Yeah I know
I lost count of the amount of times I told him that they were all toyotas and not Ferrari/Porsche/Lotus/Holden/Ford etc etc (he watches too much top gear lol)

I know the feeling, a little kid called my car a Ferrari. What a ****!
But seriously, you cant please everyone. What was your car btw?

Mine is the red SR20DET Sprinter......

Sure, It's not a Toyota engine, but my car will out preform most cars there, and people still knock it???????

[1JZ-Rolla]

I couldn't help but to over hear all the haters hating my car....... Alot of negitive comments throughout the day... Tough crowd!!!!
I guess some Toyota fans are purists, who cant accept anything differant...... Shame really......

meh /....... can't see why you'd give a sh1t, unless you bought an SR20 AE86 just to impress other people? Which I'm sure you didn't . I bet nobody complains about it at the track!

Even the toughest and most meticulously prepared cars cop criticism....... its just the way of the world unfortunately hey, opinions are like assholes, everybody has one, and they are all full of shit



Stitty: What's the back-story to your Fonzy pose? LOL

[JoJo]

I dont care at all Phil, it just annoys me that Toyota enthusiests can bag out others cars at such an event.....
One of them was actually funny, and couldn't help but laugh. This father and his young boy walked up and stuck their heads in the engine bay and the father said to his son "Nah, this one is just a stock ADM". And within a second, they moved on with literally just a split second glimse at the engine bay.... FATHER OF THE YEAR!

Anyway, I still really enjoyed the day of course, lets not put a sour taste in this thread and leave it at that......

It's Stitty, of course he is possessed. The question you should be asking is "by what this time?".

The cars look awesome fellas, nice work all round!

I'm not a fan of sprinters but after seeing those that turned out for toyotafest I can certainly see the attraction. I didn't see one that I wouldn't be proud to own. You sprinter owners sure know how to build a car. Jojo, I'm not sure which one was yours but I wouldn't take stock in the remarks you heard. Build the car you want and stuff every one that doesn't like it.

I agree with this. A great amount of quality detail and effort go into a lot of the AE86 owners scene, and it was great to see so many period correct and modified classic Toyota's. I never paid that much attention to em but this year I had a good look at them, I quite liked em more so than just all the internet AE86 photos that parade my Facebook walls.

Ha, Ha, I think that was me and my Nephew really SORRY, I didn't mean to offend! I was actually looking for original Jap under bonnet decals that's why I was so quick. I liked your car and checked it out earlier in the day. I had the white AE82 FX-GT and trust me I've coped more shit than most over the years mainly due to it being a FWD and why didn't you get an AE86 cause its RWD ect I even got abused at the Allstars show a few weeks ago for having Rota wheels on my car. But at the end of the day as long as your happy who really gives a rats! overall I reckon all the cars there were brilliant and it was good to see such a great turnout. A huge thanks goes out to the Toymods guys and for making me feel so welcome! Can I still keep the father of the year award?

Here's a link to the pics I took on the day.

Bagging out Nissans is just part and parcel of being a Toyota owner....most of it is in jest though.

this. Don't take it too much to heart For what it's worth I thought the SR20 sprinter was fantastic! Matter of fact, all of the AE86's that came along were top notch, good to see a few turn up as it seems they've been sorely lacking from the last few shows

[TheStitt]

God dam photo blockage at work I can't see the pics of me.. Will comment later.

Don't stress JoJo

That was an awesome show and it was nice to need sunscreen for a change. Alot of awesome cars on display and I was pumped to get the wagon there in this build for the first time.

I was sitting back and enjoying all the 2J comments the mighty 7M was getting.. hehehe

Already looking forward to next year. I have stuff planned

[Andrew162]

At the carwash the night before the show, poor Stittmeister couldn't put the rag and the metal polish away. Glad you finally got it sorted on the day, and I hope no one got their grubby nubbies on that very lickable/likeable shiny engine bay.

Does part of the 'stuff' for next year include a paintjob?
