VA Vairon From Northern VA

Hey Everyone,

New member here driving a 2010 Toyota Yaris.

After getting excited from attending car meets in Virginia I started to do very small modifications to my Yaris, you can laugh, to learn the ropes of car modifications. I have really gotten into RX-7s after researching for more complex topics such as turbo charging, engine removal, etc. I specifically got interested in the forums after following Aaron Cake’s Cosmo restoration project on YouTube and finding a link to the forums from his website.

Again, I’m just here to learn more about cars and interact with people that have such amazing cars, not make a 1000 thread about “can I afford x car?”. Hopefully I will be accepted into this community.

-Vairon

There's a lot of good information on this forum. You have to sift through a lot of crap to find it. Aaron Cake is pretty reliable. I also find Satch to be very helpful. There are a few others too. Being older, I think I'm less adept at sifting through all the other stuff to find the helpful information though.

Pardon the humor, but I can't help but recall the episode of American Top Gear where they referred to "Yaris. The Greek god of disappointment.

Thanks for the welcome and the pointers.
I'll definitely do lots of reading as I plan on some day doing something more complex to my car. Sadly I don't have a second mode of transportation an that limits what I can do.
