Ahh indeed, well enjoy yourself-whats th haps on work/school/military you were talking about in past?

P.S. On another note- My involvement clearly spikes when I feel the season is approaching, otherwise this site reminds me of the cold stored HP and sadness in garage between the 2 vehicles-other than working on them I try to not even go in garage-Fukn heaters busted

besides the new clutch pedal (which I haven't received yet) and the underpanel (which I haven't received yet) my car is ready to go.

Got the injectors back from fullblown yesterday. They tested out fine, so back in they went along with some new plugs.

Ready to put another grand on the odometer

edit:
and if anyone cares, this year is my 10th year with my car. bought in 8/2004.
had a depressing laugh when I started it up yesterday after working on it. 22,869 miles... my cost per mile driven is probably on par with a lambo or ferrari

Not a fan of the hydro dipping carbon fiber look, always looks like fish scales. I think the 3m wrap looks better, but it's your car so enjoy.

If I could be a hermit in the winter, I would do it.

I think most of us wish that about ourselves.

Happy Valentine's everyone. I went out to a local restaurant for drinks and food. Nothing too crazy, but it was nice to get out with the missus.
