Well the title pretty much says it all...im currently in okinawa, japan on deployment and getting ready to come home to SD. Just wanted to finally say whats up to all the sd evo's out there especially the ones in the military...I've been on deployment for going on 5 mos now and im kinda outta the loop as far as whats poppin w/ the community and all...It would be cool to meet all you guys during a meet perhaps or I know before I left the Qualcomm races used to be poppin w/ evo's as well...Anyway, just wanted to say hello in advance, and I cant wait to see how many times I stall after not having driven in a little over 6 mos!! :grin:

there's a few, one of my boys over there had an Evo III and took me to some of him. There's a guy named Scott who's got a place that does a really good job. I don't know the name of it though, I'll e-mail my boy out there and try to get the name of it, I just know Scott did all the work to the Evo and it was the hottness.

thanks bro...let me know asap, since i got bout a month left here and would be nice if i could pick up some goodies that i wont be able to find in the states....and do they have public junkyards in oki like ecology or pick your part in the states?

swimmer160
05-12-2007, 08:53 AM
yeah there are some great junkyards, I definitely went to a couple of those and picked apart some cars. The problem with that is that I don't know where they are, so I think you would just have to ask someone.

Now, if there is acutally a member that will install a granade laucher on the roof of their Evo. That would be cool :D

Hope we have a meet when this guy comes back

I just want to say thanks to all our military men and women, especially the SoCalEvo members, for serving, for protecting our freedoms and rights and this country. It is not overlooked by this member. Big meet in June at HB Mitsu and MOD is in July at Mitsu HQ in Cypress. O0

Early Welcome Back to SD. Once you get in your EVO and feel that boost, you'll be in heaven again. You're coming back, and unfortunately, I have to leave SD and meet my ship in Australia! Well, doesn't sound that bad, right?

It's cool to see some Chiefs w/ EVOs.

I like to break it down to...evolution. You have your everyday Chief, who if lucky and with the right conditions, evolves into the more enhanced EVO Chief.

empty do people give you shit for driving an Evo and being a Chief? I get all kinds of crap from other Chiefs because it isnt a muscle car.

The Mitsu dealer he is talking about is HB Mitsu on Beach Bl. It's about a 15 - 20 minute drive south of Autobacs on a light traffic day.
