I'm going to replace the insanely dusty Textar brake pads with Akebono. The Textar pads with less than 200 miles will soon be for sale.

I liked your winter/snow pic so much I made it my background on a work monitor. I hope you don't mind.

Get that new cordless rachet in my stocking from the inlaws, then promptly take off the mufflers to weld a fister setup.

I was hoping to spend this month working on my 996, since I’m off work, but a family emergency(hospice for my father-in-law) and now a sick child will prevent me from getting much done for a while.
My plans were:
  1. HVAC Blend door repair
  2. Rear suspension install(all new control arms)
  3. lowering coilovers
  4. install bolt-in rollbar
  5. wash
  6. drive
  7. wash again
  8. drive some more
