I'm in MI right now and it snowed big time... got me thinking about Christmas and such.Just kind of fun to hear what everyone might get for the holidays and what they have planned for their cars for the new year!Me.... turbo rebuild and finally change out those new lower ball joints I have laying in the back of the car (hard to change them when I'm in different state than the car). Then... oh yeah... install the Profec B and SAFC... then dyno time!

Look forward to hearing the plans (Mack, Underground, and any other shop... it would be cool to hear what your shops have planned for the new year... and if I were you if you have any holiday specials... plug them in here)!

A like-new stock turbo to replace my dying unit, hopefully getting an exhaust shop to mod an external WG dump into my O2 pipe, a good MBC, and perhaps some aluminum subframe collars and an ST rear sway.

well not directly for the RB, but a nice two stage craftsman compressor with some air tools. I did the whole swap with regular hand tools and it is time for some power.

I may be getting a 1929 model A ford, that I will swap in either a SR20DET or maybe RB26.
