For those not familiar with it, the Tacoma Supra Meetup is 10-11 (so 10:30 is a good aim point, lots of gawking and talking) at the same old spot 56th Street (exit 130) Park and Ride (that looks like a business only) on the West side of I-5 off Tacoma Mall Blvd @ 56th St (NOT the obvious P&R on...

I was in Centralia today. Monster Pizza Pete sign is a good beacon. Kenny, see you in the dry shittties

I do WA-821/Canyon Road 4-5 times/year. Basically there wasn't enough room to build the Interstate in the Canyon, so it went over several mountain ridges (Manastash) instead, so Canyon Road is ~ 5 miles shorter than the Interstate, but 5-15 minutes more time and much more fun. But I'll only...

I was talking to some Centralia Supra owners the other day - there will be ~5 Van Pool vans in our usual area, we can park around them. I'll handle the celicasupra.com announcements for the MK II crowd. Bumping the Supraforums post. May 4 it is!

There is similar discussion on supraforums (in NW subforum). Looks like rather than stop near the Tri-cities, looks like somewhere around Hermiston/Pendleton to also join with the Portland contingent coming in on I-84. I'm familiar with I-82 around the Tricities, no good spot to stop (no gas...

Yeah, a date (Now let them complain, noted)! I'll contact a couple of folks I know in Centralia/Chehalis to have them scope out the parking lot; don't think there will be an issue (only one year have we had an issue, swiftly resolved) as this has happened for over 15 years. I can run down there...

There is no discussion on celicasupra - we'll do whatever is decided - but the general agreement (we had a dozen cars in Everett 2 weeks ago) is that Centralia is a Spring meet, no later than May 15 - You want a Summer meet, plan a new summer meet. And with Nationals being moved up to an early...

Guess I'm 5 hours too late. Laterz.

LOL, as this is similar to to what what I've been helping a fellow forum member with. Where do all those vacuum lines and coolant bypass hoses go to? 89 7MGE (yes, non-turbo). I'm about to hit the TSRM (90) as the Haynes is useless on the vacuum system. I know the 5MGE well, and am responsible...

Thanks for the 2-3 year old posting on this. Guess we're #3 to admit it. Many months ago met a guy with an 89 7MGE NA Auto in my credit union parking lot. I'm in the local Supra scene, but MK II, give him info. Get a panic call about removing the harmonic balancer to fix a BHG (bubbles...

I've heard of the Sat Car Meet @ South Hill Staples that started last year, haven't been to it yet but a neighbor has and said it was decent (all makes/models). Maybe a Toyota area near the other meet? For awhile there was a Tacoma Sonics (K-Mart) Toyota meet but it sort of fizzled. PSTOC...

I believe the concrete work is on the new N-S oriented drag strip in the big hole, not the one we're all familiar with, oriented E-W directly into the sunset. No idea if the new strip will be ready for us, if not, the original one will support. Only issue I can think of is getting stuck behind a...

Sort of sighting. I was sighted. Yesterday at Lakewood Town Center (after I stuffed myself at 5 Guys) I pull up to NFCU (bank) in my 83 Daily and guy walking by asks me if my car is an 84, I say no, 83, as it doesn't have the wrap-around side markers (but I do have an 84, LOL, and an 82 w/...

For the folks from the north, there is usually a meet-up in Tacoma at the 56th St Park and Ride/Office Building (SW corner) that leaves an hour before (leaves at 11AM, usually folks start arriving up to an hour before = 10AM). Further north folks meet near Alderwood Mall (and still further...

Thanks for the info, I'll post over on CelicaSupra (82-86) - several have had issues with this over the past couple of years. I know "Toyota Tim" (75 Corolla owner at about 300 HP) keeps a printout of the rules for his old-style plates because the cops don't know (you can have 2 cars with the...

They are afraid of you, 7MGTE and 500 lbs lighter. LOL. I should be in the dry-shitties soon, and will try to some folks together. Maybe Ice Harbor in the evening, or Columbia Park in the day. Um, you do have a front strut bar - can't remember. Major difference. I can probably loan you one...

Hey Tri-cities folks, Garrette has a nice MK-II with a 7MGTE (so 500 lbs lighter than a MK III). Next time I'm over we'll have to meet up (Sometime in the next 2 weeks, maybe ~ July 4). I gave him the dates of the autocross events at the old raceway.

You mean like I did at the last Portland Meet in 2008? Then SF went down for a week MK I/II/III/IV It was 100F+ that day (40C) and I was about to pass out by the end. At least I wasn't hanging out in the dyno area, even worse.. Centralia isn't a good event for such a pic, but the PNW...

Since I'm in the Tri-Cities monthly. I'm interested. I don't need to dyno nor autocross, though I will watch autocross. There were some meets 96-8 in the area (I went to 2).
