Toyota Appreciation day @ Zen Garage - Saturday 20th October

[river]

Hi,

Good day, good company and some lovely cars.

I have found the lowered suspension, semi-slick tyres and my new rims just make The88 look and feel so much better.... plus air con makes it even more comfortable. She's been a garage queen for too long, and I need to... I want... I love to.. take her out more often. So much fun. Have to do a Coffee in Kiama cruise one day, just for the hell of it. Maybe a jazz festival, Pretty Boy? hehehehe

Took some pics, but so did heaps of others and I'm sure their pics will be better than mine.

The Zen Garage guys were really nice and good blokes. Also, first time I ever really spoke to Adam, as I usually run away from AE86 drivers, but he seems like a nice guy but says "fuck" far too often for me 'cos I'm a sensitive fella and am easily offended.

Oh, anyone go home via the M4? Big traffic slow down as the rubber-neckers were checking out a BMW that looked a bit totalled. Not sure what happened or how it happened, but there were a few towies and the cops.

LMAO, easily offended my arse...
I just get a bit excited talking to fellow enthusiasts and I just can't help it

But yes, genuinely awesome chat to you river. Had a great time swapping stories all the usual guff.

Had a good chat to chris about the stout, and super keen to see how it turns out eventually...

No I was in my black mark ii, I saw that z20 with blue rims, dunno who owns it. Saw you drive past.

oh that was you in the JZX110 haha. Hope you enjoyed the fly-by! first gear always makes me giggle

Fantastic day. Weather put on a show, some fantastic cars and everyone seemed to have a great time looking forward to seeing some piccies. Should be a few, i think every 3rd person had a DSLR...

Hi,

Went to upload the pics, but my Image Shack page is under maintenance... wtf does that mean? So, went to the normal public page area, but can't upload 'cos I use RAW (for more detail) and it doesn't accpet RAW images. So, had to upload a converter and convert them into JPG. But now Image Shack says the JPG images are too big. Fuck it. Someone else can post their pics.

Photobucket is much easier and accepts RAW (I thunk) and pics of all sizes...

Ive used photobucket for ages, hasn't failed me yet.

Don't worry Riv, i'm sure someone who took much better photo's than you will go to the effort of uploading their shots

[river]

Hi,

Probably. ANyway, I keep getting an ImageShack error, so I just set up a laptop and jammed down the enter key. Generates about 20 fails per sec, and I'm going to leave it run for... forever.

So, c'mon peeps... where's your pics?

What a Wicked day !

A big thanks to the guys at Zen Garage for hosting a great Day and everyone I spoke to really enjoyed it. Some cool cars, great people and a really awesome atmosphere.

Anthony will post up an official event report soon and then we will link up the past Event page for Todays event properly on the website (yes that non forum Toymods web thingy no-one looks at) but since I am to lazy to post up photos in two locations here is a sneaky to the Event report showing a small gallery of pics from today.

Sorry Vito, its the only pic I had of your car to add .

Z20 with blue rims is a guy off JDMST, purchased the car this year off eBay (i was looking to buy the same one at the time:/), not sure if on here too. The cars more often around Bexley tho.

Anyways, awesome pics!
