May 6, 2006 Supra Meet in Greenwood, IN

[Jspec7m88]

Well I think just about all of us have been waiting for this to be finalized.
On May 6, 2006, we will be hosting a Supra meet of all breeds(MKII, III & IV's)
@ Hooters of Greenwood, IN. (Indianapolis address)
7551 South US Hwy 31
Indianapolis, IN 46227

http://www.mapquest.com <--A link for any who will need it:icon_bigg

As for timing, We will meet right around 12:00PM in the Hooters parking lot.
I will need to look into it a little bit more to see if I.R.P. will be available for running on that day, but ModernSpeedLabs has already agreed to provide us with a DynoJet. Prices are not 100% sure, but will be looked into as well.
The rest of the day can consist of cruising because there are plenty of "ricers" and exotics out there to play with. A BBQ is being decided as well @ either one of our houses nearby or possibly even at a park.

Although there are still a few things unclear, we hope for this to be a successful meet as I understand in the past it is kind of tough to get the Midwestern Boys gathered up. Welp, Get the word out! Hope to see you there!:biglaugh:

-Jeff

[TheOneOnlyDrone]

[MDCmotorsports]

:-p

I'll be there provided I figure out how to get my HKS TA51 under the hood by then....

[Jspec7m88]

I might come if I can somehow manage to have one of the mk3's done.

Haha, yeah, I understand. I'm sort of in a hold too but I WILL be there with a Supra.

It would probably be better for you to go ahead and seal it up since you've already talked to him. Meanwhile, I'm going to try to find out what the deal is with IRP and if we can run that day. Thanks for the help!

[Eriol]

No prob. We'll just need a final count of how many people will ABSOLUTELY dyno that day, and then I'll tell the dyno folks to expect half that number. ;)

(Seriously, though, lets get a final count)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

I'll be saving my kick-ass numbers for Chi2k6 more than likely... But give me a deadline and I may dyno to make sure I'm not talking shit when I shouldn't be. :biglaugh:

[Eriol]

May 6th?

EDIT: or did you mean a deadline to commit to dynoing by?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

yeah, deadline for the dyno

[Jspec7m88]

hmm, Well I dont know if I can GUARANTEE that I'll be dynoing, but you can bet your butt I plan to, lol. Just a matter of how my Supra(s) want to treat me when May comes around.

[92turbo4life]

i want to dyno the most
ive never done it

[Jspec7m88]

i want to dyno the most
ive never done it


Haha! I can't tell if you are saying that in a motivated, pumped up voice or a goofy and excited voice:biglaugh: "I want to dyno THE MOST" .Good to know you're excited though! Lol...

[Eriol]

A word of advice: make sure you've got something to brag about before you dyno (or at least are getting a baseline number before mods). I can tell you this from experience. ;)

[92turbo4life]

goofy praying i can get more than 200:biglaugh:

[mkiiSupraMan18]

goofy praying i can get more than 200:biglaugh:
Me too... :icon_conf

[87CandyBlueT]

I'll definately be there. I don't know about the dyno yet we'll see how my the supra is doing in May. Plan to do some modifying and possibly engine swap for a rebuilt 7mgte, not sure yet.

[Eriol]

Sweet! Think any of the other Kentuckians would be interested?

[92turbo4life]

hey jspec are you puttin this on sf?
i think it would be a good ide to as long as we dont have 14565456 mkiv's goin

[Jspec7m88]

Well I became a member of SF about a a month and a half ago and the site worked for like a week and then it continued to say it was being upgraded for maintenance and I just dont like it. BUT...for the sake of a half decent meeting, i'll post a thread for it!

[92turbo4life]

alrighty

[aljordan]

I could problee make this.

I won't dyno tho. I don't want MSL anywhere near my car.

[Jspec7m88]

I won't dyno tho. I don't want MSL anywhere near my car.

and why is this? Bad experience?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Ugh... If Toyota doesn't get me the right timing belt, I might not be able to make it the way things are going right now.

I've got 5 timing belts, 3 from Advance, 2 from Toyota... NONE have been the right friggin belt. So I get the # off the old belt, it doesn't exist. WTF? O well, if the belt tomorrow isn't right, I'll be putting the old one on and worrying about it when it finally does break.

Who loves non-interference motors? :icon_razz

[Jspec7m88]

Wow that sucks, Matt...

[Eriol]

Weren't you running some kind of oddball JDM motor? 6M or something?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

oddball my ass.... it's the same damn thing with a longer stroke... I said stroke.... heh...

My buddy got one for his 6m, no problem. everything I order to fit an 82 Supra is wrong, why the hell do I even tell them 82?

ERHOI&RYGHQRBEIFOU!!1! :icon_evil

[aljordan]

and why is this? Bad experience?

MSL is a joke. They constanly rip people off. Guy I know took a car there for some wiring. They gave MSL 380 and some parts to put on the car. 2 months later, they came back to get the car due to excuses and no work on the car. He wouldn't refund the 380, or was able to give the parts the car owner provided.

The car owner ended up getting NO work on the car and 200 back. No parts.. no wiring.. and 180 short.

There are many more instances of this on local forums.

FWIW, he used to run Defcon Motorsports up in Toledo (i think) Ohio.

Fuck em.

[Eriol]

Really? We have local forums? The only one I'm finding is Indycarz.com, and it's kind of a kludge.

It's hard to find anything negative about them, but if you look hard, there are a few complaints out there.

http://www.indycarz.com/about20873.html

http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff107853.htm

How come nobody uses BBBOnline.com or ResellerRatings.com?

I would definitely shy away from letting them work on my car now, but it should be harmless to dyno there. Hell, I wouldn't trust any local shop with my car anyway -- especially not after the way Quinlin, which came so highly recommended to me, resurfaced my spare head.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Sounds like a great place to me...

Just curious how you can burn a clutch up winching a car onto a trailer... Am I missing something here?

[Eriol]

I was wondering the same thing myself. If it weren't for Al's warning, I would take pages like the ones I linked above with a huge grain of salt.

[TheOneOnlyDrone]

Yeah, i work with 92preludesi, he got fucked over on that deal =\ I've heard horror stories about MSL but nothing personally

[Jspec7m88]

First off, I'm sorry to hear for the ones who had problems...There is always a reason for everything and if they were this bad all the time, surely they wouldn't still be open. I've got acouple friends that go there on a nearly daily basis. They've tuned his car, dyno'd plenty of times and exhaust work, one of the best running SR20 240's around. As for their actual quality of work, I can't really stand behind them because I haven't had any personal experiences...but for dynoing, I'm sure that MSL will be just fine!:)

Yeah, back onto the subject... Jspec, you should put who plans to attend on the first thread.

[Eriol]

Yeah, that's probably a good idea -- keep current info like events, times, and who's planning on attending in the first post of this thread; so that people just happening across it can instantly find out what's going on.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Well, if people would read through it and keep up to date, it wouldn't be a problem. :icon_bigg

Got my timing belt yesterday, got it all but put back together, now I just gotta figure out how the heck all my vacuum lines ares supposed to go (It's NEVER been right) I need to post a pic up of the "current" set-up, it'd make a good "pwned" thread. I'll probably get the stupid thing together and get rk or something. :icon_conf

200 rwhp BABY! :wiggle:

[Jspec7m88]

People that plan on attending this meet should keep this thread up-to-date, anyways. But since I'm a nice guy...Here are the people I have down for the meet so far.

Me(Jspec7m88)
Adam(82Turbo4Life)
Matt(mkiiSupraMan18)
Mike(TheOneOnlyDrone)
Lee(Eriol)
Justin(supraman420)
Jon(MDCmotorsports) <---If he can get TA51 under the hood!:biglaugh:
Alan(aljordan)
____?(87CandyBlueT)
____?(boost PSSH boost)

Also, I'm trying to get to know you guys by name...so, If I don't know, tell me!:) I'd feel like an idiot at the meet walking up to someone and saying,
"Hey, boost PSSH boost! How are you?" <---:confused:

As for time, still planning to be there about 12! We will most likely end up hanging out there(at Hooters) for a little while and wait for Matt to get off work, lol.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

My buddy Jason MIGHT be up w/ his "mint" 89T... if he can fix da BHG. lol
I'm freakin 3rd on the list.... wtf?

[Jspec7m88]

What's wrong with being 3rd? lol...

[Eriol]

It's true that people should keep up, but I'm sure some people don't care to sift through our little off-topic tangents (timing belts? ;P ) to get to the relevant information. ;)

As for knowing people by their forum names, I'm weird... I've gotten used to associating people's forum names with them over the years, to where their real names just seem like random details about them. I only feel slightly odd walking up to someone at a meet and saying "hi, you're mkiisupraman18, right? I recognized the car from the pics you posted on the forum!" :)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

And I don't feel bad at all saying, "Who da fudge are you?"

It's cool, because I still don't know half of the people I have seen at meets and actually talked to... But I'm just cool like that I guess. Just ask them their names and remind them that you may, or may not, remember their name 15 mins from then.

[Jspec7m88]

lol...Sorry, to me, it just seems more "appropriate" to call someone by their name when they are SUPRA BROTHERS:cry:
But that's cool, lol. I'll bring some blank nametags and a marker and we can get right to work with our screennames on our shirts! I'm down!:icon_razz

[Eriol]

Hehehe... sounds cool, Jeff.

Matt: I didn't remember the names of anybody I met at Chi2k5... except Nelson, and he's easy to remember.

[aljordan]

jon-- you still gonna get owned by the ts04.

Motor comes out tomorrow..... I'm about halfway thru the pull right now.

[Jspec7m88]

Looks like we've got a little competition going on!;)

[boost PSSH boost]

MDC, I want a ride so I can get an in car vid of it ripping through a few gears :D Pleeaaaase?

I'm really only shooting for 400-450 with the t70, so count me out of the hp competition lol...cause I don't feel like blowing shit up this year after dumping tons of money into it...ran a 12.66 at 110 on a 60-1 CT 26 november 04, then chi2k5 rolls around and I blow shit up and run 14's and 15's on a 57 trim t4. lmao. It was embarassing but still fun...


Edit: Holy sexy header batman...

[92turbo4life]

sry i havent been on
ive been driving because we got nice weather:)
anyways glad to see alot are coming out!!
and mr jspec:) in post 40 u put me as 82turbo4 life:)
thaught id let ya know

[Jspec7m88]

Did I really? Lol...sorry about that. Thanks to 4 hour sleeps and millions of things going on, I tend to space out. :aigo: Normally I catch stuff like that.
82Turbo4Life would be cool, too:)

[92turbo4life]

yeah either or:)
but matt might get a little pissed:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Edit: Holy sexy header batman...

Ride? No problem. I was smoking the 315's in the back through 1st and 2nd on a stock ct @ 16psi so this should be interesting with this monster... Not to mention I have a huge Trust IC going on it too...

Al... you're mine pal. YOU'RE GOING DOWN AT CHI2K6!!!!

BTW.... I followed a black wingless 89+ supra from columbus to southport (my exit). Any bodys car here???



:-p

[92turbo4life]

o well matt you wouldnt mind if i told this guy who lives a couple blocks away with 2 84 red mkii's mint to attend then huh


i will:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Tell him if he attends I'll make him a trophy, or something...

Or MDC will give him a free ct-26 or something... Whatever it takes man, whatever it takes... :icon_conf

WE NEED MORE MKIIs!

dragracer...I have faith in you!:) Oh, If you know of any other MKII'ers or III'ers in Fort W...Let em know! Thanks.

[boost PSSH boost]

I saw a black mk2 with tints rims and exhaust in my small town's grocery store parking lot last night...he might be confused why some fool in a civic yelled "GO TO THE CHICAGO SUPRA MEET, MR. MARK TWO MAN!" at 11 pm.

If the guy's reading this, nice car.. and I didn't mean to scare you when you were just trying to get a soda...haha.

Driving a civic all winter has made me a little weird...I almost started thinking it was quick because it could edge out a stock mk3 turbo and kill some DSM's...I reaaaally need my boosted supe back to get these blasphemous thoughts out of my head.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

I probably would have flipped you off.... lol

[boost PSSH boost]

haha. This is Wisconsin, we are friendly, jolly, often happily drunk people. We only flip off drivers from other states, cause they suck for unknown reasons. lol

Either way, turns out the owner was a junior at MHS...my ol' high school. He asked my friend's brother if he knew me. Fuckin small towns are creepy, man...

[mkiiSupraMan18]

lol
They sure are. Everyone knows you, and you gotta be careful because you JUST might be related to her... :icon_conf

Anyone going to the Auto-X on the 26?

[92turbo4life]

i got rod knock:(
if i start the rebuild and it aint done im going to be showing in an alero:(

[Jspec7m88]

That really sucks, man.:cry:

Get if fixed...quickly!:wtc:

[mkiiSupraMan18]

you crazy mkIII's and your RK.... :nono:

[MDCmotorsports]

Shmmmm matt the 7m's might hear you!

[92turbo4life]

i am going to try my hardest to get it fixed by the meet:icon_conf
if not i am debating wether to drive it untill i have another car i can use. right now the supra is still my dd. the alero is my moma's. so if i dont rebuild ill be there with rod knock.

man this sucks:cry: :cry: :3d_frown: :aigo: :cry:

[Jspec7m88]

I'm hardcore. I'm driving my car with rodknock. Also, I got my Supra today!
89 Turbo Targa...$500:)

[Eriol]

I'm hardcore. I'm driving my car with rodknock. Also, I got my Supra today!
89 Turbo Targa...$500:)

Hehehe... that's exactly what I paid for mine. I probably paid too much, too... in retrospect I wish I had ponied up another $1500 and gotten a nicer example of one.

Speaking of weird stories, I saw a MKII (or it could have been a Conquest, I didn't get a good look) pushing some old POS Toyota (Corolla or some such) down Post road the other night.

I also had some Nazi-looking dude in a newer Toyota follow me for like half an hour last night... I couldn't really drive 10/10ths because I had a carload of stuff, but I still led him on a pretty spirited chase through some of my old stomping grounds... finally I stopped at a gas station to ask him why the hell he was following me, and when he pulled up next to me he just sat there and pretended to clean off the inside of his windshield, totally ignoring me. Weird.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

^ Should have had a mkII... :icon_bigg

And 92Turbo, U try what I told you yet?

[Eriol]

Hehe... actually, I was in my [base model, weak engine] Intrepid. I doubt I'd have had trouble getting rid of him if I were in my Supra.


^ Should have had a mkII... :icon_bigg

And 92Turbo, U try what I told you yet?

[Jspec7m88]

Weird...

[boost PSSH boost]

I'm tellin ya, rod knock is goin around. Get vaccinated, people...when I parked my car and went to florida, I came back to rod knock. Very slight though, we'll see how the guts look today when I pull the bottom end apart.

The top of the pistons look brand new...after 8000 miles. Awesome. Too bad they aren't being reused. Goodbye stockers, hello JE.

EDIT: Pistons are junk, skirts and cylinder walls are scored up something wicked. Rods and crank are still good....yaaaaaay. MDC, what caused the knocking sound if the bearings all looked perfect? Something with the skirts? Figure I'd ask someone more experienced lol

[Jspec7m88]

Sounds awesome!:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

weak intrepid...?! you were pulling on all the mkIV's at Chi2k5 in that thing! :biglaugh:

Damn I hope my rad comes in today... and I hope I'm here when it does.

[92turbo4life]

did all the tests with the injectors and the atf and still knocking:(
just gottas try 15w40 and that wil help maybe

[Eriol]

weak intrepid...?! you were pulling on all the mkIV's at Chi2k5 in that thing! :biglaugh:

Damn I hope my rad comes in today... and I hope I'm here when it does.

Hehehe... yeah, I was infinitely faster than the MKIVs at the track, because they didn't even bother to show!

[Jspec7m88]

Lol...

[mkiiSupraMan18]

FUCK ME FIVE WAYS FROM FRIDAY...

I can kiss the friggin Auto-X goodbye because I was shipped the wrong damn radiator... :icon_mad: It's like 12" by maybe 20", tops... both "hoses" are on the same side (the drivers side) so getting a hose to even FIT would be impossible

BAH FUCK FUCK FUCXK FKCFCK FUCKFC UFCKJFDF:!!!
DAMN IT

Thats my rant for the day, btw

Other than that, and some header bolts, she's ready 2 roll... Oh, and the 4th driveshaft bolt, still need to put it in... DAMN IT I'm friggin pissed...!

Toyota Supra 81-85 Radiators - PWR Racing

PWR Racing Radiators
This beautifully polished all-aluminum radiator features a 57mm thick two-row core that gives high-hp vehicles the extra cooling capacity they need. The stock height and width allow for a factory-like installation, and brackets are included that make use of the factory cooling fan as well. Vehicles with automatic transmission may need to run an external transmission fluid cooler as well.


incase anyone was curious....

Sounds to me like the cyl bores were't circular and or the pistons had too much clearance....

[boost PSSH boost]

or the pistons had too much clearance....

We have a winner. hooraaaaaaay piston slap. :icon_evil

Your prize is....a delicious cookie at one of the meets.

I really should have torn this motor down when I got it, rather than replacing a few gaskets and throwing it in....bah.

[Jspec7m88]

Bye Toasty 88T :(

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Its for the best really.... a hardtop mkIII? Come on....

[boost PSSH boost]

Tim at SP said he wants the shell when I'm done...I don't think it's worth fixing.


Hey now, Toasty was my third hardtop. Except...as you can see I didn't care about interior or exterior, I just wanted to be slightly faster than the guy in the other lane...though sometimes it didn't work the way it was supposed to (fuck IC couplers! I'm gonna weld the pipe right onto the f*cking turbo! HOW ARE YOU GONNA LEAK NOW! )

Glad I got out of that phase. I'm looking forward to playing stupid music with the roof off. MC Hammer, anyone? :D

I should go to bed...I'm stupidly silly at 4...sorry, 5 am, and I have a gig tomorrow...

Get in line, pokey. :icon_bigg

[boost PSSH boost]

I'm out of the Supra game guys. Personal and financial reasons. I will build a bad ass mk3 when I'm raking in dough doing body work after I finish school.

Might still come out to the meet in the car I am getting to replace the mk3...which will remain a mystery for now.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

I still don't see why people think selling their Supras is such a financially good decision. If it runs, why worry about it? I mean it's not really like it's a $12k car.

If you're selling I'm interested... btw.

[boost PSSH boost]

Heh. It's not a running car. I was in the precess of swapping over all the 88T's guts over to the new shell.

it has newer upper control arms, koni yellows, H&R springs and the red on gray interior goes with it.

I'm looking for $500 as it sits.

You can reach my cell at 608 577 5791 if you're interested....I have tooooons of pics....or go look in the build up thread in my sig.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

is this a Targa....?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

OMFG....
DUDE.....
FUCK ME.... Me wants....

*edit*
What is included?

Hit me w/ a PM, partial trade towards a Cressida? Auto or 5sp.... lol

[supraman420]

Will you part the car?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

uhh... I called 1st dibs lol

[boost PSSH boost]

Matt's got dibs,,,cause he wants the car as a whole, which saves me a lot of wrenching and headaches.


I'm gonna shoot you a PM in a while, 56K is a pain.... :D

[mkiiSupraMan18]

lol
Yeah, I got a lot of crapp to think about....

Who wants to buy a Cressida? $1500 auto-$1800 5sp -$2k 5sp/LSD :icon_bigg
All prices, OBO, of course... but aren't very far off.

[Jspec7m88]

HAHA. Looks like Matt got to it first...:aigo:

JUSTIN, how is it going with your swap/rebuild. I forgot what exactly you said you were going to be doing.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

lol... I might already have a buyer for the Cressida...

I friggin pwn... :icon_razz

[boost PSSH boost]

Matt, Tim at Sound performance has expressed interest in the shell. Just wanted to let you know. I am not selling anything until I have heard back from you about it. You have first dibs, even if Tim THINKS he does.

He wants just the shell, but I am inclined not to sell it to him since I had a bad bad bad experience with him when buying parts from him for my dad's 87T. He had our money for 4 months, and we had no parts.

Ring me when you've made your decision....take your time, the shell's not rolling anywhere.

Plus he owes me 50 bucks.




This is probably the fastest part out I have ever done...I sold a good 80% of my aftermarket parts in one night without even posting up a thread about it!


I LOVE SupraMania....I will never leave this forum lol.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Hmm.... I'm off a few days next week, would that be too soon to come pick it up? Provided I decide to buy it, of course. I'm pretty sure I have talked myself into buying it, just gotta run it by da pops.

U got shots of the interior that comes with it? Pics of the dash currently (parts that have been removed)? Hmm.... Maybe a pic of the Spare tire well. Yeah, just e-mail 'em. Cuz like i said, you know it'll be going to a good home. That should make you feel a little better about selling it. :icon_conf

[boost PSSH boost]

Pics sent, Matt.

[westonboege]

if i can get my car together by then ill be there

[Eriol]

Sweet dude, hope to see ya there.

Boost Psssh Boost: Sorry to hear it, man! It was good meeting you at Chi2k5. (I was the one driving the white intrepid)

[Jspec7m88]

Eriol, find anything new out or get any responses back from MSL abou dynoing?

[Eriol]

Eriol, find anything new out or get any responses back from MSL abou dynoing?

Not yet, I've been waiting to get an idea of how many people I should tell them to expect.

Our meet will be during their normal business hours, though, so I don't foresee there being any problems.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

even on a Sat?

*edit*
does their Dyno est. 1/4 times?

[Eriol]

even on a Sat?

*edit*
does their Dyno est. 1/4 times?

http://www.modernspeedlabs.com/ -> about: Hours: Saturday - 10am-5pm

No idea if it estimates the 1320 or not, but I'll ask them next time I correspond with them. There is a nice track just west of Indianapolis that's good for finding out stuff like that, though. :)

[aljordan]

They have a dynojet and I'm about 99% sure that it'll NOT replicate a quarter mile run. I do know that dynojet has an option for loaded testing.. but I'm SURE this shop doesn't have such a feature. They are not big tuners.. only a tuner would want loaded testing.

[dbsupra90]

if my car is together and im not working i'll come by.

[92turbo4life]

hows the sf thread going i hate it over there,
any intrest?

[Jspec7m88]

Let me check.:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

check out this piece....
http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e371/mkiisupraman18/100_0683.jpg

Talk about a friggin turd...

[Jspec7m88]

Is that yours? Stop bragging!:( Damnit...lol. I want it.

[robbo185]

so is there going to be a dyno available...cause i will have an safcII installed and this meet could possibly kill two birds with one stone

[Jspec7m88]

I believe Eriol is awaiting a word back from MSL. Meantime, I've called I.R.P. and got in contact with the head of the racing department...hopefully, we can work something out to run for that day...If not, it will still be a good day:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Is that yours? Stop bragging!:( Damnit...lol. I want it.

lol

If you thought YOU had rodknock... you aint seen nothin.

[Jspec7m88]

Haha, oh, I can only imagine. How much did you get her for? At least it "looks" clean;)

[92turbo4life]

she does look clean:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

it's a friggin shitbox.... Only had to give $700 for it though, it's pretty much sweet...

http://www.boost-world.com/forum/showthread.php?p=22861#post22861

For more pics. Also, a kick-ass friggin forum, mostly Supra owners too. I'd love to have more Supra owners on there.

[Jspec7m88]

Joining right now! :)

[Jspec7m88]

Err...wait, Matt...you aren't cheating behind Supramania's back now are you? Going to boost-world more than Supramania, are ya?:squint: :rant2: lol

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Yeah, because I get to talk shit to ALL makes/models there. Not just ghey mkIII owners... awww DAMN IT... lol :icon_razz

make sure ya put me as a referral... or I'll slapaho

[Jspec7m88]

[mkiiSupraMan18]

So now the question is starting to look like...
"Will I drive the 82 or the 89?"
"Turbo or NA?"

Leaving it Auto for the old lady to drive. :icon_bigg

[92turbo4life]

[Jspec7m88]

I got an idea!:) Bring a trailer...and pull the 82 with the 89:evil2:

[mkiiSupraMan18]

check out the boost-world thread for an update of the engine pull...

I'm pretty stoked about it. I think I'll just put new bearings in and call it a day... :naughty:

[mkiiSupraMan18]

still a month +... who the hell picked this date?

[Jspec7m88]

ME! lol. Only reason "WE" narrowed it down to this date was because of hope that the weather would 90% sure be cleared up. If there is any rain, I'll still be there. It's just rain. :) If a tornado is in the where-abouts, don't count on me showing up.;)

[92turbo4life]

i fixed my knock hahaha
but now i blew my fuckin headgasket
o well rebilud time here i come
o well i might be here with an alero;)

[Jspec7m88]

Alero? It's...almost a Supra...I guess...:(

[Eriol]

Hehe... I'm not going to knock ya, 92turbo... I showed up to Chi2k5 in an Intrepid because...

1. I didn't trust my Supra to make it at that time, and
2. My Supra wasn't in a state to show off.

THIS year, I'll show up in my revitalized Supra... I hope...

[92turbo4life]

haha

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Damn I can't wait until Chicago.

I'm gonna blow ya'll away! :biglaugh:

You're putting on a VTEC sticker? oOoOoh... that'll add 50hp right there!

I might have to go find a GT-R sticker so I'll have a chance of competing with you.

[Jspec7m88]

forget you both. TYPE-R POWER!!:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Jeff, that motor purrs like a kitten, you should have bought it.

[Jspec7m88]

Shut the F* Up. Are you kidding me?????

[Jspec7m88]

Well, congrats, a*hole. I knew I was passing up a great deal. Technically, you bought it from me, but..I guess that doesn't matter. HEY, I hope i'll be receiving the best of the best from your "Turbo collection":)

$75 flipping dollars and you are pulling that sucker and droppin her into your silver one. Gosh, I wish life went as smoothly for me as it did for you. Oh yes, hook me up with that extra tranny if its even worth using. lol

[Jspec7m88]

Who said anything about it being stock?;) lol,

Okay.

Time to get this thread back on topic!
So, Now that we are right at a month until this meet...I just wanted to get a fresh list of people that plan on attending. If you haven't made arrangements yet, request this day off of work, forget that brother-in-laws wedding, forget that Saturday date that you were suppose to have with your girlfriend, GET YOUR BUTT TO GREENWOOD, INDIANA FOR A MEET, B'yotchez.:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Gotcha Jeff, I even manged to get all the trim off without breaking any of it. :biglaugh:

When you want it by?

[Jspec7m88]

Well, if you'd like to, we can meet tomorrow(if you are not working). Saturday, I'll be at a car show just about all day...so tomorrow would be awesome. Let me know what the deal is. Mess with the Red 89 much more?

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Runs w/ a BHG... still a steal for $80

[Jspec7m88]

A steal, indeed. lol. Good luck with it.;) Meanwhile, I'll still be experimenting with "A" CT26. :)

I'll try to call MSL tomorrow to get specific info on the dyno.

[Jspec7m88]

Okay, cool. For IRP, don't plan on having the track open for us. I talked to the racing department manager and he said that he would not be able to open the track unless it is an official thing with a set amount of people and of course, a hefty fee.:( Oh well. If we can at least dyno, I'll be happy.

Eriol, are you on IndyCarz? If so, would it be IndyKid or something like that?

Anybody can show up to any of the ones labeled "street legal." Last year they had more "Saturday Night Midnight Madness" events than they have this year.

I believe anybody can also show up and race in the E.T. Bracket races too, but it costs more to get in -- starts at like $50, I think. Also, those guys are more professional, so it's a lot more competitive. :)

[Jspec7m88]

Well I'm on IndyCarz, and there is a guy on there that has a Supra and his name is Lee. I dunno..could it be a coincedence?:icon_conf

As for the IRP thing, the main lady that I talked to at the receptionist desk said that there were no planned events on that day. I dunno. I guess we'll just see. I sure as heck don't want to pay $50 to race against cars that will poop on me nor do I want to pay $50 to do something that could potentially break my car if I'm not careful!:cry:

Hehe, definitely.

The street legal events are like $15 to race. Sucks that IRP's website was down when we were planning the meet, or we could have picked a day that they were having one.

[Jspec7m88]

Yeah, no kidding. :(

[aljordan]

Jspec- His name is lee and lives on the north side from what i gather. He has a mk4 with a small single and stock fuel system. At least I think its stock fuel.

[Jspec7m88]

Okay. Thanks for the info! I couldn't remember if he had a IV or III. I read online where he was talking about hitting 13.99 and being happy or something. Oh well. Thanks though...

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Hrm, interesting... pm sent.

No bondo in the rear quarters? I'm going to find out how extensive the damage to mine is in one of the rear quarter-panels -- if it's bad, I may just be interested.

[Jspec7m88]

Buy it! (wait, Matt, are you talking about the red one?)...:( lol
You just got it, now you're already getting rid of it. lol

[Eriol]

Eh... if I bought it, it would be to swap the good parts from my Supra into... and whether I want to go through that kind of trouble depends on what damage I find on my Supra that's not immediately apparent (bent chassis, damaged/bondoed rear quarters, etc.)

Muhahahaha... and so it begins:

[87CandyBlueT]

Thanks, yea if only he were in a real police car, would have seen him, I recall seeing him at the mall square. He's a prick too. He was like ou can't do doughnuts like that what if a kid walked out in front of you. I was like you were there I was in like a 100 sq ft. of open lot out from the real parking lot. Only person in the lot was in a car filming me, but I understand what he's saying, but wasn't like I was in traffic or around people. Oh well, can't get caught doing that no more.

[92turbo4life]

i like that^ not i cant do it
i cant get caught
A+

[Jspec7m88]

Yeah, obviously he's just trying to do his job, and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time, but that doesn't mean that he has to be an a**hole about it. Oh well. You learn from your mistakes.:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Uh, no offense to anyone. But it's his job to be an asshole about it.

If you injured someone who was at the mall shopping I'm sure you AND the mall would probably both be in huge trouble. Sure you were in 100 sq feet of open parkinglot. What if your throttle stuck? What if you blew a tire and for whatever reason you lost control and ended up... I dunno... in the middle of a shop there? So many things could go wrong in an area like that.

IMO, stupid stuff like that shouldn't be done anywhere near an area that MAY be busy. I just hope you learned a lesson from all of this.

But yeah, I think I'm starting on the 89 this week. Gotta get that motor out and rebuilt.


Anyone wanna buy a 87 300Z? $3200 obo. Clean as hell. No Jeff, not the piece that you seen (which comes with it, lol). :icon_bigg

Hmm..

If 87candBlueT shows up to the south side of Indy doing burnouts and stupid shit... I'll jerk him outta the car and tell him what time it is. Be cool.. don't be a jackass. Doing things like that in the parking lot was PRECISELY why that undercover cop followed you. You draw attention to yourself, they're going to look at you.

Don't do stupid shit.. and you won't get tickets. Bottomline.

[92turbo4life]

damn lol
ummm so wait you meen to tell me no burnouts drifts or stupid shit..fuck it im out

[87CandyBlueT]

blah blah al, I'll do whatever I wish with MY Supra, and If I want to see how well it does a dough nuts (my frist RWD ever) I'll do it, and I don't need yours nor anyone elses permission. First of all you have no idea what this "parking" lot even looks like, nor where it's placed. Oh and If I have a license I'll be at the meet.

wasn't busy as I explained or atleast thought I did, was an open lot, their were like 12 scion xb's lined up along the end of the lot. Also I was not in the mall parking lot, I was across the street.

[Turbo. Targa. Life.]

blah blah blah doesn't matter: there were still other cars there. Trust me, I love doing donuts and burnouts and what not, but ALWAYS choose a completely empty parking lot with no shops around. :D not hating, just helping.


What if your throttle stuck?
Obviously you(mkii) wouldn't have been smart enough to either,
A.) put it in neutral
B.) turn the car off
While putting it in neutral would've had your revs at about 10,000, it still would've meant averting hitting someone. Just my $.02--take it or leave it

O.T.--I'll be there 95% sure as long as my motor is back in my car by then. Freshly rebuilt with all of Toyota's advertised 232 ponies :D Maybe a few small goodies by then, but I doubt it.

[Eriol]

Let's keep this thread friendly, now -- we don't want it to get locked.

[Jspec7m88]

Agreed. None of us can verify if this parking lot was really "burn-out" safe, but either way, the cop saw him and took action. NOW. Back on topic...

For those who are not on Supraforums, there are going to be a few more Supra's coming from the Dayton, OH area, some other MKIII's and possibly some MKIV's. Yes, MKIII'ers are suppose to be against MKIV's because they take up all the light, but nothing wrong with having them there(even though they will probably ignore us, lol).

Eriol, any updates with MSL? Thanks.:)

90% chance im coming with the other 92;)
im still tryin to fix my shit... so its either im coming or ill c if i can ride with him.. either way im going i cant miss this:)

[Jspec7m88]

Oh yeah, we will be going go-karting.:)

[Eriol]

OK, here are our dyno options:

A. Rent the place out for the day: $1500
B. Just show up and dyno, $75 for 3 runs.

Also, if enough of us dyno, he said he may cut us a deal.

I don't think option A would be worthwhile unless we either had more than 20 people dynoing, or had a lot of people dynoing who were dyno-tuning and needed more than 3 runs.

[Eriol]

Oh yeah, we will be going go-karting.:)

FastTimes on the North side is pretty cool... they have go-karts powerful enough that you can hold a powerslide for almost an entire lap.

[92turbo4life]

^ drifting ricer style yo;)
wait ive been to some go carting places where you have to be 17 or 18.... im like ok i got a license there like nope. can someone check on that for me so i can start crying now and not when i have to video tape u guys carting.....lol

[Eriol]

Hehe... I wasn't actually suggesting we go there -- they're a little on the pricey side (like $25 or $30 a race, IIRC).

[92turbo4life]

or we can go to a open parking lot and hold a "powerslide" for like 4 parking spots yo... its cheaper......lmao j/p where almost to the meet lol i remember when it was like febuary;)

Might still be coming. Either in the new car (if finished, I have a lot of parts to put on once it is here.) or in my dad's car if it is done and broken in.

Hint about the new car....

EDIT: found it -- "All drivers must be at least 18 years of age and must present a valid driver’s license."

Sorry dude. :(

[Jspec7m88]

Yessss. +2 for the fat "Korean" kid. boosh PSSH boost, no keeping secrets or you are getting banned.:)

[Jspec7m88]

HO-LY SH*T. $25 to race on that track? I'll do it! But I don't want to wear a blue suit:(....

Wow, that is really hardcore go-karting...

[Eriol]

Hehe... yeah, I guess Indycar drivers have been known to show up and mix it up with everyone else.

Actually, it's $18 a race, or $45 for 3 races for cardholders. They generally require you to wear the blue suit and a helmet, but I've heard they relax the suit requirement sometimes in the summer when it's really hot.

[Jspec7m88]

Yes, I was going to say, it would get hot as hell lol. Yeah, I was just looking at the carts themselves and such. 9HP, baby. Excessing speeds of 40mph! I was originally thinking of just going to Rascals (Whiteland) because it's close to Hooters area....but then again, what's a meet without driving all over the place and cruising anyways.

Now I'd like to get as much feedback as possible on this one...
We are going to be meeting at Hooters...originally, it was just going to be a "meet" spot...but while we plan to meet around Noon(Lunch), would you guys be interested in actually going in and eating? Let me know, because if so, I'll probably need to call to make arrangements/reserve if we are going to have 10 or more people.(which I believe we will:))

[92turbo4life]

fuckin a" damn i cant go cart o well it aint that big of a deal i guess.. i wouldnt mind the food or view at hooters;)

[Jspec7m88]

Amen, Adam.:) If we decide to go to Hooters, it will make all of us feel like little kids again:rolleyes: ...I've been to Hooters a million times and it just never gets old.:) Plus, they have awesome wings and I can say that the Hooters we are meeting at has by far the best "employee physical feature" I've ever been to. :bigthumb: hehe

[92turbo4life]

agreeed
hey by the way anyone know the word on the dyno or da track?

[Jspec7m88]

OK, here are our dyno options:

A. Rent the place out for the day: $1500
B. Just show up and dyno, $75 for 3 runs.

Also, if enough of us dyno, he said he may cut us a deal.

I don't think option A would be worthwhile unless we either had more than 20 people dynoing, or had a lot of people dynoing who were dyno-tuning and needed more than 3 runs.

There ya go, Adam.
As for the track, I can't remember who it was that looked it up but I'm too lazy to find it through these pages, but they said that we could run for $15 but would be going against more "competition" or whatever...

nahhh.. downtown owns.

[mkiiSupraMan18]

what? the Downtown Westport Hooters? :icon_bigg

I've seen a little bit of talk on OHSupras.org, apparently a few are planning on coming. It might not be a bad turnout. Mini-Marathon is also on the 6th, is it not?

[Jspec7m88]

Yes, I think this meet might just turn out to be better than I thought:). This will be a rare meet for the Midwest...(actually having a decent meet). Well, are we going to be eating inside Hooters or not? I think a lot of people will be dynoing, so there is 75 bucks (unless we can get a lot of people to dyno, then he'll drop the price). Its going to cost another almost $20 to go-kart, It sounds like it's going to be a very expensive get together...I say we just settle it on the tracks at Rascals go-kart track that is much cheaper. It's up to you guys...

[mkiiSupraMan18]

Meh... If we go to rascals they got Daytona USA... lol

I friggin love that game.

[Jspec7m88]

Yesss, it's a classic.:)

[Turbo. Targa. Life.]

Chances of me attending are looking slim to none :( I doubt my motor will be done in 2 weeks AND put back in. There's still a slight chance though. I hope I get to go :-/

If not, there better be LOTS of fuggin pictures!! Are we gonna do it again next year?

[Jspec7m88]

Also, Al.... the TA51 OWNS JOOOOOOO!
Back to Matt: Downtown westport hooters is the local dairy queen with a high school hooker workin the counter
Back to Al: Downtown hooters rules! :-)

[87CandyBlueT]

Oh well I'll be there then, by the way MDC I'm no kid. I work 50+ hours a week and go to college, I deserve a little fun and trouble and you'll never see a dime from me again. Well it's been great here I have picked up alot of information and knowledge of the 7m here. Most of the members here have been very helpful and given me great tech tips and guidance for my mk3. As for the rest of you who are negative and unsupporting. I was just trying to share my experience with you guys. It's all cool though, no worries, no hard feelings here, their are other places to go for advice etc. Like I said as for those that have been of great help and guidance thanks again, especially the moderators here, you guys are the shit and you know your 7m's. GL to all and I'll see some of you at the meet.

[92turbo4life]

i say we do the track thing forsure..
i mean as long as all you need is a license and a car im down. i would want get used to running and stuff off the track casue it would be my 1st time.. i need new tires though...lol
as far as gocarting or dynoing i would vote a dyno but i dont care.. im just happy it will be a good turnout;)

[Jspec7m88]

Nobody else wanting to dyno? C'mon now! It's not like it'll hurt anything.:)

[92turbo4life]

lol fo sho but are we double carting...?lol i cant get over that itll be the highlight of the whole damn thing

[Jspec7m88]

HAHAHA. I was kidding about that. The carts that we are considering are hardcore go-carts that require a helmet and a jumpsuit, blah blah blah. I think we might just go to this other "Gaming" place that has Go-carts, other video games and of course...DAYTONA USA :):):) (Matt, you don't want none.)

[92turbo4life]

fuck the game i want the track.....lol
but up here we do race for 5 dollaz on a game and i must say i am good:)

[mkiiSupraMan18]

I have a question... whats keeping this from being a yearly thing? I've wanted a monthly/bimonthly Supra meet in the area sooooo bad since I got my first Supra. Damn that would be SWEET! Change up locations, hell, the best would be when someone was doing a rebuild a few ppl caravanning up on a week-end to help 'em drop a motor in or w/e. That'd be the TITS. Speaking of which, with enough notice (and possibly gas money) I'd be willing to help anyone with something of that sort, provided it's not half-assed and U have all the parts. lol MDC will tell ya, I ain't slow. :icon_bigg And anytime anyone wants to come to Westport to help me, just swing by, there's always stuff to do! :icon_bigg

As far as the Westport DQ goes, whats wrong with high school hookers? :naughty: That place has gone to shits since I worked there back in.... Jr High. The chicks friggin suck now.

And 87CandyBlueT, honestly, we aren't trying to be uber negative or whatever, we just DO NOT want this crapp going on at the meet. I mean, the last thing we want to happen is for someone to get hurt or tear their car up and not be able to make it to Chi2k6, or be so pissed off they sell it (if that happens at this meet, I call first dibs on "how much?" :icon_razz ). Or atleast that's how I feel about it. It's nothing personal against you or anything, but if you wanted to do doughnuts the best thing to do would be to go to an auto-x somewhere and just let it eat around a sharp corner. Sure the old people would get pissed, but it's legal, and it's always in a safe environment. Sure putting it in neutral or turning the key off are ways to... "help", but with any amount of speed a lot can happen while you take time to react to the situation.

There, I said my peace. $.02 to all who attend from me.

[MDCmotorsports]

Matt, you crack me up brotha.

Hey that go kart place makes me sooooo sick. I come out looking green!

Also.... wouldn't mind having a monthly meeting. All my subaru wrx guys do it. We meet at different restraunts once a month.... ITS GREAT!
