Welcome to the area. Nashville has a pretty good rotary presence as well so you'll feel right at home in TN. What in particular are you studying at NADC?

 

I'm taking the collision repair and refinishing program. It's a13 month course

 

Cool deal, always money in paint and body. I painted my first gen last year in my driveway. Don't recommend that... make good use of their facilities in those 13 months

 

I sure hope so lol. Seeings how i can't wash my car or change the oil out in front of my dorm (which i think is the biggest load of horseshit I've heard in my life). But I guess it's for the best though. My first day is August 17th so I plan on offficially living there around the 15th at the latest. Hope to see some of you guys while I'm in town.

 

Nashville is about 3 hours from Knoxville, so I doubt you'll see my RX out that way But I'm sure you'll see some of the Nashville/Murphreesboro rotaries on occasion. They have some really nice cars.

 

Jeez I need to check in here more often.

Jimi~ you made a front page on killboy recently. The cheeto looks pretty good in it.

Chris~ Bout time you got back into a FB, hope it doesnt get hit by no trucks this time or burns to the ground >.>

Hmm...need to go peddle some wares sometime this week.

 

I'm sure if there's a big enough meet going down I'll go to knoxville. I'll be driving past on the interstate anyway haha.

 

Thanks for the heads up Derrick, I forgot to look! Donnie was there too in the 10AE. We ran with the Knoxville Car Enthusiast crew. I need to find out when that group is running up there again. Lotta nice cars and good drivers.

Plain white, if you wanna hit the Dragon one weekend this fall let us know. We could get a group together.

 

I've never been to the dragon. Read about it in Super Street. Sounds nice, we should do that one weekend.

 

ok so heads up~ If anyone with an FC needs some suspension bits shoot me a pm. Box of coilovers just arrived finally and i wont have an fc for much longer (i hope)

 

Yep got me an 85 base. Has racing beat intake and full header and exhaust. Holley 650 carb. Also got another rearend with rear disc setup and a set of tokico blues and racing beat springs to put on.

 

Awesome! That's a big *** carb... is it a stock port motor? I think I'm gonna put on some RB springs soon too, along with some camber plates. Not sure about shocks yet. I'm still on the stock suspension for now. Understeer city with the race rubber.

So you gonna bring it out to Chilhowee Park this weekend?

 

wow didn't know there was a east tn rotary club. I go to knox about once a month and havent seen any rx7s

 

That's because they're all apart in a garage somewhere. Occasionally I'll see one around town, usually an FC vert or a first gen. We used to have regular meets and stuff, but most guys either sold or blew up their cars. Mine still sees the road quite a bit.

 

Theres still several around here (smyrna). Next time i go up there guess ill have to keep my eye out. im usually out by the zoo/rutledge pike exit

 

The only time I go out that way is to raid Pull-a-Part. Although there's an autocross there this weekend.

 

Its the stock 12a. Id say the car is too loud to autocross. Jeremy got his se running. Maybe well all cruise or something. I'm at home bored right now

 

Im picking up an FB tomorrow thank god. Finally sold the rx8. Im part of the KCE we do a triweekly dragon run if anyone wants to show up .

 

Haha, guess he couldn't stay out of the rotary game for long. It's an addiction. And no, you're not too loud to autocross. You haven't heard the Cheeto lately. Racing Beat header collected into a single 2.5" magnaflow, which then dumps out of a 2.5" sidepipe in front of the passenger rear wheel. They ran sound today... I passed the mic twice per lap with my pipe facing it and they didn't have a problem.

Hey cool, I'll probably see you at one of the KCE runs. I don't know if I'll do the next one because there's an autocross on the same weekend. What kinda FB you getting?

 

Its an FB with a s5 t2 swap. It just needs an ecu and a spring on one of the seals in the rear rotor. 900 bucks so yea

 

Update!!! I leave 4 am sunday morning to move to nashville. So I'm really looking forward to some meets and maybe a trip or two to deals gap, NC.

That is all

 

Sounds familiar, I hope it still doesn't have my stock wheels on it I was supposed to get those back!


Cool, good luck with the move and all and be sure and wave if you pass through Knoxville

 

Will do. But if you keep a keen eye one the interstate, you might see me.

 

Well I've successfully lived in TN for a little more than a week now. Now it's time for me to look into getting a job to pass time.

 

Welcome to TN! A week? You haven't even had time to write a country song about how your wife took half of your doublewide in the divorce.

Where you thinking about working?
