Well at this point a bunch of us just hang out on the regular. But we do plan meets in the summer, and myself and Lindsay will be at the track at least a few times (hopefully with a few more joining us)

That's awesome I don't see alot of cx-7 action on here. I'm hoping to clean my valves, delete my egr and pcv soon as the weather warms up again. I also am looking for a Gen Juan vc powder coated

Yeah Ive cleaned valves on a few cars. its not terribly hard, just time consuming to do right. plan for at least 3 days to do it right (lots of over night soak time)

if you plan on doing walnuts, I think I might have a 5lb box of them. You can have it if you want. Otherwise B12 and some rifle cleaning tools is all you need.
