New From CT

Hey guys, just checking in, picked up my first ls1 car a few months ago, a white 2000 Z28 A4. So far i have really enjoyed the car, picked it up bone stock and only mod so far is SLP LM1 exhaust and plan on doing just a few more bolt on stuff and keeping it simple. While looking for a car i was looking around the forums reading up on some info and checking out some of the real nice cars so i figured its about time i sign up.
Looking forward to getting to know the site
Later guys.

Heres a pic of the car with my brothers black SS

Congrats and Welcome. I like this statement, "plan on doing just a few more bolt on stuff and keeping it simple." it makes me Laugh!! that was most of our Original Plan, but as always it is Never Enough.
