You :doit: then.


Also, I don’t really NEED a daily. I don’t commute. So, a semi-practical fun car, that :tits: can drive + an SUV that’s a bit better at being an SUV would probably be the ideal combo, and checks the boxes of fun + practical without adding to the number of 4 wheeled things residing at the haus.
you have a good point.

I don't want a third car, mostly because I'd never have time to use it.
:word:

I won’t be doing anything until we get through taxes and layoffs. At that point I’ll have a bit better view of what’s coming down the pipe financially.

I would agree with this unless the third car is a pure sports car, like a particular Velveeta colored Miata...

Filter on a stick doe. They don't actually seal anything or grab more air. It won't make a difference but if I'm doing it I'm going to do it as close to "right" as possible
:dat:

the fully sealed carbon setups are :jimp: but super :waxer: and I cant justify that money spent.

Wheels are a good upgrade. I love my 18s. Forged is life now.

In the car too, or waiting for the JB4 upgrade?

I learnt it’s practically impossible to get to the lower connector from above on an R, so jacking up the front passenger side is the way to go.
