Default Hello from Eastern PA

Hi all. I'm Justin. I have had my 01 Sierra C3 for about a year now. Not going real crazy with it (have that habit with everything I own), just been enjoying driving it.

Before that I had a 2wd 5/6 dropped longbed S10, then a 4x4 S10 lowered 5" all around with air in the rear.

Previous projects were an 87 longbed Sonoma, bagged and body dropped to the pinch welds, layed out on 19/20's. Had a 91 Eclipse GSX with ~450awhp and an 88 Fiero Formula with ~300whp (Grand Am GT 3.4L and custom turbo/intercooled setup).

My current Galant Vr4 is just north of 500awhp on pump gas tune, and not sure yet on the pump/meth tune. Super fun to drive, leather interior, still has A/C and all the creature comforts. It went 11.8@121 on a 1.7 60' on all season Continentals.

I Love bikes and ATV's. Raced ATV MX for about 5 years, trying to get back into it. I had a Zx6R Ninja, sold that for a Zx7R Ninja, redid that and then crashed it (throttle cable problem). Turned it into a streetfighter, then sold it for my current Supermoto.

Sorry for the long read, just going through the basics!. I've been lurking on here for a bit, but I'm trying to find some info and knowledge for future upgrades on the C3. Thanks all!

About halfway between Allentown and Philly. I wanted a Husky pretty bad, and got a decent hookup at my local dealer, but couldn't beat the maintenance/reliability of the DRZ/KLX.

Gotcha, was thinking maybe you were close to the river near me. The jap bikes def got it down on the reliability and maintenance. The husky is a street legal race bike and with that comes the insane 250 mile oil change interval....

Before you know you will have the bug to make your truck a beast.

I do get down to New Hope/Lambertville and the Newtown areas sometimes.

Thanks all for the warm invites!
