I had to make up for my heavy weight shift knob somehow.
It needs a bit of clean up still, but the scale says I’m down more than 1700grams. That’s more than 3 shift knobs! I’ve got a pile of…
AE86
This is my car. I’ve owned lots of cars, but this one especially is mine. It is nothing fantastic on a spec sheet, and that’s fine because it is to me a gigantic sum of experiences. This is the first clutch I kicked, the first bead I layed, the first vehicle to carry my wife. There are nicer AE86’s out there, but I don’t really care. For all that I’ve put into this thing over the years, I could own a good chunk of a house (that’s a little sad)… but I don’t really have regret.
Eventually, I’ll be a really old man and I’ll treasure it even more than I do now. I can’t imagine all the little transformations it will under go between now and then. There are no definite plans, but I’m sure much will happen.

I’ve said before, I hate the dinky plastic shift knobs that come on most cars. Many of you agree with me, and replace your shift knobs with big fat plastic shift knobs… I don’t really get it. A gear lever…
Don’t Be A Nice Guy

Play the odds. I advise you to buy my car next time I list it for sale. I’m an emo guy with an often grim look at the future. Three months ago I might have sold you my AE86…
Not Gone… Or Forgotten

The thought and one point was that I would be responsible and trade my boroi shakotan AE86 for something more practical. It’s been advertised for the past two months… but I’m finally pulling my ads. Maybe financial pressures will force…
My ハチロク For Sale
Wednesday, October 26th, 2011
Bascially this…
I work a lot. I change diapers at night. I don’t go to auto-x. I drive to work in an automatic purple girl mobile. I think about making it hard, but you can only do so much with…
Barrel of Speed

Surprises me how small a T50 is. The appearance of it is normally dominated by the easily removable bell housing and shifter section, and without it looks very small and easy. I’m totally ready to rip this thing open and…
Now What?

It’s fall. I missed the last weekend of driving by blowing a hard coolant line on a night run. I guess my soldering skills weren’t up to task, but I’m pretty confident that my ability to gob on JB-Weld is. …
