    Nice pistol! I had a Remington R1 for a little while. Great shooting pistol and super accurate.

    I bought this to help me quit cigarettes



    Going on day 3 now with no smokes. Down from a pack to a pack and a half a day. It seems to help.

    I wish I could trade my heart for an extra liver, just so I can drink more and care less.

      So I was at Wal-Mart looking for a movie to watch, found this:

          What a find! Did you pick it up off a Japanese auction site?

            Actually no, just from a guy on ebay. One of those sellers who is always rotating through various JDM collectibles. Technically the part about it coming from a dealership is third-party speculation, but both the seller and I agree that there isn't any other place that this really could have come from otherwise. I'd imagine it is period-correct considering the font of the ACCORD logo (it's either CA or CB, but close enough), and the slight staining on the edges suggest age. It's double sided, so if I had a garage with a high enough ceiling, I would hang it directly over the car.

              Retrofit head lamps for the C5.

              The stock headlights are dangerously terrible. This isn't even a case of aesthetics, it's an honest safety concern.

                I wish flip up lights were still legal for companies to make..

                I got a 268 cam for the dub, and beer.

                  Most people who own these cars can barely see, never mind drive at night!

                  Sweet ride, hope to have one some day. More than likely when I'm to old to drive at night.

                      Seeing that just reminded me of your rosewood coupe and I got mad about it again. It wasn't even my car, but it just infuriated me.

A widebody CRX was right out front! I couldn't not grab it. There was also the new NSX... but I already have one.

                        I picked that one up the other day. I had thought about it for awhile.

                        Also, apparently, there are 2 versions of the NSX. The prototype and the actual 2017. I didn't know it, but they are actually different molds. I also found a white and blue 1st gen NSX that I picked up a few weeks ago.

                        I still collect these (just got back into it about a year ago because I was bored) because they are cheap. And let's be honest, that is probably as close as I'll ever get to most of these cars!

                        Speaking of cars I will probably never own:



                        My fiancé bought me that for my birthday.

                          What scale is the 911? I've got a few Maisto 1:18s I've had for years (early Viper SRT-10, 996 C4S, and Z33 Nismo S-tune are kept on a book shelf in my room), and there are a few of my dream cars I want to get from a higher-end brand.

                            It's a 1:18.

                            I also have a Maisto 348TB, S2000 and BMW Z8. This one is a Welly. Not bad detail for the price, but definitely not one of the more detailed ones.

                            Autoart has a few that I will eventually pick up in 1:18 for my Honda collection, but those buggers are EXPENSIVE!

                              snagged an H22 FGK header for my upcoming swap dirt cheap on Craigslist.

                                Pikes Peak is this weekend and it's as good an excuse as any to put an end to blurry shots. I got one of Targus's cheaper tripods a while back, but the thing isn't stable at all, so I never got any use out of it. This "Professional" model is great. Rock solid at full height, and with the legs not tied together with horizontal brackets like the cheap model, I can perch it at stable angles on the side of the mountain or get it right near the ground.



                                *ED. And then I got the call that my axles came in. These should be the last of the critically important maintenance items the RSX needs... now, how much do I really need A/C, hmm? It's looking like I need a new compressor, and drier replacement is a bit of a must. Damn.
