The directions were to get off the 101 freeway on Las Virgenes exit and then..........(is the gas station near the freeway?)..........finally arrive at mobile gas station?

hondasr4kids

as soon as you get off the 101, you will see the gas station right in front of you a liitle bit to the right, you can't miss it.

me i'm the manager of a paint store. that is short on help, and right now in a slow process of closing. the lease went way too high. ah but fear not i still have my job and title, i'll just be filling in at other stores for awhile. it's what we call a roving manager. but it's more like a high paid clerk position, so it's cool for now..

Are rx-7 outlawed? If I show will I get ugly looks? Please be honest, I have an older fc that has full racing beat exhaust so yes it is very loud. I dont want to show up and **** everyone off!

\\Konig\\

iTrader: (4)

Yes we hate fc's entirely.


JK man, I wouldnt mind at all, it would be great to have you there.

fc? i am guessing are 1st or 2nd gens right? you may have a hard time keeing up, i noticed in a San Bernardino meet they were all over the place and the traction was not that great, but then again if yours is in good condition i could be wrong, you are still welcome to come...I may be totally worng.

StealthFox

i dunno man, im bringing my loud as **** smelly rx7 and hoping i wont **** anyone off

StealthFox

thats the second gen rx7, and you'd be suprised, a FC can whoop the **** out of an RX8 in canyon driving the first gen is no slouch either its the lightest of all of the RX's (i know and will state authoritavely b/c at one point i owned an FC and an rx8 at the same time haha) my FC is gone now in favor of a different rx7.

kwescott

Loren, this FC would be similar to "drift" that comes to the San Bernardino meets...he ahs that stock blue one that he gutted the interior out of. His is also very loud.

The only thing I can say, is I don't want an FC infront of me, the lask of emission controls make me light headed and will give me headaches if I have to smell your exhaust the whole way. But yes, come on out. Looks like we will have a lively bunch this time. Just add your name to the list and get someone's cell number in case you get lost or are running late to the meet location.

xrider01

those of you from the I.E., if i don't meet up w/you at the park, give me a call on my celly to know where i'm at. i don't want to miss the event cuz i slept in

Detrich

i wish my friends could come out w/ their FD's too... but, 50k+ and an entire garage full of parts, turbos, intakes, hoses, belts, rivets, gadgets & every tool u could possibly imagine later, their cars are still completely undriveable- 3+ years and counting...

is what happens when going overboard w/ the engine mods i guess. <shrugs> ironically, it was watching them work on their cars every week that got the rotary bug into me in the first place. go figure...

P.S.

Q: How do u fit a turbo the size of an 80lb watermelon in the engine compartment of and FD?
A: Take apart the entire engine, re-do all the wiring & everything, spend gobs & gobs of money, and then watch your car rot in the garage...

ROFL!

socalrotor

I have a few suspention mods,. and about every NA bolt on worth a crap. I dont mind taking up the rear, yes it will make your eyes water. I Dont plan on hauling major ***,but I dont think keeping up will be a huge issue, but getting left behind is always posible, no LSD rear diff keeps me in check.

x-ped

I know I have one of the pictures which I can email you if you want. The Hi-Res pic I'll have to see if my friend still has the cd which I saved it on since he made the poster for me. As far as the video, Ill try and upload it after the meet.

Looks like this saturday will be a good turn out...

kwescott

Usually what we do, is line up in order of "adrenaline"....those who want to go faster go more towards the front. If you find yourself driving beyond you ability, all we ask is that you allow the person behind you to pass, but by the time you get to the rear, it is a pretty slow cruise. We'll figure out all the particulars in the morning. We go on a quick warm up run, and then re-order from there. This seems to work the best for everyone. I have been to only one Malibu cruise where we got separated...it usually doesn't happen because we try to keep each other in our mirrors.

We will need to designate what to do in these event that we get separated, because as we found out that day, cell service doesn't work in the canyons. So, we'll probably pick meet locations if we get separated.

StealthFox

that sounds like a good idea. since im going to be a first timer, a warm up run to see where i should place myself would be very very ehlpful.

hondasr4kids

That and putting about $16k into mods and maintenance in one year was the reason I got rid of my FD thant's not including the 20B I HAD.

scremn8

well good news i'll be able to make it.

\\Konig\\

iTrader: (4)

Can't wait to eat some good fried shrimp at Neptunes. mmm

StealthFox

where did you get your 20b and how much did you sell it for ;D

i assume you were running single if you put 16k into it...ive put about 400 dollars so far in reliabilty mods and maintain my car and it runs like a champ.

hondasr4kids

I sold it to a guy that Autotech Motorsport is doing a 20b in a FC vert. I was planning in dropping it on the 8 but it is also my family car and at the time and I needed the money. The motor was street ported 850cc pri and 1600cc sec., LTX-12 ecu, complete rebuild. Sold it for $4k.

Nope $16k was before I was planning on going single. And the car was imaculate when I got it too. No motor replacement either. good portion of that went to handling deparment. Here are a few pics, just scroll down to my name http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=430558&page=4 the only thing that you don't see in the pics are the JDM Recaros. Under the hood 850cc all around, non-seq, pretty much every mod you could bolt on with out touching the turbos. I was making 347whp.
This is what she looked like when I got her a year before I sold her.
