Tech toys

Any idea what my next tech toy purchase should be? I was looking at the following:

Nextar - 43LT GPS
Gps with free lifetime rds detailed traffic info, but not in all areas.

A Cheap used xbox 360 for another media extender. Probably from craigslist or something.

HTC Touch pro 2 for sprint

Not really sure I need any of those though. Anyone else have any must have tech toys?

M3 updates

Anyone like installing alarms or remote starts? I'm part way there, but it's not quite right. Take a look at the pictures and let me know if you see the problem =)

Oh, incidentally, once again I can't drive it.

Someone reminded me I have a blog

I guess for update on M3 i FINALLY fixed the rubbing issue with the eastwood fender tool and rear bump stops. Car doesn't look much different than last pic but i can actually drive it now. I also fixed the sway bars. Front needed new end links, rear needed a new subframe....lots of work, but well worth it!

New Rimz Dawg


WOW I updated my blog!!!!!!


So now that it's nice out i finally put on the new rims for the M3. Good news is they look freaking awesome, bad news is that they rub the fender even sitting in the driveway. So at this point I backed it up the 20 feet into the garage and it sits awaiting some options. Perhaps raise it back up a little which may not be the preferred option, perhaps look into rolling the fenders some. Maybe a compromise. Either way the old rims have not yet been burnt up due to lack of suitable parking lots with no surveillance. I do still plan to remedy this at some point, but I'd like to drive the thing for a little while with the nice rims anyway.

HID lights w/ Angel eyes

Finally installed the new lights in the M3 today. There was in issue and i had it started earlier, but it works now. They definitely need to be adjusted because they shine super high, but that can be fixed. I tried to take some pictures, but they just looked like white light so i'll wait til daytime when it will be less trouble for the camera. Also gonna have to spark a rim soon as the new CSLs are in. The old rims got some tread though so they'll be good through winter i'm thinking.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Years. I just noticed I haven't posted an entry since Nov 22nd. That could mean I'm off doing things that are super exciting and I don't even have time to write about it. Or, that I'm really up to nothing at all and don't have anything interesting to write about. Who knows it could just be that I haven't gotten around to it though and interesting things happened that didn't get written about for no particular reason at all. You decide.
