Hi all,

Thought it was time I introduced myself here since I've already been lurking around for quite a few weeks. It all started on my honeymoon where I spent some of my nights sitting in the hotel room looking up various car sites on the good ol' interweb, and being in Japan as our very first destination it didn't help very much with my car fetish! :p

During the four weeks of our honeymoon I began having thoughts of starting my own automotive parts business online seeing as I managed establish some decent contacts over years as a modified car enthusiast. I began looking for something a little bigger and more convenient to carry goods in other than my Supra, so I decided to look into the Toyota Caldina seeing as I already own a Toyota. However after much searching and comparing different JDM wagons I stumbled upon the Legnum in a 'Caldina vs Legnum' thread on ToyMods. Suprised with the amount of people that chose the Legnum over the Caldina on a Toyota orientated forum I did further rearch and came across this forum. Verdict is I decided that it was the car for me, not just because it fitted my criteria above but because I realised what a great car it was (y)

Unfortunately at this stage I'm yet to own one due to recent commitments but I do hope to take ownership of one soon. And now with a little more time on my hands I've decided to go with my business venture and begin bringing some parts in here and there. At this stage my main focus will be parts for the Supra but I hope to be bringing some valuable parts in for the Legnum & Galant VR4. I'm open to any suggestions you may have in terms od products and hopefully be more involved and associated with your community!

Thanks and Cheers,

Danny
 
Should head down on Wednesday to the Wash Meet Danny.

Good luck with your business adventure.
 
Well Danny, that's one hell of an introduction! Glad to have you here mate.

Like Scott suggested, you should come down to Wednesdays wash meet and say g'day. There will be a heap of really nice wagons for you to check out and fiddle with and we can talk about your business ambitions too.

Do you have any sort of web-shop set up yet or is it still early days?
 
Welcome Danny.

You made the right choice with the Legnum!
 
Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

Scottie, snickells, thanks for the wash meet invite. Not sure if I could come as I don't have a Legnum as yet? I figured this was something for Galant & Legnum owners only! :) However if you guys don't mind I'm happy to tag along in my Supra if that's OK with you all.

Currently don't have a web-shop setup as yet but I hope to have it in the works once I can get everything sorted.

Just received my first lot of stock which includes some brand new Mitsubishi OEM metal BOV's used on EVO VIII MR. Will have them up for sale shortly.
 
Anyone who enjoys their car can come to a washmeet. If you drive something daggy we'll only laugh at you a little bit lol

Seriously, come along. Bring the Supra, ride a pushbike, even a Holden Commodore :P, it doesn't matter :)
 
Agreed, great choice on choosing to seek out a legnum and its good to see another trader come on board.

Hope to see you and your supra tonight at the wash meet.:)
 
Thanks again guys, and apologies for not being able to make it to the car wash (even though the Supra REALLY needs one!), had something urgent come up so my plans changed.

Just for some kicks here's a few pictures of my Supra courtesy of fullboost.com.au:

Hey Danny, good to finall see you here!

We ain't the anti-social type at the meets and anyone can come down. Would love to see the monster of yours in the flesh too. Welcome aboard ;)
 
Hey Gavin,

Thanks mate, will definitely bring it to a meet sometime. Currently have it off the road as I'm fitting a new turbo and intake manifold to it. Hope to have all done soon.
