Not new, but introducing myself
I've been posting on this forum here and there, but never really introduced myself. So I figured I'd post a little bit about me...well more about my cars ;)
I'm 25 and have been through a number of cars since I was 17. Here's a quick rundown of what I can remember... 1) 1998 Camaro V6 auto (first car...I knew nothing) 2) 1987 Blazer K5 Silverado. Lifted, big tires, big motor, lots of rust, lots of fun 3) 2002 Acura RSX. My first "new" car that I took out a loan on. Fun to drive, good on gas. 4) 1999 VW GTI VR6. 200K+ miles and still ran fine! Lowered, exhaust, subs. 5) 1995 Talon TSI AWD. Where I first started to really mod cars. Mostly stock. 6) 2001 Acura CL. It was cheap and I thought I was cool. 7) 2006 Chevy Cobalt SS. Supercharged. My first brand new car. Smaller pulley, bigger injectors, and a MAF translater went a long way. 8) 1995 Talon TSI AWD #2. This is my baby. More info below. Still own. 9) 1990 Talon TSI FWD. Bought this not running to fix up, but it required massive motor work so I sold it. 10) 2003 Evo 8. I loved this car. Mostly stock. Good tires. Took it autox-ing. Totalled it into a tree because of a freakin' deer. 11) 2003 VW GTI 1.8t. Bought this after I totalled the evo for cheap. Good car but needed some maintenance. Decided I hate working on german cars. 12) 2008 Chevy Cobalt SS turbocharged. They are cheap, it's brand new, looks good, and goes pretty fast. Still stock. Currently own. Ok, so that's it I think. I may have forgotten a car or two. Right now I still own the 08 cobalt and 95 talon #2. Cobalt: 99.999% stock TWM short shifter 9K miles 14.2 @101MPH Talon: In the midst of a motor swap, but will be: 6 bolt swap Ross 8.5:1 pistons Eagle Rods Clevite bearings BC 272 cams FP 3150 turbo Walbro 255lph fuel pump 880cc injectors DSMLink SSAC FMIC 2gb front bumper Eibach springs Tokiko shocks Various gauges including WB Custom shortened short shifter with shifter bushings Other misc DSM mods 12.5 @ 103MPH I'm hoping to have the Talon back on the road within a month's time. When the weather gets warmer I'll post up some pics of these beauties. Anyway, that's me! Last edited by turbotaloon95; 01-08-2009 at 11:03 AM. |
