Hey everyone, used to have an s13 coupe back in the day, wrecked it.

Went through a few cars including an FC3S and Z32.
Had a Ninja ZX-6R sportbike for a while as well as a camry beater for a rainy day.

Just picked up a 92 fastback, and here I am. Completely stock so far, just did a Silvia dual projector swap, and more to come.

Hope to make it out to some of the meets and meet some new people. Just hope there aren't gonna be a bunch of assholes who are gonna give me shit for having an ebay pipe or non-jdm wheels (should I decide to) Personally, I'm not as big on beating on my car at the track, as I am about having a clean looking ride. So excuse me in advance for not having $2000 forged wheels or $6000 coilovers. The car community is renowned for having those kinds of haters, its one reason I stepped away for a while an joined the bike community. It's totally different, anyone that has had a bike knows exactly what I'm talking about. For the most part, everyone treats you like family and is respectful regardless of you have a race-quality bike or one built by ebay.

I'm not sure how the car community has changed in the last 6 or so years, if at all, but i'm excited to be back and meet some new faces. Hope to see you guys around.

The car community hasn't changed much since six years ago. If anything its become more snobbish. You just gotta surround yourself with the type of people who are just in it for the passion of cars. If you find yourself at a meet, look for the people who are laughing and having a good time, instead of the people standing around staring at the most expensive car there. Its all about the type of people you socialize with.

man, that's really a shame to hear. im definitely one of those people are are in it just for the love of cars. i could care less if ur rockin volks or rotas as long as your car doesnt look like something from fast and furious 1. i'll definitely keep that advice in mind, look forward to meeting some of u guys.
