Who's here? (Episode M)

[abelardo]

I didn't see the thread until just now fml. I was there I won the sure full3 aeros (not just the sri p057 ) and a blow out valve. I had a lot of fun with the Tampa Nator crew and everyone else I met.
That Asian kid with the lisence plates was so happy to win all of the random shit, none of which other than plates would work on his car. Lol

I also realized that I'm getting pretty old for the import scene. Seems like its mostly cool scene kids.

yea i asked the same dude if they where for sale and he said they sold them over at the SURE vinyl corner. and the fucker just left em out there rubbing them in our faces lol

[bcmurphy87]

Yea the guy that won lives in Tampa. His name is Mike not sure his forum name but a really clean speed3. It scoots for sure. PERM and 5th port FTW

[laracroftmsp]

I was there! I said hello to Raider and a few others I think. My car's the built yeller MSP with the carbon fiber vented hood and black rims. If you saw a chick running around saying hi to everyone with a "I love my mazda" MM shirt and camo skirt, that was me.

[Chimmike]

I saw you detailing the heck out of it

Yeah, I can get OCD like that. I meant to do it a little and then just went overboard like an ass. lol

I didn't know you were built. That's pretty sweet!

yeah, again...meant to mod it a little and went a wee tad overboard with that too. lol

hello, my name is Christine and I'm a mod-a-holic....

[Chimmike]

If I told you how much I've spend on modding cars over the years, i'd probably have a heart attack. turbo'd a 350z, live axle swap on a 94 4runner, 2 custom turbo kits on sentras, this car, motorcycles, etc.

[p057]

ugh same here.

at least it isnt drugs. I mean, those hurt you and your family, risk your health, and get you in trouble with the law frequently.................wait. :|

[Raider]

I still need to load pics. Too much hellaflush there.

[3Gee Tee]

Screw mods, buy guns.

When you don't buy guns, the terrorists win.

Sweet, and you're from PSL. I'm right up in Vero. Saw you going nuts on your car but seemed like you had lots of fans so I didn't get a chance to say hello.

Why you hellaflush hatin? ?

I knew you were going to post something about that eventually. Haha

Just lots of people asking questions and one dude from England that I REALLY couldn't understand to save my life. lol

There's a few of us that live on the Treasure Coast. Steve with the white 323 parked in VIP lives in Vero. Another guy named Krystan with a red MS3 lives by me in PSL. I think there's also one or two others that live either in PSL or by Palm Beach Gardens. I rarely if ever come across another modded MSP or P5 though.

Yeah, I had a chance to meet and speak with Steve. Cool dude. Are there any car meets down your way any more?

pics!











aw fuck it, click the link and see some pics.

[TiGraySpeed6]

Oooops, ya accidentally got my Speed in one of your pics! It was only right on the edge of a panorama shot, but still, standards must be maintained!

Lolz, I'm impressed with just how many MSFers that were there that I managed to not meet... Honestly not sure how I managed that...

Raider, were you the guy walking around with the ipad filming stuff? green shirt I think...

[Raider]

No, as a Mac person, I have to say it was the first time I saw someone do a pic with one, and the look absolutely retarded. my iPad is Gen1, no camera. And now I do not feel bad. Seriously, it was as bad as the hellaflush shit. I mean, fuck, get a goddamn camera.

And I was in a green button-down shirt and beige shorts.

I just uploaded more pics from a local guy, and a pretty badass video. JMOC is the Jacksonville Mazda Owner's Club, my local peeps. The orange and blue 3 is all a vinyl wrap keyed off of the RX-8 racing team design.

[beachshoer]

Yeah I can't believe I missed everybody besides @Raider. We need stickers or nametags or something. Glad to see my old school Mazda emblem painted intercooler made it into the video for a split second. Next time something like this goes down we need a MSF meeting spot. And im a little dissapointed that I was the only one rocking a FYHN sticker. @Raider you don't count yours was after you got there.

Next time ill put a big cock on the IC then I know where all you homos will be.

And yes judging by all the stickers all over the cars and hella flush, im getting to old for this scene too.

[Raider]

I took a pic of your engine bay, but it was all blurry when I got home, weak. Was good to meet you and @itg3rl and yeah, next meet needs name tags.

I think I am getting old too. Music was too loud, and the hellaflush mad me angry. It was a lot like Hot Import Nights, but there was at least a lot of non-shit cars there. HIN was all crap everywhere.

[3Gee Tee]

"If it's too loud, you're too old."

But yeah, music was waaay too loud.

[Kyle Undefined]

Yeah, I totally fucked up this meet. Had to work late, then friends birthday after. Next time I'll be there.

[TiGraySpeed6]

Some of the less sucky pics, my phone is a pic fail & it killed the battery early in the day

[Mi06Speed6]

@Raider looks like you got one of my 6 as well. Little blurry. Talked to TiGray for a bit. Felt like an internet stalker since I already knew just about every project on his car. I don't go to car show much but it def does not help the mod bug.

[p057]

it was sad i had to explain to a couple people what the L2A intercooler was.

Hin usually has copious amounts of hot females as well. We had a few, nothing close though.

And who the Fuck plays country at an import car meet?

[Raider]

I am ok with country. it was a variety, which worked. At least it was not that shitty skrillexxxx techno euro shit that is usually played.

I mean shit, they has Sweet Home Alabama play, as well as Gangnam style. pretty funny.

I personally enjoyed watching the South FL chicas get all ghetto when they wanted to leave early, and forced cars to squeeze back so they could get their taped up white genpus out. That was funny.

I wish I had gotten video of the police dog demo, that was pretty cool.

[beachshoer]

Very. I was surprised you were the only one with one. How do you like it? We have a local speed6 that mounted it in the intake area at an angle. I was wondering what kind of heat you're getting from being mounted on top?

Use both hands on the camera and quick jerking it when you see something as sexy as my engine bay.

it wasnt mine, i was explaining it to other people when i walked by admiring it and they gave puzzled looks and uttering "what the fuck is that?"

Personally I dont think they're very efficient at all (after all that i read) but should be good drag setups due to being able to drop ice and crap right into the reservoir for literally ice-cold cooling.

You mean I missed that Dammit. I was saying @beachshoer, that it was pretty dull. Guess we weren't on the right side of the building. I was asleep in the car if that tells you anything.
Did earrings come out?

BTW, I'll load pics tonight or tomorrow.

[beachshoer]

What the hell was up with the taped up cars anyways?

[3Gee Tee]

I got chu.

[Doberman]

I had to back up 3 times for them to get out. Lucky for them I was sitting in my car. No one knew me so they would have had to get on the intercom.

Originally Posted by beachshoer What the hell was up with the taped up cars anyways?

Tactical rock chip protection. Knew just where the rocks would hit. Lol.

[STRICK-]

I had to help push those 2 cars out of the garage. They were getting out of hand and needed to go like right that second apparently. They went from zero to ghetto in 2 seconds flat.

[Doberman]

The curly haired chick seemed like she was putting out attitude, I didn't see them go ghetto though. I would've enjoyed that.

Strick, which guy were you?

[STRICK-]

She had a bunch of attitude and was said she was leaving one way or another. Whether we helped or not...lol. I had a red team shirt on and Camo shorts. I was probably working the gate when you rolled in. This event went pretty smooth overall and is really just a building block for next years event. Now we know what to do, and what not to do. Turnout will always vary of course too. I saw some nice cars and.some rigged up ones too. It's too be expected with different levels of budget, knowledge and dedication to the cars.

^^^ exactly

And apparently, I missed said ghetto-ness too.

After parking I pretty much knew I wasn't going anywhere with as tight a fit as we had between cars. And I was fine with that because this wasn't my first rodeo. But for some of the others, they should have been prepared to not go anywhere once they got there. The only thing I'd change was A) more ventilation B) LUNCH TRUCKS C) better DJ and D) more toilet paper in the bathrooms...the women's side ran out. lol But other than that, great job.

[p057]

yeah one and only thing that irritated me was the music. I don't know when it became the norm for "DJs" to just crank all the gains up, put the volume on max and blast whatever they felt like playing.

Just a heads up, you know.. all gains up sounds pretty distorted........

it'd be nice if the DJs went down to where people will be standing, and do a soundcheck to make sure you aren't making people's eardrums bleed?



Other than that, i loved the event. it was great and my buds and i had a great time! Easily the best weekend I've had in a few weeks.

[itg3rl]

I was pretty sure I walked past an IPad with a playlist on the screen. It's their first event. Gotta live and learn. Next year I'm sure they'll fine tune everything.

Turn down music
Spread out parking
Cater enough grub
More activities.

They'll get it spot on.
