It's kinda on you... Word will spread once you make yourself known. Just look for the hot white guy or the little asian girl and you'll find me... And then I can help familiarize you with who everyone is lol Probably looking at the usual 20 or so people stopping by so it shouldn't be to hectic for you.

She is? I was so busy ogling her FD that I'm afraid I didn't notice. Sorry Mai. I guess I'll have to make it a second time.

BTW, don't believe Tim. Most of the women at the Autocross events are MUCH more attractive than any of the guys. Of course, I'm 50 and have the perspective of years which means that women don't have to be young, to be attractive.

Come to think of it, I've only met two of the women on the forum here in person, and despite my kidding of Mai above, both are very pretty.

that's funny, if i were you, i would be doing the same thing ogling her FD instead of getting to know Mai.

Seriously, she has a very nice FD. Makes mine look downright dumpy in comparison. I made it last month and it was fun seeing all the cars. I learned a lot from listening to folks.

oh, that's great. I want to make a sleeper car. not really a fan of crazy body kits/widebody, big wings and bling bling wheels. Currently i have 94 JDM tail lights, mechanical boost controller, which i'm going to switch it to apexi PFC or microtech as this 2 really easy to tune based on my research on this website. Maybe a carbon fiber hood, and for headlights, i wanted to buy the sleek headlights from EVO-R as the headlights that the previous owners installed is kind of cheesy and fake.

Yeah if you're running a manual boost controller on the stock ecu you might wanna remove it until you get an aftermarket ecu installed. And the PowerFC is a great choice. If you're in Tacoma you should consider coming out to the July Steve Kan tuning session and meeting THE MAN. He'll impart a lot of knowledge throughout the day. One thing I like about us NWesters is we tend to appreciate the stock body lines of the FD... Just add our own little twist with wheels, suspension, and spoilers.

Also fyi, you might wanna add quotations around "sleeper" cuz it's not possible to make an FD a "sleeper" lol Imean the closest you can get is throwing an LS series motor in it. Or keeping it all stock on the outside with big single and lots of power
