I should be able to make it out if the weather cooperates. I need to clean the car badly first though

Is anyone still planning on making it tonight? It doesn't look like it's going to rain but it is windy/chilly out.

Hehe, yeah no problem. You get used to it around the 7s. Plus, I got to listen to that glorious exhaust tone for a bit longer.

I probably won't be making the trek out because of the lame weather. Hopefully next week will be nicer.

LOL, I will roll over tomorrow around 6. Not sure if the smelling the fumes are as bad driving the 6 puck clutch and the Kazz in parking lot traffic.

I'm taking the day off to go to King's Dominion but I should be back by CFA time. I'll try and head over but I probably won't have time to wash all the bug splats off the car.

One of these days I'll get some free time to make it out there. Hopefully the weather will hold for next Friday.

A free friday night so I should be able to make it. Doesn't seem like the rain is coming back.

Anyone else?

I agree, the forecast has really cleaned up. I'll probably be there if enough are going to show.

I might even bring the little monster if I can get home early enough to wash it.

As usual I will not be able to make it out tonight. Seems to be the case for the remainder of the month as well.

Ugh, at this rate I might as well just sell the car.

I really need to clear up my fridays. That is a much larger meet then I expected.

Believe I saw four FD's and an FB together. Sorry I didn't say hello ; No parking next to you guys and didn't know who/where you were. Relegated myself to a corner somewhere and went to stare at the classic muscle. Left shortly after.

Hopefully I can go again soon.

Gonna play it by ear, they say the rain is coming around 4pm today. The FD is still not finished but I've made a lot of progress. The new steering rack is in and I just got these ready to install:



Maybe wrap it up this weekend

Sweet, want to do mine?



Anyone have a new oil filter? I want to do an oil change on the FD tonight before the AutoX tomorrow and I can't find where I stashed my spares. I'd rather drive out to CFA and get to hang out a bit then have to drive down to Malloy and have to skip CFA.

Anyone?

Want to? I don't even want to do my own! But if you want to bring em over I certainly can offer some help The front ones, apart from being a geometrically challenging piece to get into a press, were a lot easier than the rear ones.

Sorry don't have any filters. I just go to the autoparts store for mine. Usually get a Bosch Premium filter and call it good.

+1 on that, just grab one at the auto parts store. We run through them fast enough as it is

Armitage, are those the Powerflex bushings? i agree with them being a PITA to install being so akward. I did all the bushings on my FD, and only massacre was a bent trailing arm from a bushing that would NOT budge. glad to see someone else running them.
