Checking in from Grove City(south side of Cbus). Just bought a third gen 89 RS. V-6 is on the away out 355 is going in. Where is a decent place to cruise when the weather warms up? My son and I are looking for some good places to hang out. I am trying desperately to get him away from the imports(it's not that some of them aren't fast, I just can't stand the coffee can mufflers and the 3' tall wings!!) and we need a place to hang out where there are more than Honda Civics and WRX's. Can't wait 'til it warms up so we can break some parts....

Honestly I don't know anymore. I remember the cruise-in places in dayton from way back. Hail and Hearty, Burger barn ect. I hear there's something going on a Quaker steak and lube these days but I havent explored that yet.
As far as Cincy goes I have not seen/heard a thing. And columbus seems to be the same way.
Hey Hargrave,,,if your from Cinci I am surprised you haven't heard of Steak and Shake in Milford. I am a regular there every Friday night,,,usually about 5-600 cars on a good weather night. It's the biggest cruise happening around the cinci area. We are the same bunch of guys that were at JD Ritzy's and then Skyline on Beechmont,,,then we moved to Frishes in Mt. Carmel and now have been in Milford for the last 5-6 years now. Come on out next spring. Larry.

what's the phone #? i'm looking for a heater only box for a 3rd gen.
i also have a MAF sensor from my 87 GTA that i'm looking to sell. It has hardly any miles on it. I paid 185 for it at advance auto. I'm going to get pictures of it today to show the great condition it's in. It's remanufactured but works great and still has the screens. I don't think i've even ran the car 2k miles since I bought it. $100 OBO
I just wanted to say hi. Im at Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita Falls,TX. Finished basic training a couple weeks ago, so I havent been on the boards for a while. and man does Texas suck! I thought Ohio's weather was crazy, but this place is worse. and the local drag strip is closed for the winter.
anyway, i be home before spring, so i can go car shopping(drooling for an LS1)
orginally from Sabina, OH (outside Wilmington near interstate 71). Still bring my street legal 92 RS to KilKare to race with the family. Best time being 11.80's in the 1/4.
Like what mods? I have my AC delete, new steering wheel, all new gorilla black chrome closed end lug nuts (with lockers), new wheel stems, new tires, new brakes, new ignition setup (tires, brakes and ignition are aftermarket -not done by me-), also I have full ROYAL PURPLE liquids...expensive but worth the loss in friction...noticeable when your gear oil was the first shyt put in it, your oil is needed for a change your power steering has never been changed and coolant never flushed....OH YEAH 100% YOU CAN FEEL THE DIFF. Lastly...I have msd wires (need to go on), AC DELCO Iridium plugs, Hi-miler hoses with new clamps, 180 stat with 200* on and 185* off fan switch. Stock fan electric...good enough for a while...because after I buy my full exhaust comes full cooling, meaning hi-flow water pump, hi-flow oil pump with cooler, hi-flow fuel pump with cooler, and new radiator (griffin). Oh my bad and the tranny cooler too. LMAO. Whoops...yes many coolers...might not install the fuel cooler or oil cooler at the moment but that tranny cooler is needed. And thats all for now....besides little knick knacks.
I just started mine yesterday too. Only window I could see out was the drivers side. Felt almost foreign after driving the subaru all winter. I miss my bird so bad.
I feel like a bad parent, I've been driving mine all winter. Got the project running and driving just in time for the monsoon season and the salt season... yay me!
That could be fun Munson. Maybe you know someone who can set up a rear around here? I contacted hutters in chardon, but I can't find any others to compare to. Snow needs to go!

Weird, I grew up four miles outside of Sabina.

You guys know this should be in the Midwest region board don't you???
Board doesn't say so.
" Mid-West Region
Regional message board for WI, IL, IA, MI, MO, and MN to organize gatherings, meetings, and to help each other out. "
Ohio is in a different time zone than any state in the midwest anyway.
