Default Another new guy...

Hi guys. I stumbled upon your forum one day when looking for stuff for my VW. I started reading, and was hooked. I have always like old american muscle cars, but had a pretty bad, and VERY ignorant, view of the newer Camaros and firebirds. Now I have seen the light, and I sooo want to get a TA asap. I am in college right now, though, so I think it will be some time before I will actually be able to afford one. Anyway, I was just letting you guys know that I will probably be posting some stuff here and there. From what I have seen, you guys really know your stuff and I have learned a lot from you guys. I am glad that , for the most part, you guys view rice as basically the drivers, not the actual cars(although a civic with a huge wing and rims, with a fart can and ground effects kit, that has no go, no matter what the driver, in my opinion, is always gonna be rice if he enjoys driving the car). I myself am big into german cars(as well as cars from the good ol' USA), and currently drive an 89 Jetta that I will mod this summer. Well, I guess what I am saying is that, well, I am glad, I think, that just cuz i have an import, doesnt mean I am a ricer. After all, if I was, I wouldnt be posting and reading here. Sorry for this being so long. Just thought I would let you guys know my story before I start posting. I you guys(well, most of you anyway)

welcome to the board.. Most people think that the LS1 is a gas guzzler that doesn't put out the power that it should. They're wrong, that's the LT1

Keep tryin to reach your goal of the T/A, and you'll get there. I putted around in my ricey 95 v6 for a year until I could afford my z28. Welcome aboard.

Thanks for the welcome guys. Haha, SM, I guess you got stuck with the gas guzzler that doesnt put out the power it should And what is your beef with porsche? Just cuz you cant afford one means anyone that can has a small *****? haha, j/k. You are, from what I have seen, one of the cooler guys on this forum. Just your sig a little while back kinda annoyed me a little, cuz, I Like porsche a lot(too bad they ARE overpriced)

Maybe ill have to get an older model firebird/camaro first. Do any of you know what year they stopped making them compatible with a big block? without having to rework the whole car, i mean.

Actually, I like Porsches. The banner was directed at Porsche owners. That banner was one of my favs, unfortunately the server for it was taken down and I lost it I want it back, though!

my buddy has an Audi S4 (i assume people know that audi is just fancy VW). very nice car. more ****** buttons and lights than an F-14 though. i almost bought an A4 when i was looking for a new car... then i found the T/A.

i got my *** owned one night by a 1.8T A4 on the beltway about a year ago when i was still in the GT. pretty humbling. impressive power you can get out of those engines if you know what you're doing.

jetta was the ugliest car in F&F tho. hahah

I'm not sure ... F-14's have lots of buttons and lights ...


Welcome to the board kiddo ... I'm sure you'll find us very entertaining, especially when we find someone to pick on. Just make sure you don't become that person, and you'll enjoy your stay here on LS1tech.com.

haha

P.S. why the **** aren't my smilies moving? They're all stationary and don't move. I know it's some sort of setting, but I have tried everything and nothing helps. Anyone?
