New to SC from upstate NY
 
Well, soon to be a new resident in the Greenville SC area. :)

Um. I'm a car guy. I do car guy things. Mostly fix broken stuff and start projects I never finish.

Pictures are fun. Here are the most recent toys. I'll probably start fresh once I get down to Greenville, SC. In the mean time, I hope to meet a bunch of new car guys. :cheers

Welcome aboard. Is that a Mariah body kit on the RX-7 ? I used to have that same whale tail on my '85 back in the day.

I have a AR 80% and lower kit. Not sure if or when I'll get around to milling it out, but when I do I'll add some 'Murica stickers to my car! pew pew pew!


SVO has a funny story. Buddy going through a divorce, wife wants the value of the car in the split. Brings it to my shop, pulls the motor ( it ran perfect)

Wife's lawyer comes looking for the car, we bring him to the shop, open the hood "See, it's worthless".

Of course, the tragedy is that was some 6 years ago, and the car is just collecting dust.

Sounds like a good candidate for a boosted LS swap:mrgreen:

look up Upstate Euro Car Club on facebook. I no longer associate with them but they are a big bmw crowd. BMWCCA is also based out of downtown greenville, sc. Cars and Coffee is at Michelin N.A. HQ every 4th saturday. Greer Dragway is open thursday nights and saturday at noon. the ricer meets are under "The New Ville" on facebook. if you're into truck stuff check out "Upstate Showoffz" on facebook as well. The local SCCA group is pretty cool around here. Central Carolina Region CCR-SCCA.

Welcome! I am from the greenville area as well! If you wanna talk some car talk and see some sweet cars, there is a cars and coffee meet at the end of every month at the Michelin building off Pelham Road in Greenville. I always try and make it out when I can and it's never a dull moment there!

RoadconeTuning 03-24-2015 08:27 AM

btw, Michelin is doing a "sneak peek" of the BFGoodrich Comp2 All-Season tire that will be publicly announced on April 1st at Cars and Coffee this month. They will also be giving out some stuff.

Whale come

I like your style. Working on a 5.3 rx7 here.

Whats bringing you to the upstate? Greenville is a really nice area, until you look down at the roads, then it sucks. You have been warned.

True, definitely more upstate than lowcountry though, unfortunately.
