Damn, 1JZ Rolla, your A70 is so nice man! Well done

[DLA11D]

Totally forgot about Toyotafest
Good to see another successful show hosted and the weather was well behaved.
Hopefully next year i will have something new to bring along.

Thanks Shane. Still needs a set of those SP1 Professors that you had for sale a while back Shame they won't clear the brakes now.

Cheers

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

'sif. Stitty doesn't have enough time to polish both the billet wheels AND the paint! haha

[Toy77]

But Stitty has a 'partner' now... can get twice as much stuff polished in the same time

[1JZ-Rolla]

But he upgraded "partner" to "fiancee", which generally means in relation to cars, that the migration from enthusiastic participant to occasional attendee has begun

My son & I had a great day at the show, I was sunburnt pretty badly but it was worth it. My son took some photos on the day and Im pretty sure he managed to get all the cars in the show + some other bits and pieces he found fascinating, if you are interested take a look here

Champion! Someone actually took photos of my car, despite it being covered in 950km worth of wildlife, dirt, and brake dust.

Cheers EII10T.

PS. That's a very tidy MA61 you've got there!

Thanks heaps - Your son son is a great photographer - He should get a job as a pro photographer.

Congratulations for three in a row Elliot

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.

mate us AE86 owners came of the wood work on sunday! i knew of 3 definate and i certainly wasnt expecting 15 odd of them to turn up (7 in the show, and 8 turned up through the day) and at least half of them id never seen before or met before.
i went and chatted to most of them (i missed jojo though) and all were completely different in almost everyway.

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???????

that thing was rad!
question though JOJO was this the red autosalon spec car that was for sale for aaaaaaages ago?

Hi Elliot,

Great to hear you both enjoyed the show and a big thanks to your son for snapping a few shots of my slightly rusty ST Celica.

[GUN METAL]

Big thanks to everyone that organised the day and to everyone who showed up.

I appreciate all the time and effort that goes into orgaising and running a day like this.

The thing i like just as much as seeing all the awesome cars and the sheer variety was all the great people that i had the privilage to see and speak with.


To all those i hadnt met before it was great to hear about your car and the joy it brings you.

To all those that i probly hadnt seen for 12 months or possibly a lot longer it was great to see your face and have a short catch up. So many people i have known for such along time and follow what they have been up to on the forum but lucky to see them once every 12 months.

See you all again next year



I hardly took any pics this year so thanks to those who have posted up allready if anyone else has more post em ASAP
