    I received my Triflo exhaust that I've been waiting to get since October 27th. Now I just have to polish it up and bolt it on!

    I also removed my windshield washer tank and hosing.
    Put some yellow Lamin-X on my dads new e39's foglights as well.

      What exactly did you do here? I obviously see that you're ignition wires aren't connected to the cap/rotor. Is this the "coil-on-plug" idea?

        no, it's wasted spark - kind of between COP and having a single coil/distributor. COP requires a cam sensor input and a lot more wires.

                      Since i dug it out of the snow two weekends ago I have driven it home (first time driving it since August), replaced the brake master, sold some parts, bought some snow tires and rims for the rochester winter, changed oil, and most important swapped body panels so that my car is finally one hue after being two colors for the last 5.5 years. :D

                        Painted inner wheel wells. Often overlooked when detailing but hightly recommended. Took about 10 years of the car!!! lol

                              Took the motor from my garage back to where i work on the car, ready to drop in. Front subframe on passenger side engine mount location has cracked (due to excess torque?), so I'm gonna make it straight and make reinforcement plates.

                              Changed the Shift rod seal.

                              Sat down in the e30 and felt like I belonged there, not in the driver seat of a tundra.....
