Once and a while I try to get everyone together for a little BBQ/cruise, however sunday nights seem pretty dead (I know Im scared to go out) and the weather has been so shitty this year that nothing has really been planned yet.
I also know quite a few of our cars are still on jackstands, so thats another factor!

You on winnipegheights? Thats usually the first place I will post about meets, but I try to cross reference em in here too!

I am gonna try to work on a lil BBQ or something here soon!
I will let you guys know!

I'm looking at replacing the Clutch. What's everyone recommend? I have a Centerforce II clutch kit in right now. It's lived out it's use - 25 years old. Starting to slip really bad. Definitely need to replace it. The engine has been modified with a 13 B 6-street ported in Alberta mated with a Mikuni twin 44mm carb along with lots of other goodies. Love driving it and terrorizing 'stangs. Not the fastest out there but for owning this car for 29 years, (yep, the original owner), it is absolutely wonderful to drive.
I would really like to find a clutch kit here locally. Can someone suggest a place and a clutch kit make? Thanks.

Awesome. My car is still at the shop waiting for new ring and pinion and an LSD rebuild. I am getting quite upset with the shop as it is taking way too long.

I completely forgot and apparently so did everyone else! I am surprised no one else posted it in here.

MAZDA MEET ON SUNDAY APRIL 22ND!

This was posted on WinnipegHeights. It will be at the Assiniboine park (zoo) parking lot. Unfortunately Heights is not loading for me right now so I cannot access the thread, but as soon as I can I will post it in here. I believe it is around 4. I hope some of you can make it out!

Here it is: http://www.winnipegheights.com/showt...siniboine-park

I am not sure if you can access it or not so I will post the start of the thread.

First Mazda meet of 2012: April 22, 4PM at Assiniboine park

Sunday, April 22nd at 4PM
at the zoo parking lot inside Assiniboine park: we will be meeting for the first Mazda meet of 2012.

This is not just your standard Mazda meet, but also a farewell party for AverageJoe as he is making a big move to Calgary on the 25th.



The plan is to hang around at the park for a couple hours, have a little photoshoot, then out for a nice cruise and possibly some food and drink to cap off the night.


Lets hope for a great turnout and one awesome final adventure with Joe before he skips town.

Even if you dont own or drive a mazda, feel free to come out! (just dont make fun of our rotaries, haha)



See you all on the 22nd!

Post a pic when you get the body kit done up. I'm curious how it turns out.
I got a set of mats from JasonS last year too. They are quite nice, mine look better than stock.
