What's on your Christmas list this year?
 
So it's that time of the year. Santa is stocking up his sleigh, checking lists twice, and trying to figure out who deserves a shiny new turbocharger. But he's missing a crucial piece of information, he needs to know what's on your Christmas lists so he can bring all you good Girls and Boys, new, shiny toys.

So what upgrades, accessories, or parts is everyone buying for themselves, hoping to get from others, or generally want for Christmas this year?

For myself i'm hoping Santa brings me the following:


There's just so many shiny things that I want, that I just hope I've been a good enough boy for Santa.

Isn't that the truth :(. Probably will only get the wheels/tires and shift knob at most to start off the build. But this time of year is great to buy parts since a lot of the stores are doing 5-20% off for black friday and what not.

For the final drive piece which looks like a cool upgrade to do, is it pretty easy to install one of those? Anything else you have to do/get to support it?

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. There is not a single thing I want or need that I don't just go out and get when I want or need it. Makes it tough to buy for me!

You don't have anything on that list you really want right now but are holding out due to good discipline? Something like a new set of racing seats or a bigger turbo?

C'mon, share what you really want!

I wanna ha, I wanna ha, I wanna ha, I wanna ha
I wanna really, really, really wanna zig a zig ah



No really if I wanted seats or a turbo I would already have seats or a turbo. Hell, our little $300 chest freezer died last week and I just spent today installing a new fridge, stove, microwave and dishwasher because to get a fridge with a bigger freezer instead of replacing the chest one we had to get stainless. Since everything else is white it wouldn't look right so...

My goodness, the classic signs of OCD...

Maybe therapy should be on your list?

:D

This has some sort of coating on it. It truly is stainless stainless. I made them prove it worked. It did. I was surprised. Was the only way we could get the fridge we anted. Apparently they don't make things in white anymore.

My microwave just died. I'm in the same boat. It was black, but that doesn't match my stainless fridge or stove. And while I am at it, granite counters would be sweet.

Happy wife, happy life.;)
