Oregon Rx-7 Owners
 
Where are all the portland people at?

Derekcat 09-30-07 04:32 PM

Usually... Lurking, hiding, waiting....

The RPNW meet at Round Table Pizza is coming up real soon though.. Wednesday@the round table on Capital highway [Can't quite remember the exit number.. but if you're heading south it's a little ways out from downtown on the capital highway exit ^_-]

If you search a little, I think Blake's post has a map to it.

Other than the RPNW meeting.. the Portland area is pretty disjointed.

ProjectKyo 09-30-07 07:14 PM

Aw man, I'm not sure if I can make it to the meet. But I would like to see a bigger community in oregon.

ProjectKyo 09-30-07 07:23 PM

well anyways I'll start it off =] I'm usually around around the SE 82nd area and I go to PSU. I drive a NA 86 base model (see signature pic). Postponing S5 turbo motor swap until spring/summer... or whenever it gets warm again.

Josh18_2k 09-30-07 10:54 PM

Im in gresham. if you've seen my car im sure you'd know it. its a candy cane :-)

ProjectKyo 09-30-07 11:35 PM

haha I know you. You used to work at Performance Warehouse. You quit a little bit after I started.

CYD 10-01-07 09:33 PM

I am in Hillsboro...if you traffic Baseline or Cornell you'll spot my Red Hoopty.

ProjectKyo 10-01-07 10:11 PM

Josh18_2k 10-02-07 03:46 PM

The Spyder 10-02-07 04:10 PM

We hide and come to track days ;)

MWMburton 10-02-07 10:27 PM

hide. . . mhmmmm. im pretty sure theres just a lack of portland area enthusiasts is all. im in beaverton and have tried to get meets together around town but much to my dismay only one or two at best. most that have ever been gotten together besides an rpnw meet is like 3 lol.

you work a PW? i work at baxter, do you work will call or what?

red hoopty, gotta be more specific than that. after all it is hillsboro and there are many hoopty's

kapn krunch 10-05-07 09:16 PM

im over on the north side of portland and worked at performance warehouse also i saw josh's car there a few times after ian pointed it out in the lot. i worked at pw until agust so chances are i know most of the ex pw employees in this thread.

MWMburton 10-05-07 11:03 PM

i quit becasue they treat everyone like shit there i was like the 5th most senior employee there most people had only been there for 3 or less months, where id been there for a 1.5years. they wanted us all to work 12 hour shifts everyday and do 20 diffrent jobs but wouldnt pay anyone more then 10$ an hour for it. so most people found higher paying jobs at nike's warehouse. and most of the people from the portland warehouse bailed when they moved to hillsboro.

I quit when they moved to hillsboro. It was really fun near the end of the move because there was nothing to do and we were still required to show up. Weekends were the best. Pallet jack races and drifting FTW. I miss those times, best job ever.

When I first started at pdub I got a ride, but I started driving my rx-7 after about 3 weeks after. I think i started driving it after you left or my schedule was totally different from yours.

Qhasan31 10-07-07 09:23 PM

Well I'm in the SE Area around 82nd, I own a black 87 TII, I'm apart of a group call Gripswing! You normally will see me on i205, i84 and highway 26 because I work at Nike.

MWMburton 10-08-07 01:00 AM

im at the beaverton store, u'll see my fb.

yah i figured the warehouse was in pretty bad shape cuz no one was happy about all those idiot kids zeroing parts after lookin for 30 seconds. no joke some guy zeroed a part cuz he couldnt reach it and he couldnt opperate the forklift. yah when i went to the portland anex there were like 3 ppl there it was ridiculous.

lol and when they want you to work those 12 hr. shifts and you do and you get all that overtime they yell at you then right? lol its fricken ridic

Seth W 10-08-07 01:26 AM

SE portland. I own a gutted white MR2 with gold gab sports, and my brother has a black 93 Rx7 with gold gram lights. We should be out to more of the track days this coming year.

Derekcat 10-08-07 01:02 PM

Well I've got a couple 87's..
the Super Base [profile pict], and a GXL. [gunmetal]

both down at the moment.. [water seals on the base, rear diffmount/DEQ on the GXL]

I'm down in Tualatin, but I work at the Mac Shop in Lake Oswego [whatever one you might be thinking of you're probably wrong ^_-]

I've been wanting to get out to meets more often but it usually doesn't work out [and it doesn't help that now both FCs are down.. ]

i was at my wits end with the pullers i was the inventory guy that had to look for all the zeroed parts i would get 130+pages of zeroed parts everymorning that i had to go look for and 99% of them where right flipping there where they should of been. it because robert l wont fire pullers for not doing there job. and most of the large parts in area 7 get zeroed becasue people are to lazy to get on a manlift and get them down. almost everyone there was lift certified.

LMAO i was probably one of those 3 ppl that you saw. I was a scanner but I worked as puller when they were short handed. I never zeroed unless I knew it wasn't there. Spent 10 minutes finding every other part lol. I never got overtime pay it was bs or even holiday pay, they said part time doesn't get holiday pay. Oh well doesn't matter I messed around a lot during weekends so it makes it up i guess.
