this is what i ended up with


but my brother and i shared a great deal of passion for cars, it really brought us together, he said i was the reason he got into cars, im 10yrs older than him so when i had my turboed integra he was in jr high. His first car was a sti, than and s2k and than a evo than finally another s2k. He inspired me to start wreching on my own car, i was always to afraid of breaking something but he taught me to just dive into it, thats how u learn, he also inspired me to wanna hit up the track, only track experience i ever had was drag racing back in like 2000 lol. Guess we inspired in each other in different ways i think him more than me. Now i drive his car since he no longer is here and i try my best to do what he would with it, already had 2 track days under my belt and expect to do more
sorry to hear about your loss man! cars look nice and im sure your brother is with you every time u hit that track

My dad's last 3 cars were a buick regal, ford taurus, and a mercury sable. He's an architect. I'm a medical student. He has no idea what the difference between a SC or a turbo is. I'm jealous of you guys with gearhead dads.

However, my sister's fiance and I have been car nuts together for 7 years... he died of a heart attack a week ago at 25. HUG YOUR CAR BUDDIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I appreciate it. Everyone is holding it together. It was really tough to detail his Jeep for the last time and put it into storage. He always kept that thing immaculate, so I couldn't put it to bed dirty...
