I haven't been here that long but I remeber a few things ...

mzmtg used to sell mid-pipes
thblue ran a 14.3 then put S4 headlights
BrianV had and blew an I30 engine in his S/Cd 97
Y2KevSE only had a CAI and ran a 15.2
There were no "diamond cut" clear lenses
HlH blew his auto and was th 1st to do the auto-5spd conversion
Roadbeast ... hehe won't go there
Glok, ran a 14.3 w/ a CF hood (Camry)
There weren't so many ricers or LED's
Emax showed the now Cattman headers didn't add HP, even compared to ported manifolds, remember the pics? The headers were black and everyone was going nuts for them.
DBM would own anyone who would disagree w/him.



Hmm ... all I can think of for now.

Answer is yes he still lives at home, but I hear he's contemplating getting his own place...

... and to the other guy, he has a Titan now. I actually found this picture on his web site a while back (of his Titan), before he took his web site down. I've been saving it for a rainy day...



Apparently Russ is contemplating moving into his own place!!! The guy is so obssessed with his vehicle(s) that he decided to make sure his home and vehicle stay conjoined.

Actually I blew my stock 97 motor and replaced it with a 98 i30 motor. I think that motor is still alive; did go through a couple trannies though.

I was here back in 96' when the DC club was an email list and there was no BBS. I remember Shing's travels across the US, the fund to get Cheston to Maxus 01' from Cali to DC, Meeting David L7 in person to see my first supercharged max, Woodear making too much money for the org, Booker's stories...(i was in some of them), Andi Baritchi, Matt93SE back when he was Matt93GXE and he made a set of speaker pods for me and turned me on to the Focal speaker line. I remember rewiring almost everyone's corners and foglights at Maxus 01'. Russ's mishaps with credit because he kept buying cars.

I was around in early '98, I don't even remember which forum that was. But I do remember Shaun Tran, Russ, Woodear, JimW, and so on. I've got to dig up the pic of my car when it was still green and stock height.

damn a lot of registered year 2000 people. I was here a 2 years before I signed up to the org. It was my brother's pc at the time so all I did was go on the site and just read countless and countless hours or god know what. Half of those things at the time didnt make any sense to me.

Damn ya know, its hard to believe I joined in 98 when I first bought her. Ah the memories. If only I would post more outside of Ot, my post count would be higher. i remember when I was at 16 for the longest time, then Ot posts stopped counting and that's all she wrote.....
