Sorry, I just realized they i had a typo ahead. The karts are not inside. They are outside. My bad guys.

Anyways, on the dyno meet what time is this so posed to take place? I still dont think we will be able to make it considering jen has to work every sat morning.

im shooting for around 10am- till when ever we get done. kinda depends on how many people show up. and we will be having lunch at one of the parks off riverside. but anyways the reason i marked the calendar for such a late date is so everyone could ask off if they needed too. can't beet a 20 dollar dyno..XD. i also have this posted up on the 7 forum so there should be lots of rotary brothers and sister there. and if you have something else you want to drive for the dyno by all means bring it.. take advantage of this awesome price. most places charge 75$ and up for a dyno run. we will also be taking pics of our rotary community so be sure all your babies are clean..XD

I would love to come to a meet like that. And if it where possible for me and jen to ask off work i would do it for this meet. cheap dyno and would be fun. But since im new on a job, it wouldnt be a good idea to ask off. And my wife cant have saturdays off. at least till she get vacation time.

Ok. As for this Sunday, I would love to ride some carts, but I think we might get rained out. What if we met up and head to bartlesville for lunch and if we get rained out we can all go see Fast5. I'll have my son w/ me. Let me know why you guys think.

Got my coilovers in the mail today, so I now have everything I need for my suspension. Only thing that sucks is I wont be able to put it in for a few weeks. Going on Vacation next week and the car is going to be out of commission because I'm having Carlos take out the turbo and its being sent off to BNR to get modified. Then I need to get some new fuel injectors and have the sucker retuned.

before you buy the mazdaspeed front end think about two other options. The Autoexe SE-03Cfront end which looks like so:

And the re-amemiya front spoiler which looks like so:


The RE-Amemiya is not only functional but carbon fiber.

Well, the big issue with the AutoExe is it is made of FRP and I would rather have a poly-urethane bumper with how wonderful the streets are in Oklahoma. And as for the Re-Amemiya, one of the main reasons I want the MS one is it has a larger opening in the front which shows off my intercooler and gives better airflow. The FRP material is what has turned me off to every bumper I've thought of getting over the MS. Thanks for the suggestions though.

I have an idea for the next meet, we can have a mod James' car day! Once the work is done on the Turbo I'll have a lot of stuff to put on. Got some sways and coilovers in my garage... still haven't put the BHR ignition in...

Lol. I'm down for that. I need to install my rear shocks. But I'll prob do that thurs. I'll need to be able to focus on your coilovers. Which I think the fun part will be setting the ride height. We will set it a little high so that the springs can settle. Then set it where you want it in a couple of weeks. Any idea on your wider rims. That will defintely effect ride height and alignment. I would go 18x9.5 or 10 +45 to +35 at the most all the way around with 275/35 or 295/35.

I think some black rpf1's would look good or some work cr kai. That would at least keep you in the 2g range.

wow, it does sound like a mod james car day coming. lol. hey we are still down for carts sometime. Maybe we can plan 2 weeks in advance, so we have room for corrections.

Does anyone have any issues with lunch & kart day being on a sunday?

The turbo is in Alabama getting a facelift by Brian at BHR Supercars. Should have the car together and in one piece in about two weeks. All I need to do now is find a tuner...
