Haha....figures you would say that. As for me, right now I'm going to have to say that I'm not sure I can make it. I just swore into the Air Force and am waiting for a job and ship out date and they can call me up any time with one of those. I probably won't ship out before then but you never know. I guess I'll let you know when it gets closer to that time.

David, Is there any way you could make this into a Lunch instead of dinner?? I'm coming up that day to Nashville, but I have to goto my grandmother's 90th Bday.. or was it 95?? Either way, its a family gathering and I can not miss it.
Also we could see everyone's car better during the day.. instead of night..

Otherwise, I could come by around 12 and leave around 4. I'll see you that weekend!

Ok, I'm not coming now... your car was sweet 4 years ago, I can only imagine how nice it is now with 4 more years of tweaking. I don't think my can hold a candle. All I have done is beat the **** out of it .

May not have to trailer it, I'm going to try and sneak it through emission this year.

you know you can register one car, and switch that tag to the car that wont pass. . . the "switch" costs about 6.50 or something. its totally legal. i do it all the time. then, you take the car you swapped it from and get it retagged. i just tell em im selling the car or something so i dont want to waste a good tag.

Hahaha, hey Paul !

Got a funny small town story for you, I called Advance Auto Parts the other night to see if they had a water pump for an FD (yeah I know, fat chance). The one guy asks another and I hear the other guy yell from the background... "Ask him if his name is Paul" I just started laughing and told the guy "tell him no, I'm the other RX7 owner in town, the one with a slow car" .

I'm the same as Paul, I have drill... so as long as we don't get stuck unloading all the stuff getting back from Iraq until all hours of the night... I'll be there.

Phil,
Holla at me when you plan on running thru and I will link up with you on I-65.
I planned on going to Gars early to hang out since I am sure there will be a few peeps over there. O'well you got the number.

The pressure bleeder I think works better than a vacuum bleeder because it is using about 35psi of air pressure to force brake fluid thru the system forcing all the air out of the lines.
Charles owns a pressure bleeder so you would have to link up with him.

Also, incase you did not know but you need to bleed the brakes starting with the passenger side rear, driver side rear, passenger side front, then driver front in that order. Always start with the one furthest away from the master cyl. Well, that is what they taught us back in 1990 when I got my ASE cert. in brakes. It might have changed since then but I still do it the way I was taught.

If you and Gar don't link up soon and get it fixed we will try to link up (you,I and Charles) to knock it out. If you have a garage to park in, once the car is off the ground on jack stands and the wheels off it would not take but 5-10 minutes.

You got my number, just holla and we will see what we can do.

anyone know who the mod for this forum is, or where to find out? we need this to be a sticky... at least until we meet up.

Oh yeah, I should be off for the eating part, if not the whole day.
