RX8 Mini Project

WE3RX7 · 04-12-2010, 08:36 PM

So the cast came off but the arm is still pretty useless, lol... In true fashion to other forum members, I am pushing a bunch of crap at the last minute before DGRR.

On saturday I managed to get an oil change, installed a 2007 starter (holy crap what a HUGE difference) and my AP mid pipe. Sounds simple, but that took all day really. The starter wasnt a big deal, but my lovely northern car under body and lack of strength in my left arm resulted in extra hours getting the midpipe on. My buddy came to the rescue with an o2 wrench set and a swivel sockets. The exhaust studs were so rotted on it even broke a snap on impact socket...

I ended running out and getting new grade 8 hardware which soaked up more time out of the day.

I'll get some pics up shortly...
