Hey Iowa
 
Think it's time for another meeting soon.

Prolly last one of year but we should have had time to fix our cars so no excusses this time :)

I'll bring the FD this time.

Throw out some times/suggestions and send link to fellow Iowan rx7 owners.

Ice_Wolf 08-25-06 03:12 PM

Well, anytime really works for me, just have to request it off at work. :)

Syonyk 08-25-06 03:13 PM

Sept 23rd is bad for me, other than that... let me know.

-=Russ=-

E Dogg 08-25-06 04:15 PM

IanS 08-25-06 04:49 PM

Sundays are best for me.

Sesshoumaru 08-25-06 05:43 PM

Sunday in Sept-

15/16th I have Drill so those won't work for me.

Location? Same place?

IanS 08-26-06 06:36 AM

Which same place? In DM or CR?

rotor88 08-26-06 03:52 PM

I am going to try and make this one.

Jesse

Sesshoumaru 08-26-06 08:46 PM

Cast votes i guess-

I vote CR

and for the 9th or 30th of Sept.

9th is pretty soon so depends on if ppl can get enough reaction time.

IanS 08-27-06 07:08 AM

I vote 30th in CR. Nothing much different for my car except I have a white hood now. Not sure if it was on there last time or not.

c_mart_28 08-27-06 09:42 PM

Hey,
My cousin (nate) is going to try to go to Eddyville this friday (sept 1st) to run his mustang. I dunno, I might see how slow the new TII is if I can get out of work early. Even though its only 1/8th mile it's still a good temp check on the ol' FD Jason...

driftfc87 08-27-06 09:52 PM

i'd be down for the 30th i have wedding to go to on the 9th

ill be bringing the talon if its still running im headed up to cordova next friday to find out how well all my new parts on it work

jason you should head down next friday and run the fd it could probly win it in the import class

Sesshoumaru 08-28-06 12:12 PM

I've been meaning to put the 1 bar spring in but been busy with casey's car.

It's mostly done except for wiring the haltech. Perhaps I can get it running by Friday too.

I would like to dyno the FD also. Maybe come down early Friday then hit the track after the dyno.

The car will be done by the 30th for sure.... might be a good time to pick it up.....

Ice_Wolf 08-28-06 10:31 PM

I'm down for whenever basically, so any dates work good for me.

Hey Jason, you should bring the FD to Cordova this Friday so I can see it. :drool:

Sesshoumaru 08-31-06 12:00 AM

Well I worked hard and got casey's engine rebuilt, turbo installed, and haltech.

Got it running tonight. Running very good and idles at 800rpm with no problem and no smoke.

The problem is that his haltech is broken and I was using mine.

See attached link >.>

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...05#post6042005

This means tomorrow I'll move his car out after I finish some minor details then roll the FD in for that 1 bar sping.

RX7_2ner 09-02-06 05:08 AM

i might actually go to this.


somebody find me a tii shell, plz.

Sesshoumaru 09-02-06 01:45 PM

Well took the FD down to cardova

Got a 12.88 with 2.02 60ft and 110mph trap. Was able to squeze out import runner up and 50 bucks :)

I think Casey's car based off what my FD ran should be able to hit low 12's high 11's once we get it back up and running. Even with blow turbo it was faster than my FD.

Had a fun night. Was happy with how the car performed. Had no problems with it after about 8 or so runs Eric and I made.

RX 4 Speed 09-02-06 02:41 PM

hey guys... I am down for meeting in CR. Would have been nice to have it this weekend. It's gorgeous out. Saturdays or Sundays are good for me. It will be a good homework break for me. Just let me know when.

driftfc87 09-02-06 04:14 PM

im glad you and E decided to come out it was a good night for the most part

im down for the 30th and i think brian will go also i might have the talon up there we'll see brian's tii should be up there also

ill probly bring burgers again so if we start a list again put me down for that

Ice_Wolf 09-02-06 11:48 PM

So that was your guy's best time? That's awesome! Glad to hear you got runner up too and made some bones. I wish I could have stayed for Midnight Mayhem, but my buddies wanted to head home early. Hopefully next time I go down there I'll have something nice to run. Hopefully it'll be a nice turbo FC. :)

Sesshoumaru 09-03-06 12:53 AM

Great night tonight work'n on casey's car.

Solved some tigger issues on the CAS and got it running good (had some spikes on the haltech). Feels very strong but also makes me realize how civil my FD is compared to the War Lord.

Not sure if any tracks are open yet but would be nice to take his car out this year for a run.

Tomorrow once I fix the speedo cable it'll be time to boost and get a street tune (lol ftw 50miles on this rebuild :)).

That was our fastest time (my last run). If i work on my launch and get another 1.8 60ft time it should lower my ET a bit.

Honestly that is about where this car sits- High 12's. I dont' really plan on try'n to improve the speed. If I get some dyno time I might squeze out a bit more hp but 1 bar is comfort zone for me.

Ice_Wolf 09-03-06 07:48 AM

So, when do I get to buy that FC then Jason? :)

vipergts_3 09-04-06 03:18 AM

i would love to go to this , where/when exactly would everyone be meeting ?

illinois dyno is pretty reasonable with there dyno prices i think it's 85 for a hour on the dyno and you can usually make about 3-5 runs if you want the number let me know the guys there are really cool too

Sesshoumaru 09-04-06 05:20 PM

Well Sunday 30th - 12ish - Ellis Park in Cedar Rapids.

Sesshoumaru 09-04-06 05:21 PM

We talked about it briefly but never decieded anything.

Guess u could give him a call?

Cool-

Next time I head down to cardova I'd like to go there before the track.

Sesshoumaru 09-04-06 05:33 PM

Dropped casey's car off yesterday while it was raining............

Today I got a taste of 12psi though.

It's pretty scary. Motor had about 200miles on it and felt low 12's easily imo with some tires. I bet it's the fastest rotary In the state.

I'd like to see deep 11's with some more boost and traction.

I really don't need to make my FD fast when I can play with casey's FC LOL

I think it can get 400rwhp+ with out too much work.

rotor88 09-04-06 07:52 PM

Next time you are at Cordova shoot me an email or a PM. Great times by the way!!!

Jesse

IanS 09-04-06 08:05 PM

I called IL dyno and I gave prices on one of the last threads. I was thinking they said 110 for an hour.

Sesshoumaru 09-04-06 09:59 PM

LOL hell ya. Cardova is a blast. I think I'll hit the drags more often from now on.

I'd like to go up against your beast :)

your running low 12's aren't you?

E Dogg 09-05-06 08:45 AM

About the meet, i was thinking i could host it at out at my House if that woudl work out better...

Thoughts anyone?

c_mart_28 09-05-06 10:35 AM

The 30th should be alright. Should have the Haltech back by then (hope,hope..) I'll still probably be rolling the 225's out back however. Oh well, its kinda cool having no traction until 100+....

E Dogg 09-05-06 11:06 AM

just trailer your car down and swap haltechs back and forth with jason if its not back by then;)

IanS 09-10-06 12:48 AM

Update??? WTF is going on people?

Stix37867 09-10-06 01:37 AM

Just tell me when and where and i'll be there...

I left Eric alone for a few hours today and he decieded to paint his car.

Afterwards he decieded on this new look.

- I think he inhaled too much paint fumes.

E Dogg 09-10-06 07:36 PM

that is not true....


I Primered my car not painted it.

Sesshoumaru 09-10-06 10:39 PM
