on a sad note...lost an RX tuner today...."Guitar Junkie" was involved in a head on collision and did not survive. Was one of the only guys porting Renesis engines...and he was the builder on Jessie's ("Vipers") Orange FC that was in the demonstration area of Seventstock.
Be careful out there guys...conditions and other drivers....not things that can be predicted.

I think Ghost may even have Tanabes on his car right now, and had considered swapping them out for other bars...so you may even be able to talk him out of his current Tanabe setup....

Which sways do you use? I'm looking for the stiffest ones, Racing beat or Tanabe i suppose right? Even the white line adjustables would be fine i want to try to get them before the meet,

Kw1k, I was thinking of getting tanabe sways before the meet but I just spent money on tires so I'm trying to slow down on my spendings. Check out hopupracing.com their in san diego and have free shipping.

x-ped: newcastle said over on the LAX thread that he'd be showing up for the run. Didn't want to speak for him and sign him up but just a heads up.
Another thing, could anyone fill me in on the specifics of the run? How long really is what I'm looking for. Or any reference post I can look at? Gotta see if I can just move around my work sched or have to get the day off.
Anyone thinking about going to the Caravan or Car Wash for guitarjunkie?

The cruises usually last about 3 hours or so, with a break for lunch. Many spots to stop and take pictures, and hang out.
I will be attending the caravan for guitarjunkie. It falls on our normally scheduled meet day, so it should be a very large group. The goal of that run will be different though....to show respect...not to have a spirited run like the Malibu runs are.

There seems to be two or three strategies. (1) stiff strut and spring settings, with a moderate bar setup..(2) softer spring/strut rates with a more aggressive bar setup (3) a balanced setup that has a little advantage spread out amongst more parts.

Just drove up stunt road (one of the roads we will be doing) and a brand new Z06 got caught by a biker cop and going back down I saw a different cop that pulled over 2 highly modded s14 nissan silvia's. Hopefully it won't be heavily patrolled during the meet.
