^really i thought that was normal...i do know some guys tend to take a while to get here (get up late).

I beleive this month is a bieek ride on saturday and then we are going hiking on Sunday in the desert. But i will try to rally the 8's for April. The 2nd sat is clear since the bike ride is the following week.

I was just giving you a hard time. Besides, you RX-8 guys have been going to this meet for years longer than I have.

Its on the first post of the first page of this thread.

At one meet, we had all three generations of RX-7, and plenty of RX-8's. Old schoolers are welcome as well.


WHAT: We meet at 9:00 am, and hang out for a while.
We usually head out for a drive around 9:30 or 10:00, and stop and grab lunch later.


WHEN: Second Saturday of every month.
For the rest of 2005, that will be: August 13, September 10, October 8, November 12, and maybe December 10 (we skipped December last year).


WHERE: Parking lot of Pirate City Tattoo, which is on E Street in San Bernardino, across from Pep Boys.
Map and address can be found at http://www.piratecitytattoo.com/



If you've got any questions, feel free to ask on this thread, or PM speeddemon32 , vipers , or myself.

Matt and Addison - https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php...64&postcount=3

'86-'88 = 70 amp. Wouldn't charge my battery with 14 amp e-fan.

'89-'91 = 80 amp. Charged enough but, it's now broken. I bought it used.

'93+ = 100 amp. It's in and working now. This puts me well over my needed amperage.

'89-'91 costs only about $10 less than the '93+ at NAPA.

There's a little work involved in going to the '89-'91. There's more work to go to the '93+.

Here it is. I just finished.

Yeah Jesse, woooo! Back behind the seat of a go-kart powered vehicle!

Johnson, have you found a shell yet? I know UCR is going through finals right now, so do you have any plans for the car situation over Spring Break?

Picked up a clean s5 GXL roller in February, I just finished my finals today, so I'm ready to start working! If anyone knows anyone with a red TII hood for sale, send them my way!

I've got one more class left and I'll walk this spring!

So I got my car back from the body shop today and I'm not really happy about the results. I had may problems right away when I left. I was really mad at first now I'm more sad at what's going on. I'm thinking about calling them but not sure if it will get me anywhere. I'll go into details a little bit later.

continued...the story of me picking my car up. everything looks good on the outside. but when I look under the hood I see its pulled but not super straight. I did really know what to think so I left and hit the freeway. but my rev's don't work my left turn signal is dragging on the road as I exit it fly's off somewhere. so now that wire is grounding out I had to pull black tape off something else to cover that up. so today I'm doing an alinement because my car is not safe for the road. but when that's all good I'll be around, oh yea I think since the crash my timming may be off or something elsewhere not sure because the idle is rougher

Yeah let me get your turn signals I have a S5 front bumper.
I also talked to the guy this morning and he wants me to bring the car down so we can sort everything out. So I guess that's part of my saturday. I'm really happy to hear how willing he is to fix things but I'll have to wait and see what happens because if they were careful I wouldn't be in this situation.
