19"Axis Se7en wheels.

Got some used 19" Axis Se7en’s. They are gunmetal, with chrome caps. I’m thinking about getting the wheels repainted GGP to match the car. follow the jump for some initial pics.

GReddy Evo install

Because the actual install was so trivial, there aren’t any real instructions for it here, or pictures of anything you need to do. There are only 2 bolts at the front, 2 at the back, and 4 rubber hangers to unhook. then reverse the process to put the new exhaust on. pretty easy!

Momo boot, knob

This one was kindof tricky, actually. The momo boot actually screws onto the bottom of the knob. But the boot can’t turn, as it needs to be snapped into the console… And the knob can’t turn, because its basically screwed into the shifter…

K A B O O O M ! ! !

I got pegged by an escort today. I didn’t get a ticket at the scene, but the officer says i’ll probably get a “failure to yield” ticket. but i think it all depends on how long the escort’s skid marks are. he says he was going 25-30, i bet almost double that when he hit me. shrug

TRD Carbon Fiber Grill

Installed an authentic TRD carbon fiber “look” grill today. Details, pics after the jump

JDM Parts

Since all of these installs were so easy, its just going to be before/after pics!

PLP Short Shifter install

The newest mod to Hazy is the Pro Lex Performance “Second Generation” short shifter (PLP G2 is what everyone calls it). Wasn’t too complex of an install, pretty straightforward. It came with all the instructions you need, and you don’t need any special or unusual tools. Follow the jump for pics, details.

Painted Calipers!

So i decided to paint the calipers on hazy “porsche” red. I can’t afford a porsche, but i CAN afford to paint the calipers like porsche started doing a couple years ago.

Follow the jump to see all the progress and pics!

Sidemarkers

The first mod is done: installed clear sidemarkers.

And we begin!

bought the car! got lucky that the exact options i wanted were on a car that someone else just cancelled their order for. :D

DSL!

A little quicker update! The fun news now is that i got DSL! 1.5mbps SDSL! Its pretty damn sweet! Justin and I have been playing Unreal Tournament every night so far. My win2k machine has been set up as the server. Tons of fun! So if you have UT, look for a server with the name “Cool Guys Inc”, its usually running ~8pm CST. iknow, thats a little late for you central time zone people, but thats too bad!

Updates

Again, its been a while since i’ve updated this thing! since the last update:

Updates

Been a while! So what’s gone on lately?

  • Aino had a Baby! (July 10)
  • Rosetta went public! (Aug 3? Something like that)
  • The Family went to Finland to see Aino, to see Aino and Aleksi get married, and to meet the newest addition to the family, Elias! (Aug 30 - Sept 9)

Whew! thats a lot of stuff! If you want to see pics from finand, etc, they are all here: [Finland Pics](broken link!) It is a 5 meg zip file with tons of pictures in it. All of the pictures are half size, so if you want the full size ones, let me know. I’m going to be making a cd that has pics and movies on it, so let me know if you want one of those too! (i would have unzipped the file and just had the pictures on the site, but the unix machine that the stuff is on doesn’t have the ability to unzip zip files! eeek!

Memory stick walkman!

What’s new? Not a whole hell of a lot! I got a Memory Stick walkman, and i’m playing with that a lot (its pretty cool!) but other than that, no news is good news!
