My name is Ian I was driving the white Acura Integra Type R Was great to see you giving it with the TT. I had an arena red 993 C4S I brought out once but became too nervous to race it once prices rose on them.

Wow you run seachtempest and autotempest? That is really cool.

Yeah, I was nervous bringing 997tt out to Western Speedway the first time. Not too bad now, but I leave the stability control on. Did get to shut it off last weekend at the Vancouver autocross at Pitt Meadows, which was fun. (And the 360 degree spin I performed at one point confirmed that leaving it on when there are walls and such around is probably wise...)

Did you have child seats in the back of your Type R at one event? I seem to recall that. I've been taking them out of the back of the Turbo for AutoX days, but one day I'll probably get lazy and leave 'em in...

And cool that you've heard of the sites! They tend to be used more south of the border.

OH boy. That would have been quite the ride.

Yes I did have a baby seat in the back. I was too lazy to take it out and deal with re-installing it lol Have a 3 yr old and a 4 month old so I really look forward to the odd race day! I've got a 94 Supra TT that I am tempted to bring out one of these days. The ITR is really made for autox though.

Yep I have tried it out to hunt for cars on craiglist. Please create a search site to search all of kijiji in Canada Searching each province is a PITA

Ha, ironically I experience the frustration of searching Kijiji by province myself, but the market just isn't there to make a website financially viable. Canadian market is tiny compared to the US in the first place, and because you can search by province it's not quite as painful as craigslist, so fewer people would seek out a site like ours. Maybe someday I'll make one for fun, but have a lot on my plate... :P

94 Supra TT, nice! I owned a MKIII back in the day and always wanted a IV. Definitely bring it out! (Also, nice collection of cars you have!)

Kijiji app can search all of Canada at once. At least the android one does. And you can save your search and get instant notifications once a matching item is posted anywhere in the country.

MKIV Supra was on my bucket list as well. Years ago I had a 92 Lexus SC400 with a bunch of Supra upgrades (brakes, coilovers etc) but the MKIV is special. The interior cockpit is driver focused and despite being large it handles very well while pulling like a freight train.

Thanks Stan I will give the app a try!

This gave me an idea. I figured if the app can search all of Canada, maybe the website can too. And indeed it can - it's just hidden. So, I threw together a little page that will do it. Here you go - search all of Kijiji!

http://www.searchtempest.com/kijiji

(Once you search, you can also tweak categories, price/year filters, etc. on the results page.)

An 09 too! That's a great price. If anyone does find out the history, let us know. I'm curious.

This one is cheaper and way lower mileage but might be a scam:

Obvious scam - price is wayyyyyy too good to be true and the plates are hidden too well.
