Let me know how the autocross goes. I have been wanting to go to one for some time now.

Did you all talk about meeting every other month after I left? Is that still a go?

Well feel free to come out and watch me humiliate myself. Yeah I think the bi-monthly meet thing is a go. It'd give more people the opportunity to get in on such things. Oh... I forgot to mention, I saw a maroon SA22C leaving Walmart last night. Anyone know of it?

Here's my pictures... if anyone wants a full res copy let me know.

No problem. I got another one at a diagonal from the turbo side if you want it.

Yes...nice meeting all of you, bi-monthly sounds great. Me and that VW cruised together all the way back to Maryville. Would've been really cool if that was a group of FCs snaking through the interstate. I plan on going to that AutoX next Sun in Oak Ridge too. Great pics by the way. later.

Woooo, I'm already excited about the next meet. I'm gonna try to bring my little Cheeto out this time. I've got the title to it now! As soon as my Supra sells, it's getting registered. And I'm getting desperate so the Supra is up for $1500 now if anyone wants a Mk III N/A for cheap.

If any one knows of someone looking to trade a busa or newer liter bike for a good looking FC let me know ZX12s are fine as well.

I don't want to sale it. I am just saying if someone offers me a bike I like for it. I would most likely take the trade.

By the way....what do you guys think for my NA....picked em up for 120 shipped.

These are a pair of 16x8 and pair of 16x7(ones not pictured) of mid 80's Mitsubishi Starion rims. Apparently the 7's will fit the back fine, which if its like the 18x7.5 ADR's on the TII then theyll go up front without a hitch, but the 8's sound like i might need to roll the fender a bit.

I'd sport those... they'd look really good powdercoated. Think they're lighter than stock rims? The only thing I'd be worried about is understeer with a staggered setup like that. My TII is already really bad about pushing the front wheels.

Yeah I was thinking about polishing the lips real well and getting the centers done too. However upon further fitment attempts im going to need a 1inch spacer up front and longer wheel studs, as well as a widebody kit...but eh all in the name of a project car. I had planned a small widebody anyway so it just flows with the plan better.

That sucks that you have to run spacers. I'll probably do the widebody thing eventually too. I'm waiting for someone to make some stock looking widebody fenders. The FC3S.org ones are nice but I don't like the vent behind the wheelwell that much.

just a spacer up front...which will put them out as wide as the rears. And thanks for the link Adam, however I think ill be going with the raceonusa or corksport kit for my widebody adventure.

Sweet! Those are nice... pricey but nice. I wonder if anyone makes a replica?

I still hate the idea of spacers... I can feel the unsprung weight and added rotational mass... yeah I'm a bit crazy about such things.
