LOL.. I don't really get out to do much since I have a 15 month old son, so guess what I do in my spare time. I sit and read, A LOT.

Well I just got back from boston and I have to move into a new apartment. Hopefully I will get to work on the car late this week.

If anyone would be interested in trading their chuki bumper for my pig nose bumper and lip or If yours has a lip I could do some cash on top just let me know...

It's just not the direction I want to go with the car. I want the car to be smoother. The pig-nose looks good but it more of an old school feel. Its either chuki with a xenon/eastbear lip or version selects kouki copy.

Well I got to work on the car a little. I got to lower it on one side, re-install the catch can, and got a new piece for my intercooler piping.
On to the pictures...
You can see the left is lower than the right...

Dude I doubt it. lol. Yesterday I relly didnt get much done. But it was fun. It was nice to do something to the car that didn't NEED to be done but just because I wanted to. What do you mean about the NICO picture?

Well Today I soldered the power wire to the fuse box, installed the brake booster and master cylinder, and welded some piping up for the intercooler.
I don't have pictures because someone broke into my old apartment as I was moving out and stole my camera along with some other things. I guess it's just a reason to get me an olympus PEN even sooner.... :gapteeth:

Cell phone pics work fine.. That's all I use and it at least gives a LITTLE eye candy. Just got my droid today, so my pics are going to improve a LOT. Going from a 2.0 megapixel camera to a 5.0... It's a huge difference.

Bro, you know that you have full access to the D40 and the Cannon. Anyways, I can't wait to hear this thing start up again.
