<font color='#000000'>I talked to Ben (Lunspeed) for a while last night. &nbsp;He told me about the show/rave/party up there at the Metroplex on the 16th. &nbsp;Me and SaRa will be there, &nbsp;and the 2.5L GSt too I think. &nbsp;It should be a BIG hit since the show is sponsored in part by SE.DSM &nbsp; <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

I dropped the 2.5L in the bay of the 95 GSt today after we FINALLY pressure washed the empty engine bay. &nbsp;We have to drop the motor in Pricer's red MR2 turbo tomorrow so he can get it sold, &nbsp;then I'll be fabbing the intercooler plumbing for the Starion on the GSt. &nbsp;Should be running and ready to show off by next weekend. &nbsp;Come out and see us!

SaRa has gone to pieces... <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

No, not like you think. &nbsp;I finally took the initiative and pulled the T25 off her (aka Smokey). &nbsp;The bearing is in bad shape.
There is about 1/16&quot; back and forth travel of the shaft. &nbsp;It will be shipped out via FedEx first thing tomorrow morning and at Turbo Performance in CA Monday morning. &nbsp;I will have it back, brand new and even better, &nbsp;by Wednesday afternoon. &nbsp;I'm having it re-built, &nbsp;and since it is my personal turbo, &nbsp;he is throwing in a few &quot;tricks&quot; for me. &nbsp;Ben, &nbsp;you better hurry up.....I'll be in the 12s Wednesday night if the track hooks like it did last week.

Speaking of the track. &nbsp;Going with us to Darlington this week will be the 92 Prelude with the JDM H22a that I just rebuilt.
Skunk2 St2 cams/gears, &nbsp;Skunk2 springs and Ti retainers, Crower St Steel valves, new stock bottom end. &nbsp;I designed a bal shaft elim kit for the h22/23 that is being tested on this car too. &nbsp;A CM 11lb flywheel and ACT clutch, &nbsp;GReddy header and AEM intake round out the rest. &nbsp;On the stock motor with i/h/e he was running 14.1 on the street tires. &nbsp;Cant wait to see what he'll do now. &nbsp;As soon as he hits 5k miles on the new motor were going to throw on a 100 shot too. &nbsp;This car revs SO quick with that flywhel and no balance shafts! <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cool:'>

Got to go for now.....see you guys in a week!

<font color='#000F22'>My car will be there. &nbsp;Im gonna try to get to Shady Side Thursday but idk if it'll be finished. I still havent tuned it for the nitrous. If i can get some sonoco blue at the track i might run it anyways.</font>

<font color='#000000'>By the time that I get up there I hope to have run 12s on Wednesday night...street tires and all.

I did some work to the car today, &nbsp;mostly cosmetic stuff to get the front bumper finished off for the show. &nbsp;I also built a blockoff/support plate for the bumper to the radiator support. &nbsp;It also directs more air thru the intercooler. &nbsp;Should work out pretty well. &nbsp;The intercooler plumbing is getting re-powdercoated too.

See you guys there...
