Hi!
Just introducing myself here. I own a Hachi like my name says :)

I'm 16 and a student. And I've got a deep, deeeep, deeeeep love for cars and basically everything on wheels, or things that fly.

Looking forward to making new friends with fellow petrolheads :happy:

Hachi is Japanese for eight. Hachiroku is 86 or the loving name for the AE86

Thanks everybody!

@Coyote, is your BNR-32 registered in Dubai? That's amazing if it is :|

And I'll post pictures when I take some more. The most recent one I have is after I installed a K&N Cold air intake.

After I'm done with my exams, I'm planning to do some major work on it, so it looks it rolled right out of the dealership!

Too bad you can't get a job here at 16 :(
Money, money, money =(

Edit: and the engine bay isn't ever that dirty. It's just been parked under a tree for the past couple of days, and with the weird weather these days and all :P

Sadly no. I haven't registered it, since its RHD and I'm planning to keep it that way. Its my track car, will do an engine overhaul pretty soon, after I get all my lubes, tools, piston compressor and some few gubbins & parts in the mail :!:

I am however on the lookout for an already rego'd R32/R33. I'm willing to get rid of my engine-less 350Z for one.

Ah, that sucks. :(
If you need parts, or even cars, let me know. Better priced and better than most of the garbage you get here.
Personally, I wouldn't mess with the converted cars. If I were to spend that kind of money, I'd get a stock MK4 Supra, an NSX, MR2 or something alone those lines.
