monaro conversion, nice!! I'm Goatcaptain on there.

I have really been debating a cam package lately. Theres a shop down here thats offering a great deal but i've been spending to much on my other hobby lately (guns).

Thanks. Lots of people have been stocking up on guns and ammo. I probably should too.

Sorry for the hijack meatballs..

Hey JoeyMeatballs,

Did something happen to SAABaroowski? I see your tagline. I didn't see any posts in the forums. If he has passed, my condolences to his family.

Nice build. I have a '93 RX-7, twin turbo, about 300HP. It's been on the back burner ever since I started college. Just got it swapped from auto to manual, installed lower mileage turbos, ACT street/strip clutch, ACT lightweight flywheel, Apexi Power FC computer, Greddy intake and exhaust.

not to be a buzzkill, but for the same money you bought the honda for, and put on all the mods, you could have had a buick GN and spent less on mods and been quicker down the 1/4 mile. true the turning performance isnt there with a buick, but the overall cool factor can't be beat

Most of the pilots I know are interested in some sort of other mechanical machine. Mine is a 03 Cobra convertible 600hp. Kenne Bell 2.4SC, all supporting mods, brand new clutch (I can spin em in 3rd even on a warm day). I need bigger tires. Post up times if you got em. My 1/4 mile is 11.2.
