Andrew Eck - 29
Lived in east valley for 5+ years
PIlot / Mechanical Engineer
BS Senior in Sustainability @ Arizona State - working on cyanobacteria/algae based fuels and aquaponics
Curently live in Tempe near ASU and Casey Moore's Bar
So ive been using this site for info for like 10 years. When I lived elsewhere in the country I had owned 5 LS400s. I only recently started posting (very recently). I currently have 4 SCs - 2 of which are being built, and the others are parts cars. I have sold many of the parts that I am not using from my parts cars - I no doubt have done business with some of you SC guys in the Valley. I sell on eBay and CraigsList, and after 30 posts I will start selling on here too.
My black '95 SC400 (first 2 pics) could be a daily driver (but I rarely drive it). It has just a few mods - 18" staggered black wheels, lowered on Supra struts and lowering springs, rolled fenders, HIDs, half-tinted taililghts, new leather interior, window tint, and I have fixed all the typical SC400 problems (Control arm bushings, timing belt, steering rack, etc) - CURENTLY FOR SALE
I have a r154 built tranny (Marlin Crawler) and a Tundra block 4.7L I am building for this car...
My other black '95 SC400 (4th pic) is curently waiting for a new engine - It has been setup for a 2jzgte which was removed and sold to a guy with a mk4 Supra earlier this year. I am setting this car up as a drift car - no interior, big LS front brakes, Driftmotion 1-piece aluminum driveshaft, KAAZ diff, battle/prothane bushings all around, and coilovers. I will be going 1jzgte this time, but I curently have no time to work on this car with finals coming up and all of my other car/business projects (daily RSX-S, 550rwhp Mr2 turbo, etc).

Yeah, we do. Keep an eye out for the KYOEI meet announcements.
I don't know the tuner crowd much anymore since my old IS is gone, but those of us in the VIP scene should be doing more and more meets. Especially as we get further modified. Either small groups of just us, or roll together into the pavilions or other car meets like last Saturday.
