Hey guys my name is Tim and I am currently living in okinawa japan. I was a beemer guy for a while but there is no scene out here so I was looking for something comparable to my E21. Had and RS200 Altezza as my DD for a while and knew what Hachi's were but wasnt interested until a friend took me for a ride in his. I have had my zenki levin for just over a year and it is my go to trackday car. (current DD is a 93 PS13 sr20det). I am from Austin Tx and still have my old chevy truck and the beemer I brought back from germany. The car has been redone underneath and I just bought a 20B for when the 4age decides its had enough. Unless I can find a clean E30 to put it in and keep the Hachi for DD purposes.

Well, if & when you do come state side and you come back to Austin, maybe we'll get some members together to swig some "skis" (brewSKIS) as a welcome back.

yeah its a coupe, came with a sr20de/auto and no LSD, now its det/5spd with LSD, after tracking the hachi the 13 is almost "too" easy to keep sideways ... whitecollar problems i guess...
