September Chicago 240SX Meet
Well to get one last meet in this year (or at least one last major meet), lets start talking about it.
I had in mind Sunday September 21st, at Miami Woods (the old meeting place). As the time comes we can arrange a BBQ. Hope you can all make it to this meet.

I dislike meets in parking lots of malls, unless you mean somewhere in Busse Woods. That would be a nice place we would have to get I think 40 bucks to reserve the place, I know some spots have benches and shelters which would be good if bad weather occured.
Well if you guys want to do busse woods, then could someone from the are go there look for a nice spot and find out a little more about reservations, I'll pay whoever most of the money back. If nobody can get there, I'll head over there when I pick up my hatch this week. I guess saturday would work, see what kind of response we get on a saturday since we never had one on a saturday. Saturday the 20th? Hopefully the weather is decent, its starting to get real hot during the days now (but I guess I have been out of state for a while).

gilwankel - I will be going to one day on Battle of the Imports.
gmgs14 - I dont even know if I have ever seen you at a meet, you always respond but never make it , hope you can make it out to this one. I guess everything will be finalized once I get over to Busse Woods and pick a spot and put some money down for it. Prolly wedenesday. And James I am free all week to get the dremel.

SEPT 21...Hummm...I might be able to do this one..can't drive it..no enough hrs (frigging 60 hr drive round trip)
How will the temps be..like 45 degree nights? We rarely see below 50 here on the coolest days ever..so I need to prepare. It is shorts and slaps year around here.... I was in Chicago on May 2nd 91 and froze my azz off. Logistics seem close to right for that date..keep me posted please..PM does work again..not full. |

The problem with meeting at a resturant is that then we go outside to look at cars and mill arround in the late afternoon or evening. It could be kind of cold.
In my opinion the format of meeting in the afternoon and going to a resturant for dinner works best. That way we can go in to warm up if its cold. Just need to post it here so the people are aware about it and stick arround (if they are interested in eating). Basicly like McD's at the meet by the lake, but with more people sticking arround. I think its going to be hard to get too many people for a lunch because people like to show up at their own convience and sleep in. Plus there are people driving a long ways to get here. Just my opinion. PS bill that would be awesome if you came up. Meeting people from other areas is always cool. |

gmgs14 - I guess my memory is bad, which person were you? I was there, just dont remember everyone.
On the whole food thing, I would have to agree with Duff, first chat about our cars, put names and cars together, and get some pics. That can be like 12-2, then head over to some place to eat together and talk. Somewhere with a big parkinglot and big tables. If we do it that way then no need to reserve Busse Woods, we could just raid one of the spots there (shouldnt be full that time of the year anyway), then head over to a resteraunt somewhere in schaumburg. Anyone still have a map of Busse Woods? Then we could get a map of which spot to go to. Once the location gets finalized (where to eat can be decided at the meet), and we get a map, I'll update the site, and get Art to send an e-mail to everyone. Bill- Hope you can make it out, don't worry about not showing up in a 240, thats my style .

Theres a Chilis there , have i been away from that area for that long. Anyways ya that sounds good.
About the list I guess I'll grab it and start going through these threads and PMs I've gotten and add up these names. Bill imma put you on the list do you want me to take you off after the meet? Don't want to keep bothering you about meets next year. So Saturday, September 21 @ Miami Woods 12PM-2PM 2 to whatever eat at resteraunt, possible cruise or something afterwords (discuss at lunch). I'll post on other forums, anything I miss post it. gmgs14 - ya now I remember, whatever happened to heather, she never posts anymore EDIT: I lost the list, anyone have it saved?

Keep me on the list..when it gets close..I will make arrangements to make it there if someone wants to pick me up..that is even more cool. I just wanna jam, share some music and car talk...and help if I can with some mod factors. I like your vibes and I NEED to get up there for plenty of reasons.. Getting some Chicago food is always right on. Keep me away from tequila... Beer and boubon is ok...and Grand Marnier. Like to also ride out with some peeps wanting to cruise. I promise to bring some vid of some of my ride arounds. You guys will trip to what goes down around here...outragous. Nest post a pic..I edited and forgot (duh) OK Cool.

On the subject of the Chicago area parts trade...
Hey james you have an extra pedal and m/c from your clip right. Pearlwhite needs that + a clutch line. Not sure if s13 and s14 pedals and m/c's will bolt up in place of each other but its a thought. I dont think the JDM mc is exactly the same as even the USDM s13 MC but i heard somewhere you could use it. It might be cheaper to get hardline bent by a shop than finding it in a junk yard anyways in which case it wouldnt matter. Also, I need the soft line that goes to the slave cylinder. It looks like the previous owner of my 90 cut it to get the tranny off. WTF?!?! Heh so if you have one or see one in a junk yard I'd buy it. |

Sup guys, it's been awhile..
DUFFMAN! Where the hell are you? We (guys from www.ClubFR.net) went drifting last night. You should come check it out since I haven't seen you on the board. BTW, Kid, the guys wanted me to give you a call last night but it was like 1am when we took a coffee break in the "tea party". I didn't know if you were sleeping or downloading your hentai or whatnot.

James - The skirts I was thinking of arent even made by Bomex, I am thinking of the ones on PDMs site. And seeing as how their lip is a bomex rip-off, i thought the skirts were too. The bomex ones seem to flashy for me, just want something to go with the lip (not overshine the lip).
Crab Spirits - Lets see at 1 I think I was done downloa... I mean watching tv . I'm not a late night tea drinker but I guess its time to start . I havent started school yet so I am still up all night anyways.

Hmmmm....
James - I wonder who it was you got them from??? Hee hee. Well, her car was originally red from what I can tell but it was repainted maroonish like the S13 coupes came in. So, I guess a redish lip would be cool.
And for all of you out there....I'm still lookin for a 91-94 stock front bumper w/lip (not the 89-90 lip). I don't know if those who did the Silvia Group Buy have gotten them yet but if anyone has a Front Bumper I'm interested...Pref Grey/Charcoal but any color is fine. Just PM me a price. -Eddy
