The weather is looking pretty good this coming weekend for some wrenchin', including oil change, filter cleaning, new springs and my new Rotas.
Quick heads up for those that have Advance Auto Parts in their area: Seafoam is on sale this month for only $6.99. Not too shabby at all.

the amount i did complete last night would have gone a lot smoother had i done a bit more searching on here first as to where to run the wire through the firewall...

I'm flying into Boston this week. Anybody local willing to do a pickup? I have transportation from the airport but it is crazy expensive.

Ordered the fender roller tool from SU today for only $55 great deal, and I'm getting my tires put on as we speak.
Same here supposed to be in the low 70's saturday. Plans are to roll the fenders, put on springs, and pop on the new wheels. I can't wait.

well i think i finally solved all my issues,.
- coolant flushed, new coolant refilled to full after a little driving
- no oil leaks since spin on conversion install
- pwr steering leak, confirmed by my mechanic as coming from the feed hose to the reservoir, i double clamped that spot, so far no more leaks
- had massive brake chatter after accident, just got rotors resurfaced due to slight warping... perfectly smooth braking again
- rotated tires, was way overdue... she is getting real close to 60k mark, sitting pretty at roughly ~59500 miles. eek!
All in all, she is driving beautifully again, just PURRRSS on the yummy Royal Purple. I had never seen this oil, it is ACTUALLY purple! haha. matches mah car
and im starting to save again for coilovers & wheels. hopefully it wont go towards repairs again. Recent photo shoot, pics still be processed, will post soon.
cheers

^I too am hovering right below 60K. Just got the car back from the shop (AWD is useless on ice) with a new rear bumper. Summer wheels (RX-8s) and new front rotors tomorrow. Thinking about painting the stockers graphite.

Hey, at least you got something free from the stealership!
Helllllllo cheap tires, lol.
One more of the rear with a lil bit of neg. camber. And oh, hello gay MS6 exhaust tip(yupnope).
Suspension is also adjusted so now the car has a slightly new height and some new tires that are a BIT taller and a BIT wider. Will have side shots and more pics soon
