I just talked to another new owner that will be picking up his 8 sometime this week. Turnout this time should be great if they come out.

Here is a interest thread. Throw your opinions in there!

What bumper are you getting & is it already painted/fitted?
You should definitely get that checked before other things go wrong!

Hey guys, I have only had my 8 for about 2 months now and the addiction is more intense than I could imagine. What a sweet car. Anyway, I'm hoping I can get some help from local Houston members with a few items:
1.) I want to do a compression test. I want to install NOS but need to check engine health. Anyone know how to do this?
2.) Anyone installed nitrous before?
3.) How can I adjust my camber? I am told you can do this with stock camber arms (I have Tanabe springs)
4.) I have a lip kit being shipped to me and need it painted. I read someone here does paint. I would love a quote.
I pay in beer and food and am willing to turn a wrench for anyone else that needs a hand (obviously I will pay money for paint). I'm not terribly savvy mechanically but I do any work on my own that I can. I plan to do the NOS by myself (yikes).

I'm back from my hiatus.
I just got my plugs and BHR coils and wires so I hope to get this project installed in a month. Gotta fix my other car first.
I'm a newb so I've been researching on installing the BHR. I have a decent idea but the getting the new bracket in sounds tricky.
If anyone is interested feel free to join in and learn with me!

^ I'm going to bump this request.
Time is very limited for me; I'd be willing to pay someone for their time, garage, tools; of course I'd help. I love to learn but I don't have much free time to tinker and problem solve.
Request: : I need help installing BHR coils/wire and change plugs. Involves mounting the bracket, I have no clue.
Let me know, I'm thinking of somewhere like $10 an hour.
Please email me @ integra.thanh@gmail.com
