Roll Call! - Who's Reading?

It's occurred to me today from finding my stats on blogger that more people read this than I thought. I don't get a large amount of comments on here, but I always love to hear from new people.

So with that in mind I'd LOVE to hear from as many people that read my blog as i can!

Definitely keen to hear what car you drive, where you're from, where your local mountain is, whether you have a blog... Whatever you wanna list guys!
Especially keen to see some links and pics as well :)

Spread the word, and hopefully I can hear from quite alot of new people!!

Cheers

- Grant

  1. First lol!

    High Grant.. Name's Edgar from Indonesia and i drive a Daihatsu Charmant. You can say Charmant is your AE71's cousin. Suspension-wise it's pretty identical to AE86 SR5. Guess Toyota fooled around and got Daihatsu knocked with its bastard son.

    Finished swapping smallport 4AGE, now i am focusing on upgrading the brakes with RX7 calipers and short stroking the struts. Custom rose-jointed links are coming also.

    I do have a blog for this build on charmant4age.blogspot.com .. Do visit when you have the time!

  14. Hey guys, Thanks Azrain, Dave and John!

    Also guys, feel free to add me on facebook. Only thing i ask is maybe send me a message letting me know who you are, cause i quite regularly (and frustratingly) have been getting complete randoms.

    Quite happy to add someone ive never met, but i quite often ignore people that i can see no ties to or can't see any information about them. Cheers!

  22. Costa Mesa, CA, US. 1993 Miata, 1971 Datsun on blocks in the garage. I found your blog because I was looking at a 1983 Corolla sedan on Craigslist and did some research to see what a well built one would look like. You guys have it so much better when it comes to vehicle emissions laws
