Noah Salvato Intro
#1
It took a few months, but I finally got the verification code and can post now. 

My name's Noah, I grew up in Seattle, spent a few years helping my neighbor work rebuilding a '65 mjstang which first got me into cars. I've been out to Dirtfish a few times, but since moving to NoVA 2 years ago have moved away from rally. 

I've owned/co-owned a few cars, but am down to just one since school has started:
  • 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  • 2001 BMW 325i 
  • 1991 Nissan 240sx Hatch
  • 1992 Miata
  • 2009 Ford Mustang (Current)
Currently driving a 2009 Mustang... Yes, the 4.0. Yes, it's slow. It's on eibach lowering springs with 18" GT take off wheels. Running a K&N CAI, SLP Loudmouth Catback, and a Hurst short throw. Planning to move on to something else in the next year or so, just have to find the right car at the right price. Oh yeah, and I hit a deer on my way down to JMU so there's fat dent in the fender.

Hey Noah! Glad to see you make it on here!

If that pic of you making the donuts isn't on your own property, it might be best to take it off your post.

Welcome!

I think we can ease up on the paranoia about certain types of photos on this forum. There is no identifying items in that photo. It literally could have been anyone, anywhere. Maybe it was the end of an autocross in a closed lot. Maybe it was private property. Nothing to worry about.

I wasn't the driver in this pic but just to be safe I took it off. Good call.

Gotta figure the next car out soon, the old 4.slo is getting up there in miles and the big maintenance items are coming sooner than I'd like.

Figured I'd post a little bit of an update, will start a new thread with the current build as well.

I sold the mustang off around Christmas time and bought a 2012 Grand Cherokee on a deal I couldn't pass up. Looking to trade it for something more capable of towing (don't see the value in running wiring, installing hitch, and figuring out trans cooling on a base model v6).

Right after getting back from school, I picked up a 2002 BMW 325i which I will make a build thread about. Even though my wallet hurts again, it's great to have a new project.
