I've posted a couple of times already, but thought I'd introduce myself properly.
I'm an 18yr old guy from Adelaide, I live in the hills looking over Adelaide in a suburb called Belair.
I've been into cars for most of my life, not overly seriously but I've helped out Dad every now and again as he's a mechanic. I have always been an adrenaline junkie, first getting into the dangerous sorts when I started Downhill Mountain Biking 5 years ago. I've been driving for a year and a half now and my first car was a '82 Nissan Patrol SWB but 3 months ago I traded it in for a Rover 416i. For those that think it looks like a Honda, your dead correct, it's the first generation 4 door Integra that wesn't sold as Honda in Oz.

It was a pretty decent upgrade from the Patrol and has some nice power, even though it may be at the front wheels...
To continue the adrenaline juckie ways, I'm looking at either modding this car or upgrading again in the future and eventually taking it to some track days and having some fun. But in the mean time I wonna do the most important bit... THE STEREO!
I've always loved my music, Pretty much always listening to something with my MP3 player, in the car or with the sound system I have at home. About a month and a half ago I scored myself a MTX T6104 sub and a JBL GTO 2000 amp for 100 buks of a teacher at school. Installed it all myself and have built 2 different boxes for the sub. ATM the sub lives in a 67L ported box tuned to 32hz. It was designed in a way that it looks like the sub is just put into the parcle tray as the box is hidden underneath. Sorry, no pictures... yet!
Looking at eventually doing a nice SQ install that won't mean the car will be permentaly modified incase I end up upgrading the car. I've got a few idea's but the choices are so hard
I've been looking on this site for a fair while now, and I've learnt a lot. Sorta hoping that I can give back to the site in some way with helping out others or meeting up with a few of you at a meet sometime.
Anyhoo... Thats all for know, Thanks,
Dale
