ill keep my eyes open... what did it dyno at?

Seth W · 05-23-2006, 05:59 PM

well I think I'm going to pass on the inconel idea, I called about prices and it's a lot, for one 2" u bend with a 4" radius it's $195... I'd think about $1200 all said and done, so I think I'll stick to 321 stanless and ceramic coat it. Other than that nothing real new.

melokiok.... you got mail....
ordered my Rad's today... be about a week... WOOOHOOO!!!! need to get 2 fans now....

mr2greasemonkey · 05-23-2006, 09:01 PM

Ok, people's it's confirmed. June 10th, saturday, dyno event is scheduled. So i suggest you lazy peeps get yr butt's in gear. Dont know how much it's gonna cost, but it's just the workshop group and Jay and his dad. We figured taking the whole day so the more of us there are, the cheaper it'll be. Jay said he'd bring his grill and i figured everyone could bring some food/drinks and we'd make a day of it.

d962r · 05-23-2006, 09:04 PM

well I guess I better get a crank kit or something....

SE-RMR2 · 05-24-2006, 09:42 AM

I will be there for sure...

d962r · 05-24-2006, 10:53 PM

whats going on this weekend? is there any wasy we could pull my motor and trans .. so I can pull the crank to get fixed?

mr2greasemonkey · 05-24-2006, 11:24 PM

this weekend...hmmm....i'm thinkin sethw sure wants to get his car done.....then i really want to get my car done........i guess everyone wants to get their car done..........shoot, i guess if there were MORE PEOPLE HELPING EACH OTHER OUT, things would get done faster........just a suggestion........hehe.

and i'm still making progress on my car...........

suppose to rain this weekend, so looks like a good time to do some work indoors (hint). anyhow post up or call me so i can plan the long weekend. if anyone is really motivated, i'm shooting to do a long friday night.

Oh yeah, by the way, Steve's birthday is thursday, just got an email. His wife wants to surprise him with a party at Hooters over at mall 205. I think the rest of you should come since he's always helped with everyone's projects.

SE-RMR2 · 05-25-2006, 11:58 AM

What time at hooters??? Which one??? Is it today???

Leng

Go Ducks · 05-25-2006, 07:46 PM

Mall 205.

What time? Is it today? If so I can't make it.

I can be there late Friday night or Saturday, whichever will be the most help.

Chris have you found some steelies for me to borrow yet?

Go Ducks · 05-26-2006, 12:06 AM

I offered it to Chris. However, would anyone be interested in taking over my project? Don't really want to get into it, but my wife and I are faced with the decision of having kids now, or possibly not being able to.

So, I'm thinking I might want something a little less involved (and I'd have a lot more help with), like a Mr2 V6 swap.

At any rate, I know some of you guys like 7's and/or are interested in them. I'm not looking to hose anyone, especially someone from the group. So if I can break even I'd be happy. Let me know.

Pentaxis · 05-27-2006, 03:46 PM

Hey Zai. Any word from Paolo yet?

Doge · 05-27-2006, 10:41 PM

Hey Zia hope everything is going good over there... I'm moving up on the 21st so I hope to see you all soon. But in order to get up there I have to finish with this motor. I'm wondering where I should order Toyota parts from? Is there a place online I could go? Thanks for the help. See you all soon!

Go Ducks · 05-28-2006, 12:43 AM

Any Vancouver guys gonna be available 10 AM on Monday?

Gonna be looking at a MR2, and could use another pair of eyes. Let me know.

mr2greasemonkey · 05-28-2006, 01:52 AM

11:44 PM, after going through 2 engines and looking 2 more over since this morning, we've finally got 1 good engine assembled. Definitely an economy rebuild, but it's torqued/plastigaged/gasketed/bearinged/re-ringed.....all for less than $200 buck. Now that's gotta be the cheapest engine we've built all year, LOL.

Workin on my wireing....doing it the hard way, but I cant wait to find the right harness...this POS gotta run soon, haha. I've ordered a switch panel like the one i got for Vince and a master battery disconnect for my car.

Thanks for the help today guys, I'm sure Vince really appreciates the helpin hands.

omega_supreme · 05-28-2006, 02:09 AM

as instructed to do so...Hello Folks!

Crispin · 05-28-2006, 02:16 PM

Sorry guys... I've been working on getting the corolla ready for the Dyno day.. sorry I haven't been around... hopefully I can have it ready for june 10th... not expecting anything spectactular... I'd hope for 95hp and 145 torque at the rear wheels.
