IheartMYSOL quick update 5



Picked up some new shoes for the little girl. At a decent price these shall do well for the time being till I get some real money and can take care of the rest of the car.. but they will work for the shows comin up and just an all around look with the car.
As for her status she is still in the shop. I'm hoping it's either this weekend or next. I really need it to be soon. Seriously...
I have plans for two Cali runs in the next two months.. Blog post and other news to go with it..

IheartMYSOL quick update 4


Well today was a sad, exciting, good, bad.. I dono a very mixed emotions day..
As you can tell by the picture, she finally went into a shop to have her turned over and also looked over on a professional level.
I'll give it up to myself real quick and say I went far and did alot for a first time swapper by myself going from B to K. Learned alot along the way still have alot to learn as I grow older. But in the end I just want to drive her..

ETA? probably your first and only question.

The shop (AKA Hondoctors) doesn't want to speculate yet..
I mean to look at the wiring harness make sure that is all correct
clutch and brake line bleeds and make sure there correct and safety inspection for Nevada
Fuel line inspection make sure there correct and bleed in
Priming the engine and the radiator
and drill the holes for the right side mount..
I think thats it..
After that I'm takin them the exhaust to be put on.

I'm saying probably two weeks. Just because there own flow of cars and probable frustration with her. I'll know more when they probably get to take a good look at her.. I won't really go back to the shop till Alicia and I, or I find some random person, to take me there.. Saturday maybe?

On a serious note I have a sol bug right now on buying things for the car..
My spark plug cover came in today.. Good pick up for 20. Only one little flaw.
My mani cover should be in route. The tracking number isn't comin up though so I need to re write the guy..
And then I ordered this today..

iheartMYSOL Part 4




Well it has been over a month since I updated or said anything on this blog thing.
Even though you have not seen or heard a lot has gone down actually.
Custom brake lines done. Currently trying to patch up some of th leaks I only really spotted two but one looked like it was the valve itself which is scary in its self because that would have to be replaced
Feul is done costom lines were run as well. I still want to finish the loop but need to order one more part. Probably should do that today
The custom clutch line came in and put on. Only bitch is that I'm having a hard time getting it to bleed
My radiator from K-tuned came in and that is in there plus it is wired up as well.
Other small parts like intake (K-tuned) and throttle cable came in and have been added to the engine bay. Bolts from TheRev also came in which help me complete the front and rear with the correct harwear rather then being hella ghetto.

Now that your all caught up on what has happendnd and what is kinda going down. Here is what is supposed to happen real soon
I have made an appointment for the next week for the car to go into a local shop. April 30 begins the weeked of Vegas Invation, yearly del sol meet in Las Vegas), then May 16th
I already again have things in the mail for parts and I still need to order some more my stubberness and wanting certain parts still gets in my way but hey she is my baby girl.
But before I kill you with the longest blog post I have ever done. Here are the preview pictures.

Year in Review

So as it comes down to this being the last year of the decade and what not, last day of the year. To think back at the this year alone is enough to make you go crazy. This year has been probably one of the most interesting in my life. Going off to basic in January, and then to tech school in March to learn about Liquid Fuels Maintenance. All of this was contained in that big ass state in Texas. Bringin my total time spent there to like 6 months. How weather and settings change in Texas. The people are a weird cleptic group on nice, but they "believe that they are there own nation." All in all Texas is its own beast that I WILL NOT miss all that much. I got to come home for a week in the middle of August to see my grandpa before he past. While I do believe his soul had already left it was good to see him and make my mom laugh during the tough time. It was also good to be able to help her threw the letting process as myself and my brothers endured with our father. I believe the perspective that we had helped her a lot. I missed the funeral, but I know he isn't mad at me for that one. I felt good when I saw him a man who really lived his life, did so many things, and experience more in this world then most people ever get. With the allsimers or the parkisans I happy to know the ending pain was gone. I now reside in Las Vegas, on Nellis AFB, talk about a draw when it comes to bases. Close to home home but far enough away to create and build myself. A city that never sleeps with amazing night life and bars. The temptations of a goddess. But I wouldn't change for the world. Well maybe Travis AFB. The car is still not running but is now finally being worked on as parts come in. Soon enough and she will be running. Other then that life is becoming a routine of work mixed with xbox and minor playtime. Hopefully I can expand my knowledge of the Vegas
