I stopped on the way home to look at an NB mx5 and it didn't excite me on the slightest. Am I broken? Will I feel different when my garage is useable rather than packed full of poo poo and inaccessible?
I owned a NA for a little more than a year, wasn't really a fan. Didn't enjoy driving it unless I was going too fast for the area/conditions and even driving with the top down lost it's charm pretty quick for me. That said driving it irresponsibly on the road was fairly fun and the few I've tracked have been pretty enjoyable.

Want another Porsche for the yard?

LS3 on the left, miata engine on the right:

I'm torn between big V8 for cheap and easy power or small possibly boosted engines. I think it depends a lot on what it's going in and how the weight difference is going to effect everything. I'd love to toss a LS in an E30 but the couple swaps I've driven weren't balanced with that much weight in front. The cars handle much better with a little four cylinder up front. IMO all engines are great, just find one suited to what you want...

Test drove a Factory Five 818. Tomorrow is the 348.
Going into it, it's Spyder > 818 > Evora. The Evora was nice and cheaper than the Spyder, but the 818's price proposition is insane.
If the 818 ends up being the top pick have the seller deal with the registration bull poo poo. If he's selling it as street legal that's a lot of poo poo to mess around with that I wouldn't want to deal with.


Trying to decide if I should just factory reset my phone (1st gen Moto G) since it's running slow and lovely or buy the newest version to get the expandable memory. If I reset I need to look into saving stuff from a few apps and some text message logs.

Track day on the bikes yesterday. First three sessions on the WR250 to relearn the track and get a feel for things. After lunch was the RS125gp and holy poo poo that little thing is amazing. Once youtube finishes uploading I'll toss a link in here.

Looks like it's now a full two weeks in CA coming up. Nice to travel and eat great food for free but at the same time timing on it really sucks this time.

Today I started work on my wheeled grinding stand inspired by project binky. So far it only has a bench grinder and one angle grinder. I need to buy some more angle grinders.

I also cleaned the mold off my ambulance which has now sat for 12 months since I started my efi swap. Like trees, car mold seemingly grows on the north facing sides, which in my case is only the front and passenger side

Yup. About two years ago they closed up on a Saturday afternoon, locked the doors and that was it. A fully stocked hardware store sat untouched.

The threader was the big score (around six grand new), but we also got a couple hundred dollars worth of copper pipe for 80 bucks. And the entire inventory of valves - sweat and threaded - gate, globe, ball ranging from 1/4" to 2". A few grand worth of valves for $200.

I run a small family hvac business and have never before been so giddy about buying tools and inventory.

Found the rev limiter in my wife's Kia Friday night. Partly on purpose, partly because pulling down to shift up is stupid. I'm pretty sure it auto shifted into second anyway.

I hate to see a shop go out of business but it's a great way to stock up on stuff. Guy we race with bought all their loose hardware and a bunch of other stuff that's really handy to have around.
