The one in NC is $250 and the one in AZ is $225 shipped.
OK then, I'm convinced, I must become the elite of the elite!
you will never be done. unless you plan on making it a trailer queen. i just realized my hood needs to be painted. it is starting to get that same look as yours. i was kinda hoping to be able to hold off until project: TWINS was done, but some of us keep blowing money on maintenance (not calling out any names, but the initials are E.R.I.C) hahahaahaha
not to mention, the roll cage, sway bars, and headers (similar to a downpipe for you rotary people ) I want to put in this summer. When you think you are done, you will just have more stuff to buy. When all that is done, and project: twins is complete. I will want new wheels, something with a deep lip in the back.
Joey, I agree with only one project car, but just make sure you stick with the one you love the most. that way when she is sucking your bank account dry it won't hurt as much.

I agree with Josh on choosing the right car so it won't hurt as much, haha. Probably why I'm not putting money into the Prelude anymore.

LOL... Greg's not stuck up... you just don't have boobies. 
+1!!! Our springs will be here tomorrow for the FB! I'm SO psyched!!!!!!!
We should all get together and discuss a weekend later this year that we could all go as just the RRDI.

I can do exhaust any time this coming weekend. fri, sat, even sunday, thoguh i have to work sunday night, so id prefer NOT to do it then
Saturday would be best. The reason I havent done it at my apartment is because the apartment complex is kind of iffy about letting me do any work around here.
Phil, my apartment complex is real nice with the exception of the working on cars thing. Its right by the RBC center off wade ave near 40 and 440.

yea you will need a helmet, and you get an instructor. i could be wrong though, wouldnt be the first time.
Eric, There is a local place that makes custom roll cages for $650ish. All the local guys go to them, track and drag guys. My biggest thing is noggin clearance. I don't want to brain myself while not wearing a helmet, and even worse not be able to fit in with a helmet. The car is almost 14 years old, it is time to tighten her up.

Are you guys interested in going to the 7-7-07 barbeque down in Savannah, GA? There should be a decent turnout this year. Check the SE section for updates. It's still in the planning mode right now... but we are coming together if you guys want to join the fun!!

I'm down for 777, I thought we were having something in Apex though?
Anyone interested in these? I'm thinking about it...

^^^i dunno. i was thinking maybe something that came forward, not just a 4point. depending on what they think they could do. the ones that fit the 7, the cross bar is too far forward. sat in a car with the kirk bar, and when i adjusted the seat for my height, my head was like 2 inches from the bar....not good.
i havent talked to them about specifics yet, but 650 is cheaper than you can buy a kirk or anything else.

I'm down with going to down to the 7-7-07 thing. Since they are so close, I'd be afraid that if we do our own thing it might fragment us, some would go there, some would stay here.
Even if by then I am piston-exclusive.
By the way, Stina and David, the Illumina shocks are AWESOME.

I tagged a FB today. It was at a library that I happened to turn around in while trying to find the DMV. License renewal: done.
edit: By tag I meant put a paper on the windshield with this thread specified.

With black face and polished lip. I want to see if they can make them in 10" or 10.5" for the rear though. Those TSWs are nice too though. I like the 003 and the 962 as well, but the 003 is listed only up to 7.5" width and I really like the mesh design of 006. I'd take any of the three though.
Gimme a call Josh.
