Finally put my KYB AGX struts and Racing Beat springs on the car. It rides so much different. It actually bounces like it should! Corners like a dream. Just need sway bars, strut tower braces, and the tranny replaced and I am good to go for auto-x! The good thing is that I can do all the work at work with a lift!

Nice work Zach, I should do some suspension things to the Silver One. I've always relied on the original stock suspension for my 84/85 GSLs, seems to work fine but who knows what I'm missing?
Thanks for the clarification on when the world ends Tim, that means we can party right on up to 6 pm, should be plenty of time.

Secondaries are hooked up, turned that commuter car into a sports car. Whoot!
If we get past Saturday I'll start to look into suspension upgrades.

Now that is something I can get behind. Plus I think Armegeddon takes the weekends off so that guy is waaay off.

Shoot, who needs to wait for retirement?
The Second Coming of the 12A will occur within the next five years and all non-believers will be eaten by Rotary Zombies.

All good reasons for him to buy my FB. It has the RE- Speed bushing kit already installed. Grab the shocks and springs and you are set. Killer deal will be made to a senior OGTA member.

It's tempting Dave, problem is I have a shed full of 84/85 GSL parts, most of which won't swap into Project Fireball. I'm heavily invested in 84/85 GSL's.
Mike, Gene, new shocks and springs sound like a great upgrade for sure, but you know us Yankees. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
The suspension on the Silver One should be fine for another 100,000 miles, at least until she turns 30 in 2015.
So I have another 4 years to score some good tokicos on a low ball ebay bid.
That is, if the earth doesn't start shaking tomorrow at 6:00 pm.

That would be terrific, I've never seen a Daytona Blue SA before. In the mean time do you have any teaser pics? (We need to do something to get this thread back on topic).
Looking forward to meeting you and the car!

I'm there for the Friday Hunan Mike and what you have captured is a photo of a horse's ***:
Looks like something you'd find in Brett's backyard. (Brett, think Gatorade).
Check out this article that was in our Sunday paper, looks like those Miata guys are going nuts. We could add some FB's to the mix to reset the standard, don't you think?
