Return of the Matt

Evenin' folks!

Hopefully a few long time luders will remember me from Ludebehaviour or from random chats at shows etc.
Nathan just told me about this forum, so figured I better sign up and say hi.
For those of you that dont know me yet or dont recognise my 'dull' username, Im the chap with the 4g BB4 with the 'afterburner/slightly corvette/no-it's-not-a-bleedin'-skyline' rear lights.

I have done all the servicing and maintenance on the car myself, pretty much figuring things out as go along and getting help from fellow luders when I get stuck! Also done all sorts of odd things to the bodywork over the years, I'm a lot more confident working on that side of things.
Ive always been into Hondas, and have owned various civics and crx's before I got the lude. I also have a sweet spot for vdubs, and have a 3BG Passat Highline as the daily drive - bit dull but comfy and 50mpg :D (yeah, Im getting old....)

Anyways, I havent been around much on the 'lude scene for a couple of years as I had a whole heap of sh1t going on, getting things sorted now though, and hopefully be able to spend some time on the car. Ive got plenty of projects that I had started and need to rekindle the enthusiasm to get on with it! ;)

Welcome in, Matt. :)

I had someone compliment my "Skyline" last week. It's a bone-stock 5G, and he was standing 5ft away. With all the badges clearly visible.

I have nothing else interesting to say so am going to get a beer :|

Hi Matt! LONG time no speak! Great to hear you still have the lude and nice to see you on the forums again. I had a break from it all for a few years too but I've got my enthusiasm back now, hopefully you can do the same :)
