Coming to Hawaii!!

I am happy to say I finally get to come to Hawaii!!! I will be working in Schofield for 3 weeks starting this Sunday till June 7th. I am really into cars and would love to drive around and meet people, check out the car scene/meets, and go to the car shops and maybe buy some parts! I have always wanted to come to Hawaii and now I get to go for free and for three weeks!!!! Pearl Harbor is def on the list of places I want to visit. Anything you can point out for me to go see/try would be great. Especially anything related to cars. Thanks, hopefully I will meet some of you while I am there!

Are you coming alone or with the GF,wife/kids? As for North Shore, there's some really nice beaches, Historic Haleiwa Town for some good Shave Ice, or just plain cruising to get the feel of older Hawaii. Down in Waikiki, there's lot's of shopping, typical City life, and.......traffic. Is there anything in particular that you're looking to do or see? If you need any recommendations post up what you're looking for and I'm sure others will chime in. Welcome...

Thanks for all the warm welcomes. I am coming alone so its just me. I really want to see anything thats great on the island I am staying in. I also love cars and anything related to them (except for NASCAR). So any car shops/stores/meets I am DEF up for. I will be working 12 hour days and get off around 7pm, so I am good to go anywhere after then and I am free all weekend. I won't be chilling with anyone really from my job since they have their own "clicks". So any Suby meets, stores, etc I am def game. Let me know and we could meet up or something. BTW, if you want to know how crazy I am with cars, heres my journal on IWSTi.com Just to show you the proof .

Now that's one f'in long mod list man. As for shops, you can check out R&D's. They're the local Suby "favorite" and a couple of the guys there are Suby owners and I-club members. Cool guys. And of course, there's the Suby meets that we have every Friday night at Starbucks locations around the island. In fact this Friday night's one is at the Stadium Mall Starbucks which is only minutes away from Pearl Harbor.

Cant remember off hand but just google Jaguar Hawaii and they are located right across from them. You will know its them since most of the HIIC peeps are found there and you'll find a bunch of Subie's there. And along side them are a bunch of mopeds.
