Saturdays In Raleigh, Nc
Who else is coming tonight?
I don't plan on staying out late, so if y'all had plans for later in the evening, you could just come hang out for a little while. Plus it's really cold today, and it's supposed to frickin snow tomorrow afternoon.
Is it spring yet??

Check your coolant mixture (as I will also) to make sure you have a good mix.
then that means my car's engine is probably fine!!! 
Gonna do the LSD swap... and install a new or rebuilt tranny. I think alot of the mechanical defects are due to worn out 20 year old parts!

Hey Stina, you think you could bring that compression tester to the meet next Saturday? I wouldn't mind seeing what kind of numbers I'm getting on the 7, but I don't actually care enough to buy my own tester.
DAMN. I would have bought that rotary miata if I'd of seen it earlier. Im going to be in Florida this weekend for the Daytona 24 and could pick it up.

Hey Greg, are you planning on being at the RRDI meet this Saturday or the MSCCNC meet for February?
...I want to take a ride in a car that has KYB AGX's installed in them. I'm trying to decide what shocks to buy.

OK stinky 7s. I need help. My clutch is slipping and I'm confused as to which set I should get:

I see there are ones for the turbo, but what's up with the convertible one?

Well, I might not be driving the FD up this weekend. The bolt that engages the master cylinder behind the clutch pedal, yeah that snapped in half and the pedal went all the way to the floor. Oh yeah, that was in traffic waiting for a light too, so I got to be a huge roadblock for about 5 minutes until by the grace of God I got it into first and gunned it into a parking lot. THEN, when I started the car up so Victor's wife could tow me home, it sounded like an ATV again, so I'm guessing stuck seal once again, to which GoodfellaFD3s (Rich Farrell) gave me some good advice on how to get it unstuck.
She was really good at towing me home too...makes me wonder if she's done this before
Although she did tell me when she got there that I reminded her of her husband, standing next to an RX-7 on the side of the road. I'm still trying to figure that one out

^That sux Eric! I might still be making it up this weekend but I may have to leave Keri at home cuz if my income tax return comes in by then I'll be bringing home my new body kit home Sat. night!
