Huge general car meets next to Ale House out front of Albertsons on Archer. Never been to one though. Bunch of the honda guys at work go religiously. They tell me there's a few other 240's there but they haven't convinced me to go yet lol.

Yea, I go almost every thursday and there is usually a good turn out. More s14 than s13. I am only one of a few s13 that turn up. You guys shuold show up one time and see what you think, it usually goes from about 9:30-12. Lots of diff. cars, not just hondas although there are a few.

What color is your S13?

Off the top of my tired head real quick, what I've seen around town:

S13s:-Daytona-ish blue zenki today-Gold chuki, black hood, unidentified wheels, monster truckin , forced induction, lives in my apt. complex-2-3 red hatches like mine (chuki and/or zenki), 1 has black wheels I think, two for sure are FI-Orange lowered on presumably silk roads (based on stickers) his name is Lee according to another member, see him a lot. Gave each other a thumbs up once-a white one that started the previous Gainesville 240's thread (Lee's friend apparently)-black chuki, bone stock on campus the other day...well I can't go on about stock 240's but I see lots around here actually...nice to see unmolested s13's and 14's

S14s-Daytona-ish blue zenki today (yeah weird day, rogue bus went off route and saw both of them seperately while off route)-2 black zenkis, one is on black fn's one on black S14SE's, one has no front bumper, gave me a thumbs up when I was going to Moe's once-Red...not sure if it was a zenki or kouki, didn't get a good look, on new z33 track wheels I think they were...maybe a body kit too...looked really nice...I was drunk at the time but I know I saw it!-2 gold, 1 on unidentified wheels, one stock with a bike rack on the trunk -oh yeah another black zenki, parked next to me at work for like a week, went crazy trying to find him until I found out he worked next door lol, then he disappeared -lots more stockers

Sure I'm forgetting a few, but they're around.

I drive a red S13 hatch. I usually drive around Thursdays but don't stop since my car looks like complete ***.

I've been spending all of my money on the engine so I haven't had money to get her painted or off of the stock wheels(to which I am now missing hubcaps... ).

I've got 2-3 of those hubcaps in Clearwater if you'd like to get matching. I remember when I lost a hubcap...it angered me. They're down in Clearwater...I'm going down there tomorrow so I could bring them up with me if needed.

Saw a cobalt blue S13 coupe today, and a stock and very badly beat up chuki tonight haha.

I have a dark green (some mistake it for black) 92, not lowered yet but on gunmetal rims. I think the black on black s14 you saw by Moes is john..him and his brother both have one. My friend Johan drives a red pignose w/ exhaust. Well nismoracingsx (or anyone) don't be afraid to stop in on thursdays..trust me there are way worse cars there.

South-West. I wonder if that blue S13 was one of the ones I saw recently.

RX7's I've seen a white one, a black one, and the red one I saw on campus today.

That's alright, I bought a pair of 91 SE wheels off of a guy the other day for $80. Getting tires for them at the end of the week. Thanks for the offer though!

Should be decent temporary wheels until I can get the body fixed.

If anyone has a decent kouki bumper though I'll take that off their hands. I had to cut the pignose one up for the intercooler and did a pretty shiesty job. Not to mention it's kind of deteriorating in one area.

You forgot my 240.. i lived there for 18 years and had 4 differnet 240s. The thursday night meets are great, sure there are a few ricers out there. However, if you wait till later then the big dogs come in and this is where the core of the group is. If you are familiar with IMV films these are the guys that made them. So if you can imagine the nights they go out to play are quite fun. I was up in gville not too long ago and was able to re-kiindle with all my old freinds there. Its fun, but i dont live there anymore and im not willing to go to jail just for a little racing.

Clawhammer you dont live off of newberry road do you?

Nah, I live on the other end of town.

Another black s13 chuki (stock), a red pignose I believe with a primered gray hatch (looked lowered), and a starfire blue S14. Add them to the list.

It's hard to keep with the coming and going rate up here.

Saw a burgandy S14 zenki with black wheels/polished lip today on Archer.

And I think jrmiller was driving behind me tonight, I noticed the pignose light pattern in my rearview. Not sure if you saw through the tint but I gave you a thumbs up as you passed.

Yeah, that was me. I couldn't see through your tint very well, but I saw the sticker on the side so I knew it was you.

Haha. The popups and pignose signals in my rearview caught my attention, and when the light turned green as I pulled away I saw the intercooler and got excited in the pants.

Same thing happens with me, even if I'm in my car and I see another.

If I see you again I'll stop and say hey, we were in a bit of a hurry today. I live right down the street from there so I'm sure we'll run into one another sometime.

Aside from it being coming out day it must be 240 day cause I saw Lee in his orange S13, then about 3 minutes later I think I saw JR on Main St. (did you get the SE's on?).

Oh and between seeing you two I saw a starfire blue zenki with black wheels/polished lip and a stock maroon zenki parked next to it in an apartment complex.

Also saw a black S13 coupe (primer?) with a it's exhaust not only angled out but down lol...looked broken.
