I'll be there, work permitting, with my jza61 supra
and with my complete lack of experience launching with the new suspension, I dont expect to bear many people down the 1/8th

Well, that is just an extimate. But at the moment I am getting 164rwkw.
So fix up the injectors, BOV and all that and I would hope to be getting about 170 or so.
Get a full exhaust system. Should add at least 10-15 (i would hope so).
Get a much bigger FMI, with cold air pipes from driving light holes (hate those "cut-out" fronts). I have it on good authority that as soon as they put a bigger FMI onto their car it got them an extra 40rwhp.
So those three things should bring the total up to around 200rwkw.
Once again these are just estimates......

*raises hand*
I'm looking forward to it! Of course I'll be there in the poopra, which has a few improvements since last time.
Last year there were rumours of a 1/4 mile drag strip being ready this year... anyone know if that's happening?

Can someone enlighten me as to what goes on at these events ??
Is it worth taking my Cressida along to ??
If I am not participating in the Sandown Easternats - and it's worthwhile, I might come along...

Its a gathering of the best toyotas out there in one spot at one time for all toyota enthusiasts to enjoy and admire
PLUS its heaps of fun - so i hear

and the toymods parties ROCK!!!!
just ask Yellowrolla - he was in the room nest door....
Yesits definitely worth it. Its a small enough event that everyone gets to know each other and party together and have a friendly competitive weekend, we all admire what EVERYONE has done with their cars, and yet its big enough that we make an impact on the locals' fords and holdens......
Highlight of last years show'n'shine - a small groups of bogan teenie girls walks into the Autobarn carpark, walks straight over to the green VK with the 1JZ and remark
"Thats not a V8 is it?"
"I dont know whats wrong with this show, but there's no good cars here, they must all be like imports or something..."

Remember we all have to be responsible and act our age (snigger). I dont think Odin is going to come because he will be too much of a handful out at the accomodation.
All and all if its going to be as good a fun as it was last year im already there
