I'll give it a go, BUT that weekend is our 10th wedding anniversary and I'm under a lot of pressure to change cars :-((((
Matt Harwood

Paul, dare I suggest Max Power? - Tell 'em you've got neons... ;)
Steve, that's bad news. So bad, you've grown some double chins! :(

What's the bad news, being married 10 years :eek: and as for the chins, I've always had them :D
I'll try and make it, I can normally get to 2 or 3 a year (see recent thread about marrage and losing social life) and this sounds like a good one.

I'm assuming your other half wants you to change the Supra?
What you going to get next?

Spot on Matt, she's never really liked it despite me being able 'to get whatever I want' once she got her car.. She was pushing for a Honda S2000 or Saab convertable, but I've got past that hurdle. Jag XK8 (or XKR) is top of her list, and high up on mine, very good for the commuting side, but not too high on the grin factor.
Still, I've had the Surpa for nearly 2 years and it's still getting better (just got the wheels on and a new exhaust), so I think I'll have it for some time to come yet :)
Earthrokka

Yep, I' ll try and make that !and drag along few Jap cars with me. :D

C'mon guys - need to know how many Soops to expect - will be meeting with them next week to make arrangements and need some idea of numbers
This could be a blinding meet!

I'd come, but me car isn't arriving until end May - early June :( Next time!
saw pics of your new car on ScoobyNet. Aero, just in time for the summer. nice one.
I also saw Mycroft rearing his head again! Has he been causing trouble over there.
Yeah - trouble is you can bet it will rain all summer now ;) :( :D
LOL!!!
Mycroft is constantly causing trouble over there ;) - always on about the Soarer (and it being yank based) and how rubbish Jap cars are in general - LOL!! Just makes me laff!! ;)

Yeah, that was the reason I bought it, done the full works on it now with replacing all servicable parts etc, when I get the Supra she's going to be garaged and looked after, you don't see many standard 205's in good condition anymore!

Entrance - One Way system around to the left
'Exhibiting Cars etc please make your self known to organisers asap – we suggest a 10 am arrival'
does that mean us on the list ? Or can we get their whenever and park in zone 12 ?
I might as well dust the cobwebs off the old girl and give her a good seeing to.!
Might even make it too the meet too... :cool:
Depending how bad my hangover is on the Sunday morning, I'll be along at Mimms just before 11.
Ah bugger, just realised, I've got to wash the fecker as well... :( Jet wash, here I come! :D
'Exhibiting Cars
Is this the people that put their names on the list???
If thats the case won't be able to get there until 11ish
Can someone plz clarify and also save me my space :)
Thank you
Dragonball
23-05-03, 17:00
No - exhibiting cars is for those people / traders who are bringing a car or two along to promote their services etc
If they get there too late the allocated spaces may have gone
You lot can get there when you like!:p
However cant promise space if gets really busy - but who knows?

Hah I did the same! I'd washed it and had just finished cutting the bonnet to try and get rid of some of the swirl marks when it started raining. It only lasted about 10 minutes and then was sunny again. So I went back out dried the car off and polished it. Got some very strange looks from the neighbours!
No sooner had I finished, it started absolutely pissing it down :(
......update.....
some bugger must have had a really NICE(!) bonfire last night.....
ash.....ASH..........ASH ! ! !
DOH ! ! :mad:
:( ..............I'm not going,i haven't got any wheels.I sold them:looney: Doesn't look quite the same on blocks.:blink: Al.
Hi Guys
The Misses amd I enjoyed meeting a few more people today.
Nice turn out :) weather was indifferent, but didn't wreck the day too much.
Couple of pics from the day :)
http://www.imagestation.com/search/albums.html?StartRow=1&x=15&y=7&Type=Albums&MaxRows=10&Criteria=Bracknell
Yeah I had a nice day too, nice to see a few of you again. Got left behind while I was buying some redbull in south mimms, think they were all scared of me hehe
Had a great drive with Steve W on the way back, very fun
Got beaten by a motorbike which sucked but I did have a porky passanger hehe and mr motorbike gave me a wave too, so all's fair in love and war :D
Was taking it easy for a bit on the m4 as I decided I wanted some petrol left when I saw a 190mph flying Oranage go zooming past, scared the hell out of us all! Lovely colour though Leon :D
All in all a good day, glad Ali didn't make it as he'd of only laughed at my missing skirt :D
Video maybe on the way if I can work out a way to get my divx's smaller! :D
a big slap on the back for Paul E, great event, fairly well marshalled (skylines in with the Supras, whatever next) and reasonable weather.
Would liked to have seen some real food in the Supra Cafe but then perhaps thats just me.
Roll on the next one.
JB
There was a funny black car being sucked along behind that orange thing...
Leon and myself were going at a fair rate most of the way back but I had the radar detector so I wasnt worried..until I noticed I had unplugged it. Luckily enough it was back on before we hit the variable speed limits up to the M40, you all know they are running live cameras on the M4 to M40 stretch of the M25 now?
great day out, well done to Paul E.
JB
Ahh it was you was it :D
I saw ya filling up at Shell in St Albans I think, you may of heard Bob and I go past together :D
I heard a Supra go past while filling up but thought it couldnt be you guys as you would be going up the M1...
Leon and myself had been reasonably sedate until we went past you.
JB
John, what do you mean by 'live cameras'?
The Chinese chicken sandwiches were very nice imho :)
garethrees
25-05-03, 18:25
Yep, thanks Paul for arranging it, sorry I had to leave a bit early,
Most people behaved, apart from a few I noticed about 3:30pm (on my way to the DuMP), were racing each other up and down the 40mph dual carriageway,
There was a big crowd of people, cheering, as I went by with a boot full of c*ap at 38mph.

The Gantry Gatso's between the M4 and M40 are now live, they have been for a few months, like the M4 - M3 - Gatwick section. Its been extended to the M40.
Oh, those have been on and off for a while, I remember someone mentioning those being on when we were last at Boxhill.
couple of 'small' snaps on me web-thingy......
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/s.wheatley/BRACKNELL/
(big versions available......... Leon? Bobbeh?.... ME!?:p )
Looks like a good turnout!
Any more pictures of Leon's car Steve?
sorry mate, only the 2 snaps....
BUT, I'm POSITIVE there are more on other peeps cameras :sly:
It seemed to 'draw' the lens's it's way ? ?
I'll just pop and swap the 'side' one of his for the full size (or just
add it on) have a look in a mo'.....
Glad to hear you all had a good day out, while I was doing sum work......u bunch of Part timers....;) :D
Andy, ur a lucky man, but lets hope someone has some piccies of it......:sly: :D
JB, sorry about payment, but will have to post it to you now, very sorry.....:thumbs:
Oh and Andy, watch out next time...I want that rear wing of your's.....:D
Jeeezus, yup thats certainly a LARGE image!
mmmmm... that's why I make 'em smaller to post/host(?)
takes too long otherwise.. even with Broadband !
(BUT, don't like taking small ones in case I want good
quality later:( )
'sides...... I LIKE 'EM BIG ! ! !
thanks Paul, great event, my first in fact. Nice turnout of Supras, Leon's car was striking, so much so that my car looked more like an escort mk2 in comparison.
Great fun, well organised.

Paul, just in case you dont pick up my message on the other brackers thread, thanks for a well organised event, was my first supra meet and will be sure to attend as many as poss.
great day, Leons car detracted everyone from looking at my sleak black highly polished (at 8am today I might add) jspec, how could they!

Thanks for getting along guys - great Supra turnout!
Someone bought along a cheap orange one - seemed to think he knew a thing or two about Supras - bloody newbie upstart!! :p
Numbers by 14.30 were 375 cars - and then they stopped counting - so well chuffed that it was well attended
Some nice motors inc GTR's and Nissan Primeras! Good MR2 showing
Dude managed to get Fisherjohn's second turbo problem sorted - result...but not his own yet!:(
Phil - tried some of that Neilsons - bloody brill stuff m8 - thanks
Any pics gratefully received
Cheers
Paul:cool:
Guys, cant wait till we get those stickers off Branners for membership, might then be able to figure who's cars are off the BBS.
Andy, Bobbeh and Gareth, would have been good to meet ya.
The only faces I put to name was, Phill (Term), Phill 'the fixer' and John (Fisher).
All the others I have meet before/know, good to see you again guys.
Who was the chap that has jold sold their Supra for a 98 Gun Metal Supe, the only other from mine at the meet, sorry have forgot your name again already, bad I know.......
It was good to see John working for a change, although he was trying to steal the GF's fags at one point, tut, tut, you've quit.
And Paul maybe you should go buy yourself a descent battery, so it wont go flat and then embaress (Spelt ?) the Supras by having to jump it, and buy some jump leads as well save you having a dig about my broken set, cheek of it, still he is old !!!!!!
Sounds like a good turnout,has anyone got any pics?? Al.
Who's is the PPS Bodytech one???
Rich, was you there ??? Was that your Honda at the front round to the left, back end parked in backwards.
Have you seen the Type R outside Kings road take away in South Ham, have been chatting to the young lad that owns it, Dan or Danny is his name. You might have seen it, as its got Apexi down the wing and onto the bonnet, he's got some Apexi AFC on the dash as well. Seems to know a lot regarding the Jap scene.
Great meet.
More pics here......

Nice Pics, shame they left my REG number on the photo! they blanked all the Lexus ones... :twak:
Well at least the only Supra that made it in those photos was my little remote controlled version, great little pretrol version he had, a few people wanted a drag race between them, but I have seen how quick those little petrol ones can go, some young kid round my way has one, made me look stupid !!!!!! :(

It belongs to Mark from Eurospec - but he wasn't there yesterday - Airspeed / PPS use it as a show car

Thanks for a great day Paul.

Hey Bobbeh, I did not see you or your soop ? I really wanted to see your new Veilside addition.
I guess I'll have to wait for the photo's.

http://www.japmobiles.com/japukmeets/icon_smile_shy.gif You got it from the right side!! \o/
thanks bud :D
NO WAY - I got down on my hands and knees in the wet to take a look a Steve's new NUR (Very nice Steve) but, did not look across at the other - DOH!
Very nice Andyp, liked the twin HKS RSK's.
I guess you'll have to wait till Billing then or if you bump into us down the Pod sometime :) Silly boy Pete! ;)
Bobbeh, your Veilside exhausts looks the nuts. Is it Cat back or a full system.
If not full when you decatting geaser :)
I have to say, that black r34 gtr was an absolute b**tard ! of a car !
Nice pics Peter ;) :)
Its cat back, single pipe. I dont have any plans for de-cat, no point as I cant drive the damn thing for another 9 months so I think the BHP is ample for my Dad as it is.

I have a couple of shots of it.
PETE, I'd forgot ALL about doing them Panoramic shots ! ! !
My Digi-Camera takes 'em superbly (read up on it when I first
got it !) since then I'd forgotten . . . . DOH ! ! !
MUST use it at next meets......
SOMEONE REMIND ME (NOT now you lemons...THEN ! !)

Pete, top photo of the group, luv it........Although you chopped half of me out :(
You did scroll along Ash ? I see all of you and another couple of cars beyond.;)
What a prat, cheers mate, funny thing that sliding bar along the bottom, never knew what it did, something I could imagine Dude saying.
Ash,
I did not take it, I got it off the UKSOG site.
Pete, whats SOG, probably a dumb arse question.
And your supposed to say "Cheers mate, took me ages to cut those photos together". :D

Big thanks to Paul E, although that won't save him from me posting the pick of him being jump started when i can find it :)

Craig.
I saw them appear beside me and didnt recognise it as a car from Mimms so assumed they had caught up with us. Saw them come off at 18 and realised it wasnt one of us, just some random supra. The blonde certainly had a good look at the cars, must have been a shock to find 15 jap motors all around them.
I also didnt realise the Cossie was with us, I tried to race him coming on to the m25 at Mimms but he wouldnt play.

Cossie...That'll be the one that was smoking then !
I followed him for a bit but the smog was too much and i had to overtake...
I think he booted it off from one of the civic's and then got overtaken again quite quickly so he decided not to play...
I managed to drive the whole way home on my own without a single sniff of action.... How depressing !
Craig.
Steve, what is your camera....
It's a Canon PowerShot G2.
ANY 4 MegaPixel Camera takes 'em that BIG.
ANY 'decent-make' 4Meg will take 'em that CLEAR
(the better lenses DO make a difference - I've tried !)
the only thing with the G2 is it's fairly small but has most of the
'control' features of one of the bigger Digi-Cameras =
manual aperture/exposure etc and it can take RAW files
( RAW are, as the name suggests, 'RAW' data files which contain
FAR MORE information than the normal photo files... ie TIF/BMP/
JPG.... only the best cameras take RAW files........
UNFORTUNATELY, RAW files then have to be converted on the
computer before use, and that takes quite a while.....so, in the
end, as I take lots of 'snaps' I've ended-up taking mostly
the large/uncompressed JPG's - they still print PHOTO quality
up to 10x8 - A4 )
.......errrrrrr..... sorry lads.........bit boring that......... I'll bog off now....:(

No mine is still at PPS Automotive (also PPS Bodytech which is why I was asking), all the parts have arrived after lots of problems with Honda UK, so it is getting put back together now.
Currently driving a clapped out 206 GTi
Haven't popped onto the forum for a while which is why it's taken me so long to get back.

Thx, thought it may have been Mark's last time I saw it int the metal it was black, Pete said it had been resprayed.
guys,
was great to finally meet some of the faces on the board and to meet Mr D, who whilst living about 5 minutes from my front door I had never seen until that day. Was fun on the way down with him behaving on the motorway until the bmw's went past .....
Had to get back early though so didn't get to talk to many of you - but completed the 'spot the branners' competion and slipped him my tenner.
look forard to the next meet !
Paul
Hi guys,
Finally got my piccies from Sunday sorted out. I have tried to remove all of the numberplates, so if anyone spots one that is still readable, let me know and I will get rid of it ASAP: -
Bouncing Bullet Gallery (http://www.bouncingbullet.com/gtirgallery.html) (Just click on 'Bracknell May '03' down at the bottom)
If you want any Hi-Res copies of any of the pics, drop me a mail. Some of them make great desktop wallpaper :cool:
Cheers, James

Yay for number 53 :lalala:, although you got the side with the missing skirt! :D
Cool pics!
ha ha Andy at least you got a skirt off :)
Dave
EVERYBODY got the side without the skirt on it, dont know how they did it. Still looks good though. Are you with the RX7 club?
JB
Yes mate, member of FDUK, however I will be joining the Supra club too as it gives me something to do in my lunch breaks and you're all so nice :hug:
Was interesting how they all got that side hehe
And Dave... I don't want people seeing me without my skirt, it's just rude :innocent:
Andy, we are the Rx-7 moles on this board!! :)
Dave
moles... I was thinking more Lions... classy beasts :D
there was no car parked next to it that side so you can get a better photo
i did not want the mondeo in the photo
hehe it's amazing how many people don't realise its missing (which is a good thing) though that blue vent is a little strange. Hopefully should be back on in a few weeks looking back to its former glory :)
when its done mate you will have the worlds most expensive side skirt!!
Dave
somminc to spend me money on I guess, better than heroin :p
I'm glad you got one of that Ralliart Evo'... the red Special Edit'
I'm not a great fan of Scoobs/Evos, but, for some reason
that one 'tickles my fancy' ! ! - just looks really smart(?)
i have some more photos of them Evos from the NEC
http://community.webshots.com/scripts/editPhotos.fcgi?action=viewall&albumID=50266137
