#1611 - Ty

New and loving it!
Hey there all...

Just got my dream vehicle!!! a White on White Tyhoon # 1611. A friend of a friends imported it up to Vancouver last August, and I got it bout 4 weeks ago from him. He mentioned that he might be wanting to get another car, so I jumped on it and bought it from him... deal took 3 days to complete!! hahah I think his head is still spinning on how fast I took it from him... hahah

This thing is mechanically stock, down to the air cleaner box and all. He did lower it 2 inches, but I think I'll bring it back up by 1/2" just cause the roads here in Vancouver can be a bit hard on bump stops. The interior is mainly stock except for an aftermarket alpline deck and sub box, I'm going to gut that all out and put a stock looking CD deck in. the leather and all is "used" but no rips and tears.. LOOKING GOOD!!. Outside the paint is great, but there is a few chips and a minor ding on the driver door :( , but looking at her she looks like a 5 year old then a 13 year old truck! :) I've also put clear markers on the bumper and the turn signals, and also put in a set of HID headlights.. makes a WORLD of Difference!

I also have a 93 Geo Tracker, custom 5" lift, running 31x10.5... which gets me into places where I should really not be in.. :rotf:

88 Pontiac Tempest-ex IASCA sound off machine, lowered 2", rims and a a bunch of engine tweeks... yeh yeh.. you all ask WHY... but can you see the looks on people face when I roll out in something like that, and still take them on at the lights??

lastly.. 79 honda Civic - project, 91 Si motor, KKK turbo, NOS, custom 2 tone paint blk/orange, 4 wheel disk conversion.. etc...etc...etc.. Should be a fast little bugger!

Hey welcome to the SyTy Family, Wilson.

You didnt buy that Ty off a guy by the name of Gawen did you? He's also got a wht/wht in the Vancouver area. I met up with him one night last year, he got his from Alberta though.

Anyway, PM me sometime, we should get a meet together for all the local SyTy'ers.

Hey man, that's a sweet little Civic you got there. I always kinda liked those old bubble Civics, gotta be a fun little car to bomb around in. :D

Kevin Chan, eh? Does his father have a Syclone? I know of a Richard Chan that owns a Sy and apparently his son has a Ty, Gawen knows the two of them.

Anyway, there seems to be alot of SyTys in the Lower Mainland, I keep hearing about new ones popping up all over. I've only seen one other Sy and two other Tys though (including Gawen's wht/wht). There are others that I hear about every once in awhile but I've never been able to get any contact info for them. I do know of another Ty in Surrey that I'm going to go look at in the near future for someone on the boards here as well.

I've been wanting to try to get a local meet together for quite some time, but it seems most of the SyTy owners around here tend to stay in hiding or are out Vancouver way so I never see them. And of course my Syclone hasnt been running for months now (I'm hoping that'll change in the next couple of weeks)

Also there is a big meet in Edmonton in July if you're interested. If not maybe we can get some owners together around here sometime in the summer. It'd also be cool to get a few us together and all put our trucks in the Langley Cruise-in in Sept. We'd probably get quite a bit of attention with a few SyTys lined up. :D

I plan to hit the Langley car show with the Truck, although it will be entered as my wifes truck. I'm trying to get the Civics in there too. We were there last year with about 15 little civics... it was a blast. Either which way I'll have the Ty in there.

Hi Wilson, if syty's don't cure you of your addiction, then nothing will. Just give them time and you will either, ride a bicycle for the rest of your life, commit suicide, or fall into an eternal love/hate relationship.

Welcome to the board.
