Everyone's going to start scrambling to establish connections in Japan.

That's Tojo, he isn't here on FT86 but LJ (Full Blown owner) also has a silver FR-S. Tojo (Joe) just got his a little less than a month ago and is having it built.

Afaik, he has a lot more planned for that car.

Hey guys, just a reminder for a cool car show coming up on September 30th -- that's this coming Sunday. It's supposed to be another very nice weekend, weather-wise, so I'll hope to see and meet several of us there!
One of my friends, Jake, has a cool modded '80's Supra Turbo. He also co-owns www.SupraSport.com and they are putting on an "all-Toyota's" show in Stillwater, followed by a cruise. I'm planning to go, and he says he knows of several FR-S / BRZ that will attend too, along with lots of Supras, Land Cruisers, and who knows what other sort of cool cars. Here are the details:
Date - Sunday, September 30, 2012

Time - 12:30pm

Location - 3701 Oakgreen Ave N, Stillwater, MN 55082

Were having a SupraSport/Toyota meet! All Toyota's are more than welcome doesn't matter if its a mk3 supra or a fj40 with a lift kit. Meet will start at 12:30 and a cruise will follow after. (Meet spot is where it has been in previous years, also the home where Lipp products are produced.

Got my BRZ back. All the repairs look good. Been driving a Kia Sorento for the past week. God I hate Kias. Everything has a slighty cheap feel to it and everything feels like its not in the right place.

Glad to have my car back, and even got to keep the scuffed wheel at no charge. It will make a great full sized spare.

Autox at Canterbury on Sunday? I'm 95% sure I'm in, as long as my tuner doesn't have a last minute opening in the morning!

I thought about it, but I'm going to pass. Canterbury's parking lot looked a little rough when I was there last week and I don't want to replace the tires quite this soon.

If you go, good luck and kick some ass!

Bye-bye birdies! (Chirps)

With the recent TSB my dealer ordered parts and will at last (3 service visits) perform fuel pump replacement when on-hand. Tick-ticking will then become more audible and subsequently unbearable.

Anyone planning on the Visconti flex-fuel tune for AT? Should make ++30whp burning 85. Jeez!

Cars & Coffee this Saturday

This may be the last one for the year. There is one on the calendar for November, but they say its "Weather Permitting".

As we experienced last time it's good to get there early I suggest meeting up at Einstein Bros. in Chanhassen around 7am and plan on getting to Automotorplex by 7:30 at the latest. If people want breakfast I'll bring volunteer to bring donuts.

Going to C&C

No one else planning on going to C&C? I'm guessing its going to be a small turnout with snow flurries predicted overnight.

If anyone wants to meet up beforehand let me know, otherwise I'm going to head straight there.

I'm totally missing it this time, it'll be too cold and early for me.

October Cars & Coffee

Cars & Coffee was cold but fun. I was parked between a Skyline, and a very cool Datsun.
