#1100, "Hello...new to forum"

I finally got a 2gNT this last October after looking for several years (and waiting for the right time). It had less than 57k on it so it was in great shape (a few cosmetic issues that mostly have been fixed), but am now looking to doing some upgrades for performance. I had a 93 RS years ago and loved it until the timing belt broke and fried the whole thing, and had been wanting a newer one ever since.
I have already added an AEM Short Ram Intake and a front strut tower brace. Next will be an oversized throttle body, probably here in the next few weeks. I am currently researching the turbocharging idea, but that will be sometime down the road.
Anyway, hello from Texas.

BTW, anyone else here in the Dallas area?

200,00+ miles? How well does the chassis hold up (referring to all the creaks and noises that eventually show up)?

Welcome! I'm in the Houston area so not too far away. Your probably close to dsmmyth. If you are researching the turbocharging idea, this is the place to find all the info you need. Make sure to use the search before posting and you should find your stay just fine

I'm pretty good with the search stuff, already found good article on turbocharging which I have printed out and am studying until my eyeballs bleed. Ocassionally I will ask the random, obvious/stupid question.

He does alot of stuff without us knowing. I shipped him my wheels to MN, and weeks later he moved down to Houston.

I could have saved loads of cash on shipping costs.

Oh don't give me that lol. I moved at least 2-3 months after you shipped them to me. And I didn't even realize you were from Texas at the time.

LOL I posted it I thought, ya must have missed it. Where you live in the Houston area? I am in the Spring area, kind of on the edge. I'm like 10 min. west of Humble/Atascocita off of FM 1960.

eh, not too bad, I just noticed rust the other day at the bottom of my doors on the inside. Other than rust, she's holding up very nicely. Well, that and some strange sound under the hood, yes it's coming from the timing side of the engine.

Welcome, Joe.

There are some damn good 2GNTers in Texas. So good that there are times I think about moving there myself. (God help you all if I do.) There are power stages up on the home page under one of the tabs and if you keep an eye out, they have all been recently rewritten with a great deal of new information and should be up soon. I bet it helps a lot. I wrote it with the intentions of helping a newbie get his feet wet and then move all the way to the top of the game. If you want, drop me a PM with your email address and I could send it to you beforehand. It's about 10,000 words, but you'd be surprised how easy it is to read. emoji

You'll find this community second to none. Show some common sense and respect and you'll go far, here.

Whitney. It's near Blum, which is near Cleburne. Cleburne then is near Burleson.

You get the idea.

Also, you don't need the <img src=> tags. They have it set up so you just put in the link and it automatically detects it's a picture.
