[ArthurS]

Sure. Sounds fun. Will probably have my car back also.

[sperry]

Here's an idea... someone give me a ride to Sac so I can pick up the 914 if I decide to buy it and it's not snowing. ;) :lol:

[sirpdxwrx]

[sperry]

Nice site!

I agree! When are you coming to Reno to swap some Type RA motors into our cars? :lol:

[MattR]

Sunday! hahaha, I have Steve's # guys, so we'll get something together Sunday and give him a call, or even saturday night.

[ArthurS]

So what does everyone wanna do on Sunday? Any ideas?

[sirpdxwrx]

we'll leave the swapping up to Sponaugle, he just put a 2.5l block with the RA heads, his AVO 500 is being rebuilt, so for the time being he's got a FP 20g 6h, and last I heard with very little effort was 377whp (motor wasn't broken in yet)...he and Clark Turner say there's plenty left in it.

Adam Koppel hit just shy of 300WHP last dyno day, he also has a RA (2.0)


I'll let Jeff know what you think of the site.

No Doubt., Steve, you guys have some sick looking cars in your club, I love the track pictures, are those from PIR?

[MikeSTI]

Well, I'll be coming back from the Bay on Saturday. If I buy the car, I'll prolly just leave it at my sister's in Sac till I can find a ride on a nice "warm" sunny day to drive the Porsche back over the pass.

[MikeSTI]

i go to sac usally on Tuesdays. I leave early thou 6:00am if you ever need to catch a ride im there :D

Thanks for the offer, I'll keep it in mind, but I'll prolly try to go on a weekend, or I'll have to take time off work.

[MattR]

I have access to a truck and car trailer too, if that was something you'd like to try.

"powered by Dodge 8) "

Really? That might be an option, but I'm hoping the car will be driveable. I'm just worried about weather. It's an almost 30yr old car w/ a removeable top... it could be friggen COLD driving over the pass!

[MikeSTI]

nahhh put the top down and crank the heatAr lol :lol:

[sperry]

nahhh put the top down and crank the heatAr lol :lol:

Um, who knows if the heater ever works... it's air cooled, which means the heater core is heated by exhaust not water, and could long since been easily removed.

I recently saw a webpage where a guy installed a Subaru XT4 engine in a 914. Another installed a XT6 engine. Have you seen that one???

I've seen some pics of swaps before. Lots of people like going to a flat 6 in the 914, the most popular motor being an air cooled 911 motor, turning their 914 into a 914/6.

Personally I'm really interested in an EJ motor swap. I'd love to see an EJ22 with a turbo in a 914. I figure ~300 rwhp in a 2200 lb car! :twisted: But it will be a TON of work... so, I wouldn't be trying it right away.

[MattR]

So, nevr mind that this thread has veered sharply off topic, does anyone have any ideas for Sunday...How about____________________.

Fill in the blank, I'll have an idea by saturday..

Other than that, i'm out of here at 7am tommorrow, going to Vegas baby, vegas...

See ya all sunday.

[MattR]

Hmmm? Its getting late, I'm guessing we're not doing anything today...No big deal...

[JC]

I'll be in Reno later this evening if you're around matt.

[MattR]

Ok, I'll be around, I'm sure some of the others will be too, maybe we'll come up with something later, but call my cell phone. later

[MikeSTI]

hey matt your the one who said lets meet on Sunday!!! So where's the meet?

[ArthurS]

Where and when everyone?

[BOO]

hey matt your the one who said lets meet on Sunday!!! So where's the meet? :lol: Yeah I have been waiting TOO !!

[sperry]

Where is this mythical Sunday meet, eh?

Hey Matt, is your dock available for some R/C action? I don't think I can handle going anywhere w/ cigarette smoke, since I'm out of asthma medication and in the middle of a week long asthma attack. (So much for "overnight shipping" of my medication... it's been 10 days. :roll:)

[MattR]

geeze! I was on hear this morning and there was no one around...I figured everyone was wiped out...

We can get together tonight still, I'm all for that...

Scott, I'm not sure about racing tonight, but we can try it if people are interested, I'm charged.

Other than that, How about meeting up for dinner and sunday night football somewhere.
New Flowing Tide at South meadows?

We need to decide soon.

To get to the NEW Flowing Tide...From Reno

Take 395 South and Exit on South Meadows Parkway
Go Left (East)
its in the first shopping center on your left, in the corner. Look for a Wells Fargo bank on the corner. You can't miss it.

We had a great time, took I-5 to Red Bluff cut across 36 to 89 and hit Feather River Canyon...even on vacation I hit the twisties...all the way down to South Lake and hwy 50. Even went out to Placerville for an In-N-Out Burger, nice drive through the mountains up above Tahoe airport and stuff.

I saw a modded 2002 or 03 WRB sedan w/ fmic and aftermkt. headlights out that way on the return to Lake Tahoe.

Well I'll keep in touch with you guys, and mabye next time when I head down we can get together, I come down about 2 times a year to see g/fs family.

I totally dig it... it's fitting for the car, plus I'm a huge Top Gun fan, and that was my squadron when I went to Space Camp... ;)

[tysonK]

whoa!

Now I know someone who went to space camp.

[MattR]

I was gonna go to Space Camp but I broke my leg instead. ( I believe I remember your space camp stories Scott, very cool)

Why Scott no astronaut? hahaha.

[AtomicLabMonkey]

Ok now Laura just read these last few posts and wants to hear Scott's Space Camp stories (GD I've heard those stories a thousand times.. but it's still pretty cool :lol: ) next time we hang out.

[MattR]

Make him tell you the "flute" story...it starts out...

" This one time, at Space Camp.."

[BOO]

OK now I too want to hear your stories... lol

[sperry]

Chirst... there are Space Camp stories, but they'd really only be entertaining if we were all still in Junior High. :roll:

And FTR, I didn't do "Space Camp" like you've seen in the movie, I did "Aviation Challenge: Mach II": http://www.spacecamp.com/spacecamp/request?type=article&view=ind&id=aviationindex

It was basically Boy Scouts meets a Flight Simulator... so yeah, I was in 8th grader heaven for a whole 5 days. We made fun of all the Space Camp kids... cuz we got to do better stuff like ride zip-lines and screw around in the SAC B-52 simulator. And then, since our councellor was cool, we snuck into the Space Camp facility and did all their stuff too. :P

[dknv]

Oh, I've gotta hear this -- I used to play flute.
