: *Official* NE Ohio meet and discussion area
MEGATRON X 07-10-2011, 06:24 PM Hey everyone, I have decided to start this thread to help our growing group of members in the North East Ohio area stay in touch and help manage and notify each other of shows meets etc.. also if your in the area and you want to get to know some fellow X owners, don't be shy and chime in!
This Thursday how does a meet sound, personally I would like to get away from the local car club meet we have gone to lately and meet in a location and time that works out for everyone.. Jones 525 and I recommend the Starbucks and Applebees in Garfield Heights, and talking to DarkRider he had the idea of Panini's in Solon.. which I am also down with.
Lets discuss
DarkRider 07-10-2011, 10:05 PM I'm in. Just let me know where
gottf257 07-10-2011, 10:11 PM I go where im told!
DarkRider 07-10-2011, 11:05 PM That's a good little 9 driver!
gottf257 07-11-2011, 02:06 AM lol /cowers
whitecomet 07-11-2011, 02:34 AM I might be able to depends on how the work week plays out.
DarkRider 07-11-2011, 02:51 AM White comet, where you at the forced4's meet last Thursday?
legendary_wraps 07-11-2011, 03:23 AM Solon??? thats a freakin haul for me....
I vote North Canton.... QSL, Starbucks, and a ton of other stuff within 2 mins of each other...
DarkRider 07-11-2011, 04:15 AM make a list and we can vote on it! Geez
legendary_wraps 07-11-2011, 09:42 PM there... I voted.....
DarkRider 07-11-2011, 09:51 PM Can we plan this for next Thursday? I have a friend moving to Florida that I've got plans with.
DarkRider 07-11-2011, 09:52 PM Unless we choose a different day? Wednesday maybe?
legendary_wraps 07-11-2011, 10:12 PM Unless we choose a different day? Wednesday maybe?
wednesdays are usually good for me... I'm also a pretty boring guy... meeting on Fridays with spice my boring life up a bit... :godance:
DarkRider 07-11-2011, 10:33 PM I'm pretty open to other days as well. I'd like to plan for a mini meet your way Jim later this month when I schedule my venture shield with u. Ordered doctor color chip last night. Once it's on, detailer, then u.
jones525 07-11-2011, 11:20 PM /soapbox
I think the more people we have the harder it will be to please everybody. So we could pick a day and stick with it. If you can make it great, if not, we'll look forward to seeing you next time. Thurs / Fri would probably be best for most of us....
Here is my humble opinion on each proposed location...
Hoggy's / QSAL - Not so much.
Panini's Solon - Great place, parking is really bad. Small lot, lots of body panel denting madness.
Starbucks / Applebees Garbage Hts. - Tucked out of the way. Amazing parking, amazing view, Chipotle...
QSL / N. Canton - Kinda far, but Legendary does hump it up to Valley View. I proposed Fairlawn which is a fairly equal drive for all of us. Tres' Portrellos Senoir's!
soapbox/
DarkRider 07-11-2011, 11:24 PM I think u do give a eff. We are only 6 guys. No one else like us. We'll be ok.
MEGATRON X 07-12-2011, 03:51 AM Thursday doesn't work too well for me.. I'm going to the dealer to have them replace my cv joint boot... I would be down for a friday meet this week.. lets do QSL in North Canton different feel, drive isn't too horrible for most of us, who's up for this?
DarkRider 07-12-2011, 04:04 AM So Friday in N. Canton? Whose all going?
MEGATRON X 07-12-2011, 04:15 AM alright guys who ever wants to go friday, reply so I can add you to the list on page one
whitecomet 07-12-2011, 05:00 AM White comet, where you at the forced4's meet last Thursday?
no did not know there was a meeting.
DarkRider 07-12-2011, 01:12 PM i'm in
legendary_wraps 07-12-2011, 01:47 PM Friday.... I'm in 6ish?
errr.... changing to a maybe.... we'll see what the wife says... sometimes I forget I'm married...
I saw a blue X in Brunswick at Taco Hell the other day. Anyone know who it is? Looked to be heading to the Hinckley area, but not sure where he went.
MEGATRON X 07-12-2011, 11:02 PM Friday.... I'm in 6ish?
errr.... changing to a maybe.... we'll see what the wife says... sometimes I forget I'm married...
Haha okay, let us know ahead of time because if your out, there isn't much sense in going all the way to canton lol
My vote would be to rotate the thing around to different locations. Everyone can have a pick of the destination. That way we all vary drive times, food, etc etc.
DarkRider 07-12-2011, 11:50 PM thats already the plan darren. We chose north canton this week so jim doesnt cry! most of us were just in dover 3 weeks ago for a meet with him! He must have forgot that. :innocent:
DarkRider 07-12-2011, 11:50 PM jim, my wife is riding down on friday with me. Just bring yours.
OH, I see grasshoppa. Maybe the wife and kids with me?!!!! You in RYAN P? HAHA.
I will see, my kid just got hit in the face with a baseball bat and needed 7 stitches.
DarkRider 07-12-2011, 11:55 PM wowza. hope he's alright. Keep in mind with the kids that language may not always be kid friendly
I will suggest a Saturday night at my local cruise in Brunswick when it is my turn. We can all roll in together, they won't know what hit them. 90% muscle cars. Some newer stuff. An occasional Subie or Honda. Fat Bobs Pizza is there, or we can roll down to Paninis after an hour or two.
I will see about this week as mentioned.
wowza. hope he's alright. Keep in mind with the kids that language may not always be kid friendly
True that on the language.
I hope he will be fine, just the scar is the main concern. Should have never happened. It was at his last game of the season. BLOOD BATH.
DarkRider 07-12-2011, 11:58 PM sounds good. i'm down for whatever.
DarkRider 07-13-2011, 12:00 AM i do think it would be funny to roll into a classic/muscle car event and pop our hoods. Knowing that most of us can hang with them. With the exception of jordan because he's only putting down 190awhp!
he may beat a stock civic thats all riced out :fail:

Hardy har har har! You so funny
legendary_wraps 07-13-2011, 01:46 AM Hardy har har har! You so funny
Good stuff!!!
whitecomet 07-13-2011, 02:16 AM And we should have mad jem strikes on our cars as well as other things that make muscle car guys hate the ricer crowd more than they already
do. To them our car is a great 15snail second pos without a cat.
I am a muscle car guy and have a few.
The mentality on the ricer crowd is cheap crap that looks like hell and they think they are fast based on the loudness of the fart can.
It has nothing to do with speed or power since most muscle car guys never get on it at all since they are too old now to have the reflexes to deal with getting squirrely.

We should all do a CBRD run! (Pull a coil pack) :neener: Jordan, I'll bring a razor blade so you can remove that CBRD sticker from your window...
P.S. I'm out for Friday. Roadtrip to decide on my next MC... Michigan to Raliegh NC.
Either a: Bimota Tesi or a MV Agusta Brutale 1090rr to keep the Duc comapny...
Looking forward to shooting the sheeayt at the next meeting...
gottf257 07-13-2011, 04:06 AM i might be in for friday, had dinner planned will see if it goes through. looks like the evo will be out of commision for a while though, pretty sure the tc is shot :( after talking to shep its looking like a stage 2 tc with quaife or wavetrac lsd and stage 2 trans with evo 8 3/4th. but hey i can drive the goat wherever lol
DarkRider 07-13-2011, 12:10 PM its sounding like friday may be a bust
gottf257 07-13-2011, 01:34 PM tonight/thurs works a lot better for me this week. can do whatever next week

legendary_wraps 07-13-2011, 04:45 PM I have been in love with the MV for years.... I want the F1.... quad undertail pipes... pure sex...
CBRDSpeedfactory 07-13-2011, 05:10 PM why are we mentioned in this thread? lol
cb
MEGATRON X 07-13-2011, 05:54 PM Hey Chad, the reason is that we went to a dyno day and a stock evo threw down 240hp and for some reason my car was 190 hp granted everyone's numbers were off that day, and virtual dyno shows me about the numbers that we pulled on your dyno before but they are very low compared to people on Here with similar mods. What would you say the reason for that is?
jones525 07-13-2011, 10:36 PM I have been in love with the MV for years.... I want the F1.... quad undertail pipes... pure sex...
Went with the MV :godance:
legendary_wraps 07-14-2011, 02:24 AM Anyone coming Friday???
legendary_wraps 07-14-2011, 02:26 AM why are we mentioned in this thread? lol
cb
We were all busting Jordans balls because he dynoed 190 whp and Jerry went 240 with his stock unit....
gottf257 07-14-2011, 04:13 PM planning a trip to shep next week if anyone wants to tag along
MEGATRON X 07-14-2011, 04:27 PM looks like i may be out friday, took my car to the dealer because of my inner cv joint boot being ripped, and come to find out they voided my warranty on the count that my vehicle is lowered.. The dealer was on my side but mitsu corporate wouldnt budge, also corperate also told me that my powertrain warranty is now gone as well... what douche bags, here goes another 300 bucks

I man, sorry to hear that. Almost all dealerships are the same so i kinda figured this would happen. Has it start to make any noise when turning at slow speeds? Are you having the dealership fixing it still?
Sorry about not having anytime to install your 3 port. I've been extremely busy at work. All i did yesterday after work is sleep haha. We'll get it taken care of next week.
Take it to SHEP, they are way cheaper.
DarkRider 07-14-2011, 06:56 PM Depends on the day and the duration.

Sorry to hear, same thing i got with my transfer case. the area rep wanted to help but corporate gave me the finger
as to my trip to shep, ill let you know when he gets back to me
DarkRider 07-15-2011, 12:05 AM I'm thinking about heading over to superfly on Sunday. Not 100% sure yet. Anyone interested?
legendary_wraps 07-15-2011, 12:34 AM planning a trip to shep next week if anyone wants to tag along
I'm 15 mins from sheps.... I could meet you guys there.... we could hit buffalo wild wings...
MEGATRON X 07-15-2011, 01:06 AM If I get my car back I would possibly go down to superfly with you..
legendary_wraps 07-15-2011, 01:14 AM that sucks Jordan.... lowering a car has no bearing on a junk CV joint....
DarkRider 07-15-2011, 02:16 AM To my knowledge it is a larger version of forced4's. Similar crowd but open to all vehicles.
A few of my neighbors are headed down so I may roll with them. Jordan may go to. If ur interested I'll try to get u some info. It's somewhere in Akron.
Sun, July 17, 4:30pm – 10:30pm
Where2100 Roming Rd. Akron, Ohio 44313
DarkRider 07-15-2011, 02:34 AM Thats it.

The dealer was on my side but mitsu corporate wouldnt budge, also corperate also told me that my powertrain warranty is now gone as well... what douche bags, here goes another 300 bucks
No Powertrain Warranty on an MR... Thats terrible... So how did it happen? The dealer called the rep for approval on the boot, he showed up and voided?
DarkRider 07-15-2011, 02:45 AM They asked about mods. Dealership said it was lowered. They said to say good bye to warranty.
MEGATRON X 07-15-2011, 02:49 AM No Powertrain Warranty on an MR... Thats terrible... So how did it happen? The dealer called the rep for approval on the boot, he showed up and voided?
yup they seem to be ruthless, the powertrain warranty isn't voided officially, but if I had any issues im sure they wouldnt get fixed. f*ck mitsubishi, hell i have 18000 miles on my car and a cv joint boot rips, of course its because i lowered my car, I wonder how they came to that conclusion.. I hate the fact that your treated like a criminal if you decide to make the car your own, and some cheap ass part mitsu put on goes bad prematurely and they blame it all on me.. :wtfsign:
/end rant
Be glad you stay stock Jones!!
MEGATRON X 07-15-2011, 02:51 AM Jim and Matt, are you two still meeting down in canton tomorrow? I will try my best to swing by if I get my car, if not maybe I'll drive something else down..
I am sure I am long since voided. The only killer would be a blown engine. Other than that, I am prepared to accept the consequences. Of course, everyone says I baby my car.
Jim and Matt, are you two still meeting down in canton tomorrow? I will try my best to swing by if I get my car, if not maybe I'll drive something else down..
I am pretty sure this is off.
jones525 07-15-2011, 02:58 AM Be glad you stay stock Jones!!
I think the X is an impressive package as-is. Yes, it could use improvements here and there, but for now just call me Stocky McStockerson. I gots no time for dealer BS... My 15K is coming up, anxious to see how that goes.
P.S. Jordan, I bet that even if you were completely stock and had only wheel spacers you'd still have been voided...
You need to drive my car with the mods and new clutch. Yours will seem snail like. Of course, mine will feel snail like compared to the BRUTALE.........AWESOME buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DarkRider 07-15-2011, 03:05 AM I'm out for tomorrow. Will probably go Sunday to superfly.
gottf257 07-15-2011, 03:31 AM doesnt hurt to try another dealer too jordan. worked sometimes in florida, found that some dealers just dont want to deal with explaining the warranty work to corporate. no guarantees though :(
legendary_wraps 07-15-2011, 03:32 AM I'm out for Sunday....
I'm out for Sunday....
Me too, we have the baseball skills competition.
jones525 07-15-2011, 01:33 PM doesnt hurt to try another dealer too jordan. worked sometimes in florida, found that some dealers just dont want to deal with explaining the warranty work to corporate. no guarantees though :(
Again, no warranty on an MR. No warranty for the next 45k miles on a tranny that has no replacement parts. I would persue an aftermarket warranty STAT!
jones525 07-15-2011, 01:46 PM SHEP can fix it cheap.
You cant get parts. If a $15 trans temp sensor fails, the protocol is to replace the whole trans for 10k. You cannot buy parts for the SST from Mitsu, or anyone else. Yes used parts are to be had, but at questionable quality. This in my opinion is the Achilles heel of the X MR.
I did not know that. So you can't get anything from the supplier either. Seems stupid to me.
DarkRider 07-16-2011, 12:02 PM SSP is said to have started a parts line and there are rumors to this trans being repairable now.
jones525 07-16-2011, 01:42 PM SSP is said to have started a parts line and there are rumors to this trans being repairable now.
A call to my Mitsubushi delaer is in order... I would feel much better if the MR trans was a serviceable unit...
DarkRider 07-16-2011, 01:53 PM Now what your dealer will tell you and what can really be done are two separate things. I would email ssp as well since they are the ones that supposedly pioneered this. We both know that mitsu will not recognize the pioneering effort of the aftermarket world. This is evident with Jordan loosing his warranty for upgrading his suspension.
In my opinion mitsu corporate should do what southcoast mitsu in Cali did and just offer an approved aftermarket parts and allow dealerships to install and tune. I
ImAgine the additional revenue they would receive! The vendors would be able to supply a larger number of parts, thus making them more money. Lastly, our warranties wouldn't be garbage since their tech are installing and tuning.
DarkRider 07-17-2011, 04:28 AM Headed to superfly in Akron tomorrow. Anyone else?
MEGATRON X 07-17-2011, 04:28 AM CV Joint boot is fixed 260 bucks later, only problem is now my alignment is off! Been holding my steering wheel to the left to go straight for two days now, getting realigned from NTB in Mayfield since I bought a 3 year plan from them.. if anyone wants to know my camber specs they are -2.0 fronts -1.0 rears with 0 toe around
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 04:21 AM Anyone for f4's Thursday?
MEGATRON X 07-18-2011, 04:27 AM I'm down.. if we end up not feeling the crowd we can just drive to qsl and all just do our own thing.
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 04:33 AM That's fine too.
gottf257 07-18-2011, 01:24 PM ill be there
jones525 07-18-2011, 10:17 PM I'm down.. if we end up not feeling the crowd we can just drive to qsl and all just do our own thing.
That'll send a message!
legendary_wraps 07-18-2011, 10:57 PM That'll send a message!
hell yes it will......
I might be down.... I have final dyno tuning this week. If it isn't Thursday, I should make it....
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 10:59 PM Jim, Are u available to wrap my Evo frday or Saturday? I need to get it detailed first, but would like to do this within the next 2 weeks
legendary_wraps 07-18-2011, 11:04 PM you doing venture shield? I think we are doing a 2012 GTR Thursday or Friday, so that should work. Let me get back to you later...
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 11:06 PM Venture shield, check. Friday or Saturday work best for me. Need to find a good detailer first.
legendary_wraps 07-18-2011, 11:09 PM Venture shield, check. Friday or Saturday work best for me. Need to find a good detailer first.
actually, as long as it is somewhat clean, we clay bar the whole front end before install.
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 11:11 PM Does the clay bar eliminate the swirl in the paint?
legendary_wraps 07-18-2011, 11:17 PM Does the clay bar eliminate the swirl in the paint?
you shouldn't see any slight swirl scratches under the film.... but if it makes you feel better, get it detailed...
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 11:18 PM Ok. Just let me know which day. What r ur thoughts on doing the entire hood?
legendary_wraps 07-18-2011, 11:29 PM Ok. Just let me know which day. What r ur thoughts on doing the entire hood?
I stock 24" material, so doing the entire hood would require a seam. It's not necessary.
I can get 48" material to cover hoods, but we usually order pieces in on an as needed basis. A roll of 48" venture shield is BIG $$$$$$$
DarkRider 07-18-2011, 11:31 PM Ok. I was just curious
MEGATRON X 07-19-2011, 06:19 AM Jim, if you come up thursday could you bring the rexpeed pillar pod? I hope I can end up making it work and not look like trash
How was SUPERFLY? What sort of crowd, how many cars, etc.?
DarkRider 07-19-2011, 05:26 PM superfly was ok. the crowd was a mix of F4's guys, rice, and a dash of hillbilly. It was ok to watch them tear around on their small auto-x course, but got boring real quick. If there was a restaraunt at the local it woulda been better. IMO: forced4's is a better car event than superfly.
DarkRider 07-19-2011, 05:27 PM jim, let me know which day today so i can plan for it
When is it my turn to pick?
DarkRider 07-19-2011, 07:47 PM It's not a matter of who gets to pick and choose an event. If u wanna do something just post up and see who wants to attend. Several expressed doing the same day every other week.
Weekends are a tough plan unless it's posted weeks in advance.
I do something every Saturday, by myself, so yeah, weekends may not work out for all you single guys or married guys with no kids. With kids, those days work best.
DarkRider 07-19-2011, 08:23 PM If u got something, post it up.
legendary_wraps 07-20-2011, 04:43 PM I wont be there Thursday..... 98 degrees.... air conditioning weather...

jones525 07-21-2011, 01:33 AM Whose still going tomorrow?
I'll be parking over at QSAL. No sense in parking at the Hogg and leaving my car unattended.
gottf257 07-21-2011, 03:18 AM Whose still going tomorrow?
ill be there in the goat. 6 at qsl?
DarkRider 07-21-2011, 03:56 AM Sounds good. See u guys there
MEGATRON X 07-21-2011, 04:14 AM I should be there as well qsl it is
DarkRider 07-21-2011, 02:49 PM So we're parking at the qsl at 6? R we gonna head over to the f4's at all?
gottf257 07-21-2011, 04:34 PM So we're parking at the qsl at 6? R we gonna head over to the f4's at all?
doesnt matter to me. i dont mind parking either place/doing either
MEGATRON X 07-21-2011, 07:39 PM hey guys i'm out for today sorry for the late notice, i should be able to do something next week.
legendary_wraps 07-22-2011, 03:15 AM still effen hot out.... BTW.... remember the evo 8 spoiler discussion we had....
I bought one today....
DarkRider 07-22-2011, 03:17 AM New? Used? Good price? When are u installing?
MEGATRON X 07-22-2011, 03:30 AM did anyone end up going to forced 4s/ qsl tonight? sorry guys that I had to bail last minute.
legendary_wraps 07-22-2011, 03:35 AM New? Used? Good price? When are u installing?

gottf257 07-22-2011, 03:39 AM used, but barely.... got it for a steal. Pick up saturday, then out for paint...
damn nice, 8 is the way to go for the full carbon
did anyone end up going to forced 4s/ qsl tonight? sorry guys that I had to bail last minute.
was me matt and jerry. was a nice night but the meet seemed pretty empty
DarkRider 07-22-2011, 03:44 AM Jim, shoot me a price for your driver side fog light mesh!
gottf257 07-25-2011, 09:37 PM talked to shep, going to try to go thursday around 1-2 depending on his schedule
DarkRider 07-26-2011, 02:54 AM I'd be down, but I'm supposed to be getting my venture shield from legendary.
gottf257 07-26-2011, 03:36 AM think he said his shop is nearby, maybe ill stop by on my way down/back
Ryan P 07-27-2011, 12:36 PM Somehow I missed this thread. I haven't been able to do shit these past couple months but it looks like my schedule might be clearing up. So what's new, gentlemen?
DarkRider 07-27-2011, 12:39 PM Venture shield and retune for me Ryan. Not sure much will pan out for this Thursday, but we should plan to meet up next Thursday.
Any interest in this? Cannonball on the way down?LOL
http://www.importfaceoff.net/columbus.htm
DarkRider 07-28-2011, 08:11 PM Sounds fun and I'd be down but my wife already has me locked down with family plans.
Anyone down for dsm day at buschur? August 20th
Ryan P 07-28-2011, 10:11 PM I'm definitely down for the DSM shoot out. I've gone since the late 90's! Weather depending, I'll most likely go on the 21st though. The drag racing is most fun to watch....or participate in if u want to break your car.
DarkRider 07-29-2011, 12:38 AM i'm probably only in for the 20th. i'm not sure but i thought i heard there will be auto cross on the 20th. can anyone verify and respond.
DarkRider 07-29-2011, 12:39 AM can we also get rid of that stupid ass poll at the top of this thread???
gottf257 07-29-2011, 03:42 AM im totally down for the shootout. sounds like the first day is car show/ auto cross and second day is the drag racing. i wouldnt mind going to both, but def want to see the drag racing. shep is going to be running the talon :godance:

Clipse3GT 07-29-2011, 03:50 AM I'd be done to do down to the shoot out as well. :)

I remember seeing Shep run his first 9 second 1/4 at the shootout in his Talon. It was epic, everyone high fived and cheered. :bowlol: To think where that car has gone since then.
Spoolin11 07-29-2011, 12:28 PM I will be coming up from Columbus.
Clipse3GT, would it be possible to tweak my tune if I get the FP wastegate actuator?

that must have been awesome. haven't been to one yet was always back at school by the time it hit. If you guys wanted to meet up I would be down for it, but sadly its looking like my car will be at sheps for the shootout
DarkRider 07-30-2011, 02:48 AM Lots of interest. How many are in for Saturday? Sunday? Or both?
Post up which day or both.
Then we can find a meet up point and roll in together!
gottf257 07-30-2011, 04:51 PM looks like a dyno day on friday at buschur maybe too. im down for all 3 or whichever you guys want to go to.

On another note, is anyone going to the Indy race at Mid Ohio this weekend? I'm heading down on race day (Sunday).

I was going to wait and go to the Rolex series in September. Used to go to the Rolex 24 every year when at school, really love that class. I saw Indy in Tampa a couple years back though and its certainly worth seeing too
legendary_wraps 08-02-2011, 02:16 AM I think I'm down for Friday, sat, Sunday
Ryan P 08-03-2011, 04:45 PM I'm now going to the shootout on Saturday only. Let's meet up and roll together. Should be a great time.
DarkRider 08-03-2011, 10:03 PM It looks like Saturday is going to be the day for most of us. Any suggestions on a merit point? Most of will be coming from the east.
gottf257 08-03-2011, 11:50 PM we doing anything tomorrow?
What time does this thing start on Saturday, or what time is everyone planning on going?
DarkRider 08-04-2011, 01:59 AM Not sure on time and meeting places. If it were up to me we'd meet at my house, but I live the farthest away!
Well, I am on the way as you recall. I work in the morning though, so I can't go much before about 12:00 to 12:30.
DarkRider 08-04-2011, 03:14 AM Id like to be there when it starts.

Me too. Think it gets pretty crowded

I'd head out if people wanted to
The car show is at NORWALK now, nothing in Wakeman at all. Plenty of room, in fact it will seem deserted.
Ryan P 08-04-2011, 06:45 PM The car show is at NORWALK now, nothing in Wakeman at all. Plenty of room, in fact it will seem deserted.
Yeah, there should be plenty of space. Norwalk can handle much larger crowds than a DSM meet.
I found out that my daughters first soccer game of the season is that Saturday, so I'm not sure what the hell is going on now. Shit. :(
DarkRider 08-08-2011, 03:28 PM Anyone up for the lube Thursday?
MEGATRON X 08-08-2011, 09:44 PM I should be able to make it, sorry I haven't been around lately, been pretty busy getting everything to move into my new apartment.

gottf257 08-13-2011, 01:55 AM looks like the way for me is route 20 all the way, but will meet up anywhere people want to
DarkRider 08-13-2011, 03:49 PM If you plan on heading to dsm day and your from the east side of cleveland we are meeting at the Starbucks in Garfield Hts. (9791 Vista Way, Garfield Heights, OH 44125) at 8am saturday the 20th.
I will have a west side meet up point shortly for those coming from the west and south.
DarkRider 08-16-2011, 03:10 AM Looks like we've got about 8-10 guys convoying in. Still waiting to hear from Jim.
legendary_wraps 08-17-2011, 12:35 AM I'm holding out..... car is acting up a little and hoping my fluids get here before saturday so I can even drive the car....
gottf257 08-17-2011, 05:00 AM i wont be able to do friday anymore, but will be going both saturday and sunday for sure. can also do qsl thursday if people wanted to

Ryan P 08-27-2011, 03:01 PM Oil change tuesday and a tune by clipse3gt wednesday evening! Cant wait to see what he can do compared to my dyno tune. :yay:
Let us know how it goes!
MEGATRON X 09-01-2011, 03:14 PM we had to reschedule for tonight, so hopefully we wont have any rain and all goes well!... on a side note, damn this thread has all but died lol so im bringing it back.. Lets plan a meet somewhere of all us in the area, buschur shootout was a good showing, but lets get everyone this time!
MEGATRON X 09-01-2011, 03:24 PM also heres a vid from MAP at the buschur shootout, clipse3gt, darkrider, spoolin11, me and possibly ryan p's evos are in the video at the end, ryan p may have left and this may be the other black evo parked next to me with the evo soul lip but i cant really tell.
http://youtu.be/5wRdRWN7sxc
oh yeah mike's gto is hidden in there somewhere as well!
Spoolin11 09-01-2011, 07:06 PM Good luck evoxxx19! I am sure you will be pleased.
As for a meet, I know it’s a bit of a drive for you NE Ohio guys but there is a Dyno day at Slowmotion Motorsports on September 25. http://www.slowmotionmotorsports.com/
Their shop is not far off I-71 and is about 25 miles north of Downtown Columbus which would cut down the drive time.
I heard the one in July was actually pretty good, decent amount of very respectable. I am hoping for the same on September 25.
I will also be throwing my car on their DynaPack to get some nice high numbers from my Clipse3GT tune!
Let me know if any of you guys are interested.
~Ryan
MEGATRON X 09-01-2011, 10:42 PM about two hours from me, not horrible i may be in as well
gottf257 09-02-2011, 02:38 AM oh yeah mike's gto is hidden in there somewhere as well!
*flex*
as for the 25th, i'd be down. always like going to columbus
we had to reschedule for tonight, so hopefully we wont have any rain and all goes well!
Well, did you blow it up or what? Figured you would have given an update.
MEGATRON X 09-02-2011, 08:17 PM Finally bit the bullet and went away from my pro tune and went with a road tune from Clipse and wouldnt look back. So far I am very happy with the tune, Clipse told me that virtual dyno doesn't work the greatest with mr's but here are the numbers anyway, 309 hp 359 tq, but he said that the hp number really should be anywhere from 330 to 340 I believe. I'll hopefully get on a dyno sometime soon to know my exact numbers
Well, pony up your money for the 25th at this meet north of Columbus. Perfect way to find out for sure.
MEGATRON X 09-02-2011, 10:13 PM yep i may end up doing that, hopefully we get a good group to go down there
gottf257 09-03-2011, 09:42 AM hopefully ill have my car back by then :(
Spoolin11 09-05-2011, 02:27 PM I will do my best to keep this thread going (may start a new one specifically for the 25th dyno day).
If you guys would keep putting the word out I am sure we could get 4-7 guys similar to the shootout.
Don't forget to keep checking the Regional section.
~Ryan
I am planning on going. Are we meeting up and cruising in, or just meeting down there? I am not going to dyno my car, but am going.
gottf257 09-06-2011, 06:14 PM same you can count me in
DarkRider 09-07-2011, 12:02 AM up in the air with the whole thing. i'll know closer to the date.
DarkRider 09-12-2011, 12:34 AM I'm out. Got to work!
gottf257 09-12-2011, 10:47 PM I will have my car back by then, so def in
gottf257 09-15-2011, 01:18 PM we have anymore info on the dyno day? was going to post it on evom as well
Yeah, this thread is all but dead. If the weather is good, I am going. Is anyone else going?
Spoolin11 09-15-2011, 05:08 PM I planned on making a new thread regarding the September 25th dyno day but just haven't gotten around to it.
I will be there.

MEGATRON X 09-16-2011, 02:16 AM sounds good to me, I will try to be there!

gottf257 09-16-2011, 02:37 AM I'm in too
legendary_wraps 09-16-2011, 03:06 AM No can do.... Wedding that day.... Clipseypoo..... I need you to finish my tune... :)

I look forward to connecting with some of you guys. oh and my vote is for solon to have some meets would be great. i'd love to network and learn from you guys. Please let me know when and where you guys will meet. thanks. :godance:
DarkRider 09-24-2011, 08:30 PM We'll have to all get together soon. I've been busy with work and huntin season just started so I'll be spending most of my free time in the woods.

gottf257 09-24-2011, 08:38 PM Jordon and I were talking about Thursday, what do you guys think?
DarkRider 09-24-2011, 08:39 PM I'd be down as long as weather agrees. I've got about a month before she goes to storage.

You guys going rain or shine?
legendary_wraps 09-29-2011, 07:19 PM I like rain.... with my bald NT05's..... it makes the commute exciting...
I just swapped tires Tuesday, I was getting worried about hydroplaning also. LOL
gottf257 09-29-2011, 08:29 PM I know Jerry Jordon Kris and I are going no matter the weather, think Matt is out though
legendary_wraps 09-29-2011, 09:01 PM Matt is a puss...... What time....
legendary_wraps 09-29-2011, 09:01 PM scratch that...... 6pm
He doesn't want his car to get dirty for some reason. Mine and yours and Clipse has seen several winters and the bottom is still like new. He is just worried, I understand it.
legendary_wraps 09-29-2011, 09:31 PM Worried??? Cars are to drive.... Btw.... I'm still at work.... Not looking good...
MEGATRON X 09-30-2011, 02:16 AM fun night guys, i say we change it up next time since forced 4's is all but dead, i vote for the sonic here in streetsboro. It would be fun to have all of our cars parked out there, it could be our first neo-evo event.. we don't need to be recognized on the forum, but it would be cool to get some t-shirts or decals made.
gottf257 09-30-2011, 04:12 AM wtf is forced 4s?! :shades:
but ya was a pretty decent night, even with how crappy the weather was. im down for whatever time/day
MEGATRON X 09-30-2011, 08:01 PM I'm happy with Thursday night still, hopefully everyone would be down to go to sonic, also there is an old carolina bbq that just opened up in stow that we could go to, Jerry wasn't that the place you were talking about?
Clipse3GT 09-30-2011, 08:16 PM How's the car ?
MEGATRON X 09-30-2011, 08:25 PM cars running well, been pissing rain all day so havent had a chance to open her up to much, but so far everything seems to be great. Thanks again, luckily I still have the car after our little run in with the 5-0 :innocent:
legendary_wraps 09-30-2011, 08:38 PM Clipsey poo.... did you miss me.... might have a 5spd MR here soon.... :)
Clipse3GT 09-30-2011, 08:48 PM Clipsey poo.... did you miss me.... might have a 5spd MR here soon.... :)
LOLS... sick of the MR?
We need to finish your tune on one of these days.
legendary_wraps 09-30-2011, 09:41 PM p1808 code on the MR trans means its only a matter of time.... I can covert for less than half the cost of a new MR tranny....
gottf257 10-01-2011, 03:29 AM good thing we met up last night before winter hit. my car didnt even want to turn over when i went to get dinner tonight
I was thinking the same thing today. Glad I swapped out for the all seasons on TUESDAY. 40 degrees on the stockers is asking for trouble.
legendary_wraps 10-01-2011, 02:37 PM I was thinking the same thing today. Glad I swapped out for the all seasons on TUESDAY. 40 degrees on the stockers is asking for trouble.
No.....it's asking for fun!!!!
gottf257 10-03-2011, 09:28 PM Weather is looking killer for the end of the week, do we want to do anything? I don't think I can do the weekend though might be on my way to Cinci by then.
MEGATRON X 10-03-2011, 11:00 PM I vote for a change in scenery and meet at the sonic here by me, whos down? Matt hopefully you can make it this time, i believe theres a zero percent chance of rain thursday right now so I hope that gets you out!
legendary_wraps 10-03-2011, 11:57 PM sonic food does suck..... but they have kick ass slushies!!!!!!!
MEGATRON X 10-04-2011, 12:05 AM Anybody else have any other ideas?
Creamslush?
My vote would be to have a meet in Brunswick at Panini's for eats on Saturday about 5ish, then cruise over to the show.
gottf257 10-04-2011, 02:51 AM I might be able to do saturday, friday/ thurs would most likely be better though
No show on those dates. Weekdays are tough for me plus it is getting dark much earlier now. It does not matter to me. I can't make the east side on a weeknight. The Lube is bad enough.
gottf257 10-04-2011, 03:41 AM Up to you guys, I hate deciding haha. If you guys want to do Saturday that's fine. I'll only be gone about 2 weeks so can always meet up again after. As long as we wont have snow on the ground by the time I come back :innocent:
Well, if you go east Thurs., you can still come out Saturday, we can take the BUICK out.
DarkRider 10-04-2011, 09:34 PM I have to work wed, thurs, and fri after school due to all of the rain.
gottf257 10-05-2011, 03:35 AM Bah can't do Saturday :( Forgot about my little cousin's birthday party. Sorry
MEGATRON X 10-20-2011, 09:56 PM so.... whats up guys, lets resurrect this thread. How's everyone doing? We gonna have a meet again before it snows??
