    Cool Hello from Central Texas

    Hello MR, my name is Walter, I grew up in Austin Texas, and I am too big for my car; hence the screen name. I was turned on to this site by Adam when I purchased some of his Revlimiter gauges, but never got around to signing up until now. The ProjectG raffle pushed me over the edge, but I missed the deadline

    I initially got into miatas because I needed a cheap daily driver, and one of my neighbors just happened to be selling a mariner blue 91 with hardtop.


    I used it for work and school, but after driving it and seeing how fun they were, the mod bug bit me.

    Ended up changing the suspension, wheels, audio, paint, and a ton of other stuff before it got totaled.


    I now own a 93 C-package that is receiving all the old goodies plus many more, and a 2000 NB for daily duties so I don't have to worry about dumb drivers running into me everyday. I'll probably post up a build thread soon, as well as some extra items I won't need in the classifieds after I browse some of the threads here.

    I'm missing "Shut up and take my money"

    So yeah... it looks frickin' awesome and it's a shame I'm not in the USA or I would've stalked you to get a photoshoot.

    Thanks man. Here are a few more pictures where you can really see the paint in the sunlight.





    And I went ahead a started a build thread for the new car in case anyone wants to check it out. Hoping to step it up another level.
