Hey guys, i just realized the formula D finals at Irwindale are on the same day of our next meet Oct.14th. Does anybody plan/ or want to go there after our morning drive. If there is alot of of us going we might think about doing a run up the Azusa Canyon up the back side of Mt. Baldy where they filmed "Chasing the touge". It is about 10mn.from Irwindale and is between San Bernardino and the event so it'son the way. Just an idea. Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Damon

 

hey, are out-of-staters welcome? i got a stock '87 s4 that i just got runnin' and i'm looking to take it out for some fun!

 

of coarse... EVERYONE is welcome to come to our meets! damn, youll be coming from nevada? or are you around here?

 

hey is anyone going to the japanese classis car show in long beach on saturday. it will be at the queen mary park

 

hey guys if all goes well i will be there for this meet

 

you'd better be there! thats car looks friggen sweet!

 

man u guys missed a great show, lots of old school yotas rx7s 3 old celicas hondas n datsuns

 

Hope you make it NENE. I 've been wanting to see your FC for awhile now. Is anyone going to Forlmula D at Irwindale on the 14th?

 

i might go but i have to put somemore miles on my car to race it at pomona for the drags next month. i got 350 on it already

 

OH CRAP!!! 27 days till Sevenstock and i haven't started on my car yet. Anyway Jesse, I got every monday till SS so we can get started. I believe all I need now is a trans. So I will make a few phone calls today. I got the clutch, so I'm not sure what else we will need.

So if anyone has a N/A trans they want to sell hit me up!!!

 

we picked up jessie's car today...it was a bitch getting it on and off the trailer, but we emerged victorious with no vehicular damage

and since i couldn't sleep (insomnia sucks)... i figured i might as well do something useful.

alternator relocation was a snap, but i'm not yet sure what i'll have to do to make sure the fd alt. lines up perfectly with the main pulley. i'll get to that later.

stock fuel line up to where the stock fuel filter would have been. if you look at the one pic of the hose by the radiator, i used adhesive-lined heat shrink tube to keep the end from fraying. it's so freaking ghetto when someone clamps a braided line onto a hard line and lets it fray.....white trash style (ahem....anjew). this way, it'll stay nice and clean until we do the complete -8 fuel system in the future.

also notice the clamps and hangars.. that'll keep everything in its place for the long haul so he'll never have to worry about lines rubbing against ****.

 

lookin good! cant wait to see the finished product...... cant wait to hear the finished product!

 

that looks unbareevable dave!

 

damn dave..you got alot done last night! holy cow! jeff (mrsparkle) has the same relocation kit w/ an fd alt, and there wernt any line up problems.. so hopefully we dont either..... also, theres a different bracket for the top of the alternator... its a swivel/adjustable thing...

 

Its called a turnbuckle and Hime end..... dork. you so sound like a blonde female there.

EDIT: I only saw it once, but that did have a hime end right?

 

yeah, itys a heim joint.... like im supposed to know what a heim joint is since i use them sooooo much

 

yea!

 

damn Jesse that engine bay is making el nene 7 jeoluos...he told me last night that he wants to be clean like vipers...so i guess i am next

Dave ....man if theres anyone that can get the job done in half the time and right hes the one...bro how much sleep did you get this week i called Fris yesterday and he said ya were picking it up

 

it's amazing how much work you can get done when you take sleep out of the equation

 

do u think u will have the motor broke in by 7stock jesse

 

[QUOTE=socalfct2]Hope you make it NENE. I 've been wanting to see your FC for awhile now. Is anyone going to Forlmula D at Irwindale on the 14th?[/QUOTE

i hope so too bro everything seems to work fine...i will be with Fris and Dave so we shall all meet out there soon

 

Sweet! It'll be nice to have a handful of fc's representing.

 

hey guys... how many of you are comming to the meet? It looks like a few of the RX-8 people (maybe even me) are not going to be able to make it this time around. this is a good time for the seven people to take the meet over!!! I would love to see that.

 

riceburner.... as long as i get the car back in a good amount of time (hell, even 2-3days) i should have it broken in..... ill just drive back and forth to palm springs for a few days after i get off work to get those 500 miles racked on... dave says at the worst, i should get it back a week before ss9...

yeah, there will be a few rx8's not showing up, but no big deal... it doesnt matter the quantity of cars.. just that anyone who can make, please do so, and we'll have a good time

 

hey, i actually worked in the daytime today
i'm usually nocturnal.
