Hahaha...Will do!

What are your plans for yours??

For me, I just want an AP, TBE, TIP, motor mounts and then suspension mods. Maybe a 1" drop all around, Koni Sports, JBR rear sway bar, and some bracing bars. Ohh and some better tires, my all seasons suck. Lol

AP is definitely next after I get my internals. Are you military as well?

I could only imagine how scary fast one could build these MS3's with a giant turbo lol!

I think I'd probably kill myself if I went that route. I've always been a fan of road courses and touge etc. Plus I can already destroy the gf's rx8 in the straight so I need to be able to beat her in the turns too lol.

I am already open in Denver and tend to give Mazda Club folk pretty good deals ;)

Be careful with internals on the fuel pump. Some people have no issues, others are cursed to have bad luck with them. Having installed both internals and the CPE pumps on a few different cars, I would definitely recommend the CPE pump over internals. If you do get the internals go with the "better" track record ones.

EDIT- I have not owned a street driven Mazda for several years, but I do have a few Mazda Race cars and have been on TV...

Where's your shop at?? I've been looking for a shop with someone knowledgable about the rx8's as they seem few and far between.
