Headed to Mid-Ohio this afternoon to watch Team Sahlen test the RX-8's, these guys are getting ready for next year. Should be a lot of fun, hopefully they have the Speed 3 there as well. They will be installing the TWM replacement shifter kit, along with the a new shifter knob on Friday.

A good friend of mine was with Team Sahlen in the pits as part of a job interview. He's looking to get a full time position with the team, which would be awesome, in my opinion.

I received a counteroffer for $200. Not sure if I should try and meet @ $190.

.
What did you end up doing? i haven't got a counter offer or acceptence back yet.

Think i'm gonna go the cheap route and just replace the one bad strut (tokico blue). Thought about doing illumina's upfront but just don't want to spend the money

I really dig the CF roof spoiler, Steve, I seriously love your car. I'm going to make sweet, sweet love to it next weekend when you're not looking.

My Illuminas will likely be up for sale @ the end of this winter. Just fyi.

And here's some more pics of the roof spoiler & vinyl.

no new fenders for monkeyass

 

[PrinceValorum]

Was it your decision or the deal fell through?

 

[thejeans]

shipping was almost as much as the fenders... made a good deal to a not so good deal

Hey Nate... keep in mind that you get what you pay for when it comes to those coliovers. They're pretty much shiite. Good for slammed crowd only. Illuminas are expensive because they're worth it. Minimum quality I'd go with on the P5 for coilovers is BC's. K-sports blow, and anything below them are just even worse.

Just a heads up.

My BC's give me a good drop but ride is not very comfy, performance is OK but can be a lot better (this is based on having driven cars with H&S and KW). I kind of regret it, would have gone for KW or the custom setup from Tri-Point. Tri-Point's is exp though, over 2k BUT it's GOOD STUFF! - this is in my wish list now

 

[ucMP3]

KW ftw!

JIC's are also a good one to go after... but definitely costly.

Anyone have experience with AWR?

What in particular? I have the 21.5mm rear sway bar and endlinks, and have contacted them a few times.

 

[rally2003]

I too have their rear sway bar formy MSP. Do they sell a replacement oring kit for the endlink bushings that are massive or is there an alternative. Also has anyone purchased their adj. coilovers andcompared them to BC or KW

 

[rally2003]

Wow this new setupfor this site is really f'ing up.

 

[rally2003]

For the last 2 days it has been duplicating some messagesand not showing other. WTF?

 

[Lewis7789]

Yeah, this site got very retarded. But you can always delete your double posts. Not sure why no one is...?

 

[THE Phen]

Best bet is to give them a call. Tony's a pretty straight shooter when it comes to replacement parts for things he makes. I had to order a new standoff block for the rear subframe as I snapped a bolt off inside of mine.
