Hi everybody
Im jay, i joined this forum last night. I've been mucking around with cars since i was young and very interested in the Japanese car scene ... i really get into 'era-specific' builds. I own an CA NA s13 with SR 180 Lsd rear end and, I have no desire to go turbo.
So as you can imagine I'm not the coolest fellow at the cruises. My car is not 'fast' off the line, but its fun and sharp once at speed
I joined because, to be very honest, I used to frequent infinite motorsport web site hoping one day i could get a set of (era specific - yes i use that phrase a lot) rims for my S13....i used to love seeing the SSR meshies and other rims of old school japan. However that site is down (i think) and my search for that shop had me end up here.
as far as cars in general ... i'd like to one day own an 86 with a 4age 20v set up for street / grip (actually, any rear drive toyo with a 4age would be nice). Thats another thing - i love grip driving. and speaking of future cars, if anyone wants to give me a 190e or e30 i wouldn't say no =)
I would like to just maintain my car, future plans are a 1 piece tailshaft, chassis rigidity, big breaks and possibly a custom exhaust header....oh and those era specific rims...wide japanese meshies in 16'' or 17'' would be nice.
Cheers
Jay

Hahaha go away Anthony, you defected to Nissan!
The new owner is on here very so often too I think, username Stej from memory.
Hey Phirom your right. Stej (Steve) does own a Panda Trueno notch with a turbo 4agte in it. I saw him only yesterday and was chatting about his car.
Welcome Anthony. Steve is a great guy and I'm sure if you wanted to pm him about the car he would be more than happy to chat about it.
The good old days hey LOL
Nice pic. Would be great to see a group of 86's from Perth like this again, with some of the same cars.

Hi all, I'm David from Ireland, been living in Perth over 2 years now. I have a stock Ae71 panel van needing a little tlc and a ke70 panel van which I half way through a 20 valve blacktop conversion. Hope to have the ae71 on the road in the next few weeks to use as a daily driver. And then concentrate on finishing the 20 valve conversion in the ke70.
