| Hey all, name is Ian and am from Madison, WI. On a few other forums with Bigben and he passed the word on this new forum, and since I do own a Nissan and AM in the midwest, I thought it was all too fitting to join the forum! Pics of the old lady. I do mainly autocross with her in the GS class, I just got a very large box of parts however and it should bump me to STS or STX, not sure if I am in the mood to buy larger tires to be competitive (225 is class max for STS, 245 for STX).       Any other autocross fans out there? Edit: That is/was my white 91 Galant VR4 as well, any mitsu fans on here? |

Well one can always say there are "plans" for mods. LOL. Now whether or not they get carried out is another story.
I have a ton of ideas floating around in my head, but alot of it hinges on my classing for Auto-X. I really want an LS1 or 1JZ/2JZ, however, since its from a different manufacturer I get thrown into the "Unlimited" classes. To stay competetive I will have to stay in the Nissan family (RB/SR/KA/VG/VQ). Which is fine and all, I just dont agree with the Money VS Power of the Nissan choices. I am actually trying to avoid turbo altogether. I have only had turbo cars up until this point and I do get tired of chasing boost leaks, retuning for warmer/colder weather, all the misc BS that has to be bought for a turbo car (wastegate, BOV, intercooler, turbo timer, boost controller, intercooler piping, turbo itself, manifold, heat buildup, oil lines, coolant lines).
Its just really not appealing to deal with all that BS again, not to mention the $$$ spent will be obscene. Where as with an LSX I can reliably make 500hp with H/C/I and a good tune for minimal cost. The loping V8 has always been a dream of mine, but in a decent chassis (not an F-body or Stang).
Like I said, I dont know where I will end up going with it. A house and engagement ring for the G/F (7 years, I know, ask already, LOL) should def. trump any plans for the car. I have bought a ton of suspension mods from a guy getting out of the game so I have a ton of things for it handling wise, but stone stock motor.
Quite a few of the suspension mods that I bought will also throw me out of a few classes so I wont even be able to use them right away (ARUCA for example).
Is this "Broadfield" from Zilvia.net BTW?
If so, Im a huge fan. |

LOL. Yeah, I wanted some professional pics of the car in its stock form before I go and do anything. Its fun to remember your car the way you got it and how nice and pretty it really was before it got "spoiled".
I have been found out...::gasp::
Also, Toby, I didnt know you were hailing from IL (my home state) so I would think that being in the midwest may make it possible that you are indeed the same person.
P.S. - Go back to bronze! |

LOL, sort of. Well we dont have any decent pics of us as of late, so it just seemed like something nice I could do for her. Sorry, I didnt know what you were aluding to.
Wedding wont be for awhile, not while her ass is in school. No way she can be studious with her masters AND plan a wedding. |
