Mine never really had many problems it started first kick with 175km under the clock.

33's are absolute win if you have a good one.

I hate regretting things, I normally avoid it. Even though I might hate the outcome of saying it (ie: fear of failing), I try to get it over with.

Take the example of the female. I was good friends with a lot of females, but this one was a long time friend from high school. She had dated a couple of my friends, and the longest one turned out pretty bad, she didn't leave him when she should have. Any way she did, I was there as a friend, it was all pretty cool. Much later, we started hanging out a lot more - going out of our way to see each other, hang out, do random stuff, which made me think that we might be able to take it somewhere. I indicated that I liked what was happening, and basically said my feelings to her were a little more than a friend. She turned around and said she wanted to stay friends, she didn't the possibility of losing me as that at any stage in the future.

Yeah, I was a bit pissed. But I found a GF a couple of months later and had plenty of fun there, so it was all good.

Same deal with my career. I've made a choice to finish up where I am, complete my tertiary studies, and head interstate to take up opportunities in the airline industry. As far as I'm concerned, you don't get far sitting back watching it happen, I try and make it all count.

Regrets...... where to strart, I'm 21 and I feel I have to many, yet at the same time I am completely happy with who I am now, and where I'm going.

At one point in my life I let drugs take over my mind without realising it, I look back on my caniving thoughts that I would have, and wish I had more self control. I think I needed that real kick in the face experience I had, and 1 year of mental torture to get me out of what could of been a life long issue with dabbling in drugs. I suffered paranoia, would struggle to have conversations with people without thinking there was an alterior motive going on around me, it would keep me up half the night, thinking about situations that didnt exist.
I'm proud of myself and my will power for pulling out of that lifestyle and dealing with my mental issues that came from it by myself.

I regret the way that I have used my parents over the years, I love them, and do plenty for them, but at the same time I feel I have taken advantage of there generousity and not shown enough respect to them. I hope that in the future I have the means to treat them as well as they deserve.

Theres part 1 of my confession, it all my sound pretty extreme, but I think I hold fairly high morals and opinions of the person I'm trying to shape myself to be.

I regret not being able to live

I regret going online taking up the Persona that is eastcoastdrifter and try and pretend to be someone else where as my reality is much worse

I regret not keeping rollarblading when i was 14 as I was sponsored at the time and just gave up because i wanted to smoke weed more........

I regret not being more sociable i regret being introverted.....i regret being bipolar


what a positive thread

[aaron_drift]

I regret smoking weed. 3 years later i finally woke up from that blazing smoke.

i regret..... meet a girl and get along very well, but never ask for date.

then she had to move back overseas.

i lost mai chance forever.

she was here for short time working. i should have get her phone number for back home.... I'm stupid for forgetting too.

i could have visit her on mai yearly korea trip.

anyways it is something i gotta live with.

so many others have sadder storys.

I should have alot of regrets, and i do i suppose, but if i hadn't done those certain things/females, i wouldn't be me. Like havin an 86 shell, left from over 50k worth of cars, but i wouldn't swap the 86 for back for those cars.

And I to, have gone through the whole female dilema, but now i have found a better girl, I realise how much of a bitch she was, i thought i loved her, was meant to marry in her families eyes, but at the end of it all, she was just a bitch, didnt realise that till 3 yrs later and I'm where i am now.

All you guys, that regret breaking up with the girl or not pursuing or over pursuing her, don't. Just take it as experience, and when you find that girl, it will make you appreciate just how special that new one is.

I too regret ever chuffin, fuckin hard shit to give up after a while.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (hatzo @ Jul 1 2008, 11:01 PM) </div>r33's and jzx100's are childs play, an experienced driver in an exotic is the only thing that really leaves me for dust.

(trying to chase an f430 and Gallardo se anyone?)

The 1.7 has the extra torque and power to keep up with the bigger boys. the 1.7 i.e. feels really flat though, gotta love the in your pants torque :teehee:

I don't intend for this to change with the ae86, the 1.5 consumes a bit of fuel but like 3 quaters that of the 1.7 and i had a few fuel leaks that i didnt fix for a while but did fix before i sold it! bought by a rally driver from NZ, payed for in cash, got exactly what i wanted for it i should be happy. :unsure:
