Again, at the risk of sounding like a stalker, ms. pint is one of those people that looks way different in person than any picture I've seen posted.

She is way cuter than what you guys have seen here. I'm sure mr. JAR will confirm that.

That is true! I'm shy. Though the first cruise was a bit weird and I was really depressed then.

ok, so i had some time so ran some numbers with my DEDUCTED disposable income due to

.. anyway...

a few hundred bucks a month deduction is not going to make much of a difference.

with a slight tightening up in spending on misc items, there's only like a 5-6month shift within 2015 (if that) even if i buy everything i was planning to do the coming 3yrs.

so, i am happy again.

everything is back on the table.

Hrmm... I guess I wasn't paying much attention when I glanced through it. He doesn't give any links or specifications of the replacement LEDs?

You got more coming, though, right?

Hopefully, I'll be able to make my 8:00 am service appointment tomorrow to have all my wheel studs replaced from the botched brake install. Fingers crossed my new rims come out unscathed.

Mike the Powdercoater is working-up a set new Nismo rim decals - silver with a red "O" that I can't wait to install on the rims. Of course, pictures to follow.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hey there

Best wishes for a healthy and speedy recovery

And best of luck on the repairs. Hope you have a great weekend, too. It looks like I get to spend Saturday in the office instead of cruising with Ms. Pint

Glad to hear Mr. Kenchan

Transmission are rear differential fluid swaps are complete. I decided to leave the brake and clutch swaps for another time. I am going to do the power steering myself at home this weekend by just siphoning out most of the reservoir and refilling it with the new fluid. No major issues at all - piece of cake DIYs

I just hit 30K miles a few weeks ago and the transmission fluid was still more amber colored than black. It probably didn't need to be changed but it was more that I wanted to switch it to synthetic. The only note I have is buy more than 3 qts as I would have liked for it to overflow even though I know the level is fine after sticking my pinky finger in the fill hole to check. Driving with the new fluid is noticeably smoother but not significantly so. The differential fluid was dirty with lots of metal bits on the magnetic drain plug from the clutch wear - I will likely replace it again at 60K

This is the pump I got, but it was <$5 when I purchased it before Xmas Lubrimatic Fluid Quart Pump 4cc : Amazon.com : Automotive The screw top didn't fit the Redline bottles, but it wasn't a problem. I left it at my buddy's house since he'll probably make more use out of it. If I have to, I will just buy a new one 30K miles from now
