Ignite

So this happened last night, it’s just the wrong time of the year to have to deal with car stuff. For all those who don’t know, that bright yellow sticker means i have 10 days to fix a few things on my car and take it for inspection.

I’ve been busy as hell over the past couple of weeks, works just been off the hook crazy at times and i’ve been busy with other projects outside of work. One of which is the car, the wheels turned up and so the suspension is now in the front, it definitely needs to go a little bit lower, but i’ll sort that out tomorrow when i do the back suspension and wheels.

So finally after many months of waiting my Work Emotion XT7’s turned up. 17×8 +32 is the size of choice and i’m probably going to run 215 R40 up front and 235 R45 in the back for tyres. Now to just get the tyres and get it all on.

Blogging for the sake of.. blogging.

Yeah so i’m bored, i’ve been messing about with the blog for the past few days, upgrading k2, upgrading the flickr plugin. This just results in all my customisations having to be coded back in.

Been working on the car a bit, interesting developments, may have to get a new turbo thanks to the first pic below.

Theres a new arrival in our, my brother picked up a new cat last weekend, pic below.

Finally got the intercooler back fixed. It looks ok, it’s just a pity i didn’t get it welded before attempting silicone.

Aaand today i stepped on my O2 Xda Atom and broke it’s screen

It’s my birthday today and well, normally that’d be awesome or at least mildly fun, but tonight i’m stuck at home SICK. This has happened before, it’s one of the downsides of having your birthday so close to the winter opening, but it can just make the birthday so miserable. Then again, thats probably a good thing im at home relaxing, now that i’ve put a quarter century on the clock.

I’m also looking to replace the suspension in the 180sx now, it’s gettin a bit long in the tooth and not starting to feel very solid, so it’s time to add something capable of keeping the body locked down and i’m gonna start that with some coil overs from ISC.
