Just wondering if theres any MK3 owners in the central FL area..
I mostly see people from south/northern panhandle Florida..
I dont see many MK3's in my area either, an the ones I do are driven by old ladies..

If anyones around, hit me up.

Yea dude, JDM turbo swap, i had a N/A before my turbo and its harder and more expensive to make the N/A to a turbo or to make much horsepower out of it, to me the N/A is like a built motor from the factory, lol, but I dont know its up to u, whatever fits your budget.

what part are you by the oviedo mall

Im right by the Alafaya area

but I did the exact same thing you did cept mine was a 89 and I let some 1 cut the springs which was a big mistake It all depends what type of money you want too put into the supra like right now im building up the ge block to handle the turbo with new gte pistions and such. but im doing the work with a friend whos rebuilt the motor already. It may be cheaper too by the 7mgte all depends what you want. And now I need new springs :3d_frown:

as for the rest of you fuckers.... im thinking of organizing a meet in the near future in the tampa area around the beach... i expect ALL of you to show...im tired of the same old 5-10 mk3s we get together with around here.... ill post up a thread when it gets evolved!

Maybe so? I live in Northgate, although I think you are talking about that subdivision at the VERY end of the road. At any rate. . .If there is a good enough showing of mk3's in tampa, I might drive over there from time to time. Some of us around here should head to the uc7 meet one wednesday night. (if that is even still going on). I spent my summer working at a machine shop and doing my buildup. I'm boosting a little more every time I drive her, but I'm gonna give it a couple hundred more miles until I call the new engine fully broken in.

I'm in orlando area as well, specifically down by waterford lakes area.

And no, they don't do UC7 anymore. Seems cops started kicking people out after some of the local businesses complained about idiots doing burnouts and loud music. Most of it moved to the corner of goldenrod and university, in the plaza where tijuana flats is (across the street from sonics).

I'd be up for a tampa meet, assuming it's at a time when I can make it. I'd be up for an orlando mk3 meet too. Last time I could only make it to the track day portion of the CFL supra meet, but there was only three other mk3s there. Did more of you show up to the next day stuff, or are you just too skeered to park next to the mk4s? :naughty:

Anyone know what happened to the usual saturday night 50 meets?

that, and who's the white mk3 delivering for papa john's on the corner of 50 and alafaya?
