPS said the coilovers will be here on Thursday. Hoping to get them installed at Mark's.

I assume the install will be similar to the RX8?

Josh, looking forward to seeing the rims.
