Heya Hi - New

Hey guys/gals. Was looking around the internet for dsm sites in the midwest and stumbled upon this lovely website

Little about myself
My name is Nathan/Nate, I reside near Waterloo Iowa. I currently own a dark green 94 Talon TSI project car (all there, but all stock). I use to daily drive a maroon/burgundy/black cherry (whats the actual color name? lol) 93 Talon TSI that was lightly modded but mostly by the previous owner, I had to spend my money on keeping it running.

By the way, you guys have some crazy smiley face options.

Re: Heya Hi - New

Only have pics of the maroon one. The new one is in the garage on stands deciding what exactly I'm doing with it until I have money for the full rebuild. Maybe I'll take some tomorrow so you guys can see what I'm working with =P

This one is much nicer on the eyes anyway, I'm planning on painting the new one back to this color unless I find a nice shell in time.

Re: Heya Hi - New

I've been to CFR but never raced. If anybody plans on going to Midnight Mania May 8th I'll be there, might be driving the Talon might not, definitely not racing.

And yes unfortunately I got a green 1gb =P I think I would have liked any other color better, except maybe red. Not a fan of most red cars. With all the comments on the maroon one now I don't want to post the new one up, it looks like a dump compared to my that one.

Re: Heya Hi - New

If your maroon one is any indication of how you mod cars it can't be that bad. Post it up! Remember, DSM's are always work in progresses.

Re: Heya Hi - New

Here is what I am working with. I haven't done anything to it except put it on those jack stands and JB weld the cracked tranny (temporary until I get a new one).





Untouched engine! That is getting hard to find nowadays =P
