Hey guys!!
im heading over to seattle next month ..
for a week for business ..

3 things!

if anyone needs any parts be it tail lights or any aussie spec and you live in the seattle area (ill be staying on fourth ave) let me know and we can arrange something.. and i can try to source for you..

is there anything worth seeing around that area? (im guessing not really)

and the other thing is .. are there any reputable sellers around that area ? where i could get myself a fidenza flywheel/act clutch ?

i could always get it shipped to my hotel .. but worried about delays etc since i only have a window of 1 week ..

 

can't help, but i hope you enjoy your stay in the States. Also i hope everything works out with the one week window.

 

You can always do the hip tourist stuff:

Check out Pike Place Market, Space Needle, EMP (Experience Music Project), Gas works park, walk around Broadway, take the Monorail, check out Safeco Field, take one of the ferries to one of the other parts of the Puget Sound.

You can find parts at:
Intec Racing in Kent, Washington. Simply take I-5 south to 405 east toward Renton. Take the 167 onramp toward Kent/Auburn. Get off at 212th going west. Go through two stop lights. It's on the left. If you went over train tracks you went too far. It's a very normal looking building, so keep your eyes open. That is where 92typeR tunes cars.

Speedline Motorsports in Tacoma, Washington
Fastlane in Tacoma, Washington (shady...)
Speedware Motorsports in Redmond, Washington. These guys have all the high end **** and a large porton of their sales is supplying parts and services for all the rich Microsoft guys up the road. Generally you will see modified Ferraris, Lambos and Porches in the parking lot.

There is plenty to do in Seattle, I hope you get some good weather.

 

You are more than welcome to come down to the shop and check it out. We can order those parts if you want, it would probably be wise to call ahead of time during business hours and order the parts so that you can be sure that they are there when you are staying in Seattle.

Feel free to PM me.

 

ooh or maybe u could come give me a ride to your shop =P
if its not too far.. !

Might be able to do that =]

 

friend has a brand new fidanza flywheel and ACT clutch for his ITR that he is not going to use now that he is going K-series. could ship it to your hotel very easily with my fedex account if you are interested.

 

I'm just north of the border from Seatown. Been there many times to visit. Had a great time every time.

I've ordered some stuff from Intec and service/shipping has always been top notch. I'd actually like to check out the shop someday. Maybe get a few dyno runs in just for ***** 'n' giggles

Seattle is a nice place. I hope you enjoy your stay

 

Have lunch at Lowells in Pike Place market on the 3rd floor.

Check out the market on Saturday- it's awesome.

Eat lunch in the space needle.

Air and space boeing museum

Weather next month should be fairly sunny and weather in the 70's/80's. Low humidity as well, great time of year.

Can you bring the brunette from Wollongong I haven't seen in 10 years?

Seattle is fun, you're coming at a good time for weather. Hit the spots mentioned above. Depending what you're into for clubs, there's just about everything here. Pioneer square for beers and music, Belltown for martinis's, Freemont for relaxed bars, etc.

 

I liked Cowgirls and Phucket when I was in Seattle. Anthony's tempura halibut was good too.

 

depending on when you're around, there's an ITR meet just north in vancouver coming up.

might be worth trying to hitch a ride with one of us. see canada and vancouver while you're at it

 

hehe ..
i'd love to go to a USDM meet =P since my car is heavily USDM influenced LoL

but ill only be there between the 20th and the 26th of next month and i have meetings/conferences for most of those days BOOO
