also got my STD's. hope to get the wingtips later on this week.

i think that's about all i ordered so far. im still thinking about doing
koni yellows for my H-Sports, or just do some KW's. not sure yet.
the paint on the H-Sports have began to crack (which is pretty normal)
so starting to look kinda ikky.

 

my G under DUSTOP

 

hey, if anyone's interested in the one day old STD's check out the market place.

i installed it last night, but not driven.
i found that my car's already slightly mushroomed on the passenger side
so i do not want to force the strut bolts to over work itself. im just going
to drive the remainder of the car as-is without the STD's and hope for
the bestest.

the black paint on the bolt extenders/nuts/washers kinda flakes off
pretty easy.

 

Grow a pair and get out the 2x4 and whammer. Cake.

 

yah, im not going to be PDR'ing my towers, that will only weaken it imho.

metal will fatigue over time and im not about to fastforward that just
because some STD's didn't fit perfectly.

anyone want mine? i literally arrived yesterday, put it on, took it
off.

 

was checking out my G's new dustop from outside the garage
this morning and man, the cover looks goooood.

 

Looks like you have some kind of nice car in there.... instead of just a plain old Nissan.

 

I have a Griot's Evolution cover (looks like that one, except it has elastic around the bottom) and I think Clara looks cool when she's wearing it

 

lol yah, kinda like a loser in a MINI pretending to be cool like the kenchan.

 

nice! actually the Dustop has elastic on the bottom too.

mine's more like a dealer aftermarket dustcover... reminds me of the
one i had for my old prelude back in the days.

 

so im kinda back from my winter hibernation...

wont be as busy as last few seasons as far as car stuff
goes for me (due to me being in my music room almost
all day long ) but i will be doing some detailing
pretty soon.

i switched the snows to stockers on our new FitSW
and now running summer set on my G35C.

washed the FitSW over the weekend, my FitS is still
waiting repair work. but will be getting new
wheels/tires for it this week.

going to pull out my MCS this week (weather permitting).

 

Time to break out the Summer thread ??

 

Except for the forecast of snow.
I did get a little sunburned this weekend washing the cars though.

 

i turned my MCS's tires for the last time last night.
hope to motor in a few days. i haven't driven on
the new wheel and tire yet (the one that replaced my
scuffed up booboo BBS). was purchased over a month
ago.

 

pulled out my MCS on sat for some nice motoring.

going to clean my wheels later on this week.

 

LOL another cleaver idea from griot's.

 

so i *might* get a chance to pull out my G35C tomorrow
am before going easter egg hunting... i thought easter
wasnt for another 2 weeks? my kids are going
so i suppose i am too.

i rather go hunting for satsuma-imo (sweet potatoes)...

any car-related plans for you all this weekend?

 

Raining here. Fun drive for tomorrow cancelled. No detailing in the rain for me.

 

Man I feel like such a loser, I have but only one choice when it comes to cars and that's my MC. I thought making over 100k a year would allow me to afford more than one little ole MC. It most certainly sucks where I live, can't afford a house, therefore I cannot get a loan for a car so I guess in a year when I have saved over 30k I'll just buy one with cash that way the credit companies can make 10% of nothing instead of 10% of 30K!

 

I only have my MCS and am dang proud of it... I have immensely more fun with it than my coworkers have with their decked out 7 series battleships and monster car payments...

(but ken's G35 IS nice... )

 

Oh come on now, GotCurves... don't feed us that sad story. If I can make here in the DC/Baltimore metro area on that kind of money, you sure as hell can out there in the Southwest.

So sorry....




No sympathy for YOU !! Now get to the back of the line !

 

It's a'sposta snow tomorrow so I think I'm gonna bake all day and watch basketball or something. Maybe play some Wii. Not really sure yet!

 

Raining here right now, then supposed to turn to wet snow later this evening. No detailing for a couple of days here.

Mark

 

Rained hard overnight here. Supposed to rain even harder tonight and into tomorrow morning. Right now, there's a fine mist in the air.

So, no yard work this weekend, apparently.

I took the opportunity to pull Bergey (CR) and Dr Evil (JB) into the garage to clean the interiors. Just finished with Bergey. Started with a good vacuuming (love my garage, wall-mounted vac with a dozen cool attachments). Then I Nero'd everything that was vinyl or plastic. Then I added some Aerospace 303 to the dash. Then I used the Clarity on the inside of all the windows. Also too the cotton swabs and got the a/c vents and the tricky spots on the control panel.

Next, Dr Evil but since he has leather, have to break out the Nourish.

If it's still wet outside but not raining when I'm done, I'll pull them out of the garage and give the tile floor a good post-winter scrubbing.

 

Snowed 10" here on Thursday, roads melted yesterday and the rest is melting today. Got a Eurocar event tomorrow so I got to scrape the crust off the MINI to see if there is still red under there. Not summer yet.
