Thread: Parts are on their way

  1. #1

    Default Parts are on their way

    I just got shipping confirmation on my Shock tower adaptors for the rear, new Link chip, and Intake temp sensor

    Then I found out what my IRS bill was Then wished I hadn't ordered the new toys and tires at the same time... Oh well who needs a vacation this year

    Anyway, I'm going to need a spring compressor to do the shock tower. Anyone willing to share when I get the energy to do it?

    Vatozone typically has spring compressors for rental. If you can return them without breaking them, then they end up being free.

    What is a Vacation?
    Seriously I hear people talk about them all the time.
    I have never seen a mountain, or the ocean and I am 37.
    I guess I would rather allocate my cash on whatever holds my interest at the moment. :) ...I guess that being the Miata right now.

    Since I am a musician I take vacation that way too, whatever I do I wrap myself up in it so tight that I guess I am on vacation, but only in my mind..imagining all the possibilities.

    Just think of all the fun you will have when you get the new toys on and are tooling down the road for the first time.

    You are welcome to borrow my spring compresser. It's the cheap Harbor Freight version, but they work OK.

    My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.

    So, how did the installation go? Did the shock towers solve the problem?

    Yep, they did. Car rides great. Thanks again for loaning me you spring compressors. I'll hook up with you this week to return them.
