Shenandoah is about an hour from Omaha. You could goto any of those shops really. All are OK. Some probably more than others. I meant charge ya in general.

I would be down to help. I have a garage full of tools. The guy that uses it is a small engine repair guy. Just give me some heads up as to when so I can make sure I am off. Never worked on a RX-8 or even my P5 for that matter. Would be fun. I wish I could put my springs on but I am afraid since my car has so many miles, I can see running into problems and be stuck with half the suspension off my car.

If ya come down, maybe we can make it an MWM day and have as many people that want to come down and help, then we can BBQ at my place, and cruise main street which is really small. If ya want to you can call me. Pm me and I will give ya the number.

Well if I was able to do suspension work on my old maxima in my parents driveway outside with my collection of hand tools (and a rented pair of spring compressors from autozone), anyone should be able to


Actually I don't know how hard coilovers are, but I can't imagine they'd generally be much more difficult than macpherson springs and struts. Though I imagine there's no haynes manual out for the RX-8 yet like I had for my maxima (I'm pretty sure there's an FSM though).

I'll check/keep an eye on the calendar for the drive events. Even if I'm not a full-fledged member, if I partook and there was club cash involved at any point, I'd pitch in.
