possibly moving to Avondale, AZ. was wondering what the car scene is like around the Phoenix area and if there are any members that can tell me bout the area?

 

it sucks....and so does avondale...

 

The area of avondale itself is not my fav area of phoenix by far. Alot of theft on that side of town and as far as car peeps, they are far and spread around, and even worse if your looking for rotary heads...

But if you dont mind cruising a few miles, there is a ton of activity about 18 miles away in the East valley on weeknights and weekends

 

sry about your rx7 so sad....nsx looks uber sexy though

 

Going to UTI? I went there for a year. Loved my time out there, Luckily I had a good group of friends. There was about 4 of us who had FC's, a Couple guys with STi's, some Bikes, we would hang out most of the time. As for a Car scene, I never really got to see much. AZRx7.com is good group of guys. Caravaned out to Seven Stock with Jrat, and those guys. Most of the AZ guys hang out over there at AzRx7.com.

 

its all good, just a car right? im happy to have lived to drive another car

and an NSX... thats like a FD with pistons right?! lol

again to the OP

If you are coming out here, myself along with many others at azrx7.com woudl be happy to help you feel out the scene.

I no longer have an FD as it has been hinted to as of this thanksgiving but im a car buff none the less!

 

yeah thinking things out. right now. it will ether be UTI or ITT. cars or criminal justice. don't know which right. but AZ looking better and better every day. its ****** cold right now in WA.

 

Have fun with the speed cameras.

 

LOL.... im generaly not ttttoooooo bad about speeding round town. but on the highway i tend to play alot more. are there any good shops down there? performance, accessories, body ?

 

They have or had speed cameras on the freeway. Anything over 10 miles+ you get your picture takin. I only say 2 and they were on the other side of the valley from me, in Scottsdale.

 

az rx7 in tempe for all your rotary needs glen weaver and tom walling are the owners and both are super great guys

 

I'm actually starting at UTI on Febuary 15th right now is the plan, I was hoping there'd be some rotary guys out there to hang out with hopefully somebody else will be heading out there when I do.

 

i had the local forum on the brain..its arizona rotary rockets

 

im waiting for my profile to get approved for AZ RX7 right now. cant wait to get on there to start chating and hearing more about AZ.

im hoping that UTI will have something on rotary's in they're general auto at the begining.

 

Im on there too as InFamous, say hi!

 

Hit up Elliot from www.turblown.net.

He does custom fabrication and tuning. And builds bomb *** manifolds.

Example in progress for my 20b.

 

just went to the website for azrotayrockets and i like the looks of the site cant wait to see the shop and talk to people in person. my roommate and i are talking about taking a road trip down there come spring some time so we can kind check things out .

 

I saw the setup in the shop, looks great.

I used to live in avondale years ago, I hope you have a garage for your Rx-7.

 

im looking at places with garage parking........in the glendale area cause it is between the two campuses.

 

the web site looks cool. the porting and rebuilding looks cool. i want to keep my 13b and twin sequental turbos for now.

 

Yeah. He pretty much does everything. He has a 13b turbo sandrail at his shop that looks kick ***.

 

never seen a 20B up close. cant wait to get down there in spring and start looking around.

 

Get or build yourself a Spec7 (or pro7) and go racing with SCCA. They have a good group of RX7 racers. Most of their races are at PIR this year. The rest are at Firebird. There used to be a couple of other groups racing there too. You should be able to pick up a completed car for about $3000. Or I could probably find the Spec7 suspension parts and cage for $500-$600. Probably more fun than driving an NSX.
