TV at it's Best!!

Thought I better give a shout out to a great TV show. TOP GEAR is one of those shows for all of us gear heads out there that enjoy anything and everything car related. But it's not just that!! This show can even be great entertainment for those that aren't into fast, fun to drive vehicles. Jeremy, James, & Richard are some really funny blokes!! Re-runs can be found on BBC America, or you can download them in torrent form from www.finalgear.com POWER!!!!!!

The Look That Never Made It!

I was working on making my car have some "Euro" styling to it, and have decided to go back to my roots. The wheels look great, and the "Lip" on the wheels was pure hottness....but it just didn't allow me to drive like I enjoy driving. They are currently in the process of being sold, but I thought I'd post some pics of how it looked with the wheels.

New Website!!

I am also giving you my loyal followers, an insiders heads up about my new website. This site is going to be amazing and it will help all of you understand what you should be doing to enjoy better health. I am not releasing the details at the moment, but I have gone through the program, and have found out some things I should be doing to have better overall health. I'm going to do the program for a month, just so that I have personal experience with it before showing it to all of you. This is honestly something that is going to change my business, and help a lot of people understand how to have better health. Get ready, and excited!!

New Wheels!!

So I am not going to post any teaser pics of the new wheels. I'm just going to let you know that I will be running some new wheels by the weeks end. I am excited beyond belief with these wheels. They are very aggressive and the car is going to look completely different. Just thought I would give you all a heads up as to what is in the works at the moment.

Update: My car is still in the torn apart faze of life, but by this weekend I should have some of the Carbon Fiber pieces back from my guy. Then the installing and reassembling of the car begins. Just in time for our Mini Vacation in Vegas. Wish me luck on getting it all done in time.

Interior Update, and Deadening!!

So I thought I would post some interior pics of my MINI as it sits right now. I am currently having some things wrapped in carbon fiber, and since the car needed to be torn apart for that project, I decided to do some sound deadening. I can't stand rattles and this should cure a lot of them, and help make the interior a little more civilized. Not much, but enough for a long drive. I will post pics of the new interior when it is finished.

Mac Update!!

I absolutely am in love! I still work on my PC at work, but the mac is my toy at home for sure. Sorting photos was a piece of cake, and it is just fun. Not to mention the screen is HUGE! We got the 27" version and it is totally awesome. I will say that I do like certain things about both the PC and the Mac, so I will always have one of each. So there you have it, I like it...I mean love it, to all of those of you that thought it would never be!!

New Stripe!! New Attitude!!

Here is my new stripe. It follows along the same principle as my old stripe. Alternating colors for the body and roof, but this time I have added in a metallic grey that is consistent throughout the entire car. It is a more subtle stripe than the old one, but adds a whole new attitude to the car. Now I need to sell my white wheels, and get some new ones that I will have painted metallic grey in the middles, and have the lip done in white to tie it all together. It will look sick!!!!

I'm going to be a Mac Daddy!!

We have the 27" version on it's way. I know, I know I was the biggest anti-mac person around. But we are going to make the change and I am going to vow to learn all the in's and out's of the mac, before judging it. I will still have a PC at work and a laptop. I just feel like the Mac is going to give Christie more ability to do what she wants to on the computer instead of just what I want to do. Not to mention it has some cool stuff that I am looking forward to using. More updates on this at a later time too!!

New Mini Cooper S Parts Coming!!!

So what you are looking at here are the new pieces I've got coming to my home soon!! Up top I have the M7 Oil Catch can. This will help improve long term engine life, and also prevent oil from gooing up my intake tract. I mean, why would I want oil to start making it's way into my sweet aftermarket intercooler? Plus it will just look so sweet in my engine bay. The lower piece is a Turbo inlet pipe, that will replace my current silicone piece. The silicone piece can collapse under full throttle and then you are faced with mucho problemos! So this new hard piece should make that never happen, plus it is a bigger diameter throughout so it should flow more air!!
Both pieces will be in black, because I like the more stealthy look! I will post before and after pics of this project.
