Alright, if nobody else will get off their lazy arses and organize some kind of DSM club for the Houston area I will!! Whoever is interested just post some kind of reply. I live in the Humble area, every Saturday night there is a fairly lame car show at the Jame's Coney Island about a mile from my house. Maybe some Saturday night we could all meet up at my house and head over there for a while, look at some cars, then maybe head out to Rankin or something. I dunno. Or maybe just head back to my house and put a few down or something. Or maybe nothing at all if nobody is interested. If anybody thinks this sounds like fun, or at least something to do, shoot me an email, iland_99@yahoo.com and lemme know what's up. Thanks.

Sounds great Isaac. I'm all for it I just hope some other people are actually interested in DOING something! If not, throwing a few back around our cars sounds as good as anything else to me. I'll check back here but let me know if anything comes up.

I live 50 miles south of houston. Im game.
I just cant bring my car up there. My engine is being rebuilt.
However, I can ride my CBR up there. If I am correct, a lot of bikes ride up to coney on sat. This is the one on westimer(correct me if I am wrong)
let me know.

I think the Coney he was talking about is in Humble and is off of FM1960 just West of Hwy 59.

I think I am going to do an engine rebuild also so I would really like to talk to you about it. I have had so many problems with the car lately I should just sell it but I can't since I know the potential it has.

Yeah, the coney i was talking about is just off FM 1960. Our neighborhood is pretty full of bikes, so you'd fit right in. One guy has a turbo + nitrous on his bike. Pretty insane. I'll see what's going on next weekend, this weekend was pretty shot for me, didn't get anything done on the car, but I finally did get a computer at my house. Anyway, I'll let people know what's up by thursday or so. Check back later if y'all wanna.

I guess I was tallking about the one on westimer. Talk about a lot of bikes. Lets just say if one bike fell over, it would be a domino effect.
My bike doesnt have nitrous or turbo, but it is still fast enough.
I would love to get together. Maybe we could start something big. Let me know about this weekend. I will help out any way possible. Plus, I need to get together with JW.

here is my email.
buckygraham@hotmail.com
Thanks

Well I'm not too sure what I'm gonna be able to do this weekend. The parents are visiting from Minnesota in a couple weeks, so that means we've got hellafied cleaning to do between now and then. The talon still isn't running anyway, it'd be pretty lame if I had to drive the 1.8 to a DSM club-type meeting. My cousin got canned from his job, so he'll have plenty of spare time to work on that. Hopefully she'll be on the road in a week or two. We'll see.

If any of you people are worried about emissions testing or anything like that, my brother works at a Mr. Carwash that also does emissions testing. He's good friends with the guy that does all the tests. Apparently he'll let you get away with everything and anything if you know somebody he works with. Just something to keep in mind if any of you people are worried about passing emissions.

I think coney on westheimer will be a problem.
I still dont know how to spell that street.
There will be piles of bikes there. They even close
down the neighboring shopping center. we just need to
find somewhere to loiter. Damn, I cant spell anything
I think it is time to go back to school. Anyone have any
ideas? I am so game. I dont care if there is only 2 of us.
I will still be there.
Peace.

I think I actually have all weekend off for a change, so if anyone else wants to we can hang out at my house if that's ok. I'm not too sure what kind of turnout there's been lately at James Coney Island, I haven't gone in a couple months. If anyone else wants to hang out my email is at the top of the page.

Looks like the Talon might be boosting by this weekend! Got home from work yesterday and my roomate had everything on except the exhaust/turbo/intercooler!! Turns out I need a new timing belt tensioner, so I'm getting that tonight from Satan. Now I just gotta change the motor mounts and I'm set!!

dsm guys

this sounds good. why doesnt 1.8 too slow post the next message and lets all meet up on saturday night. then, we can cruise down to brittmore where there is some real racing. we can all cruise down there cause i go pretty much every other weekend and im sick-n-tired of representing diamond star motors all alone. i end up putting a name out but i would like to have fellow dsm owners out there too.
intrested?
e-mail me or put a post up.

if not, then go sell your dsm and :piss: off , just joken

I'm not very familiar with the area yet, just where is brittmore? I just moved here in august from minnesota doncha know, 'eh? As I said before, I live in Humble. That's pretty much the only area I know worth a damn. I know how to get to Westheimer, Hwy 59, I45, Beltway 8, and that's about it. I'm game to meeting at my house, then going wherever. Doesn't really matter all that much to me. If we do decide to meet at my house, y'all will hafta excuse the mess we call a garage. I don't think you'll be that offended by it, it's exclusively 4G63/4G37/420A parts scattered about.

I just found out I have to work on saturday. AGAIN! If anyone wants to meet up either email me iland_99@yahoo.com or call me at (281)878-5265 (work) or (281)446-9456 (home). Hmmmm.....I've had one day off in the last 3 weeks....nice.:rolleyes:

Here is the lowdown. I will be riding my bike(motorcycle) up to houston to meet up with JW. We will then go up to Westhiemer. I dont know where, but somewhere. I will have my cellphone on if anyone wants to call. After that, I guess we are going to Brittmore. Just call me 979-480-4467, James 832-725-7118. We will be around somewhere. Hope to see as many of you guys as possible.

Whats up guys.

Im down for hooking up with some fellow h-town dsm'ers. The only problem is that I had a BMW backup ONTOP of my damn hood two days ago, so my baby is all scratched up and dented.

I live right off of westhiemer, so if yall are going to around here this weekend, just give me a hollar slantedj@peesack.com

Hey Talon318, did you go to Bwood?

Anything going on this weekend? I'll be working on the idle problem I'm having with the Talon. If anyone feels like giving me any input I'd be more than happy to listen. thanks.

UPDATE on the talon!!

Well we finally got the talon running this weekend. Turns out my idling problems were thanks to the genius who owned my car before me. He decided non-turbo injectors would be ok. Amazingly enough, not even the CEL is on! The first thing we did was do a HUGE smoke-show in front of our house. I gotta get that outta my system since my next project will be making the Talon AWD again. Now I just gotta get it titled and insured.
