Got a couple more pics here...
1. I had to take a pic of Josh's car in my garage, I may be able to lie to some people and tell them I have 2 FDs, haha.
2. One of the new lower pieces for my coilovers, looks like a pillowball bushing, and much better than the old red two-piece.
3. A comparison side by side shows there may be an issue with the new one, if I can ever get the old one off (I already bent one of the adjustment wrenches trying to get it off).
4. A pic from the last meet, just too ironic.

Hey all, just wanted to through this out there...I was thinking of planning a trip to the NC zoo in May. Anyone interested? If we can get a group of 15 together we get a dollar off each admission and a one free admission per group registration. Just a thought, maybe a good road trip for us too.

In tough situations you tend to look for support anywhere you can get it.

Hey Nic, that would have been funny, haha. I thought it was funny too that some of our hoods were up, haha. It was just hilarious that guy pulled in after we got there, HAHAHA.
I'll be damned if it didn't switch my photos...1 is 2 and 2 is 1.
The zoo sounds like an awesome time if I can get the car fixed by then.

^Yeah, no kidding! You asked earlier about the fender damage...it's not too bad. I notice it but once I get the new hinges it should look much better. Now let's hope those don't cost me fortune!

Well that's good it's not too bad then. I wonder if insurance would cover that. That would be like an environmental hazard right? Like SATE training, HAHAHA.
I like that we can see who's on the thread too, has that function always been there? Never noticed if it was.

Holy crap, I'm tired. I feel like someone beat the everloving crap out of me.
I've spent the weekend installing the new suspension in the Miata. It's actually a pretty easy install (easier than the RX7) but naturally I ran into snags. Like, the spring compressor breaking and trying to kill my girlfriend for one thing.
At least I'm becoming a better mechanic. It took me 4 hours to remove the first shock, 2 minutes to remove the last one. Now I just have to wait for the suspension to settle so I can get it aligned. It's raised so high it looks like a monster truck right now.
Illumina shocks FTW!

BAH! The cats overwhelmed my post. No one wants to do a pre-DGRR meet/mod day and assist my *** in installing a new header/presilencer then making fun of my welding skills as I vainly attempt to make a rigged up cat back to hook up to said exhaust?!
