Nice, I see a couple pros that weren't at MOTM. Too bad I don't live closer, I would have come to that. I can't take off work this month because it is the end of the fiscal year.

Car is in the shop :D

Expect pics later!

_Kansei_ September-19th-2007 02:25 PM

Suspension work? or did you spin a rod bearing or somethin? lol

JoshP5 September-19th-2007 02:33 PM

Wheelgapectomy?

J-Protege September-19th-2007 03:01 PM

I should have specified, haha. It's at the body shop!

Getting my skirts all done up and painted :D

Suspension recently got slowed down, as the endlink set I was planning on buying has been given a "no expected due date, check back in the spring" response. :(

I guess that removes Hardrace from my suspension build for endlinks. I don't want chatty AWRs, so I guess I'll be going with MazdaSpeed.
Unless there's something better?

What's wrong w/ the Mazdaspeed ones?

JoshP5 September-19th-2007 03:11 PM

OEM's fine. :bt:

J-Protege September-19th-2007 03:12 PM

I heard they don't last very long. Doesn't Chris replace his OEM endlinks every few months from breaking?

aMaff September-19th-2007 03:21 PM

how do you break your endlinks? Unless you're trying to remove them and they break... I had OEM P5 links since I got the car, and mazdaspeed for a few months now (since the rear sway). No issues at all.

J-Protege September-19th-2007 04:16 PM

Yeh, same here, still have stockers. I've never had one break, just word of mouth I guess.

I thought it was because of a heavier/stiffer bar, it would put more force on the links.
I may be completely wrong, I was just hoping to save money with the GB on Hardrace, haha!
