Default havent posted here in awhile, so my life update.

figure for all that care id give a personal update.

overall im pretty happy, this is the 1st time Ive had a decent amount of money in the bank since I owned JDMClub, and which john and taylor can attest to, we all use to go clubbin baller style back in those days

my WRX STILL doesnt run, i think about it everyday but i just havent had time to deal with it, i will next week (work permitting). The problem is the legacy longblock is twin turbo, which wont work, so i was gonna swap over the stock single turbo stuff, but the bolt pattern for the exhaust and intake manifolds are different. so i gotta pull the heads off my blown motor and see if they are the same where it counts(which is should be) and if they are take them to engine lab and have them checked out. if all is well ill get some ARPs and cometics and slap the heads back on. The reason I have to do this instead of Sam is because he wants to charge me a bunch more money to do that vs if i just did it myself.

i sold the 400HP corolla and now im driving a 88 nissan sentra auto. 1st auto car ive ever owned, its a ugly POS but it rides pretty good and has heat and COLD AC, plus i only paid $620 for it

i am currently building my SR20 powered corolla which im building from the ground up. i finally got it towed to my apartment yesterday so i can prep it for paint (still waiting on my Jblood body kit) and get it painted, then tow it to taylors to fab up the motor into the car. pics at www.accordclub.com/rolla2

I quit Zfever about 2 weeks ago. the pay wasnt all that great and I was tired of working from 8am to 11pm everyday of the week. so i now work with taylor over at his shop durdan performance fabrications a few days a week, ( i still valet at night) like ill do 1 swap and take the rest of the week off, and in turn, im making about as much as i did at Zfever working much less hours. next week or the week after we will both be working on getting the S14 with the Rb26dett running, which should be fun (and will pay pretty well)

im getting kinda bored with my social life. it seems like the group of friends i use to hang out with just doesnt hang out anymore. im also getting to the point to where i want a girlfriend/date someone (ive dated 1 girl in like the last year), but then I just dont really care on going up and talking to girls. to me its not really even about getting some ass, but more of having a companion.

i have about 4-5 months left on my lease, i dont know if i want to stay in new tampa. my apartment is really nice (most of you have seen it) and is very cheap, but i gotta drive 20+ miles it seems to go anywhere.

i know i havent been out to the meets as i use to (which even coby mentioned to me last night) but it also seems like the meets are struggling themselves. does anyone even go to bennigans on sundays anymore? well, i figure since ive been more MIA now then i have ever been, id make this post for those who care.

glad to hear it mark. i havnt seen you in a long time.

i feel the same way, but then again i hardly have anyone thats actually a full-time type of friend at this point. i need to get on the career bandwagon as well, then maybe i'll finally stop being a loser who lives with his parents.

Yeah I haven't been around to bennigans in a while, the last few times I did I had people talking shit behind my back so I just skip it. Hell I went to QS for the first time in months, I was suprised people even recognized me, lol!!!! I haven't been but last I heard bennigans was still happening on and off.

I'm in a similar situation, finally getting my credit back in line, slowly but surely, bought a new nice truck, I have one bike to ride and another for the track. Just picked up a bike trailer this weekend. Not really partying much since I've had other things to deal with. Stable living arrangement for a while. Tired of issues, tired of settling for second best.... time to get back on the track to the house I want (Give me a few more months scott until my lease is closer to being up) and moving on to bigger things in the future.
