TAS Let me introduce myself (pic heavy)

[Tas_Legnum]

Hi guys. Thought I'd best chuck up a post to introduce my self and say hi.
So I've not long had myself a Leggy. Wanted one for years and one came up at the right moment so I grabbed it.
1998 PFL VR-4 in Pearl White. Only mod is a cat-back 3" exhaust with JASMA spec rear muffler.
Here it was the day I picked it up.

Here it is as of today.

And here are 2 of my previous cars.
1990 Toyota Cressida with 1JZGTE swap and JZX81 Mark II Front end swap.

I got bored with it so decided to sell it. 3 days later I picked up this.
1990 Toyota Celsior UCF11

I had it for a little over a year when the gearbox decided to let go on me (the day before my Birthday lol) So like any "normal" person instead of fixing it I got my Leggy lol.
Here's what the Cel looked like before it left Japan sometime around 06. Some genius wrecked the front bar and wheels a week after he bought it off the guy who imported it.

Cheers Wade

Great to see another Tassie member, and great to see someone on the forums from Devonport! My car's been off the road for about 8 months, but should be back on the road in a month or so. Might catch you around sometime.

Mine's only off the road for major service and mods. I miss driving it though I've only seen two other Galant's. Both Trigger Mauve. An older guy drives one of them, not sure who owns the other one. I don't think they're members on here, but I could be wrong?
There's nearly enough of us here in Tassie to get @TME_Steve to make a trip down to get tunes done!

Love the Celsior. Legnum ain't bad either

That would be John @Bourbonator. He was telling me about it. I need to do more to the car before I bother even thinking about a tune. But out of interest what is a tune worth?
