When will parents ever understand?...

[flushhhteen]

Hello to all fellow stancers,

Ive been a member for a little while now, but this is the first post for me..
I never really knew where to start and what to say,
but ill give it a go.

Im 18, currently residing in Wodonga, Victoria Australia, originally from Cobden Victoria Australia.
Im a full time TAFE student (broke ass) studying at Motorsports Training Australia.

Love what i do, took me a while to get into the whole stanced theme, was more into racing cars.. Now into my stanced street cars BIG TIME... its my obbsession.

Now..

The car.

Back in 2008 i brought a 1992 AE92 corolla hatchback for $1000.

At the time it had 230xxx kms on the clock..

It sat at my dads for ages until i moved to Wodonga to study.

He brought it up for me on a car trailer..

Thats when it started

I was still on my L plates at that time so it sat around alot, heaps of times for me to change things

The first pic was with one of the first "mods" (lol), which were Superlow King Spings.. about a 6-7cm drop.


Then the latest picture from about 1 month or so ago.


Coilovers should be here tomorrow or friday.. .

Ill have pics up soon.
As for rims.. I have a surprise for my "good" rims..

But i wanna get some cheaps rims just to get rid of the 165/75/13's -.-
Until then.. We'll see what happens...

Parents won't understand unless you persuade them.

Being a teenager, ive gotten down the persuation techniques fairly well, but i dont expect parents to accept or support, just understand that i do what i do because i love doing it.. not just because i can...

and welcome

Thanks guys !
Its going to be a slow build up, being a poor TAFE student..
But what i cant buy, i make...

dude yea parents do not get it! good luck with your build dude im sure its gonna turn out pretty sick. yesterday my mom moved my car and curbed my wheels, you can seriously never warn them enough. i mean what part about stretched tires do they not understand????? the wheels arent even a month old yet.......

[flushhhteen]

Thanks fella's
And yeah, my mums the same.
She's just happy im not pissing my money away like mates/people the same age.

Radiokilla: I hope the rims arnt too badly scratched .

I cringe everytime i get in the car with my parents, speedbumps, gutters, curbs...

But they never drive my car so thats ok .
