People sometimes ask me why I don't wash my car more often. It's such a nice car and it's always dirty.
I didn't wash it for about 7 months then decided wtf. It was clean and purty then it rained a few days later. It looked like ass again.
So, I washed it again friday night. it fucking rained for 5 minutes on my side of town saturday afternoon. My car looks like ass again.

THAT is why I hate to wash my car. It's a never ending battle. I was gonna wash it again tonight, but I see 20% chance in the forecast for tonite and tomorrow. Thats 100% if I wash it. Maybe I'll to a twice yearly schedule, like 4/1 and 10/1. That way my car will be clean for like 6 days a year.
I haven't washed my truck in over 5 years.

Thats all I got.

one more thing

The bar is going well. We have our state liquor board hearing first week of June. After that we'll get the license and should be open by the end of June.
We'll have to have an East Side Tucson 86 meet once we're rolling.

Not just an East Side Tucson meet, but a full AZ86 meet to help you open! I'll drive down to see it.

Well crap. Wife lost her job and I posted the FR-S for sale. If I can sell that for what I owe, she won't have to go back to work. Let me know if you have anybody interested in a boosted FR-S.

I'll also consider selling the Sprintex kit and pulley, along with assisting with the install, and transfer of all EcuTek items, for $3000. It may make selling my car w/o FI a bit easier.

Goodnight, and farewell. A buddy from MT is buying the car and will fly out in the coming weeks to take her to the great north. I'll be glad to see how it progresses at the hands of a very mechanically competent owner.
For now, I need to run out the E85, swap on the 80mm pulley, and transition back to the low power 91 octane map. Perhaps we'll cross paths during this week. It was nice to meet everyone here.

I don't know what tires sizes are good for 20" wheels. Did that thing really come with 20's? those are huge, doesn't leave a lot of room for good rubber. If you actually want to do any real off roading, you want lots of sidewall. That way when you air down, your tires really mold around the rocks for better grip. My favorite tires for absolute grip are the Cooper STT mud terrain. They don't last long though. My favorite for mild offroad and street are the Yokohama Geolander AT II. Thats what I'm running now.
My LC came with 16's and I ran 285/75 for a long time on a 2" lift. Looked really good. Now I'm running 315/75 on 4" lift.

I hear ya. This is my wife's. It's a pavement pounder. It will rarely see off road. I've had 2 Chevy trucks in the past with 9" lifts and 39.5" Mickey thompsons's. I don't plan on doing any real off roading with this expensive of a vehicle. I'm just going for a more aggressive look
