I don't know how many of you this appeals to, but I know at least with my old car (1994 Ford Taurus SHO,) there was a local club called TSHOC that had meets maybe once a month and we'd sometimes have up to 30 SHOs come out and just hang out, go get some lunch, that kind of thing...we met up some at the Portsmouth hang out when it was still active too. Well I tried to go out to Chimney Hill tonight to see how it was, and I ended up sitting on the rear bumper of my car with three friends eating McDonald's and almost crying to myself...the police redirected us towards the old Ames on the Boulevard and rather than stay with the ricers I walked across the street to the Porsche dealership and went inside and talked to the security officer for two hours about Porsches. It just seems like the local scene is incredibly depressing and utterly lacking in maturity, and I'd love to see some of us get together once a week or month or something, just to be able to hang out and talk about the cars, help each other out with problems we've been having, that kind of stuff. From what I've seen of local people on the boards everyone seems much more intelligent and mature than anyone out at Ricer Hill, and I think Fuddrucker's or something on a Saturday would be a crapload more fun than anything the local scene has going on. Shoot, if there's interest maybe we can have a day where all of us go to the track a couple times a year? Just shooting out some ideas, but if you're interested in meeting up post here and lets see the interest!

How many more people from Hampton Roads are on here, just out of curiosity? Seems like there may be a good number of them.And for the record, I check my email quite often 90% of the time. The weekend is always a hit or miss time, though..

The lower engine harness is missing, so I figure we'll be taking turns hardwiring that.

That makes a nigga appreciate the RB wiring. All we're doing is making the KA lower harness work with the RB and some other odds and ends that we have guides/first-hand know how for. Any help would be gret, Caz. I'm leaving you the address on AIM.

That, and a few other things. Not sure if you took them off cause ya needed em or what, but it was also missing the top cover, the shifter, snap rings, lower dust cover, and the springs on the side the limit shifter play. Luckily, I had a junked manual transmission for *most* of that..I can't really complain since it was at a discounted $20 price :DIf you had those springs and don't need them though, I could still use em. If not, I'll have to steal them from Rob or a junkyard if I can actually find a manual 240 not stripped of everything 5 speed.

That wiring looks fun..

i can search around for the springs, though i doubt it'll do any good. way too much **** sitting around.

didn't realize i still have the shifter, but i need the snap ring thats on it, so i'll have to go looking for it now

Nah, just needed the spring, and possibly the lower dust cover that actually sits over the top of the transmission. Have a shifter, snap rings and so on.

Your manliness not cutting it eh Rob? :D

No, my manliness isn't cutting it. That or the WD-40 isn't working.
