And again, same time same place...

Looking like a constant 2nd Tuesday of the month thingy.

I'll bring my car this time. Just bought my FMIC but it wont be on as i haven't got an exhaust yet :rolleyes:

With me will be a scooby, supra, and of course 180sx...

Will be looking at passing my Baliey on to a lucky owner (anyone).....

Micheal - you know you need one :cool:

We need more !more!:wack:
COME ON GUYS WE NEED MORE S14S S13S AS THE TURN OUT WAS 16 200SX AND THE SCOOBYS ALMOST EQUALLED THAT.

This could be huge :D

I'm going to try and make it. Been lurking since the old board and am finally on the lookout for an S13 - may even have one by then :)

Working in London that day so may not make it till 8ish.

This will be my 1st meet so I hope you'll all be as friendly in person as you are on the board :)

I'll probably be turning up in the volvo - please don't hold that against me ;)

around here i guess,

I'll try to make it down, i would think it'll be hard to miss all the 200s there

I'll be the one who blatenly looks out of place there as it'll be my first meet :D

Matty2Fatty - don't worry, we'll look lost and bemused together as it will be my 1st time as well and I don't know anyone either.

I'll be getting there a bit late - about 8ish.

Any S13 owners there beware - I have a lot of newbie questions :rolleyes: ;) :D :D

Hates_
31-08-2003, 21:16
I'll try my best to get there, although I don't know how long its going to take me, as I finish work at 5:30 and will be coming from central London, so I'll be fighting the rush hour home on the M4 :cry:

JC

Justin,

I'm driving from Surrey on Tuesday so I'll come straight round the M25. Other wise yah I'd love another 'slow':rolleyes: convoy:thumbs:

Are you going to TRAX on Sunday?

***:nod:

Chris B
01-09-2003, 16:39
All S13s are welcome, we need more S13s :D
Any questions on location or times etc just PM me, it's dead easy to find by the way.
Newbie S13 questions are always welcome :)
Can we all try to make it a bit organised this time please, if this meet continues to grow at the same rate as it did last time it could get very disorganised if we are not careful.

ie If S13's could park in the same sort of area, S14A's all together etc, and as usual no S14 will turn up :rolleyes: , depending what room the Scooby boys leave us of course (they keep turning up too early).

It would be great if we could get all the 200SX in one line between McDonald's and the end of the car park.

Has anyone spoken to Banzai or Jap Performance yet?

def
01-09-2003, 17:19

Can't make Trax due to prior arrangement :(

I'll try to get there for about 7(ish), traffic pending, it'll be a bluey/silver s13, with a guy who looks lost behind the wheel & clutching a camera & notepad.

Another Tadley boy who will try and be there. Jolly hope to see you there.

I'm a new boy though, so don't expect much!!! except questions (and unscratched car.... I hope ;))

Jolly F
05-09-2003, 07:39
No probs. I'm easy to notice from the rest. I'm the good looking one :D

What you have S13 or S14???

Colour etc...

grumpy
05-09-2003, 09:34
White S13, stock looks... so far, and doubt the goose or spoiler will be fitted by then.

Sig was more in hope than expectation, but see what I can get done at the weekend.

Looking forward to this one guys. Hopefully have some shiney bits to show off.

Justin - I promise I'll bring a 10mm ring spanner this time and I'll treat you to the de-bunged Blitz Nur experience.....:smash:

Jolly F
05-09-2003, 11:06
I've been meaning to talk to you. I'm getting a zorst next week i think :rolleyes:

What difference did the car make with just the half system, loudness?

And how much difference/loudness did de-catting make...

Just trying to understand performance difference.

Anyway, what shiney things you dark horse :D

Running with the cats in, the Blitz was not that loud so I took the bung out and it was a bit louder than standard.

Decatting made a huge difference, I run it everyday with the bung in and just take it out for showing off/rr days (It gives me about 1psi extra boost with it out). With the bung it it's VERY loud.

I managed to get myself first in the queue for Brens induction box (cos I was on the phone to him just before he picked them up). Should be arriving Monday morning so hopefully be on for the meet.

Chris B
05-09-2003, 12:46

Paul, make sure you bring your S13 too, we need more S13s people :D
C'mon S13 owners :whip: get your arse to Reading on Tuesday evening, it's going to be crazy :thumbs:

Jolly F
05-09-2003, 12:49
Cheers NikB,

I was more interested about performance gains between standard - half system - half system & decat.....

Good to see that induction box, wonder if there easy to make. Might bring a ruler with me ;)

The sound of the blitz isn't a prob at the mo cause on tuesday i'll hear it. Be good to go down the road with and without it.

It will be good to feel the difference between the cars too...

Obviously yours is quicker until i get my FMIC:p

Phil L
05-09-2003, 12:59
might make this one...depends if I'm in london or not that day...

Jolly F
05-09-2003, 13:09
If anyone's around Heathrow and wants to come the old mans leaving work about 6ish!!! Incase your not sure how to get there...

Hes done the boost upgrade on the 180 and can't stop talking about it. He's getting so carried away i think hes questioning that his is quicker than mine. I'll solve this on they way back from the meeting ;)

Advanced Warning for S13's, This is what I'll be bugging you about ;)

TPS - where is it and how do I use my multimeter to check continuity (ChrissyB for this one I think :thumbs: )
Exhausts - listen to some and find out which one is rumbly lovely but not too loud on motorway cruising speed
Airbox Mods - checkout some of the options
Dials - White or black face and whether to mount in cubby hole or centre vents
Sunroofs - my replacement one is still not right - need to compare with others
Squeaky, squeaky birds in wheels - is it bearings or pads? I guess you experts will know

Please don't run away if you see me walking towards you on Tuesday night :D

(I'll be leaving South Kensington at about 6:30, should be with you by 8pm after I pop home quickly on the way out to the meet)

I'll be washing mine tonight too. I waxed it on Wednesday so hopefully I'll have a little shine left. If not I'll have to break out the quick Clearkote Quick Polish :D

sabrex

I will have rally dirt splashed up the side arches at the back to hide the dents !

i will polish 1 large round circle on my front bonnet and leave the rest

Chris B
08-09-2003, 11:50
I'm going to wash my car tomorrow after work, if the weather is decent I'll probably polish her in the Comet car park, OK I'm sad, but I've not polished it before and I've had it 8 months now :wack:
I should be there around 6pm ish.
When the Scoobies turn up we can tell them that we have moved the event to a different car park, then at 8pm someone can go where we sent them and tell them we are actually using the original car park ;) :p :D

All S13s are welcome from Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire or wherever :nod:

Will this be the first one that a S14 attends?

BTW - that's a very nice sig pic Sabrex :thumbs:

Jolly F
08-09-2003, 12:41
Yep! Industrail estate just past Majeski stadium. MC D's is just a land mark, and if you get hungry its very useful. There is a KFC there too.....

How many motors this time? i'll go for 65??????

;)

08-09-2003, 12:50
I'm gonna head down there for about 6ish. Either that or I'l have to sit in rush hour trafffic for the trip:(

It's just north of Junction 11 of the M4. I haven't been before but looking at the map it shouldn't be too hard to find.

I'm heading back to Carshalton afterwards if you're going that way, it could make for a more entertaining drive?

***:nod:

Jolly F
08-09-2003, 14:54
From Junction 11. Head into reading, go across a few roundabouts, all dual carrigeway. Go past majeski stadium, can't miss it, then on you left you'll see the industrial estate, Comet, Homebase, KFC, Mc D's and a load of cars.

You simply turn left onto a slip road taking you into the industrial estate...

Its so easy even i could find it, and thats saying something :rolleyes:

Be good to see you all...

Phycosis - you don't have a Bren exhast do you?

200sxer - want to hear what your goose sounds like...

Getting excited now. Lets hope the weather is good :nod:

Psycosis
08-09-2003, 18:37
I don't have a Bren zorst, but its mega loud.

In that case do you fancy going up there in convoy?

I'm due to finish work at 3pm (might be able to get away before:rolleyes: )

I was planning on heading up that way at about 4.30 - 5 to avoid the rush hour traffic and to get there for about 6pm:D

Hates - cheers for the sound trial but i want to hear a S14 with goose. Is there much difference in sound between the models. I'll have to wait and see...

Michael - I'll be there close to 6 as possible. Hopefully before. But wanted a pizza or Mc D's etc....

Washed my car last night. Just found out i'm going to Glouster today :rolleyes: Thing is some dolly bird washed her screen and the front of my car this morning anyway, so i'll have to rewash it any way :p

Anyone getting excited, if so, get a life :D

It's on the A33 (40mph limit) dual carriageway into Reading from J11 of the M4, it's really simple to find from there and only about half a mile from J11.
It's on the far South side of Reading for anyone coming South.
In the massive car park there is:
MacDonalds, MacDonalds,
Kentucky Fried Chicken and a
Pizza Hut
Lol, the fast food song :rolleyes:

Any news on Jap Performance?
I have a feeling there may be more than 100 cars turning up tonight :)

I'm washing my car after work, waiting for a mate, then should be nearing Comet around 6pm, I'll probably bring polish and stuff with me, coz my car needs it.
Looks like the weather will hold up nicely.
See you all there :nod:

You're not wrong. I just got off the phone to a friend from B'mouth and mentioned in passing that I was going to a club meet in Reading tonight. His reply.....

"Oh yeah, is that the one by the stadium?"

Me: "Feckin hell!, yeah. How did you know about it?"

My mate "It's all over the FTO forum, there are quite a few going"

This thing is going to be HOOOOGE:notworthy :notworthy :notworthy fair play to the guys for organising it!

You've done yourselves proud guys.
I think we'll probably have to speak to the car park guys and get permission from whoever owns the car park soon though coz if it really is as big as I think it will be then they could get a bit funny about it, and we certainly don't want to spoil such a good thing.

Mad Meat :wack: :D very good Justin.:notworthy

Reading Japanese Performance Car Meet? RJPCM or something similar?
I've never heard of anything like this happening in Reading before so it really should have it's own name etc.

Should have said hello fella! It's always nice to put a face to a name:wave:

Jolly F, Mike (McCAULEY), Si T and anyone else who assisted in organising a MASSIVE Well done

it was absolutely brilliant.

Met loads of peeps I'd never met before and saw some really quality cars.

For the first time I can think of the 200's outnumbered the Scoobies:eek:

There was a huge turn out of Hundies (well done folks)

Nice to see all the usual suspects (Grazor, JC200SX, Bean ExS14, ChrissyB):wave:

And a big hi to all the new guys I met (JollyF, Mike McCauley, Si T, 200SXer, NikB, Psycosis, Steve S14a, Ritchie):wave:

And I mustn't forget Kev S14 who had a cracking run up the M4 with me (the 4' flames were a REAL spectacle)

Apologies to anyone I've forgotten to mention (Dave, Karfu and a couple of others whose board names I can't remember)

It was a cracking night and even the Old Bill seemed quite chilled out. (they scared the scrabble brigade away too:thumbs: )

I've got a cracking piccie of the R34 owner who turned up late getting a bollocking from the Olb Bill for making too mch noise.

The copper introduced himself with the line "Ahhhh, it's you again!"

It appeared they were quite familiar with each other:wack:

Once again well done guys, cheers

So that was you!

I'll stick the pictures I took on Imagestation but I'll warn everyone now they're bloody awful:mad:

I'm gutted.:cry: but I've learnt three important lessons about my digital camera....

1) When using the flash avoid number plates as the reflection often overwhelms the picture.

2) When taking pictures in low light without the flash keep the camera REALLY still due to the longer exposure or it comes out all blurred.

3) Get a new feckin digital camera, cause this thing is shite:annoyed:

Hello and :thumbs: up to everyone who came to the Reading meet! Really good turn out and so many 2*****s!

Hello to ChrissyB and his mate who I was talking to whilst slightly delerious after a hard day at work! me --> :sleep:

Hello to Kevin and ***** and Michael who I spoke to, and Syman and Richie who I saw, but didn't get a chance to chat to. Also hello to the owners of the 300ZXs who I had a brief chat to, and to all the others that I have forgotton.

Respect to all those that made a long journey :thumbs: (I only have to come 4 miles :rolleyes: ). I hope that you are all able to make it again because it really was a great turnout, and it was good to speak to some new faces.

It was a top night. Thanks Michael etc....

A big thanks to 200sxer for letting me take out his lovely motor, checking out his exhaust and supension. Those alloy facias are looking top notch too...

Maverick - Thanks for the run in your car too, fantastic breaks, and a lovely car indeed. Sorry i missed you before you went. The AGX's really work well...

NikB for the unbunged experiance of a NUR Spec...

***** - Top bloke, who even gave me a bit a pizza...

And all the rest of the guy's....

I need to know who has the car Reg P491 XXX....

You were launching serious flames from your exhaust. Any closer and you'd have melted my bumper. Look fantastic......

Until the next time :thumbs:

It was a great meet, I didn't realise so many cars would turn up.

I don't know many of the 200sx guys now cos I've not been to many meets, a fine selection of cars on display last night.

Had some fun showing NikB how a Pulsar handles... :D

Good to see everyone. We had a quality showing from the club. I do think we need some S14s though.

Justin, glad you enjoyed the drive. I guess you'll be putting a few of those mods onto your car, eh? :D Sorry I didn't say bye; I couldn't see where you were when I had to leave. But it's lucky I did leave when I did because it started raining when I was almost home, and I would not have been able to play with Matt and his Scooby P1 if it was wet!!!

I'll do some resizing of pictures and host them at some stage.

Congrats to all that attended, you make this meet what it is :thumbs:

Hi Hates_ I didn't get to chat to as many people as I wanted to, but it's a bit strange when you don't know anyone. Qdos (Dave?? sorry mate, I've a brain like a seive) showed me round his car (liked the sleepy eyes :thumbs: ) and ChrissyB looked over mine for me (thanks for pointing out the steering rack movement :thumbs: ) He even went to get a torch to check out the engine bay in the dark - Thanks mate, I really appreciate your help.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make the next one :( A client booked me to be in Edinburgh the next day before I had chance to block the date out of my diary.

See you in December ;)
