SOOOOOOO

does anyone want to go to revitup today (and you can go tomorrow too if you want
)? i mean, who cares about the meet anyways, the chick has a gf. my car is currently inoperable and i'm signed up for 6pm. 2 hours to get here!

update on the radiator thing: the patch still leaked, so i said screw it and using just a pocketknife, removed the plug (took me two hours of having the knife slip/stripping the plug). mazda doesn't have a replacement on hand, so i'm currently waiting for some j.b. weld to cure and then i'll put the plug back in. talk about macgyver style

Axial flow is like 200 or 250, MS short shifter is rediculous (rip off)

unless you have another 3 grand to spend, rims tires and suspension are out of the question unless you like really cheap crap on your car that doesnt last and even then, thats another 1K atleast

or your like me and find decent second hand stuff
2K might get a good sound system if you do it yourself or know someone to do the work. To get it right, you need a cabinet, probably some dynomat, and replace all the speakers. Having a decent installer do a system won't get you anything as good as the Bose system that's stock for 2K.

Hold off on rims, good new rims and tires will cost $$$ or $$$$. Yokohama tires by themselves are $800 total (give or take). Check out tirerack.com for decent tires, they are mostly in the 200+ range per tire.

Tint is relatively inexpensive (don't know about clear bra pricing yet), and definitely helps in this heat.

I'm a bit lazy tonight. I will take lots of pics at the BBQ on Sunday. I have to get up early tomorrow and Coach a T-Ball Game. My son is playing in it. All my Saturdays are booked for the next few weeks.
