Hey guys, had a nice time today. It was nice meeting some new faces. I would recomend gnv for any parts you guys need. And really we should all try to support a local shop even with having to pay sales tax. Im up for a another meet soon myself, especially after monday . Im going to have some new bling for the ride. "is that term still hip" or is it "ice" now

I need more information on the clear tail lamp request for the report. If anyone has anything else they forgot to ask etc. my personal e-mail I can access this weekend is jeffcermak@hotmail.com. I hope everyone got at least some of their questions answered. I will e-mail my report to steve to post within the next day or so. Thank you again, and feel free to keep in touch as will I with any updates I can give.

for those who were curious about my times at prp the other night.
in order
14.49 @ 97.71 - 2.344 60'
13.924 @ 100.08 - 2.235 60'
14.145 @ 98.16 - 2.130 60'
14.057 @ 99.5 - 2.183 60'
nothing spectacular, but i was happy that i was running fairly consistantly. my first run was garbage because i had just driven in and only had about 10 minutes to let my car sit, and also i started slowing down when i hit the sign instead of when i saw the lights flash. hehe.
now i just gotta work on that launch.

I wish I could have made it I was in MD all weekend....Got back lastnight, I did call out to the mitsu R&D on friday and confirmed he worked there...Had a hard time understanding the receptionist because of a lousy cell connection but I believe she said he was the senior director of mitsu r&d which i was like great just wanted to confirm if he was real....she got a chuckle out of that and said yes he is real
Sorry I just dont trust people on the internet when they claim to be someone important, hope all understand.....to bad I couldnt have been there , would have been fun talking to someone from mitsu. usa....
I cant believe tom selleck isnt the real tom selleck...and mondo is not asian, talk about disapointment
Hopefully a meet will be on a time where I will actually be around, every one since I moved here and got my evo has been on dates / times I couldnt make it..... How about a 1-2hr weeknight meet after 6pm? Im always around then

I myself would probably just get a stock 02 ported, durable, less hassle and you can find an extra one pretty cheap to send away so you dont have any downtime....

Im thinking the Ams one Steve! The one that fits without much cutting also . Here is a question to ponder. I just recieved my camber plates. Now should i adjust the stock ecentric bolt to full camber and then use the plates to add positive camber to bring it back to stock settings. or should i just let the 0 on the camber plates be stock setting? I would be able to get more camber out of the plates if i do the first one. Can't really say i've ever really used camber plates before so this is all new to me.
