Muhahaha it's going to be awesomeness! I can't wait, and I can't wait till Saturday or next Saturday or the Saturday after that, and the Saturday after that... and... yeah we got nothing else planned after that as of right now hahaha.

So I went to the bank today, and the cute girl teller told me I smell like the abercrombie store hahaha. I just got back, it's a hot day today. I saw a 5th gen Celica Alltrac wannabe. It was a coupe with an Alltrac hood and a gtfour RC front bumper. Gosh who puts GTfour front ends on anything but a Hatchback these days, sheeesh! . And... no other news. I gotta get my car smog checked, perhaps I'll do so today. I still gotta swing by my friend's gargae and purchase some gifts that I've been lagging on purchasing for awhile now. Yes, very late Christmas gifts . [url="java script:emoticon("][/url]

Ummm ok no other updates. Let's have fun at this meet .

[xs94st]

curve is nice, used to use curve 'crush' and my bro is all about that very sexy. matter o fact, my bro has so many damn colognes that he can use a new one each day of the week..n more i like bvlgari's aqva as well as burberry london

ne-ways, looks like this will be fun. i jus wanna have boba, that would be a meet enough for me

[MaskedMan]

Oooo i like boba . Hmm about colonge I don't have enough to use a different one everyday haha. I used to use Cool Water by Davidoff and Hugo boss. Arg ok back on track hahaha. I'm sure we will have enough time to grab Boba later on in the day. I'm not sure if a Scandinivian themed park will have boba or not .

oo oo! bling? what do you mean bling! I wanna know! Interiors excite me! Speaking of interiors, Marco, yours is going under a complete makeover, but I forgot to order all the switches so we'll have to go buy some on Saturday. But as for everything else, I think we are all set. I will want to buy some wiring tomorrow or saturday . I would like to get some 16 gauge and some fuses possibly. We are going to do the most cleanest set up in your car Marco .

well, probably gonna subtly paint my dash pieces, leather my middle console area, leather some other stuff up, and increase the lighting inside of the dash as well as the dome light. if i drop something in my car in the middle of the night i have to look at the black hole of my leather seats/floor and won't find what i'm looking for :\ i just saw a writeup in eurotuner about replacing the dome/accessory lights with bright LEDs. made a world of a difference inside

also, i gotta fix my hatch cuz i took off my spoiler and i gotta fill/sand it down n smooth it out cuz the guy before me didn't buy a decent mounting kit with the spoiler and therefore pretty much effed up the trunk. maybe i'll just put my spoiler back on to temporarily cover up the damages..but it looks so nice without one

i still need to get that black hood from craig..been laggin on that too.

derrick do you know if the toyota dealerships will beat online prices for OEM toyota parts? i remember somebody saying that they did, however i think he was in canada :\

yeah I've entered. Where are you coming from? maybe we can roll in together 6GC style .

O.K. guys it's official I now have my Long Beach Grand Prix tickets. Keep me posted on the other meet though, if it is reschedualled. Hey Marco and Derrick are you working on your rides this weekend? Let me know because Victor and I might be available to hang.

HAPPY FRIDAY-

I think we can price match the part at Longo Toyota. I remember a guy coming in and asking about that. I think they need a printed reciet or quote or something like that so that they can price match it. With my discount I can usually get parts for cheaper than the online price, but only for OEM parts, not TRD parts. TRD parts are usually exspensive anywhere.

Yes, you should definatly come out and visit . We will fly you out here, but unfortunatly, your Celica will have to stay on the island . (unless you want to ship it out here too). You know, I would really really really like to go to Hawaii some day. Ofcourse not just for the Celica meets, but it seems like a really great place to live. About scheduling the meets, I know what you mean . Hmm so far no updates on the 6gc, just trying to make it track standards, and for that to be done, I need to get a roll caged welded in just because I'm a convertible. How lame is that. The minimal requirement is the 4 point cage. I'm going to put the 4 point cage with a harness bar, just because I will still be driving the car on the street. I'm going to need to take the Lambo doors off because it could be a track safety issue when competing in events. There's really no rule about it, but it's just for personal reasons. Hmm.. other than that, my body shop guy has been hiding so I haven't been able to talk to him about the body repairs and paint job yet. My Spoiler is starting to annoy me ever since Marco said something about it. So I will probably take that off when I have time to make a custom one. And.. Curren tails are in my trunk, just waiting for the car to be painted first. And... yeah, I think that's about everything I'm doing before I move. Whatever I don't use on my car will go to waste basically. And... I'm taking my car to get smog checked tomorrow . Early in the morning, then some family stuff, and then some Marco stuff. Also... I think there's one more major thing I'm doing to my car, but I don't recall right now... Hmmm oh well, I'll let you know when it's all done . Sleepy time for Derrick.

[xs94st]

derrick i forget u have an s2k. hows that runnin? i keep reading modifiedmag/whatever import mags and they keep showin up lol. n john u should jus fly over and roll with us if you ever get a chance. that would be tight. if i ever go to hawaii, which i probably will, i'll be sure to hit yall up. maybe the next mod i do to the celi will be to turn it into a boatcar lol

It's good, but It should be gone within the next month. It's an amazing car, but it's just too amazing as is and has too much potential. I just don't have the same inspiration to work on it as I have with my Celica. The Celica is the underdog, it's different than what all the other guys in magazines are doing. With the s2000, I would have to do SOOOO much to it just to be noticed or different, but in the end it will just still be just another s2000 ya know? When people look at these higher end cars like Supras, RX-7 or even the Alltrac. Yes, they turn heads, but you have to ask yourself why they turn heads. Is it because any hard work you put into the car? Probably not, to them, your just another Supra or RX-7, they take their pictures and don't even care to know who the driver or builder is. But my Celica has become it's own image, when people see my car, they know it's MY car. There's never a question of "oh I thought I saw you driving on this street today." When people around here see my Celica, there's no doubt about it. Sometimes my friends will say, "Oh hey, I saw a Celica just like yours the other day." And I can say with confidence, "No. No you didn't ".
