Would have asked this earlier, but my new custom leather shifter and ebrake boots didn't come in until yesterday because lolshipped from Poland.

New dual beam glass headlights. Haven't shipped yet. Can't wait to finally get them.
Bought springs and new lower control arms a few days ago. BMR was doing 15% off and free shipping, couldn't pass that up
>>14151821
My cousins got me a portable vacuum for cleaning my car and I bought a scratch less snow brush.
>>14151906
because it's designed as a rhd car and they're too lazy to move the hand brake
>>14151821
New shocks, struts, and springs.
It'll be getting a set of Pilot Super Sports and *maybe* new wheels come tax time. I went through the new set of PSSes I got in June in 4 1/2 months, kek.
>>14152470
It's a Legacy GT, and that's an OEM shift knob. STi is a division of Subaru like Nismo or TRD, not just a model. They sell Legacy and Forester STis in Japan too.
>>14152477
Yeah it is but it's getting sent out to local machine shop to get bead blasted so it's all good. Steam holes also have to get drilled in the heads. You can see where it's all pocked because the previous owner of them had them on a 406 without the steam holes
a garage!

New set of Bridgestone Blizzaks.
>>14153034
ae86 has that
its a ok compromise
>>14151821
I got myself a couple presents. Now I'll just need to get my present some presents next year.
>>14153052
Ghosn nissan?? And go take your no evidence having deflategate crap somewhere else. And whats wrong with plastidip??? Five bucks gives you a completely different look that protects your rims and that you can change. Also its easy to do, even a dumbass like you can do it. Also new tires so no skidding for me
Buddy got me some side feed rails for my STI. Car friends are best friends.

>average NA V6 driver
sounds about right, masshole
>>14153184
Kind of rice. Functions better than the stock lights too.
>>14153184
If i said that "ohmahgerd my car is so fast and looks the best" i could see that. No rice here. Its a daily not a race car
>>14153201
just what you need when you want to permanently blind oncoming drivers
>>14153228
>what is proper headlamp alignment
My current headlights are shit and I need better ones because I drive at night for work five days a week.
Also hard to blind people when everyone in the south drives SUVs, brotrucks, and donks. I'm the one that gets blinded.
A tank of gas.
$1.699 / gal. What whaaaat.
>>14153184
I don't see how replacing the shift boot and shitty rubber ebrake grommet with something much nicer is rice. The old ones were shit and needed to go. It's not purely cosmetic, they make the interior feel much comfier and the shifter feels slightly better now. Especially since it's a black boot with subtle blue stitching. Most sporty cars now have red stitching on everything. The shift knob isn't over the top either, just a plain black OEM knob. The old one was trashed from the previous owner. Looked like they scratched it all up with a razor blade.
It could be a LOT worse.
>>14151821
Alpine 4"x6" door speakers. They sound so much better than the old stock ones, it's great.
Lol this dumbass Hatsune Miku sticker for my Charger.

Simple, put car 10 metres from wall on a horizontal surface.
go from center bulb/projector horizontally to wall (with a laser) then those points minus 10cm.
turn lights on. horizontals should be in the points you just made. the angles should be apart just as far as your headlights are apart. That will roughly do.
To do it accurately you need more stuff and some understanding of how them legal thingymajig works and im to lazy to type this out.
>>14151821
In a way, a 76 Ford Courier and a 1965 Mustang.
I'll still technically be paying for them. But I'd still be giving the money whether or not I got them.
Ignition coil for my Civic.
Unfortunately this is only so I can drive it out of underground garage to the crusher.
Nothing yet, but hopefully these R34 seats tomorrow.
A crankshaft position sensor for my Niva, the factory installed one bit the dust after 55kkm.
Flu.
Sat in an unheated garage (down to -15°C) since 21st. I've just visited her and there was a puddle of coolant right below her nose. She was awakening sluggishly, definitely needs that power hug.
Set of new tyres (Bridgestone RE003s). Coming off a set of old budget Toyos, it's honestly the best purchase I've made for my car to date. $420 for the set four.
>tfw able to take a corner hard enough that my phone's display switches to landscape without losing traction
Nothing. I don't buy inanimate objects Christmas gifts. If I bought anything for my car during the month of December then it falls under vehicular maintenance, just like 8ts listed 8n my monthly budget.
>>14151821
a heater fan repair. shit was sooo dirty
A Kenwood DNX 5180 double din with bluetooth hands free and gps . Got it gently used and at a very nice price .
>>14157098
You sound like a real fun person
>>14152461
Those are actually some of the only good looking plastidipped wheels I've ever seen.
But just get black ones. Plastidip will start looking like shit pretty soon, especially on your wheels like that.
Got a used turbo for my 84 f250 diesel
>>14151821
a storage unit :(
Got a delrin shift knob for $20 from amazon
It's actually pretty well made and countersunk pretty far
Also won't get hot or cold
Its a little too light weight for my personal preference and makes the shifter feel very notchy but I live in Florida and and the stock mx5 knob gets too hot to touch
>>14152371
hi tyler
I got a vintage vanity mirror, a 5GAL Jerry Can and jerry can holder bracket.
one of these that I'm going to put on my truck's tailgate
>>14158187

>what is a road that isn't perfectly flat
I spent a good amount of time cleaning carbon off the valves and turbine when i found the back roads to be completely empty driving home christmas day night.
>>14151821
a christmas tree ;_;

>>14156051
that's pretty fucking depressing m8
why is she going to the crusher?
>>14160190
Got my miata a new shift boot and shift knob, finally sold the ugly ass Hurst t shifter. Just need to adjust the shift boot. Got my mom a new set of tires for her Odyssey.
On a side note, anyone want a Hurst t shifter?
>>14151821
A new owner.
>>14168861
lol, what the fuck is that thing. never seen such an ugly abomination in my life....goddamn. and you said "finally", i hope that was like, a few days man.
>>14168904
Well I meant "replaced" not sold lol. Nobody would pay money for one. It was horrible, but I've had it since August.
>>14168861
I have the same Hurst T bar in my car.
>>14168951
It belongs and looks good in your car. I assume it's an older American car, correct? But not on a fucking NA miata.
Insurance
Two Thrush "rattler" mufflers for my suburban to replace the generic turbo mufflers that are currently on it. I guess they're new as shit, the only video I found of them are from Thrush and summit shipped each one from a separate warehouse. We'll see how they sound tomorrow. It has a TBI 350, so the idle is really smooth. It's straight piped right now and sound like a ww2 tank lol
>>14168995
Also, some stainless shorty headers from TCBmotorsports on ebay. The people on the forums seem to like them. They were $120 or so, not much more than new manifolds.
>>14168962
Yeah, it's a 68 Oldsmobile. I like the grip of the T bars but they look a little funny on short shifters.
What knob did you end up getting to replace it?
>>14169009
Ended up getting a buddy club type a shift knob because I wanted something light, white, and simple.
A owner.
>>14151821
Primewells
Blower stopped working and the driver window has started acting up
So the only thing it might be getting is traded in
New radiator for the Ke30
Literally the only thing wrong with it, runs nice and cool on any day now
X pipe
Roush cat backs
Roush CAI
Jlt oil separator
Ford racing lowering x springs
Ford racing strut tower brace
Of course the roads turned to shit as soon as I installed everything.
>>14171727
get some rims those stock wheels look like ass
>>14171771
I know I'm just having a hell of a time deciding what to get. Was hoping to wait till spring but I'm not going to make it.
>>14171800
CE28n's would look fly on a mustang
mustang sizes would probably be like $4,500 tho
>>14171771
yeah fuck 5 spoke wheels they look like dog shit lmao
>>14151995
156?
>>14171822
They have some pretty bitchin wheels but I'm hoping to keep my budget more around 3k. Kind of like the velgen vmb8 but I'd like to find 19s rather than 20's
Used advant garde M220 wheels
Potenza re760 rubber
A blox racing neo chrome shift knob
Now I'm doing pads and rotors but that's really just maintenance...
>>14155935
cute
>>14172438
Could have gotten some Le Baron wheels for a hundred bucks and painted them black. Same thing.
>>14151851
Is that the inside of a barn? Looks nice...How much did it cost to build if it is one, else, nice garage in general.
>>14172438
Those wheels have absolutely no place on that car.
Hideous.
