Cool. Yeah, I've looked all over the net and e-mailed every company that sells that wheel. Hopefully someone will have it, my car looks naked without those wheels!!!

Are we talking 11 at night or in the afternoon?

Like I said I'll be at an autox in Laurens most of the day, and there's an RX-7 meet in Columbia once I get back into town that evening, but hell, if we're talking 11 at night, I'll roll out there. :)

Well, looks like I'll have to wait another week or so for my wheel since I can't find anyone that has one in stock :( Oh well, if it weren't for idiots that drop stuff out of thier trucks onto the highway, my wheel would have never been damaged!!!!!!!!!

well, well, the group gets bigger. The more, the merrier!! As for the 15" wheels with hubcaps on an SE, yeah, that does make me feel better about rollin on the stock SE wheels. I still think my car looks naked without my Konigs :( Just my luck that I have the 1 wheel that nobody has in stock!!

That would be awesome if you could come. Sounds like you got a sleeper there. Who else is running a sr20 or KAT

Have you found somebody to finally make a supercharger for the KA. I was thinking about running one but heard you had to make it custom.

Hopefully done in June and JulyKA with 30-60K milesREdone with forged pistons, rods, valves and whatever else I can forge.HotShot HeadersAEM cold intake-really wish AEM made cam gears and stuff for our carsTHese are just the main parts.

Then around 2 to 5k miles laterGreddy Turbo kit whoohahhaa

Well, actually I can make a kit. I plan on doing it as soon as I can get up some money. I want to use a Procharger head unit, do all of the rest myself. Placing the supercharger is the hardest part. I want to place it so that the A/C and other accessories don't have to be omited, although, one of them may have to be moved. I just wonder how many people would want a kit. I'd be more than happy to sell kits after mine is completed.

hmmm, I might just get you to do that. I would have to see how yours does before I go with it. Not saying you cant do a kit, just saying I want to know if the turbo would be better or not.I know difference with turbo lag and with the super you dont have to worry about that, but then that adds something else to the crank. I dont know.

losing to cavaliers????? what the??? Are you running on all 4 cylinders?? I'm out here beating GSTs, 5.0 liter Mustangs that have IHE and 3.73 gears, new Civic Si with IHE, CRX with B16 swap, hell, I even raced a beautiful fully restored 69 Camaro on the highway and sat right beside him. (I don't think he was too happy about that) I havn't ran my car since I got the Centerforce clutch, header, and bumped up the timing. Hope to run it tomorrow though. Last time I ran, I had a 2.12 60' with a 10.12 in the 1/8 with my clutch slipping like crazy!!! I mean, the clutch was to the rivets when I pulled it out the following week. I know the car will run low 9's. Anyhoo, I hope that I can make it down there this weekend, turns out that I have alot of work to do. I'm gonna bust my *** so that I can come saturday though!!!

I hope you can come Saturday. far as I can tell, I still got some power, but when I floor it it acts like its building power then releasing, if that makes any sense. Seems like it has the power then loses' it. Yeah the guy in the rx7 though he was awesome, I was thinkin the whole time. Just wait till I get my new engine. It used to be fast when I first got it like whoever had it made it seem like it ran great so someone would buy it with so many miles being on it. 218K now

I should be able to come. I did get to run tonight......but only 1 time before the staging lanes were closed. The track got messed up 2 times and I waited over an hour before being able to run. The track was cold and these old tires on my stock wheels didn't hook at all. I managed a 10.08 with a 2.28 60'. That's just horrible. My brother ran a 9.69 with his 94 Mustang GT. We raced on the way home a few times. It was very close, he never could pass me. Anyhoo, I'm thinking about buying another head and some 91 cams, doing a port job and swapping the head out. It's gotta be good for a few ponies.

too bad you couldnt race, I cant wait to be able to get out there. I got a friend with a SVT Focus, yes a focus. I was really surprised. He beat everyone even the 240. He said the 240 was running a turbo. Not to sure on that but his car is pretty fast, got tons of mods from the dealership on it. AEM intake, and Flowmaster exhaust to name just 2.

Yeah, those SVTs are pretty quick. They aren't much on top end though, I raced one that had quite a few mods on the highway and I just killed him. He said the car ran 9.40's in the 1/8 but, admitted his top end sucked.

Anyway, unfortunatly, I won't be able to attend tomorrow. I have way too much work to do and it all has to be done by Monday. I can't stand it when stuf like this happens, but, I gotta make that money. Hope you guys have fun!!!
