      Thanks dude, I do love me some tacos. Strangely enough, I haven't had Mexican since Farmington, NM. Had some awesome Ethiopian last night though.

      I'm stoked to see so many e30s and other cool old cars around. I seriously saw more e30s my first day here than exist in Richmond, VA. What's a good way to find out about car events and stuff happening around town?

          Look up "sfbay e30" on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1417...71460853706705

          We used to have a local E30 forum but that went down years ago.

                My mk4 2.0 2001 jetta is for sale. Pm if anyone needs a well maintained daily.

                      The sky is also blue.

                      Napa even in its hottest days is pretty much always better than almost any Vegas summer day. Hahah. Which summer usually last about 5-7 months here -.-

                          Not sure what the plan is yet. Depending on where Emerald lands her first gig we may. But that's not for at least another two years. Once she's done in two years she's gotta do clinicals some where, we may end up in Reno, Hawaii, or somewhere.

                          We wanna move to the pnw once were done in Vegas but nothing is set in stone and once she's done I've gotta figure out what I'm doing. The last thing I wanna do is end up living back at home so if we end up back in the bay or sac area we more than likely won't be in Napa, too pricey.

                            Why wait until she's done to figure out what you want to do?

                              Working two jobs, close to 70 hours a week, someone's gotta pay the bills! I can't afford school with either money or time at the moment. But I'm avidly looking for other career paths that allow me to teach myself or gain skills on the job. Applied for some local unions and associations of labor, unfortunately didn't get in. If I don't have a thing by the time she's out I'm gonna not work and just go to school.

                                So I have this really good condition and low mile oem 325i exhaust, full headers to muffler, that is just sitting. I do not want to sell it, just in case if I ever find a car that wont pass smog, I can slap this on and it'd be good to go. Instead of letting it sit and not get use I was thinking maybe I could rent it out to those who need a new system, but don't want to cough out the dough for it. You pickup, install, smog, remove, and return. Of course I can offer no guarantee, but I could offer it at a low price for the first one or two guys to show that it works.





                                Would anyone be interested in this?
