>

oh snaps!!!! free food and gas!!! i'll definitely be there +5!!! Derrick you are the man!!!

I has a bad news.


after stringing me along all day ("it'll be done by the time you get off work"...."it'll be ready by mid-evening"..."I'll try to finish tonight"), the guy working on Allu finally told me he wouldn't be able to get my car back to me. this was about an hour ago.
AGHASDJRHASADKLFHASDLKFHASDLKFJ*kicks a baby*

okay. I feel better.

so Allu and I have to miss out on this one...the buffet, the awesome SCANDINAVIAN-themed park, and hanging out with our 6gc family


but at least he'll finally have his V-day and b-day presents installed now


Derrick, I say you should halp me organize a South Bay meet for when Faust finally gets his ass down here. since you're the "official SoCal Celica meet organizer and advisor" and such
..although I would like to roll by James Games and "holla", as the kids say, at that cutie who works there

>

Nah man, that wasn't me. I mean, we would all like to have other people pay for stuff but sometimes it doesn't work out like that. I would take you up on the deal you offered earlier though..

>

hahahahahaha...oh crap..i still gotta wash mah car ....

2AM and I'm back in town...geeze, it's becoming a habit for me now (arriving in the middle of the night for a meet).

*yawn*...got to wake up early tomorrow to go fetch my brakes down in OC...then need to wash my car, wax it, and go the Marco's in IE...

...the driving never ends...

Is putting on new rotors easy?

Who's reading this anyways at 2am (besides Derrick, haha)?

See you guys in a few hours.

Haha I kinda washed my car. I would have done a really good job, but I was being rushed and the Director of Service at Lexus wasn't leaving, so I was like "arrrg! Go home already so that I can wash my car " I didn't tell her that, so I wiped my car down with a towel, it's not a good wash. Marco, you need to call me to wake me up. I know I need to wake up early, but I just drank a bunch of coffee so I'm not tired at all :x. When you call me, remind me what I need to bring. Which will most likely just be a camera, and.. yeah, that should be all. I didn't promise anyone anything did I? Marco knows I always forget important stuff because I have a bad memory haha. But I can't really think of anything I would need to bring hmm... Oh well, give me a call tomorrow Marco. I was just Texting with Yuchen, but he stopped replying, so maybe I'll get some sleep.

Oh Christina, I will try to organize a meet closer to you, but I just don't know the area too well. Do you have any recommendations as to where you think would be a good place to meet? It would need to be sooner than later, as I am retiring from the SoCal Celica division in just a few more weeks. Soon I will no longer be part of you guys, how sad . You're going to need to find another Celica Convertible to replace me mhm.

ROTORS should be easy, unless its super glued on...hahahah but yeah cant wait to saa yall again!!!..yeah i gotta sleep so i can at least get 6-7 hours of sleep, then take dem caffene pills in the morning!! HAHAHAH

Rotors are SUPER easy! I can do them with a blindfold on. Seriously, I can. No joke .

Okay, then you better not fuxor up my tire pressure sensors!

I couldn't fit my spoiler in my car so I guess I'll be putting it on by myself

Damn, don't you people go to sleep!?!



>

No one sleeps in Tokyo. all right crossing the line. Tokyo is on fire! Anyways, I don't think it's possible to mess up the tire pressure sensor via changing the rotors . You have the wheel lock key though right?

>
damn, you got me. i am afterall, captain joe sparrow. but you left out one little part of that quote. cuz i specifically said i'd do all that in a hundred years. so you're all gonna have to wait.

as for a meet closer to the south bay area... we should plan a meet for this thing and caravan there together... http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=57605

It's ok Joe, but you better hurry up and save money, cause your 100 years is running out, since you said that back on April 56th, 1943 . I'll be waiting for my swap.

I sure do.

I guess I can ask you about it more tomorrow, but been reading about those damn TPM and was wondering how it would be affected by putting on some rims (non Lexus ones). Anyways, I really need to sleep I'll just ask you later today about it...

>

I'll explain it more to you tomorrow, but most aftermarket wheels do not come equiped with the TPM system, so you're light will be on always. Some Lexus vehicles have a Main setting and a 2nd setting for the TPM, which will allow you to change this. Nothing will really be affected even if the light is on. You just might be annoyed by it always being on if you put an aftermarket set of wheels on. The SC430 isn't too common of a car, so I don't know every aspect of that vehicle. The IS, GS and RX are the most common vehicles that I get to touch. I just completed my GS, RXh, and LX certification today. Bah they ask so many stupid questions. Like the amount of cargo room in sq ft that the LX570 has with the 2nd and 3rd row seats folded down. And which seats are availible with the pretension seat belts on the GS models, and even how much HP each GS model comes with. And we are supposed to know that on the GS with the AFS, the headlights will adjust up to 15 degrees while making a left turn and 5 degrees on a right turn. We also have to know where practically every button on the car is. I actually love working for Lexus, because surprisingly this stuff interests me .

>

WHAT?! oh no no no nonono you can't do that!

I'll come up with something, dammit...maybe we can have a going-away parteh for you or something..hmm.

>

Haha, I thought about having a going-away shin dig. But I'm not a fan of goodbyes. Goodbyes are for people who I never want to hear from again. So maybe we could have a... see-you-later type thing . That would be ok, as long as I don't feel pressured to entertain or be entertained . I don't like to have special treatment, which is why I don't like to celebrate my birthday at all.

i cant make it to scandia. whats the itinerary for the day, do yall know what time ya gonna leave scandia?

>
No we do not, but we will keep you posted if you would like. What time will you be free by? I'm basically forcing myself to go. I feel terribly... ugh, and I'm about to throw up and yeah . But it's ok! Hurray! Only reason I'm posting right now is becuase my room mate is using the bathroom right now. I don't want to use the other bathroom becuase it's in one of their rooms, and I don't want anyone to know that I'm sick. Soooo I gotta be ok . Ok bathroom free now.

time for a quicky half-assed car wash.

pretty cool meet. we actually did stuff besides stand around our cars and just talk and take pictures. not that there's anything wrong with that. too bad only 5 members showed up. what happened to the rest? but its cool. it was a tight lil group hang. sucks i had too leave a lil earlier than planned. the gf got soaked from the bumper boats.

>

haha it's cool man, glad you two had fun . I just got home from Marco's house now. Oh man I'm exhuasted from today, it was a great day. We didn't get a lot of pictures in this time, but there were only 4 Celicas so it's no big deal. Next time we will have more members and get more pics. Ok I'm going to sleep now, I fell asleep at the wheel a few times I was so tired.

>

jeebus, man..I'm glad you got home safely! keep a stash of caffeine pills in your glovebox for those situations or something, will ya? don't make me worry about you!!

Allu was pretty mad about having to miss the meet, but we're both glad to hear y'all had fun. so...when's the next meet??

The guys were talkin' about going to that show next month (don't know what it's called). Marco and Derrick are planning to represent Celicas in the Toyota class. I'm tempted to come back down for this too. So I guess that's the next "meet"?

Hey Derrick, I just got home from my gambling trip...haha, made $200, lost all of it, went to different casino, made another $200 and this time decided to walk away. It's 3:30 and I'm feeling peachy

Christina, so where can I see a pic of Allu (I feel like I'm out of the loop on this )





>

>

aw, I think everyone's outta the loop as far as the audio install is concerned; I just got him back last night, haha
there are a couple pictures on Allu's page and tons more on the RB Motorsports page (this guy does AWESOME custom work...even though it takes a little long, haha!)


we might go to Toyotafest briefly, but we can only stay for a couple hours
maybe we can all show up before 9, park together (facing the same direction of course), and take pictures...6gc.net style, babay!

^ pretty sweet. kinda looks like it came stock that way. wish i could've seen it in person.

Oh man, you won't believe what happened to me tonight...

And don't feel too bad Derrick/Marco (I might make some $$$ on this).

My Lexus is going into the dealership for repairs...(brakes failed on me).

To make matters worse, the tow truck driver let my car fall off his truck and slam into another car!

So it's going to the El Monte Lexus...is that where you work?

i'm sorry to hear about that Nam.

Hope everything works out with the tow truck guy's insurance company...

On a side note, we had a great time at Scandia. In spite of getting socked up by the GF for holding her in the corner to get soaked by the stream on the bumper boats. I think Joe saw that incident.

Wait so like, the brakes failed on you, but you didn't crash into anything atleast right? I feel so terrible bout that, cause I've done rotors a bunch of times, and never have I had a problem with the brakes . So you're car is going to be at Longo Lexus tomorrow? Is your car already at Longo Lexus? Can you explain what exactly happened? Your brakes don't work at all anymore? The only thing that I can think of is that maybe the passenger brake line got damaged, but still it seemed like your brakes worked fine when you drove out of Marco's house. Where there any symptoms beforehand? Anyways, I should see your car at work tomorrow, I'll make sure we take good care of it for you. I feel really terrible about what happened Nam . Maybe I shouldn't become a Toyota/Lexus specialist anymore. I'll just keep my night job as a stripper, it's the only thing I'm good at .
