thanks, great to be back. I got a job out here working on helicopters that SEEMED great, you get paid alot but they make up for it by charging an arm and a leg for everything. I mean I didn't think about it before I came over here but every food source is imported and they tax the crap out of beer, but all in all its good.
now to the cars, there's all kinds of ferari's, lambo's, slk's, veyron's(if that's how you even spell it) around here but the actual car tuning scene sucks. You won't really see too many modified cars and if you do almost none of them have any work done to them whatsoever by the owner. plus the laws regarding mods are very strict.
But the great thing is that I have one of about 14 240's in the country. Imagine that a whole country without 240's. It reminds me of when i got my first one in 2000, people are like what's that car, oh and a sr20 front clip is 700 dollars on the high end because there's no one to buy them. another thing there's no integra's anywhere. It's like the most seen cars back home are no where to be found and the most exotic are all over the place. The EVO is king here, it's the most tuned car in this country and you see about 20 a day also the holden's are all over the place.
my car pretty much sucks at the moment so not photo worthy at all. It was the only 240 available so i just bought it because it was the only one around. slowly i'm getting parts together, but shipping parts from the states and the uk gets pretty expensive fast and i keep getting reminded by my wife that we came to make money not spend it all on my car. Maybe i'll make some kind of build diary and show you guys all the little ghetto places i have to go to find bolts, hoses, sandpaper and pretty much anything you can find at any autozone, pepboys, advance. I miss those places so much!!!!
