Its the little things in life.

be sure to put some anti-seize on those tire caps! they're all aluminum, and the valve stems are all bronze/steel. dissimilar metals create galvanic corrosion, which murphies law dictates, they will seize, but only once one of the tires deflates enough that you can't fill it easily anymore.

i learned the hard way years ago, and had to cut all 4 of mine off with a dremel without damaging the valve stem.. it was a long saturday...

Repainted the wing, since it was getting scratched and chalky, then gave it a wash.

What did I do to my BRZ today? Well, I made the last payment on my 2018 BRZ tS. Yep! Five years old (just turned 22K) and paid for now. At the rock bottom interest rate, (cost to borrow was less than $500) I was better off keeping my money in the bank. How often does that happen?
As I’ve mentioned many times before, in March of 2017 I purchased an Inazuma, (Series Yellow) but was unable to take delivery. My employer at that time terminated me without cause and without notice the day before I would have driven it home. After a 1 1/2 year battle I won my law suit. As luck would have it I found then bought the tS in celebration!
The wife tells me I got the better car but I still lust after that Yellow car in my dreams.

Both look cool. But I think your wife is right, I’d take the tS out of those 2. There isn’t many tS’s around and they may be a future classic too.

Technically last night but hard wired my radar detector so I don't have that trashy coil cable running.


Don't worry, I know usefulness is somewhat subjective to location. I just like the idea of an early warning and K band is common in my area.

Trying to figure out lengths and turning some recessed areas for the clamps for my tray. 19 mm stainless steel. Not missing anymore sessions.

.....just hope I can remember how it all goes back together!

And here I thought you lost a 10mm socket.

Yeah, my luck I'll get it all back together only to discover my 10mm is missing!

Losing 10mm sockets is a meme in the US, presumably due to them being metric (vs. Freedom Units that one would expect in the US) and fairly common on cars, and small enough to easily get lost - https://tiremeetsroad.com/2019/05/24...them-so-often/

What kinda bike is that? Familiar with old skool BMX, never owned one, was too busy with road racers and mountain bikes...More recently started to think about Gravel bikes but my wife won't allow any type of bike as she sees them as dangerous..
