2002 Subaru WRX
When and how did you get into tuning?
Started when I was in college back home. A couple of my classmates were into street racing back then and that's how I got involved. I had my first car group there, going to street races every friday and saturday night.
When I moved to Toronto -- thankfully enough my cousins have the same passion as I do. So they were able to introduce me to their friends and we I was able to be part of this group now.
Most memorable moment:
This happened back home --- there's this one street where all the races are held and me and my buddy decided to give it a go with his 1989 corolla. We were both noobs back then and all we know was dump the clutch, let the tire spin like crazy and off you go. So we were at the "starting line" --- lined up and he went for it -- he was so concentrated on his tach to know when to shift that he didn't look at the roads -- not knowing that the police put a barricade to stop people from racing. Basically we missed the barricade by less than 3 feet as I was able to yank the steering wheel at the very last minute.

Are you "All Show", "All Go", or both?
Neither of both -- hahaha! have been MIA for the past few years due to change in interests/priorities. Although being in "the scene" will always be a part of me. I think this is just a phase that im going through and will always come back to hunt me.
Any Shout outs?
-Sailu----oh wait, we were ignored for that shit. my bad.
-TQPI.NET --- underground racing community/forum back home that I was a part of. they introduced me to a lot of things automotive. I also met a vast number of good friends there that will always be a big part of my life.
-Gabe Chan - previous owner of the wrx!! he taught me all things I know regarding my car and all the help he gave me when I broke it. so to speak, I would have spent more than what I can afford if it wasn't for this guy!!
-of course, Focal Point Concepts ---- this guys will always be around whatever happens, may it be for cars, life or whatever else, you can count on each and everyone of them.
