On top of this RPM mentioned a few of their local guys showing up, most likely 7s. http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=745598 thread from the 7 club, so far 4 yes and 2 maybes on their side, which puts us at 21 rotaries confirmed. I'll pm kris, spd frk and zerobio soon, to double check they can make it out for sure.

Great Kris, look forward to seeing those new rims and the interior. Guys, I was talking to Neo tonight, we met up along with Footman and Proficentone at a Mazda 3 meet, but ya maybe we should all stop bringing stuff, and pitch in 10 to 20 bucks to get stuff there. Its gonna be a long drive, and our trunks are notorious for being like the Dominos heat bags. Don't want anyone getting sick or having the food spoil. If you want to bring drinks by all means go for it, like what Gecko is doing. But I think its best if we pick up food by RPM. I've already found an M and M, a Sobeys, LCBO and a Beer Store by there. Just waiting on reply from spd frk and zerobio, and also all the others I PMed on the GTA roll call list.

LoL, Gecko you should still bring the pie, lol. As long as its cool. I just meant in reference to fresh meat and fruits from going bad. You can keep that pie chilled with the keiths. Use the force.

Updated the Map on the first page. Its got locations of two beer stores, a lcbo, a sobeys and a M and M meat store. The Sobeys is out of the way, but a store search of Loblaws showed non in teh area. I figure on our way to the M&M meat store, we're bound to see a grocery store on the way, if not we'll ask RPM.

I ordered my H-Techs from Billy at Tires 23. Funny thing is, he gave me a better price than JRP and He ordered them through them!

Im hoping to have the springs in next week, he said they should be in this coming week. It would be nice to have them installed at RPM. How much you think these guys will charge to install the springs? I will have woodbridge allignment do the allignment for me.

Anybody can give you a better price than the JRP store front. For obvious reasons, they don't undercut their resellers.

Kris I dont want to suggest the wrong price, but if you take a look on the first page, RPM quoted possibly 40 an hour for their labor rate that da rate I think, but I still would call them and let them know that your coming up with us and what you want done. Are you getting shocks on too Kris? I didnt want to do springs yet, cause of the springs with stock shocks issue. www.rpmmotorsports.ca

So I thought about the ideas for the food, I figure we already have a 24 of keiths and pie coming, courtesy of Gecko69. I will post, unless Neo can, on the 7 club regarding this meet, and get those guys to pitch in for a 24, should be about 10 bucks among the 4 or 5 of them. That should cover us for drinks, I think, legally. On the way there, I think we should just drop by M&M Meats after we get off the exit in Breslau. Theres a LCBO beside there if need to get more drinks. And I have plotted a Sobeys near there, unless we see another grocery store by, to pick up other meat and bread for the bbq.

Yeah im just doing springs for now, I only have the car for 2 more years so I dont know if i want to spend anymore on it.

The H-techs are pretty much the same spring rate as the OE springs so it shouldnt be too stressful on the stock dampers.

I just finished firing up the car!! It took forever since I found out the stock front undertray will not fit due to the configuration I have on the car. I didn't the proper tools to start dicking around with it. So I figured I'll wait till this weekend and hopefully get it installed. Also, if it's not too much trouble, I'd like to get my 99 spec steering wheel installed too.

I took a look at the forecast and they're calling for 19C this Sat.!!!

I can't wait!!
