I know i know... but if it rains sat... idk if im gonna have the energy to wakeup at the butt crack of dawn to go to the texas "wash your own" spot, before i have to drive to bk... I could theoretically wash it on sat and keep it in the garage till sunday when im ready to go.... but i have nightmares of rain on my 20min drive back from the texas spot... i wish i had access to a damn hose etc at my apt building..

Im so excited!

You guys are friggin Troopers!

That's some amazing devotion to showing everyone who shows up on Sunday your cars. If this doesn't get more people out to the Meet to see these two sexy cars, then I don't know what will!

Post by **LongBeachCoupe** » Fri Nov 07, 2008 7:50 am

So 2 projector retrofits, 2 custom gauge clusters, 2 ED rear bumpers, and some other unique modifications yet to be mentioned... hehehe...

Im with ya buddy.. we havent had any new guys hop on the meet thread in a while... i also keep an eye out on the "new member" and see if they are NYers.. ive emailed probably a dozen since we planned the meet, and only a couple have responded/showed interest...

Show your support for the epic drive and come out to the meet!http://forums.altimas.org/zero...et-nj

you are both better men than me. i feel bad because i dont want to drive 3 and a half hours to the meet.

I respect the dedication.

but i guess if i was getting projectors, i would drive a few hours.

OK Guys...Got the lights, and got over the border with no cavity search. The border guy asked me what I was doing in Canada and I said "it's a long story". He said, he has the time. I said "ok" and proceeded with my story. When I was done he was like

I then proceeded back home at the avg speed was about 80mph. When I got back into PA (about 4pm)I met Mike (surmanm) at the house of wings aka Alligers. Had wings and a beer with Mike and Zack and they had to roll right afterward because they had a long drive ahead of them too! They should be back into the city about 8pm and me,..we'll I'm off to a piano concert that my wife and son are doing tonight. I'll be up late installing these bad boys!

BTW..I was pretty impressed driving that Yaris. It was quite peppy for a sub compact and great gas mileage too. The only way I can describe it is this way...almost like getting naughty with a fat chick. Sure it's fun, that is untill your friends find out

I know what you mean! I used to drive a tricked out Echo sedan and that thing was more fun than a clown on fire!

Thanks Bri! Good to be back and yes they did do a cavity search and it was some hot blonde border chick wearing a uniform that was two sizes too small During the cavity search I felt like Stiffler in the last scene of American Pie! Oh Yeah..Milkin' the prostrate baby!
