So, would anyone be interested in some Bridgeport irons? I will have a set for a 12A or 13B first gen available shortly. They will probably need to be resurfaced, but they will make nice set.

What engine are they for? A 6 port N/A? If so I may be inclined to split Judge Ito's fee with you on the templates As I have a S4 sitting around and am picking up a nice rotory variable speed porting tool next week

Not sure what port they are for. I just sent Ito a PM on the other forum, askin if it is for a 4 or 6 port. All he has shown are pictures of 4 port motors, so I asked him if it would still be useable if we were to knock down the aux bridge.

So apparently the HOA is on us again, giving us a month to do something with our cars. We arn't allowed to park in the street because it "gives the neighborhood less value", kinda like how they make us keep all trash cans out of sight from the street, and fences in only one color. Wtf. So we have 7 cars, and no where to put 2 of them.

I wonder what they are going to do.

Well, It looks like your going to have to clean up the rotor repair shop side of the garage and allow one in there. Then pour some concrete next to the exiting drive and say extension, J/K, that probably wouldn't work. At least get one more in the garage if possible. Then rent a spot from a neighbors driveway I did that in Phoenix at the apartments when i had 3 cars there.

Hey Stu. If you want to get ahold of your guy at Mazda and get the gaskets ordered, I would appreciate it. I saw Bryan at RotorSports today. He looked over my irons and housings. He said they would be fine. He suggested swapping the front and rear housing to keep the corner apex from that little groove in the SA housing. Rock on! I have the center iron bridged, and the housings notched. I went ahead and opened the bridge up more on the front and rear irons to match the center. So, full bridge it is

Bryan also said with Shawn leaving, he will be needing someone to work there in his place. Stu, you should talk to Bryan about possibly working for him.

Hell yeah. Post up his number, I will head down there tomorrow or something. Take my dad's car. Oh and I think I know how you got that groove in the housing. The triangle apex piece. We should have superglued it in. My guess is that when we put the intermediate plate on, and we had to lift the E-Shaft up, it could have worked its way loose then. Something like that. If it were the front, then when we were aligning the Iron to the housing it could wiggle loose. Did some searching on it and found this to be... uh not common, but the usual suspect for this type of scenario.

So I go to drill a hole in the car for the under wing mount... drill right through the back.

****.

So I got a hole to patch now. So I go on and move it higher, but the angle it is at makes the bit walk around. Finally get it seated, drill a hole under the wing but visible from the back.

****.

Now I don't want a wing.

No, this is drilling under the wing, not near the hatch area. Grabbed some bondo and semi patched it from the rear.

**** sucks man.

It is in the metal though yes? Or the wing? We can glass the wing if need be. Anyways, you'll still feel better after looking at my hatch
BONDO is the work of satan. We need to fix it properly after it is fit You'll regret it later.

Through the metal. Like a few inches above the tail lights, before the bodywork bends and goes towards the hatch. Put like 3 fingers above the tail light, and there is the hole.

Now I have 2 more holes, but they are on the crease of the tail light/hatch area. You can see the holes, and I would assume you would see the screws a little, depending on how far we would be able to pull it down.

Man Stu, by the time you get finished punching holes in your car, you're gonna need my Silver One!

I didn't think that whale tail was a very good idea.
