passed aircare with freinds o2 sensor and his air filter. So I decided to go pick up a new o2 and airfilter. :fullofwin:

Oil change.

Did an oil change on the Eclipse and....

.... took off the panels on the bike to clean them up

Started cleaning up the period alloy front drums I got for Butternut, couldn't finish as my hands froze up :okay: (current on left before on right)

haven't heard her pur in a while, so i started her up

patiently waiting for warming temps :okay:

what are you cleaning it with?

On the outside; mostly just a dremel tool that has various attachments. On the inside I'm going to have to get some 2000 grit paper and take it slow (rust spot on the steel lining).

Same here. It started so slow too cause it's been sitting out in the cold. Decided to take it for a rip to the Ikea meet. Got her nicely charged up, heated up and fluids circulated.

Thursday looks like a good day for a wash. Then chuck it into the garage to fully dry ouy.

got my package from rockauto and put new spark plug wires...nice...

Jesse, just wondering how their shipping to Canada is. Did you get it shipped to your door? What carrier and how bad was brokerage? Value of item?

Thanks

rockauto ships to canada rather economically... i've never been hit with brokerage from them and ive ordered from 10 dollars to 400 dollars worth of parts.

also... broke down and decided to buy a OBDII to USB cable... after hours of fiddling with it in Windows 7, found out it works on XP the best.

But I am happy that I read my codes and luckily none of them were current codes, all stored codes. Cleared them and the CEL is off (for now) i hope.

Also being able to see your MPG as you drive (i know most new cars have this) is a pretty sweet feature

the shipping was about 25 or so which should include everything...overall still cheaper than places from within canada...ie my wires were 77 bux shipped while autopartsway woukdve been 100 shipped and that would depend too if they have 'shipping specials'...

you just have to check and make sure what you get comes from the same location (it'll tell you at the check out) or you'll be billed separate shipping, that's if your planning to purchase more than one item

USPS?

Plastidipped my front bush bar in near 0c degree weather, still came out nice. Win.

new stickers!

I believe so, although I prefer to ship to Point Roberts. I do live in Richmond though so its a much closer drive.

cleaned up the celica's trunk, replaced some rusty bolts for the license plate;
new spark plugs + antiseize lube on the gf's mr2 + first start up in over two months sitting in the garage, took one turn of the key! :D

pics? been thinking about doing the same ! :)

Finally put in the WeatherTech Digital Fit all weather mats today. Awesome fit and I can confidently say these are one of if not the best all weather mats I've ever purchased!

Doing work

Took advantage of the nice weather and washed it. Too lazy to wax :fuckthatshit:

Same here.

Hooked up to the laundry sink and washed the Civic and RX7.

I should wash mine.. but it's full of holes right now, too lazy to mask up. :fuckthatshit:

But I did continue paint prep. Took of more of the side trim, and removed almost all of the badges. The MR2 one between the reverse lights is staying, I'll just have it masked when it goes for paint. And man, the trim and lights on the front bumper were a total biatch to take off, I've never been scratched so much by a fender liner and splash guard.

The trim above the rear side vent requires me to take apart some of the interior to get at one nut holding it in from the inside, gonna wait for my dad to do that, since I have a terrible history of snapping and breaking interior trim :lawl: Also gotta remove all that adhesive later, oh joy.

Edit: Got one of the side vents off just now, man it was a pain. I'll do the other one tomorrow or something.

I paid off my car (2011 slk) in full!! Hmmm what should I buy next eh.
