Nice store! I need to get motivated and have you tune my FD before your rent goes up.

Hey Ralph have you guys had time to unpack and sort all your parts boxes? You said awhile ago that you had a powersteering pulley for my FD.

BTW, the shop looks awesome! One of these days, I'm going come up there and check it out. CJ

For those that want to visit GroundZero and learn something at the same time, Ralph and I agreed to hold an RPNW.ORG Tech Session at Ground Zero on Saturday, May 19th. At the tech session, Ralph will give us a tour, show us some projects and talk about tuning. He may put something interesting on the dyno. They have not one but two 700hp FDs and Ralph can tell you about some of the tuning challenges and why not to let your son drive your car.

The tech day? Ralph told me he was too busy, so RPNW replaced the event with a Swap Meet at Pineapple Racing the same day (May 19th). We now have an open date in August, so perhaps we can reschedule for then?

Hello,

Yup the tech day Thanks for the update, we (my cousin and I) were looking forward to the tech day, and also to check out the new(er) Groundzero location. I just found the link to the Swap Meet at Pineapple: https://www.rx7club.com/nw-rx-7-forum-33/2nd-annual-rpnw-swap-meet-%40pineapple-racing-5-19-07-a-649172/

As my interests seem to be moving towards the RX-8, I don't think there is much I'd be able to buy/barter for? It seems most modifications except FI, don't do much for the 8, heh. Unless you know of some 'go fast' parts that are not popularly mentioned already on RX8club?

BTW, your affiliates/companies comes up with some pretty good stuff for the RX-7 and is well known for rebuilds (I got my FD a Pineapple rebuild as well!), is there any inclination to build an RX-8 header? The current offerings are either Ebay's OBX which doesn't seem very well made and perhaps even loses HP, or a few from Japan which are > $1000.00 and unkown or little known about their performance.

Nonetheless I'll check back on the swap meet link, maybe something will surface

Goodbye!
Edgardo
