    Hi From New Zealand

    Hey everyone,

    I've been lurking around these forums since last year so thought it was about time that I started posting.

    I'm Scott from New Zealand. I own a 1993 Toyota Corolla SE Limited. I've owned it for just under 2-years so far and am very pleased with it's reliability and fuel consumption. It was bone stock when I first purchased it, but I've added my own little touches over the time I've had it, although it's still very much a work in progress. I've got some fibreglass sideskirts and a 2.25" exhaust system which are yet to be installed.


    You can view photos of my car in the thread I made earlier:

    See you around the forums :).

    I live in Auckland. Yeah that graffiti wall is awesome, it changes every 9-months or so. They paint it all and start again from scratch. Prevents mindless scribbles everywhere. No worries about the inspiration mate, I look forward to seeing your pics :).

    Here's a couple more of the wall and my car, I'll have to take some photos of the wall by it self someday (it stretches a lot further than you can see in the pics) -

    Here's one I took a little while ago of a bunch of graffiti in a bridge walkway (leading across the ocean on the underside of the bridge) across the other side of town. It stretched for about a 2km or so and every inch was covered from floor to ceiling in graffiti. Was quite a sight:

    I returned to the wall of graffiti today on the way home from the beach. They've changed the bombings a bit since I last went there.

    Here's some shots (I'll post them in my photography thread sometime too) -
