EW @ Q's comment.


What do you mean "get [your] brakes done?" If it's just changing out pads or anything like that, you can do that yourself. We have lots of capable members who are willing to help you out for a small "thank you," however.

For something as easy as brakes, though, it'd be a waste of time/gas/money to have anybody else do it for you, but that's just my opinion. Check out some of the DIY's on our forum. I think we have threads for both regular brakes and Brembo brakes, which should walk you through everything. If you don't feel comfortable with doing them, then feel free to shoot a PM over to the guys mentioned and maybe they can help you out.

I know right

It has been forever since I have seen you last and even longer since we have hung out!

I swear all this getting ready to move has left me feeling out of it... I havent been on here in so long nor have I really done anything "Fun" either, kind of sucks!

But when you get there give Tommy a call/text and we will meet you up

Finally Friday... Just gotta wait till I get off of work now.

What I did today..put together this mini pc for a friend of mines...I like the case, neat and compact looking...pretty small foot print. Only thing is it's a little difficult to tuck wires due to it's space. Just gotta install the OS now.

That's a good looking case, Q. One thing I noticed, though: for somebody who is "OCD," your wires are all over the place in the background (by the TV, consoles, etc). I'm a relatively neat person and wires are one of those things I try to manage, so I couldn't help but notice.

Do you live alone or do you have roommates?

That looks good Jason..I still need to paint mines apart and do it already.

@ 350Chris Some of the wires in the bg are from my street fighter joysticks still hooked up. The wires behind the tv...ya a bit messy, I normally have it neaten but it's a little tough back there. Once I get my HT going I'm going to clean it up.

P.S. I'm not that big of a neat/clean/ocd freak as u guys think, I'm clean enough but no slob. Now my room..is pretty much spotless though.

And I live with two siblings.
