With the weather, I doubt it would've been worth it. I was JUST about to wash my car and then it started to pour, so I just cleaned my wheels

Love this car. Simply clean
Thank you =)

The guy never really sent them :( I'll have to text him.

Thought u were changing ur wheels?
My car wouldn't start that morning. So we had to deal with that. And it was a freaking monsoon when I got there.

Look who I saw today..

My camber looks so weird in this picture... I saw yours too! And I have a picture. I just can't post it right now.

Sooo my poor guy hasn't gotten any lovin with the holidays :???: But I have plans forthe beginning of next year: (I feel like I need to put this down in writing to organize my head and just vent)

-Buy new charge piping and get the turbo downpipe made, and get this turbo on finally. However, it turns out one of my piston rings is on it's way out.... :cry:
-Rear disc conversion
-ITR rear sway
-Wheels (Regas, Works, Mugens...)
-Takata harness
-Spoon lip
-Window visors
-PWJDM 3-point strut bar

I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting.... But I'm debating on starting on that list or just saving up for a daily. I'm not sure.

I'm just unhappy with where I'm at with this car. I want so much more for it.

Plans look nice. With all that your car will be at a very good point. A spoon lip would give your car a nice aggressive look. Are you going to keep it carbon fiber or you going to paint it?

I really want to paint it but part of me feels like that's committing sin. But I don't want the CF look on my car.

I say paint it. You can always sand it off and re clear/polish it later.

^^ I agree with this guy.

When you buy it it's yours, to do whatever you want with. :P f**k the haters.

Address this before you do anything. It sucks, but it will suck more when you shoot a piston through your head, or throw a rod from being bone dry on oil due to it burning so bad.

I know.... I just really don't want to re-ring.

it will be worth it
if its going out it needs to be done before it really messes something up.
I know.... I was an idiot not doing them before I put the motor in.

Exactly. If I lived closer, we'd make a day of it. Beer, pizza, tearing your block apart, and while we're at it, might as well do rods, rod pins, pistons, and block guard.
Hahaha that's probably what I'll end up doing. And I don't know about doing pistons and such... Did you not see my list? :lol: Plus I'm still thinking about building that other motor.

Well sounds like you need to make up your mind, then!
