  1. Don't really know what to say about my self other than I'm pretty much a car freak through and through. I'll make sure to post some car pictures to avoid maximum fail though. Sorry if the first one is too big. This is my '63 Mercury Comet. I dropped in the mild 289 and a T5 and also did the axle swap. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg165/Mercury_Kid/DSC05723.jpg This is the daily. It's running a supercharged single slam with the usual bolt-ons. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg165/Mercury_Kid/DSC05726.jpg

  2. Hey everyone, I guess this is my Intro. Hmm where to begin. I'm a student at Ohio State; I'll be graduating here before too long, but the plan is to continue on and get a masters degree. I was born and raised in the Columbus area. I enjoy the outdoors and making things. Speaking of making things, my latest hobby has been making my own knives. Probably seems a little odd, but it's not like I can enjoy the outdoors when it's cold, and I don't exactly have a heated garage. Other than that, just hanging out with people when I can. I've been into cars since my older brothers used to work on their cars in the driveway when I was a kid. I don't have a whole lot of experience with much in the ways of racing, but I do enjoy watching motorsports on occasion. I drive a 1993 Toyota MR2. It's white and has a border front bumper on it, perhaps some of you have seen me around Columbus. I know a few people who said they post on the forums here but I couldn't tell you what their usernames are. I've been a member of a group of car enthusiasts from the northwest side of town called Integrated Motorsports since high school. Basically just a group of friends that all enjoy cars; we get together and have a few beers one night a week in the summer and usually have a barbecue during the summer. Basically, joining up because I'd like to get to know some of the other car enthusiasts around town, learn about local car shows and whatnot.

  4. hey everyone. I hate introductions, but since I have to post up I will tell you about me. First I have been working on cars since I was 16, started off with a slow camaro, bought a cavalier (which i still have), then I bought a 2002 CBR954RR, a few months after I bought my bike I was t-boned by a jeep cherokee. So while I was laid up and collected unemployment and insurance money I purchased a 1991 Eagle Talon Tsi. Since then I have invested way too much of my money into this beast of a car. Back in late november I fried the wiring harness in multiple spots (previous owner had a wrong altenator on it). Then I decided to jack the car up and perform some adjustments on it, and the jack went through the floor board. (the talon is a canadian model, thus rust has been a big issue). Needless to say, after much of my time, I have decided to do this car right, and I bought a 91 eclipse gsx, that has a beautiful frame, and wiring harness. I am in the process of swapping everything over from the talon to the eclipse. Now for the parts list. Full suspension, you name it, i have it, just not adjustable tubular a-arms (which i really want but cannot afford at the moment), bushings all around, bigger sway bars, strut bars, eibach pro-kit, kyb agx struts, (next step is coil overs all around but again, it costs money). Engine mods:currently big 16g (which once i pull the motor that is being upgraded to a gt3582r or a holset hx40) 560cc injectors, holley fuel rail, aeromotive a1000 fuel pump, 8 gallon jnz fuel cell, aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, all stainless fuel lines, tial wastegate, greddy type s, and greddy type rs BOV, fmic, 3 inch open down pipe, Apexi AVCR electronic boost controller, SAFC (which is being replaced by DSM link or megasquirt that is still up for debate), all autometer guages (name the gauge I probably have it). Shep stage 3 transmission also with a welded center diff. Umm, really can't think but I know I missing probably a lot. My best time at Beech Bend 1/4 mile track was 11.626 at 121mph, my 1/8th was 7.542 at 94mph and my 60ft was 1.76. The same day I broke my rear axle and destroyed my transmission. I hate track bite, its to rough, haha. A little about myself, I am a broke college student going to Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky. I have been working at Advance Auto Parts for over 3 years, and during that time I have also worked at the Corvette Plant for a year and a half. Below are some pictures of my toys. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p53/brian-preston/Talon%20Parts/DSC_0204.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p53/brian-preston/Talon%20Parts/DSC_0197.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p53/brian-preston/Talon%20Parts/DSC_0198.jpg Those are all of my Talon, this eclipse is what I am currently swapping into. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p53/brian-preston/DSC_0128.jpg and last but not least, a memory of my old toy that was destroyed by a jeep. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p53/brian-preston/Picture054.jpg also, I am trying to start my own photo business so if you want some shots let me know, I am a cheap photographer, and can show you my portfolio.
