Hi everyone!


Just wanted to introduce myself, Im Tommy! Been in the tuner scene for quite some time now an i think its about time i introduce myself on prime, and its nice to see some of my friends that are currently on here now as well



for now I Just wanted to post a bit of History of my DC5 :)




so a few years back i started off with my 1992 Honda Accord which was my "learners car" which I've learned pretty much what i needed to know about modifying cars, from basics of doing my oil change, changing brakes to Automatic to manual conversion and engine swaps with electrical work. A few years later i picked up my DC5 from a fellow CRSX member that was getting ready to be deployed to Afghanistan and the RSX was just a year old and the price was right :) picked her up and started modifying right away. with most of the rare goodies i could find for her (within reason) then soon after my grandfather passed away i picked up a DB7 just to get my mind off of things.

As years went by, I managed to pick up a few sponsors here and there such as


Toyo Tires
Sailun Tires
ChargeSpeed USA
Optima


So I was pretty much more into the "show scene"

The reason why the part out?

I picked up my NSX

after been in the "Scene" for a while you make a friend or 2.. or maybe a few, since i had a portfolio started from my RSX... the ball just started rolling.

mind you that its not quite how it seems to be with the obligations that must be fulfilled when being sponsored.. although it did help me build my car a tad bit quicker then planned :)
