I have some ratchets/ratcheting wrenches/breaker bar and other random things I can bring. I also have two jack stands.

In terms of food. I can bring drinks and snacks.

Who is bringing the chicken?
Foodtown grocery stores has the chicken leg quarters for 39 cents/lb from Today till next Tuesday. So if a few of you bring a bag or two?

If the weather is not too cold ( 50s and above) I will be there.
Hey, what can I say, I live in South Texas not in Chicago.
Will bring two 10 lb bags of chicken leg quarters.

Will try to see what MODS I can get done.
Have.
1 shocks,
2 springs,
3 those speed thingys to flush the brakes and clutch,
4 footwell lights
5 puddle lights
6 angel eyes
7 rotors,
8 grounding kit
9 de badge
10 ceramic pads,
11 paint calibers and install RX-8 Decal,

MODS wanted ( anyone selling?)
Dual resonated AP Midpipe

1. Catless mid pipe
2. SR Motorsports air intake polished cnc
3. Strakes
4. Side vents
5. petite radio ****
6. tow hitch

8. Front grill mesh
9. Cortex generator rear top aeros
10. Led light bulbs all around
11. Ipod / aux / mp3 input

Well, how about the footwell and puddle lights?

Number 7 was that gf mod but think I do not need that one yet!

that's a lot of work for just one afternoon, swapping the suspension alone takes around 4-5 hours.

1 10lb bag of chicken should work.

and myrador as for your mod list:
footwells and puddlelights arent hard. puddle lights took me 1hr45mins and footwells should take like 15minutes.

also i have an ipod dock im selling, ill show it to you if you come. the ipod mounts into the din.

Were you trying to squeeze the clamps by hand or with pliers?

Hmm...I'll show you which one it is then. I don't remember having trouble picking the right thing of wires, I just remember having trouble squeezing the vampire clips tight enough to get a connection.
