The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[sm76]

Of course I do!

What kind of repair is he looking for? Full blown, put it back to factory stock no matter what it takes/costs, repair? Is it a dedicated race car, where he just needs it "pulled around" so the new body panels will bolt on and line up decently? Is he paying out of pocket, or turning it into insurance?

It is a dedicated race car. He is paying himself. I think the most important things are that the suspension geometry is correct and it retains crash worthiness.

Pulling it around to get all the specs right wouldn't be bad. The tough part would be it's ability to retain factory crash characteristics, because that would likely require relacing the frame rail, and that's an expensive job.

It's all speculation right now though. Step one would be to check out the damage and go from there.

We'll kick in $40 between the boss and myself

He's working on the car on Sunday, pulling things off. If you wanna take a look at it and talk to him about options and what you could do...

I just signed up to ride 50 miles in this year's Peltonia in August. It's a bike ride where 100% of the donations for riders go to cancer research. More Info Here They have you commit to raise $1250 for the 50 mile ride but I only have to try to raise $650, the other $600 is covered by my work. So I get to be that annoying guy begging people for money. If you would like to donate to my ride you can do so here. I'm also going to put a link in my signature if you want to do it at a later time. My plan is to see if I can get 650 people to donate atleast $1, more is always appreciated.

Thanks,
Nate

Nice man! I'll be riding in Bike MS Pedal to the Point the weekend before... 175 miles from Brunswick to Sandusky and back! If I had more time off, I would totally ride Pelotonia with you... Good luck man!

"factory modifications done by mazda"..... BUHUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH...... [tear]

 

[etipp98]

Yeah, only thing I would say that the factory or dealership installed was the MSCAI...

not sure how far stock I want to take back too, I think I have everything but a radiator and a intake mani and a fuel pump (i'm pretty sure that's the reason it doesn't start right now). I might need stock injectors as well. I'm thinking I'll keep the fmic for now since I don't want a car payment if any till after we get a house so the rad isn't a big deal yet.

Have anything on your wish list I might have?
