New guy, new to TX
Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 11:52 am
Hello all and Happy Lunar New Years to those who celebrate it!! My name is Quang and I would like to introduce myself and share a little something about me. I am originally from VA and have recently moved to Houston TX (south of Houston right next to Pearland). So far I am loving this winter weather here!!
Anyways, Toyotas have been my root ever since I taught myself how to drive stick-shift from taking my Dad's 87 Supra (he never knew I took it out) when I was 15 (now 28). The first car I owned when I received my license was an 87 Celica All-trac. I had no idea what I owned at the time, besides being a celica, since my Aunt/Uncle wanted to sell it to me while they were shopping for a new car. Unfortunately, the car was totaled by a careless semi-truck driver on a rainy day.
For the past 3 years I have been into the drifting scene with my current track car being a 93 240sx (SR20 swap, Tein Coilovers, 2-way diff). I cannot wait for the drift events that are sneaking up soon. But, I need to get my cars transferred from VA. In the time being I am looking for either a Cressida or Starlet as my next project. So far, I have owned many Hondas, Toyotas, Mazda and Nissans throughout my adolescents, however my favorites are the following;
87 Supra Turbo
87 Celica All-trac
86 Corolla GT-S Coupe (first 86 I ever owned)
87 Corolla GT-S Coupe ST20v
94 Supra Non-turbo
97 Civic Hatchback
96 Miata Hardtop
93 240sx SR20 swap (current drift car)
2010 WRX hatch (current daily)
