tweaked my neck watching the superbowl from a shite corner for 2 hours

Fuck me. Moved into our house yesterday,

Wild.

[Miroteknik]

damn, congrats dude

[SebastienPeek]

Thanks Miro, has been a wild ride but we finally have a bathroom and shit.

I might post some photos of the house on Flickr or something and share it here, but the garage situation, that's gonna be the fun part. Probably this weekend I'll spend some serious hours cleaning it and getting it ready for some wrenching.

There is an Autozone literally five minutes away too. So that's going to be very nice.

[SebastienPeek]

Absolutely, it has been way too long!

GET IN THE ZONE. This weekend, jack stands and deliciousness!

I've been thinking about harbor freight instead tbh, I just don't even know what's good anymore...

It's been forever since I wrenched properly, three plus years now I am pretty sure.

i only bought harbor freight because i'm still a budget-builder (if im being generous). so far im happy with the jack and stands, no issues yet.

as much as i prefer not working on cars (because it usually means something is broken, and I **** cars that break), working on the rx7 in my own garage has been pretty awesome. I was laying under it one day looking up into the engine, and the realization hit me, that this is exactly what i had been dreaming about for so many years. was pretty cool bro moment

[Miroteknik]

never going to consider myself a serious mechanic until i completely take an engine apart, put it back together again, and it runs smooth

[Miroteknik]

tfw internal combustion engines will be outlawed for electric/alternative propulsion by the time i get around to learning enough to rebuild a traditional internal combustion engine

born too early for flying cars
too late for 1-wire v8's

just in time to be a complete idiot

I hear that.

Oh man, I can't wait for that shit. Hopefully this weekend. Going to swap over the wheels on the 911 and clean it up, start driving it again. See if I can investigate the exhaust leak a bit more and then go from there.
