Nick, check the hose clamps on your secondaries....if not, then I dunno...

 

i'll talk to Zack tomorrow and see what the plan will be on a poker fun run. i also like the idea of cruisin out west. give some of these other folks a break on driving. maybe move the poker fun run that direction as suggested earlier.

the way i set it up the run can be managed with one or two bodies. i don't need much to organize it.

oh.. nasty.. one of the guys just got hit with a short notice to deploy. coulda been me. hopefully i will have 4 wks before i hit the road too. i'll be on leave and in the area for the last part of dec if folks want to do a mini meet.

i'm down for the movies/dinner or whateva. i know of a great mexican restuarant in vacaville if folks want to meet in that area.

bed time.. out

Evan

 

lol pain in the *** huh
thats why after i put the whole thing back in my car i was calling ben saying "hey do you wanna finish this while i am at work" thank god he said yes
hey ben lol nevermind i think i might be able to do it this time but if not ring a ling

 

we can meet at my house, even tho its hella little. it is in the edge of vacaville and fairfield, then after we can go out cruising.its just to meet up tho u guys cant stay in the house D=, o yeah only on the 14th tho.

If we do, we can cruise in the crazy hills with my friend with a hachi and then go out for dinner/movie w/e

 

Hey i'm down to go anytime.. just hit me up. i'm down in the city.. you guys should come to san francisco....

 

Heh hopefully if I can get a hold of a clean FB shell Ben'll be getting some experience putting an engine into a 1st gen. =P If he doesn't already that is. ^^

 

i know he has a few motors torn apart from a 1st gen so i am not sure if he has done one or not
are you looking at running a 12a or 13b in it

 

Trying to find a GSL for my 12A. 21/30 mileage baby, woo!

Of course my other friend keeps saying I should put it in a motorcycle, the dork. =P

 

matt, seems like your totalling into the rotary scene now. that's great. glad i convinced you to get a 7?

now if i can just get my car back to good working order. kinda messed up my diff at the track...and still got a shitty time,

 

Sweet you made it to the track day, how was that?

When is your infamous TII going to be up and rolling? ^^

 

how you guys did chue. I remember you calling me that day to go, but yeah how was it. You ran in your red FC right?

 

So am I Damn Married couple teams you suck...OH wait nevermind, hopefully I'll still be here and not deployed

 

Yeah better get all in before it gets uncomfortable

 

hey evan what mexican resturant are u talking about? let me guess Murillos? i agree w/ the vacaville/ fairfeild thing considering i live in vacaville... as for a mini meet im going to new mexico for two weeks and wont be back until jan 3rd so hopefuly we can agree to somthin after that date so i can be there .

 

The place I was thinking of is Burrito Place. I ate there a few times and like it. I was looking it up.. it's on Marshall.

Well we should get a better feel for what folks wanna do by next week.

Why is that I always wind up racing somebody when I leave Zach's house. I usually don't bother. I took out a Harley sportster.

Oh... funny... Jay got pulled over last nite for taking the exit off Bridge st into Yuba City to fast. Lucky bastard flashed his ID card and got off with a warning...hehe.
Damn Miata owners!

 

Berry said she had no clue what an Intenational Scout 80 4x4 looked like. So here's a pic of mine. It's the first year model. It has the half cab shell and bone stock. Previous owner installed some jump seats and I think the winch is upgraded. The 4 cyl engine is a V8 chopped in half. 3 sp non-syncro gears. Which means double clutching for you youngsters. Not running at the moment cause it needs the dual master cylinder and a wheel cylinder replaced. Losing brakes on the highway is scary business. I'll get her on the road again after my desert trip.

 

zach is gonna have a fit when i post these but oh well, i had fun beating the hell out of nick's pristine 10th AE doing the FMIC install, it has been coming along quite nicely though.

here is a few hours worth of progress:

 

oh, btw, this is the cheap *** ebay intercooler and 2mm thick piping kit, less than a $400 full front mount kit that i helped nick pick out and im pretty impressed with the quality of everything supplied.

 

Vice grip, dremel, hammer. nuff said haha.

-btw Evan...Jay is in the military right? Told ya you all get off with a flash of the id

 

i got major wheel hop all throughout the runs i had. i got terrible times. i know my car is faster then that but bad launches kicks you the the ***** hard.

i went with slpin..he ran a 14.4 if i remember correctly..untuned. it was a good experience since i've never been to the track before..just regular street races.

ben, that looks very nice.

 

With that FMIC do you get to keep Power Steering and AC? Or do you have to remove one or both? From those pics that cheapo ebay IC looks pretty nice.... Suprises me as well.. wonder if there is something wonky with the flow rate or something of that sort?

Looks good!

 

well he put down 300+RWHP at the dyno with a hybrid stock turbo so i'm gonna say it flows decent.

 

300rwhp @11 psi with fat exhaust leak (dp is warped to hell), and boost issues.

When I upped the boost to 15 psi it went to 14 psi @ 4.5k rpms then tappered down to 11 psi @7k rpms or so where it made peak hp.

 

hey nick mike said hurry up and fix the downpipe so you can run him again
oh yeah and hurry up and come by to give me a ride in it lol

 

The progress on Nick's car looks good.

Berry and I got back from the D1 last night. All I can say is DAMN!! We had a ton of fun. I'll be loading all of the pictures soon enough.

I think that maybe we should start a designated postwhore thread since we are all so bad about it. That way our meet threads will be able to stay on topic. I have talked to a few people and they said that they always have a hard time finding the info about meets because we all like to talk to each other so much. Just a thought though.
