Headcount is growing (yay!), space is limiting (no!), and so is the comfort some may feel parking next to 'other' cars. What do ya think of moving the congregation to the lot in Hacienda, in front of Black Angus, along the freeway side (always empty there b/c it's the farthest spaces). Will still be area, just with less 'other' cars to park next to.

Do your magic phat remembering this started with 6 cars. As pop grows, so should the space

Pressure is on brotha . Hit me up. Just chopping it up cuzz well you know, daddy daycare haha.

GTR sure took up too much space..
Lot's are in the works, but thanks for your feedback.

Oct. Dublin Meet-N-Greet Recap



Last Friday, we had another fantastic turn-out at Dublin Meet-N-Greet located in the Dublin Toyota Dealership. As you all know, Dublin is a central location here in the Bay Area, where owners can come and gather on the private property of the dealership on the 2nd Friday of every month. Besides providing a secure, safe and well lite parking area for owners, we had the pleasure of having one of the Dublin mangers on site to answer any parts questions and to get to know our community better.





Despite the cooler temperatures, local members still came from cities as far as; Stockton, San Jose, Milpitas, and Daly City. Again, this monthly meet will not be here if it was not for the support of each and every member that care about this community. So, great job everyone!








This month, we had our technical discussion on: Zeta Performance, AEM Induction Systems, and Agency Power. Each product was given an in-dept discussion about their benefits, technical data, and price point. Products were passed around for owners to experience first-hand on fit/finish, quality control, and overall impression. Next, the parts will be installed and dyno tested for real world results in working with Vishnu/FFTec. We will have the results by the next Dublin Meet to inform.



Soho Cafe was on hand serving lemon tea and milk tea to the community. Thanks guys!

Thanks everyone and enjoy the blurry pictures.

This FR-S from Stockton was very aggressive dropped on BC Racing coilovers and running 10" wide wheels with stretched 225 rubber.



NorCalGirl brother came out with his recently finished '98 Supra. It started out as a NA automatic.. today it has a Getrag 6-speed, 2JZGTE swap, rebarreled Work Equips, Bride Ergo seats, Takata Harnesses, and a Shine wide body carbon kit. Very nice!



Our local GTR owner finally got his car back from Sonic Motorsports. It is now a Switzer 800 horsepower monster! New goodies include Top Secret carbon trunk, red Bride Zeta buckets and a Cusco cage waiting to be installed.



Whatthedunk brought out his SCCA fun car; his EVO8 equipped with Bushler Racing exhaust, RPF1, Hankook rubber, a Recaro seat and a 4-point cage by AutoPower.



Was good to catch up with a good friend after a year of busy family/work lift. His silver FR-S has the Moto-Spec RS-R coiovers and forged TSW wheels.



Series 10 all lite-up and ready for the night roads.



Garfull's gold RPF1 wheels works great on all white Five:AD kit.



NorCalGirl came back out with her KW V3 and Vorslag equipped FR-S. Always good to see her and her brother.

Oh shoot I didn't even realize the dates. I'm going to be in Sonoma for a Scion event so I don't think I can make the meet. I might be too tired, it'd be a sweet night to debut my wheels though.
