Speaking of roommates, is anyone here looking for a place to live? My roommate recently informed me that he is moving to Nags Head to pursue his dreams next month...

I live in Ashland if anyone is interested, pm me.

Brick house with basement, double car port, detached garage (taken up mostly by my v8 project).

Let me know if you are interested.

I had a auto parts car, until my brother decided he wanted a RX7. So i took that car and put another motor in it and hes been happy with it every since.
I know they had 2 at russels junkyard in dinwiddie, im sure he still has them, the problem is just finding them, its a danger zone out there. The number is in the petersburg phone book, but he wont tell you if he has any parts or what not cause he dont even know what he has his self.

Very possible, you will have to squeeze though, the front seat gets moved up pretty far with all the hoosiers in the car. Also Sarah and Lil'D will most likely be coming along in her SC Miata. So if you have an extra $25 and there's an open slot, you could run in the 7 if you want.

On a different note I am going to this meetup on the 17th:

OMG that is sick. I thought you where just BSing when I heard the talk about a corvette motor.

I almost put my turbo swap up for sale for a ls-1 swap, but I was too skeptical of the stories of the torque ripping the subframes and having driveshaft alignment problems, because I am driving my car really hard I didnt want to have to worry.

you have to run just a turn down pipe after the headers and a big nasty cam. I would love to see that little rx-7 shaking from the motor camming at idle.

Anyways I have the haltech installed minus the coils, and just ordered my last little bits. Im shooting for 260whp now until I get comfy with car at the track and then progress from there, all in all it was cheaper and easier for me to hit 400 whp (my goal with this motor) suspension is all done, just need 2 5 point harnesses a cage and a midpipe and Im good to go.

ill call u this weekend I will be wrenching hungover on sat.

Dave,
I've got a gutted stock S4 downpipe and midpipe.

Shoot me an e-mail at cafcwest at gmail dot com if you need them, I'm not on the forum much anymore.

Sounds good...I'd go up with ya dave but I have a friend coming down for the weekend...she's coming to my company xmas party also...so I think staying at the house would be the best bet .

On another note, my stepfather is looking for a job. Mechanical Drawing. Anyone know of anything? He's got some 20 years of experience.
