The Tokico blues are good. The standard Tokico's (I think they are black) are still pretty good quality, and work fine for a street car. I have read that they are the OEM shock for the FB's. You will probably be fine with the KYB's, I have heard some people with reliability issues with them, but the company has always stood behind from the people I have known.

Sunday Im not sure yet , but remember Im trying to get 3 motors built , so my free time is real limited . What r u trying to get worked on , you have such a large list. What side rear light did you have ????? I forgot
Ive got the Tokico Illum , and they are great . I have ground control coil overs , and the jury is out on them . I had some spring slapping going on for a while , but I think my install was not done 100% correct . I made a small change and no problems as of yet , but the car has been off the road since OCT .

Don't get me wrong, I love my kids more than anything and would do anything for them. I just wouldn't do it over again. And no, I don't consider this a conflict of ideals.

Hey Calvin ,it there anyway we can start a new thread for our local club . I was wondering if it would be to hard to have our screen names with maybe 5 pics of our cars . This would be a neat way to identify a local car if we run into it on the road . Im not a computer guru, but I know several of you guys on here are . is this a possibility ???
Also lets get a list of who is making the next meet and the karts . lets start the list and keep it growing
1. Va Gamler is 90 % he is going to make it - I want to take on Calvin !!!

OriGiNaL TyPe R, where are you now? In South East Va? We generally meet in NN, Hampton, or somewhere on the Southside.

I should be able to make it since I work in good 'ol ptown.
BTW, just a warning. Avoid 264 during the morning and late afternoon. The Harry S. Truman (Aircraft Carrier) is docked at NNSY. I'll say again, 6,000 sailors have just been crammed into one tiny area. Traffic is UBER heavy now in that area.
No, that's not a typo...it's really 6,000 crew members.

Guys, The meetup site is still working. The link is:
http://rx7.meetup.com/55/
And the event part is:
http://rx7.meetup.com/55/events/
There are 13 people already RSVP'd for the event there.
I will have our new site up in a week or so. I just haven't had time to set it all up. I am going to have a forum there, a photo album that you guys can upload pics to, and some other things as I get time.
It is hamptonroadsrotaryclub.com but it is just an ad for Dale for now. I intend to have ads on the site when it get active. That means that you guys will need to click on the ads from time to time to pay for the site. Just be patient, work and stuff is getting to me right now and I just haven't gotten it done. Sorry.

Some of you have been doing a little testing of our new web site for me. I intend for it to go completely live this weekend. You will see a post here with the links to the site, along with a little bit of instruction. The new site in intended to replace the meetup site (for cost reasons). I don't expect to replace this thread.

Ok, the site is set up enough that I am going to make it public to you guys. The main page is there. It looks very simple. I will improve that shortly, just be patient. There is a link from the main page to the "discussion forums". That is where I expect most of you to do the most posting, etc. There will be a photo album that all of the members can post pictures to. I expect to have that working sometime this weekend.
Anyway, the site is:
http://hamptonroadsrotaryclub.com/
Go register on the forum. The forum and the homepage have separate registration areas. It is probably best if you sign up at both places. You will need the homepage account to upload pictures and articles.
Remember this is a work in progress. There is a suggestion thread on the forum page. If you have any ideas there, I encourage you to post them there.
Again this is replacing the meetup site. It will still be active for a little while, but expect it to disappear soon.
Oh and there will be ads on the new site. If you see something, click on the ad!!! That is what is going to pay for the web site. I need you guys to help me out here. rest assured that if we make lots of money from this, I will roll it back into the club and we will have catered parties every month at the meetings :-). So the more you click on the ads on the club site, the more you help yourself.
Thanks
