Nice idea. We should all get together and make a online version evey month

 

damn dont have pwr point.....can someone transfer it 2 somethin else?

 

Here it is in jpg format:

I could store it on my server .. I'm getting pretty damn good with asp so ! ... Editors could have their own sections with usernames and passwords and all I would just need somebody to give me sections and stuff, to figure out how to organise it, and I could code some asp page that generates something cool

Gimme a buzz if your interested

 

that is what i was thinking...get a few of the techies like mantis carl and sterling to answer a few decent e-mails every month...i like the power point format cuz you can flip through pages like a papre magazine...

by the way thats my stripped doen baby in the photo...just waking up from her winter hibernation.

here is an image so you dont have to do the link thing...but the link is a better pic.

 

not bad for a cover.....it's 'mint' how bout subjects what do u have in that department?

 

you mean me personally? I just have a love for the cars, and the knowledge that comes from owning RX-7s for 7 years of my life.

I read an RX-tuner pre release copy and has to flip through most of it because i just dont care all that much about FCs or FDs...I dont own one...i did have an FD for a while and loved it, but i dont have one any more...and i dont really like the rice attitude that comes with them.

for future articles i was considering some topics we brush by on here...like aerodynamic packages...wheels...TII swaps...turbocharging/supercharging the 12A...suspension...rack and pinnion conversions...and of course have featured cars...

any who thats my idea...i welcome others.

 

This is a fantastic idea! We definately need something that concentrates on the first gen. Too many magazines out there that include something (though be it minimal) on the first gen have way too much rice in them.

 

Dude, I want more pics of that SCCA car!

 

if you need some "mid-process" pics of a 12a getting turbo charged i'm your man. i am now breaking everything down and putting the turbo pieces on. i'll take pics of the process and will devote them to the article if you want! i can help write if you would like. i'm all for this! WOOOHOOOO!

FB II if you could.....would you make a write up on what you have done? It wouldnt have to be huge or anything...or good, just something i can make into an article.

 

It's gonna be sweet if you create this mag, rx tuner just isn't doing it for me

 

I'm more of a PHP/MySQL guy (a damn good one too, if I do say...), but I'd be happy to lend my abilities giving The_Dude a hand... Or for that matter, I'd gladly lend my time anywhere with an endeavor like this

 

nice, me thinks its coming together. all of this feedback and responce rules. thanks guys...keep it up!

 

yes, i'll do a little write-up to go with the pics. WOOHOOO!

 

My only question is, with it being strictly an online mag, how is it really going to be different than the pics and info we can find here, other than perhaps better organization? Especially considering it's going to be all of the same people contributing the articles.

I love the idea, don't get me wrong, just not sure it'd present any real benfit to the group.

It's not so much an alternative to this group...why do i have a closet full of porsche mags when i could go to a forum like this one...its always neat to see pics and read articles by people who are doing the same thing as you. Plus i would only like this to be an online mag forever...i hope if intrest is high enough to eventually go into print.

 

I think you can do more with the mag than on here. Less Q&A and more one persons story, or tech article on a specific topic. But I do think it will need good organizational skills to keep it going on a good track. I'll help out anyway I can.

BTW, linkie no workie. And ditch that heavy *** PVC! Get some thinwall black plastic gutter pipe.

 

Is that what it was?? I thought he just dropped a Big Gulp cup on it.

 

It's geocities, for some reason they don't allow remote linking. You have to cut and paste the link into your browser instead or you can right-click on it and save-as (save target as) so you can just save the file directly to your hard drive.

 

Ah, thanks! But its just the one page so far right?

 

Yup, looks like just the cover.

BTW Leif, I forgot to mention there seems to be a pretty good gathering of IT-7 drivers here at Gateway International. Next race is in July, I could probably get a couple of interviews, pics, etc.

 

nice, that would be great...im going canoeing for the weekend, but please keep the discourse up guys...
