I am new to this forum, and I was referred by GamblerZ, so if any recruiting points are given, he's the bugger who gets them.
My name is Matt, and I live in the big state of Texas, where distance is measured in hours. lol.
Anyways, my first car was a Toyota Celica XX otherwise known as Supra in the states. But my first vehicle was a truck, but since this is an import AE86 forum, it need not mentioning. I got my first car when I lived in Okinawa, it was the Celica XX. I then seemed to own/drive/mangle almost every manufacturer of the Japanese car brands whilst living on Kadena. From '93 to '95 I had the privilege to own/drive/mangle 14 cars in that span. Currently, I have an SR5 being converted into a Nissan, a Silvia, a Classic Mini, and for my names sake, a 'Busa.
I have built some nice cars, from my almost completey JDM Silvia, to a couple V8 240's and several other makes and models. I am now focusing my interests on my SR5, by turning it into a Nissan by putting all the suspension, brakes, powertrain and electrical into it. Basically using only the shell from Toyota. I plan on keeping it stock powered for the time being to work out bugs and what not. I think it will be a fun car.
Anyways, I look forward to post some stuff that I build and to see what others have to offer, but alas, I am unable to access the Nissan transplant section. Oh well.
Cheers
