Buttchin

So thanks to the great United States Postal Service, I won't have a running CRX until Monday afternoon. I seriously could of hitch-hiked to Louisiana by this point. Oh well there is a flip-side to every coin and the flip side is the Supra.

I eventually stopped being lazy and grabbed the crank my friends have been bugging me about for probably two months now. Took it to a machine shop and got it polished and cleaned for 30 American dollars. Well I'm happy that it turned out great, pissed because I dicked off about it for two goddamn months. Oh well. Anyway, I started to put the fenders back on because I'm just going to paint it as a whole with a real gun and some single-stage white paint (cheap as fuck). Also white hides flaws so that's also a plus. I'm going to make a paint booth next weekend and paint my car and my friends car in four days.

We will see how that goes over LOL.

Anyway plans for Saturday are as follows:
- Look at cool European cars
- Drift a BMW
- Gloat about it
- Sleep

That's about it, happy Friday and have a great weekend!

HOLY WOW

Okay so not a lot has been done in the way of the fun car in the backyard, and I've also managed to convince my CRX to stop running so that is something I like to call a FUCK YOU.

CRX needs new head bolts since I've reused those probably 40 times in the past 4 years so then engine has about 10psi compression on each cylinder. ARP's ordered and on the way.

Guy in Atlanta got the car shipped to him and I'll be able to pick up the crank Friday. I might skip the Euro Auto Festival this year in order to get the engine together or something together on that car so I can have it running by the 22nd.

GT5 2.0 update tomorrow. This week just started but it feels pretty massive already. All I really need to do is grab that muffler from my mate and get it welded on so I don't wake the dead when I fire it up and do a burnout in my backyard.


That's all for now ladies and gents!

Twist and shout

OK. I got fuck-all done this weekend with the awesome weather and the like. So that's minus points.

Also the guy with the crank probably won't be able to get that to me until the 22nd so that's a bunch of fat assholes.

School also sucks massive amounts of bleeding rat tails, have two papers due and like two tests this week along with some homework due so fuck me.

However if I can get the crank before then I can get my car running sooner so I can flog the shit out of it. I miss that. I end this post with a song.
