    Sadly, staring at the: powder coated rear sub frame, poly bushings i made to raise it 12mm along with the spacers for the diff, extra diff cover with aluminum bushing, ss brake lines, RX-7 brakes, Stahl long tubes, coilover kits, oil filter relocation kit, semi finished euro elips with real bi xenon, urathane steering puck, maybe my roll cage and what ever else i was going to do.

    Found out yesterday i have the first surgery for my last proceedure on my wrist on the 29th of December. That means 4 months of one hand in a bandage and 2 surgeries in that time and everything getting put off until after the stitches and staples come out.

      Looks like you got a lot of work to do in the next 6 days.
      I get to install my smoked and cross haired elips I got from my secret Santa.

          I'm thinking about building a splitter for the race car. But I don't fully understand the aerodynamics behind it, so I want to read up a bunch on it before I start.

          Also I need to bolt a passenger seat in the passenger side of the race car for the school I'm going to. And source a seat belt.

              Weld my exhaust, install the phenolic spacer & Bosch gen3's on the M42. And possibly install a new diff bushing and E28 motor mounts.

              Insulate the attic, clean out my workroom in the basement & list all extra e30 parts(keep an eye on the FS forum) so I can get my HK(USP/P8/P30?) next month.

                        Roger that. It appears that they come as a unit, but I'll make sure.

                        Sure do appreciate it the assist!

                                Not much time for e30 work. I need to finish up a friend's e28 first. I am picking up a metal lathe next week though. Should be fun to relearn how to use it.
