Ebay is pretty decent sometimes, just bought 2 blue-ray disc movies for about 18 bucks. Love the 1080p High Def stuff.

I have a extra set.. Dont bother with the "help" ones because the spring is too soft.

Petey I may be hitting you up over the weekend my friend. I would like to see if Brian can find his and whether or not he's willing to part with them. I think he's a little closer to me than you.

I wouldn't bother with the hardware store, its mitsu or nothing.

If you know the length of the bolts and thread (I think it's an M10X1.25 but I could be wrong) you can try mcmaster-carr. They have a huge hardware inventory and quick shipping. The Mitsu stuff is designed to fit but guaranteed to rust quickly and it's generally low grade steel.

On a side note I met Peter Tiebout today on a quick run to grab coffee. Damn insomnia is killing me. Sorry I had to rush out of there, I don't think I even said my name is Josh.

so i don't know how many of you have been reading about the X's issues. apparently there has been an issue tuning them because they start running too lean thanks to a failing fuel pump relay.

i recently switched the relay with the highbeam relay and my high beams stayed on one night and wouldn't turn off until i pulled the relay out.

today i got a different relay that i ordered from mitsu and put it in and turns out that everything runs a whole lot better. acceleration is much more aggressive and it doesn't feel like it is pulling timing when i put my foot into it. good thing i've been driving my car easily because it just hasn't felt right lately because i think my relay crapped out a while ago.

You know what would make it run even better... a proper tune! Have you scheduled plans for one yet? Thats kind of scary though, you don't need that thing runnin lean.

It's an M10X1.25 but unfortunately it doesn't look like they have that type of spring tensioned bolt.
Dan, have you found a place to tune it yet? I remember you were having difficulty finding someone to work with the AP.

I was sad when I saw you resheduled it for the 12th. Bad day for me, I would like to go even though its in Jersey (can't stand jersey) just to help support you. I have my wife's grandmothers 75th b-day party in the afternoon (1pm) and my company xmas party that night at (6pm). There's no way I can squeeze it in, sorry brother.

I just looked in the garage and I do have them . You can have them if you want. I threw out my stock exhaust so I have no need for them.
