hey there everyone, been sitting and brainstorming some ideas for a meet in the spring when the cars are fresh out of storage. I was thinking about hosting a little "DSM BBQ' at my house in Cambridge. everyone would be welcome and im open for suggestion. I was thinking somewhere around 1-2 meet at the house and eat then hang around go do some group photos and depending on what day we planned it on quite possibly hit up the 519 Meet in Kitchener. please chime in on this everyone!

Date?

I'd try to make it with the dsm.

haven't set a date yet but im just trying to get some ideas from other board members. i'll be giving lots of notice in advance for anyone traveling.

Love this idea! Depending on how well this goes I will look at hosting one as well, would love to share some of that smokey meet with all my fellow dsmers!!

I would be providing all the food as well (burgers/dogs) but if anyone wants anything special on the bbq that's up to them to bring. I ran a club called "magnum mafia Canada" for about 7 months before I did the switch back to the dark side and held a spur of the moment one and had a great turnout. so id love to see a big dsm turnout. besides my neighbor thinks his cobalt ss smashes a DSM so he might need a little lesson taught to him


photos from gtalx





and I cant seem to find any pictures from my bbq but my street was full of magnums and darts lol

I'd be down as well, sounds like a good idea to get people out and about in their DSMs.

If mike drives his own dsm down for this.... Ill join him.. Just to see his car!

Lal

Looool you're on Jay!

I did bring it down 2 seasons ago for a late luncheon at "The Q".

Met up with a few of the guys.

I should've stopped by your place.

It was a pleasure to see the silver bullet in person.

The "Q" on the other hand... Felt like a watering hole for geriatric buffalo.

Hahaha it's G's fav restaurant!

Well St-Hubert is, The Q is the closest thing; used to be a St-Hubert (and no, swiss chalet doesn't even compare :p)

I'm game... Maybe I should keep the engine out of my dsm and Fred flinstone it!

Yabba dabba doo!

still faster then a Honda

Depends what Honda Hondas are amazing when they're sending all of their power to the one rear wheel via a chain.

True story

Wayyyyyy too far for me travel...

519 meets don't have an exact date for their first meet but it will be in May and at the sunrise centre which is on the far west side of Kitchener.

So whatever date that ends up being maybe bbq same day? Yaa??

yeah that's what I was thinking of doing kyle, show thes "all stock air ride boys what some real cars look like "

I'd be down to come hangout and bring the Eclipse. I drive through Cambridge 5 days a week anyway.

atta boy nick. it'll look sweet with all these dsm's on my street lol

I'm with Nick, I too drive through Cambridge 5-6 times a week.

perfect. more the merrier

I defiantly missed Canadian DSM meets


If all goes according to plan, i will be in area late May/June so i can stop by in my Outlander

I think that was the best turnout we had for a meet.

That was definitely a good one.

I remember that one! It was good for sure

I'm in, Kitchener is my back yard.

well until we get a little closer lets set something tentatively for May 28-29 or June 4-5 I would say earlier in May but I'll be in Sauble at my trailer may 24 weekend and any earlier in may some of our cars might still be away or out of commission lol. what works best for you guys ??

I'm hoping to have the car out for April, so anytime after mid April would work for me, preferably a Saturday or Sunday. Could roll up with Lucian as well.

Ill try and get my friend with his red '99 gsx to come cruise out with me too.

well according to the groundhog springs just around the corner ladies lol looking forward to pulling my girl out of storage !!

I was planning to have her out on the weekend but we got too busy, will be taking a nice lunch cruise tomorrow though!

if mine wasn't 20 minutes away and blocked in by a chevelle I'd have mine out too lol

I would totally be in to a BBQ ,we never have kw meets anymore,I remember the big ones we used to have 15-16 yrs ago,man am I ever showing my age now lol.I think I'm one of the last of the early members at least around here lol

Details on the Chevelle?

well theres quite a bit of "next gen" dsmers around here Jerry so we"ll definitely have to meet up in the spring. where in Kitchener are you located and its a red all numbers matching Canadian 1 owner chevelle. the guy was telling me it was appraised for somewhere near 100k

I am on arnold street kinda downtown,near Guelph street.

oh nice im just off of eagle street in preston

alrighty everyone im thinking we set the date for SUNDAY MAY 29th

if anyone has any input please speak up!

Sounds good by me too!

Might be too soon for the eclipse, but I may ride down on the bike..

BIKE?!?!?! I'm ridin b*itch with some skimpy shorts LOL

Hahaha uhhhh... No thanks G!

ahh come on mike lol it'll be june 3 days after the meet im sure the eclipse will be just fine

Maybe.

519meets. I might be in for might have to show up with a Honda though.

Drive my 1g Laser Stephen, hopefully by that time the 2g will be good to go as well. Wouldn't mind having pics of both together, finally. A lot of hardships came and went to get these two where they are.

Count me in for May 29th, will bring the dsm.

perfect sounds good looking forward to meeting everyone!

I will see what I can do, would be nice to come to a big meet, been a while since one of those has happened.

yeah man even if you don't have that new gem on the road come on down!

Not to be negative but with the history of this board, I would be prepared to make arrangements for only 25-50% of all members who signed up on the "will attend" list actually showing up.

That being said, I'll be there

Kinda early to commit to May 29 given that it's so far out and that I live in Detroit (but am back in Toronto most weekends) but I will definitely try to attend if I am back in Ontario that weekend.

Don't need to show up in a DSM, just show up! Bringing the DSM is always nice but don't let it be the only reason you don't show.

Bryan, if you show up in a GTR, I won't hold it against you, just let me drive it

If I make it I most definitely will not be in the DSM.

Good point, I should be up and running by then though, give me 2 months to put it all together and get it tested.

I would choose the nismo 370z over the GTR, interior is so much nicer.

You'll get along with my neighbor across the street just fine then lol just picked up a 2016 Nismo 370 in the fall. he spends more time with that then his wife lol hes a huge dsm/evo fan too so im sure he'll be gawking

Nice see if we can do a ride swap!!

I don't know if he'll go for that lol

Haha, fingers crossed!

yeah buddy, you never know lol my neighbor 2 houses down has this sick special edition forester also. fully built making 360hp with a baby seat in the back. that's how its done

Damn son that's cool!!

I have a kid with a slammed subaru, that's about it for my block. Oh and a neighbour that has a car under half cover but looks like it isn't going anywhere any time soon.

that's sweet dude, idk if you have heard of the Shaffer brothers they both had stanced neon srt4's that would go to importfest etc. but they live down the street from me also. its quite nice seeing all these nice cars in the neighborhood

Count me in.

Jonathan, I'm sure there will be plenty of people driving up from the GTA...most in fact.

Also, I just realized May 30 is a holiday here (US) so I should definitely be back that weekend and therefore I will commit myself to being there.

This is still happening in Cambridge?

yep still happening in Cambridge, its extremely easy to get to my place its right off of the 401 and eagle street i'll post a street view with an address once we get a little closer

how is the pot hole situation there lol

quite nice actually all fairly new roads in Cambridge and my sub division is A1 lol

I will try to make it out. But I cant right anything in stone yet... the motor is still in the basement.

sounds good to me brother fingers are crossed

Racing you to the finish jay lol literally... My motors still at rainbow

I will keep this in mind ...

Any chance we have a good camera man in our ranks? For video? pics good too, but would be nice to have a vid for once. Driving convoy/parked/etc. Maybe the more we do it, the more people will want to join. Just a thought.

That would be a good idea.

I can have the gopro setup. I will also bring my camera but I think it will just be me so no camera man.

the go pro is an awesome idea when we do our cruise and i'll have my girlfriend there with her camera so I think were covered quite well.

Looks like some nice weather heading your way boys. Enjoy! I missed those first warm spring days.

For those like me that are too lazy to sift through and find the date, can somebody spoon feed me/us the date and location?

Please

It's May 29 in Cambridge, exact address hasn't been posted yet.

okay guys so now that our expected numbers are getting bigger and bigger im booking a pavilion in riverside park for all of us. but we will be meeting at my house and then going down together. my address is 206 Newport Drive in Cambridge. its right off of eagle street and for anyone coming from the 401 its literally 4 turns to my front door lol

Sweet guys!!I am looking forward to this, should be there in the new girl. only thing i need is some mig gas and to put on the exhaust and I am good to go.

Lol you don't need an exhaust

oooooooorrrr, you just run the exhaust out of the front bumper, cheap and mean

LOL I was forced to do that on the way home from cayuga last year, it was not fun.

oh wow lol I want to run a cutout on the front but still keep everything else for daily driving

I am trying to decide if I want to put my cutout back on but leaning more towards just running test pipe.

im all stock except for a 3' RTM catback on the car and ive gotta etest my car again this year so im waiting to put my test pipe on lol

Of course you're going to put a test pipe on. Cats don't belong on these cars unless you're trying to pass an e-test and don't know somebody that's capable to stick the sniffer in the tailpipe of a Corolla

Ive got a guy here in Cambridge that "passes" my car every year I don't know why I cant get mine to pass with full exhaust but it failed miserably last time

Haha Lucian, I need to find someone local who can do that magic!

Also interested in a local guy that "passes". Paid 250 plus diagnosis for a conditional pass on my 1g.

We should convince Reza to start etesting cars.

i paid 300 for my last etest.

Our old family mechanic used to do some shady stuff so I am going to stop by his shop on the way home and see if he will do a pass for me.

300 sounds insane to me though!! Isn't an etest usually $120?

I paid $130 for my "legit" etest back in august

That's what I was expecting, 20$ more but not more than double.
