Does anyone have a set of front struts for an 8 laying around? Both of mine are going bad and i was hoping to get em on before the snow melts, dont really matter how many miles are on em as long as they will work for this summer. Thanks!

LOL I asked this question several months ago. seems like you're going to have to go my way and either deal with them, or spend the money to ship up used ones.

I'm there about every other month for a week or two. Next trip will be in April. I've seen an X there once... dunno if he's on here.

Are you driving?! Beluga Lake is a blast in the Evo! They have a simple circle track cleared on the ice, or you can forage your own path if you don't mind replacing front end trim.

there's no way you're pushing 25psi on this **** 90 octane safely.

Drop it down to 18/19...and even then you might not be safe.

Anyone interested in a brand new RRE Stealth exhaust? Have one coming up but won't be needing it apparently. I'll let it go for 600 since thats what it cost to build it. I'll be taking the hit on shipping. Just let me know guys. Its stainless steel and powder coated black as well.
