To get to the point so short and sweet, are there any 240s/ Drifters down in the SM Austin area on this site? im feeling lonely and i havent seen another 240 yet only WRXs and GTs

What's up I'm from san Marcos what you drive?

jspaeth · 12-02-2010, 10:36 AM

My girlfriend used to go to Texas State........I am from NJ.....I used to fly down to visit her every month or two.....saw a couple of decent 240s down there.

There are definitely some nice corners on the roads around the campus!

maf_49er · 12-02-2010, 10:45 AM

Well theirs like 4 s13s hatches

SilviaxDr3aMz · 12-13-2010, 03:08 PM

I drive a red s13 coupe. their is people on campus, but i never see them around. so i guess that dosent really help. im down to meet up or something...

The campus has amazing corners but sessom is typically busy though, i might hit it up sometime when i get the traffic down better.

maf_49er · 12-15-2010, 11:21 AM

Are you that guy that has the red coupe with the white front in?

SyCK · 12-22-2010, 07:29 AM

Texas state used to be a good party school when it was Southwest Uni. Haven't been there in years but yeah, there are some nice roads around there.

jakins · 12-22-2010, 11:21 PM

SilviaxDr3aMz · 01-25-2011, 02:46 AM

Would anyone happen to know of any good shops down here? because i have no idea how i would go about finding a trust worthy one in this area.

maf_49er · 01-25-2011, 08:22 AM

Yeah it would be lol What kind of shop are you looking for? If your interested in selling the coupe let me know at 5125579468

SilviaxDr3aMz · 01-25-2011, 02:56 PM

I'm looking one for an exhaust adjustment, but it would be nice to just have one in this area that could also do a wide range of work period.
Definently not looking to sell the coupe though lol, first and last car. (may be a little extreme there)

maf_49er · 01-25-2011, 04:45 PM

That's cool if you want your exhaust adjusted you might want to go to n&l they can mess with it

SilviaxDr3aMz · 01-26-2011, 12:20 AM

wheres that? like city wise?

redfox · 01-29-2011, 01:49 PM

If you're looking for a high quality shop, I would suggest SPL or Boost Logic. Both shops are in Austin, but be ready to fork out some serious cash if you go to Boost Logic.

I live just north of Austin in Georgetown, but the woman and I are looking at buying a house in the Buda area, since I work in downtown Austin.

maf_49er · 01-30-2011, 04:35 AM

O yeah there's PI tech in buda to but I think they might turn it into a bike shop

SilviaxDr3aMz · 10-08-2012, 11:31 PM

Maf_49er, You still in SM?

aaronlosey · 10-10-2012, 12:07 PM

Howdy and welcome to Texas! If you are about sliding your car around, then here is the forum to find the local drifters at Fabricated Motorsports - Index . There are lots of events to go drive at, with lots of friendly people at them. The majority of the events are located just outside the Fort Worth area, with some Houston ones, and a few others thrown in for good measure. These events have instruction for completely new people, and awesome tandem for the advanced drivers. There is something happening every single month as well.

The next event in our Formula Drift Proam Series down here happens on November 11th, and here is the facebook event page. Final Round of the 2012 Lone Star Drift Series | Facebook

As for shops, depending on what you need there are plenty of places to go. If you need fabrication shops, tuning shops, or just parts, you kind of go to different places. Hit me up if you need recommendations for something specific. I am not a shop but I know of a lot of them around Texas.

SilviaxDr3aMz · 10-14-2012, 11:02 PM

Cool man thanks, ill keep that in mind. Im originally from FT. Worth so i know there is a good amount around there. I actually still need somewhere to get exhaust work done, as well as idle issues.

aaronlosey · 10-24-2012, 04:57 PM

Hit up Russell if you don't mind driving up to Austin.
