I just have a stock pressure plate, and a 'high-performance' disc from i think mazdatrix. i have no slipping problems.

Street Port, RB Street Port exhaust, and RB Street port Holley setup.
BTW, My Sterling has been ordered and paid for, as well as a core turned in. Now All I have to do its wait for it, then port the intake when it comes in.

Hey, everyone, don't forget about the meet this Saturday. This is our first in a while on the Penninsula. Here are the details:
When: Saturday, February 19, 2005 at 6:30 PM
Where: Hooter's
12640 Jefferson Avenue
Newport News, VA 23602
(757) 886-9464
If you aren't sure of the location go to mapquest.com and enter the address to get driving directions. If you are not sure of the location still PM me before and I will send my cell phone number to call if you get lost. The parking lot at this place sometimes gets crowded, but this is after Football season, so that should make the crowds a little smaller. If anyone wants to get there earlier and save us either a place in the parking lot let me know. If you haven't RSVP'ed go to this page:
http://rx7.meetup.com/55/events/3981210/
and do so. It has a place for "maybe's" if you aren't sure. This gives us a good idea of how many parking spaces to hold and how big of a table to get inside. The weather at this point looks like it might be a little chilly, but not like last time. We should be able to do the usual BS-ing outside around the cars and not freeze our a**es off like last time.
In addition, there is a Tidewater Sports Car Club autocross on the following Sunday. There are a few of our members/friends that are pre-registered. The event is at the Pungo Fairgrounds. It is a small autocross site, but the courses there are usually fun and great places to run if you have never autocrossed before. For more information go to this site:
http://tidewatersportscarclub.com/
and click on the registration link. For mapquest directions look up the address of Pungo Pizza and Ice Cream and get driving directions. The event site is almost next door to this business. Feel free to ask if oyu have any question.

Yeah, post your list. If Rich doesn't have it, I probably do. I don't have the lift actuators, but I know what you can do about getting new replacemets at local auto parts stores. Does your car have the rear wiper?
