Im appearently a newb lol....hello everyone

Hi everyone. i subscribed to this thread because my roommate is a C32 owner. I love his car and seeing im always working on it i thought it might be cool to join his forum. I love reading the tech pages you guys post and from what i understand Brandon from code 3 performance is a pretty cool guy. ( i more or less want to see the rest of his fabrication). so with out further-adue (sp?) i will introduce my self/car/and hobbies with a few words and picture.

Im Ryan, i drive a 1980 Rx-7 with a S.B.F for a power plant. I enjoy driving and working on cars. I do *ALL* of my own work as seeing no one would every want to even attempt to figure out the ish i have constructed with my car. i like working on my roommates c32 and think some of there designs are fairly interesting. I am fairly young and am currently Majoring in Automotive Technology and Machine Engineering. This is pretty much what i do with my life.....







*my roof lining*






















That is all = )

it was an easy choice lol....

would you rather have an 80hp 60 ft lb 12A................ or a bone stock 302 that makes more than double both those stats lmao....
