    Patio

    Promised wife once car was in garage, patio was next. We were looking into poured/stamped concrete, and not the standard 4 white rectangles kind, the decent looking stained, paverish, kind. Anyone have this done ? Recommendations ? Wanting it to have at least 2 partitions, a grilling/standing area, and decent sized sitting/eating area. Wouldn't be doing it till the weather warms up a bit, but I'm trying to figure out prices, timeframe, and whatnot.
  3. 44%, that's fucking significant. How was/is your driving record if you don't mind me asking. Not that it matters to me cause my insurance is cheap, but ya never know, could be cheaper.
  4. I turned the airbag off, and took my 4 yr old for a spin around town. I don't think I'd feel comfortable doing it very often, during busy hours, or too far a distance, or anywhere near hwy speeds. She is hilarious though, told me I needed to sell my "red car" (accord) and buy another "blue car".
  5. Awesome. I'll help. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k21/sol740/CG.jpg
  6. This. Fight till it's no-points/no-report and gladly pay the speed tax.
  7. A fwd drive converted, b16 swapped, f-body with lambo doors. Or maybe an old WRX.
  8. Sounds like you're fixing it up. Welcome.
  9. Like this one http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k21/sol740/IMAG0111-1.jpg

  11. I'm not sure. This is my first American car, let alone first LSx, so I can't say I know for sure. I'm reading LT headers, xpipe, cam, heads, tune, and clutch makes for big usable gains. So I think i'll likely start on that path. Of course now that I have my car, my wife wants a new patio, so I guess I'm house modding first.
  12. Definitely no where near that. At least not when I was paying attention. Sports cars tend to be the only vehicles I see without them. I put one on the Evo after I got harassed for the second time, though I dont think I will soil the vette with one regardless of harassment.
  13. I would actually really want this to occur. Thanks ! Are girlfriend's friends off-limits ? Haha ... it seems nicer than the Evo interior minus the seats and wheel.
  14. Grocery discounts help ... but you can only spend so much.

    RX8

    No want evo anymore ?
  16. Indeed. Though more often than not I'll be in the accord. My 300ZX's passenger door was brutalized by the dumbass that had been next to me, and I found it all mangled after a stressful day at work. Don't wish to repeat that day.
  17. Haha, I knew it was coming, answer to both is sooooon. I do quite a bit, especially this past summer in my accord, but I hope this eases my pain. Thanks everybody. My son loves his.
  18. So a month ago, I was showing my almost 2 yr old son pictures of toddler beds, and letting him "pick" one by screaming and pointing excitedly(he grunts and yells better than he speaks right now). He picked this one. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k21/sol740/IMAG0113.jpg I was still in the process of shopping/kicking tires/test drives/lowballing & counter-offering. Then I ended up with this today. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k21/sol740/IMAG0109.jpg Pics are meh, but I'll get better ones soon. Had to go to kentucky, seller was a cool guy, old enough I figured it wasn't beat to hell. Bone stock 03 Z06 with 26k, not counting skip-shift eliminator. First American auto and I am plenty pleased. Was happy to get it home. Insurance ... cheaper than the Evo by a good amount, plus I can stop coverage in the winter when the DD is in full-time duty. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k21/sol740/IMAG0118-1.jpg
  19. Allow me to make a suggestion. Try posting a couple pics of what you're working/going-to-be-working on and show us all what's going on with it. I can guarantee that 90% of this forum would see a pile of parts, tools, whats-its, and doo-dads lying around +rep you for that alone.
