About Me:

When I was in High School I knew nothing about cars except that they can get me from point A to point B.  My Senior year was when it all started.  Since I didn’t know much about cars, I subscribed to tons of car magazines and started to learn from there.

I got my first car at the beginning of my sophmore year in college.  It was a 1995 Honda Civic coupe.  The awesome part was I got a car, the unfortunate part was that I’m a broke college student and we all know how expensive cars can get.  That’s when I started to learn more about working on cars so I can save money on labor.  It gives me a sense of accomplishment knowing that the mods were done by myself.  By the end of my Civic days, that car had pretty much everything done to it.  It had a body kit, sound system and even a motor swapped in, which I can proudly say was all done by myself.

My passion for cars started with the Civic but later moved onto the 350Z cause I always wanted to own a sports car and the Z fit the bill perfectly.  At first I didn’t want to do much mods to it except upgrading the sounds.  After a few months of owning the car, I found out about ChicagoZ from another forum and decided to sign up and see what it was all about.  For the first 2 years or so, I resisted and did practically nothing to the Z.  It all changed when I went to a ChicagoZ meet.  Seeing all the Zs pulled me right back to car modding.  I’ve also met a lot of a great friends through CZ which basically formed into Team Project X.  The Z is almost to a point where I’m done with the mods.  Then again, we all know that it never ends.

Got a few more parts for the car

Finally got some Sparco R505 seats and I’m loving the way it looks.  Check out my gallery for an updated pic of it.

I also have a set of Tein Basics that I will be picking up soon.  Just gotta figure out when I can put it in.

Tax time!!!

Turns out the new plenum and strut bar I got don’t work with the Vortech supercharger. Guess, I’m stuck with the stock plenum and spacer.

So now that it’s tax time, I’m trying to figure out what to buy with my tax return. I’m hoping to pick up a new set of Sparco seats or I may come across a nice set of wheels. I guess I will decide when the money is deposited into my account.

Hi everyone and welcome to my Team PX page.  Thanks for checking it out and I will keep you updated on the progress of my car.

At this moment, the car is in hibernation and it totally sucks.  I can’t wait to take it out again when spring time hits.
