NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Good deal. I'll be up there a month before the wife too.

 

because I like making you sad...heh heh jk

at work my phone signal is hit or miss so there is a better chance for some text from a post to get through rather than loading map and other links.

so... another noob question. The first post in the TSF annual meet and wheel thread is edited with the current dates and info right... I havnt had the chance to read through all 100 pages to get up to speed yet. More importantly it is this up coming weekend correct?

Thanks!

 

Yup. Mike put together all the info. in the first post. It has tons of good info, links to pics, and all the necessary fixins for a great trip! Great map btw, I hadn't checked it out yet

Commence quoting....

 

You don't need to read all the pages because it's an ongoing thread. I try to post the 'current event talk begins here' to give a start to the conversation, but the annual meet (especially this one) gets a lot of talk.

the dates are correct

if you want to come I suggest you get friday off and meet Ben and myself in Olympia at the buttcrack of dawn (I think Ben had us rolling out at 8am). Otherwise, be in North Plains Oregon by 8am on Saturday for the caravan. Talk to J88logue, I think he's the caravan guy.

you need the oregon ohv permit. you need to get it from a store in oregon because mailing takes weeks. It's cheap. If you are coming Friday then you can get one with my caravan.

have cash for camping (its cheap) if you are doing that

have a fire extinguisher. We are currently talking about that in the thread.

 

I thought that I'd stop in and say hi. I bought my Tacoma a couple weeks ago and hopefully I'll be able to go to some of the meets and events. I've been going through the truck and doing maintenance work on it to make it more trail worthy.

On another note, I'm not sure if any of you know anyone or can yourselves, but I'm in need of someone to tune my truck. It has the TRD S/C on it, and as part of my maintenance and upgrades to get it running better I bought the URD 7th injector kit for it. I'd appreciate it if anyone has a direction to point me in for getting it tuned.

A run down on my truck, I'm sure I'm missing somethings too:

2000 Tacoma ext cab SR5 TRD 4x4
3.4L v6
TRD supercharger
TRD stainless steel headers
URD 7th Injector kit
URD 2.1" s/c pulley @ 10.5psi
URD o2 simulator
Short ram intake pipe
Icon/DR coilovers
Camburg UCA's
Bilstein 5125's
Icon leaf springs
Regeared, I'm not sure with what though maybe 4.56?
BFG m/t 33/10.5/15
All Pro Baja bumper
Custom rock sliders
Custom rear tube bumper
Custom exhaust

I'm just getting into the truck world, so all of this is pretty new to me. Before this truck I've had a bunch of cars that I've modded for power, but I'm loving the change so far. I look forward to meeting you guys, and I'm sure I'll be learning a lot from you guys!

 

Truck sounds legit! I've heard a few references to people going to carb connection up in the kirkland or redmond area? I'm interested in doing the same thing - maybe we could get a discount/group rate?

 

Hey where are you guys meeting in Oly? I'd rather roll with a caravan than try n figure out OR myself lol

 

Responded in the planning thread. Shoot me PM in response to that.

 

T minus 15 days until I start my drive out that way. Can't wait to get to normal temperatures. I hate this 98 and humid shit.

 

It's nice out here today. My thermometer in the overhead console broke a while back but I'd say it's 75

 

I've got my soldering iron. I'll hit you up when I'm there. I've got steady hands and lots of soldering practice.

 

Sounds good man thanks!!

 

Damn divorce sucks. My ex moved out today and the house seems so empty now it doesn't even feel like home.

 

Sorry to hear that man...time to get a dog and start modding the hell out of you Taco

Let's get a meet'n'greet going again!!! (For realsies this time)

 

I'm cool with that (as long as no one flakes)

 

Hella lame. Sorry man

 

Maybe a southern WA meet perhaps?

 

We could do that....our last attempt was supposed to be in Olympia...but a few of us went to Tallon's for a mini mod-day, and we ended up being there late, so a few people bailed (myself included).

Any dates/times/locations that stick out to anyone???

 

We could stage a 'pimp Angie's ride' mod day where everyone donates their used parts and random 2x4's to try to give me a few more inches of lift
