^do you do the install yourself? Might be worth waiting a little if not. Unless the $160-$200 for springs + $300 install is a drop in the bucket for you, in which case I'm always looking for a sponsor!

I will be completing all the installs myself most likely. I am just unsure if I want to do just springs or a coil over setup. I have the money for springs right now and could probably swing a tein basic set in the near future, but the idea of the higher end sets also kind of influence me. I am gonna have to look into a little more I suppose.

I just took it for a 1,000 km round trip...and it loved it. The fuel range it handed back was great as well....

Mine got a Mazdaspeed front bumper. It's the first in Stormy Blue I've ever seen. Internet comes up with nothing.

but this is one of the few cars that HUGS BACK so you're all set. That was always one of my favorite commercials for the RX-8.

An LED third brake light and two weeks off thanks to the worst winter storm in 40 years. I keep making excuses to go hang out in the garage... "I know I checked the oil two days ago and haven't driven it... but I better go check it again" LOL
