Checked out Harbor Freight this morning for that jack Oleg had, 80 bucks plus 10 to ship.

Defintely looking at getting one.
 
Maybe shipping is less if you order two--one for Mark :)

Save 8 bucks.

Adjusted the passenger side front and rear springs, lower the front 1/8 inch and the back 1/4 in. Too cold to crawl underneath and adjust the rear dampers, do that another day.

Cleaned the new/old wheels and they are ready to get the new tires installed. Hope to do that tomorrow and then get it to Apex for corner balancing and a wheel align.

Love the stance right now. Will see if that changes with the wheel align. Right now with me in the car. from the road to top of the wheel opening is 24 and 7/8's all around.
 
Seriously thinking about it. Will let you know.

What did the family decide about the trip?
okay! ya, not decided 100% but it looks like we won't be going...oct. is the rescheduled date for the gun shoot. are you going to the 27th meet?
 
pics from yesterday

the last one is the money shot!

Hahaha, is that last pic me? Sorry for the delay posting here, didn't get home until today (went to a friend's). Thanks again for the help guys! Also, thanks for the hospitality Mark!

Bruce, your car came out great, looks, drives, and sounds excellent!

Oleg, thanks for the ride, makes me love RX-8's even more! haha

Great little meet :)

Got the summer rims ready to go. Had them mounted today and I put them on tonight. Some quick pics, old and new.

Not sure if still like the rims but will have to do for at least this year. Felt good to be back on summers. No squishy sidewall.

Getting the alignment and corner balancing done tomorrow.
