    Sorry to break of subject guys but I've got a quick question:

    This meet looks like it's getting big (by Hachi standards). I'm assuming we're still meeting at Sonic so I'll be there Thursday night (althought I don't know what time). Just out of curiosity, can we get a quick head count of who is gonna be there?

    Thanks for the time update. That gives me 10 hours to paint two bumpers and wash the car. Easy. Hopefully I can get the wetsanding done too. New paint=no gloss.

    That's three of us so far.

    My car is the same way. It is 1985 and I still have the Zenki grill / eyelids. I found a clean set of Kouki taillights in the junkyard so I have the Kouki rear lights.

    I need a distributor to get the engine to run, mine is bad. no one has a spare to sell or trade or loan? I could do a set of valve covers in candy chrome for a dizzy. Or I guess I could bring the car out on a wrecker. This sucks!

    I have one you can use. I can meet up a little later on tonight. I live in Grayson / Lawrenceville. I actually may have 2 you can try since I don't know the condition of either.

    PM me and we will setup a time / place to meet. Probably 8 or 9pm at the earliest tonight if that's still cool. Maybe the wafflehouse at harbins / 316 or the QT at 29 / 316? QT would be cool and I could get a Rockstar while I'm there

    Let me know!!

    Dooood, Thanx Russ, Hopefully this will make the beast run. I didn't want to go buy a new one from "the Zone" and it not be the problem. We've got fuel going in the rail, coming out the rail, we got spark, It runs fine if I pour gas down the pvc hose, but the injectors are seeing no pulse to fire them. We think it got to be the pick-up in the dizzy. Good lookin' out Russ! Hopefully we'll see ya'll tomorrow night on the "maiden voyage" Sounds like trouble to me! j/k

    Hehe, who knew there were even 12 86s in GA! Good meeting everyone! There were so many people I didn't get a chance to meet the 2 guys in the red 86s. Maybe next time!

    I don't know if we"re going to make this week or not. Still having some kind of electrical problem with the fuel injectors. The distributor from Russ let the car run long enough to check the timing with a light, but we still have a ground issue. hopefully we can solve the problem in time to go to Atlantic Station for the meet. It was cool to meet all of you guys! See you around soon.

    I remember that 280! It was the only other old school car at the Athens meet I went to about a year ago. Damn has it been that long?

    I assume you mean the guy with the Cavalier that was "drifting" 3 Fast 3 Furious style? I loved reading that newspaper story. I'll see you guys there.

    Thanks for directions Russ. I still don't know if we'll be there or not, we're still chasing gremlins in the fuel injection.

    Hey guys, I'm missing a spacer on one of my rod ends.



    I'm trying to decide what I can do to keep my rear end from chattering. Does anyone have a stock replacement (rod end) I can buy? I don't wanna run Saturday w/o a complete spacer [I put a spacer in there but it's not wide enough]. I thought about putting a bushing in there for the time being.

    I'll be at the meet on Thursday. Please help!
