Good to finally chat with you Tee. It was a fun event even though the turnout was lower than expected. I wish there would've been some more IS300s there. I think ADSMobile Phil and I were the only IS300s.

Looking forward to seeing some of you next weekend at Premier's grand opening in Fremont.

Great meet!~

it was nice meeting you guys - everybody was super nice and welcoming to poor newbies like me

Pretty good turn out and it great seeing the mods you guys have done!

LDYNRED

Was very nice to meet you . Now you're no longer a "poor newbie". After a few more of these meets, you'll just be POOR

There were three more IS's that showed up after you Brian.

This meet being one of the rare In N Out meets where people could come and go as they please, it's a little harder to catch everyone at the right time.



So the last of the crew just broke up now. I just got home and I know BC-GS430 & TAMR_GUS98 will be home in another 40 min to chime in.

Also James (old screen name Nubie400) will have a good hour + to get back to Fairfield. We all ate at a MexItalian restaurant in Alviso of all places.

Good food, good fun and good talking to everyone today.

We had some good laughs and I'm sure everyone gained a lot of knowledge about Dyno, mods and that what you think you have and what you get might be two different things.

I am waiting for the first person who didn't attend this meet to post on this thread and say "So what Horsepower did everybody pull.?"

Well I'm sorry to say the numbers will only mean so much by themselves and curently there is no point in reporting. Everyone who attended knows what I mean. It will take some time before I can publish a comprehensive report on the meet and all our findings. I think most of us are blown away with the current results.


The second half of the story will entail that we do some REAL WORLD testing of some of these cars at the track. I think only then will the TRUTH come out.

Once we have part 2 completed, I will publish a follow up article, but for those that didn't attend, they will have to wait little longer as I believe the dyno meet and its results are only half of the story.


So on to part two. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...86#post1853886


Thanks to all who came.

Im really glad I decided to make the drive down from Concord...and not just to get the rapid rewards!! LOL! This was a really fun little meet. It was great to see all the familiar faces, and even greater meeting some new folks too!

Peer pressure got the best of me, as I found my dirty GS4 up on the dyno....and the results were definintely not what I expected (RMMGS4's upcoming writeup on the meet/dyno results will address that). I definitely learned a lot of stuff today that will help me decide on the types of performance mods I may or may not do in the future.

And as always, I was in awe of the beautiful cars in attendance....even got a chance to see the new JP Style LED tailights in person (they look great on RMMGS4's car ). I never get tired of seeing these cars

See everyone and the next meet. Big thanks to TKRacing for giving the incentive to get my car dyno'd today...mahalo bruddah

BC-GS430

That was a long day for me. I arrived early to help out. Great to see the Norcal crew as always. Finally good to meet TKracing after seeing his screenname all the time. I love the prussian blue fenders!!! Lets see who else, Menach nice little burn out you did. I think I may have been the only GS430 to dyno if GSing430 didn't show up, small turn out for the 430s. James thanks for hanging out so long, we know its a long drive back.

buhda

Dam work, I wanted to check it out too and maybe get a base run in. Oh well maybe next time.
So what Horsepower did everybody pull?

Great dyno day, thanks for the warm welcome for a new comer. I wish I could have stayed longer, I will definitely keep my eye on your Northern California threads for any new meets you end up doing.

ISC400

WOW what a great meet today i'm so glad me and g/f showed up. It was great to see such tastefully done rides and i learned alot about what mods to do/do not especially from jim in his black sc4 torque monster .But best of all i met a bunch of down to earth nice ppl that happen to be lexus enthusiasts And i can't complain with those numbers i put down on the dyno!!!

TAMR_GUS98

Well, another gr8 meet. Some of the results were quite interesting to say the least. Ron(BC-GS430 ) and Mark(MarkGS4)did not even want to dyno their cars but ended up getting some great #'s.Got more HP and TQ #'s out of our SC'd 4runner than LDYNRED and I expected. Missed my targeted HP by 3 on my GS. But its all good. Met some gr8 newbies, some familiar faces, and put faces to familiar screen names. Here's a few. If I missed anyone, please forgive me. It's past 1:30 in the morning.
bb6lude-Next time you and your buddie will have to stay longer.
sportdsign-Glad you enjoyed your first meet. Many more to come. Stay tuned.
bchau_gt-It was nice to see you and your girl again.
menech-Gr8 newbie. Let the modding begin. Enjoyed your burn out when you left.
gme2001-Please stay longer next time. Looking forward to seeing you at future meets.
TKRacing-Pleasure to have met you. I'm still thinking about those fenders of yours. Let me know
when your ready to hand over the Turbo East ESK.
Lucrative-Thanks for coming out. It was good to put a face to a screen name.
And of course all the regulars-Lets do this again soon.
Btw, there was one other newbie. Those of you that were there early will know who I am talking about. His screen name is Rominl. LOL (Have to have been there to understand )
Those that missed this one, hopefully you can make it to the next one. Will post pics later. Need to catch some ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

I wan't gonna mention the burnout but glad you guys liked it - I was holding on for dear life...VDIM disabled is no joke :eek: It felt like I burned 4 bucks in gas and 200 bucks worth of tires

see you guys for drag day - I should be back from florida than and hoping to get some launch tips from you guys. Sorry I couldn't make it for dinner - mexican sounded good but I at least I got some digits for leaving and heading out downtown

looking forward to pics! I hope I made Glen proud on my unofficial "secretary job" and I totally geeked out - excel is for noobs you guys would be proud.

ZZzzzZZ for me now
