The only solution here is to get a new house with bigger garage.

 

LOL...or lose a wife

 

That's what I learned from J, marry the smart ones

 

LMAO...
indeed sir!

 

That's when you stand up and say "listen B, I'm the man of this house hold! ...and I'll do exactly as you tell me to. "

 

Nailed it

 

I always tell my wife that our dog is under the false assumption that I'm the one in charge.

 

Mounts in yet?

 

Don't fuck with B ... She'll cut a bitch

 

Just had my 3 year wedding anniversary on the weekend... and I was reminded who actually wears the pants in the relationship. For the record- it isn't me.

 

Not yet, I'm thinking this Sunday will be the day.

 

 

stating the obvious

 

Coming up on 20 years for me in April.

 

Damn, congrats. That's great.

I'm going to ask my GF to marry me this year.

You know what the hardest part is? Getting a hold of her dad for that "talk" (I think he knows it's coming).

The dude is a magician! Maybe he's eluding me on purpose.

 

Shiet, he should be begging you, you're a catch!
I can tell by how well you take care of your mother and her car that you're very good to your girlfriend.

My FIL sucks at keeping secrets...so I literally called and asked him for her hand in marriage from Little Coronado beach at Sunset right AFTER asking her and having our moment...

 

Thanks man, I try

And ... that's hilarious! That same idea has played in my head a few times, I'm tired of waiting

 

"sir,
your daughter got that good good. mind if i dip in that honey pot for life, or naw?"

 

Good luck bro. Hope you're saving up for the massive waste of money that is a nice wedding.

 

If you think about it, the S4 really is a great pre-wedding purchase.

T will be prepared for the significant and unexpected expenses, receiving congratulations from some friends and "WTF are you doing" reactions from other friends.


I am just kidding. Congrats in advance!

 

Lol well said Aman.
Just put the wedding donations into a CEL fund.

 

 

Surprisingly, no CEL yet! Still leaks quite a bit of oil (drop a day on the garage floor), but hasn't left me stranded and boost is always there.

I'm preparing myself for major services coming up, I should be tearing into the ETH FO in the next month.

Stay tuned

 

Total thread derail, but yeah, it is true.

We set our budget at 10k for the wedding, but in all, I think we paid around 12.5k. As soon as anyone hears you're looking for something for a wedding, prices jump by 50%. It's ridiculous.

It blows my mind when indian or Asian families spend 100k+ on a wedding... to party for a few days. I'd rather just get married at the courthouse for $50, and pocket the rest Everyone needs to one up each other though.

 

It's a feature. Never have to change the oil, just add more!

Yeah, we spent ~$20k and it felt terrible doing so. Funny part is we didn't really splurge on anything and it was still that much.

 

You know what would fix that oil leak?

The under tray.

 

Bingo. Bolt that ish back on.

 

just put JB weld over the leak.

 

Bolt it on, then run a small pump with a tube into your oil cap. Fixed.

 

run a catch can under the car :schrug:

 

I've been doing a lot of reading on not only fixing common oil leaks, but also the timing belt / thermostat / water pump service.

I the internet.


This guy's videos are very thorough; tells you what tools you need, what torque specs, everything. I found a online vendor that will rent you every special tool needed for $50 (except for torx bits)

I'm excited to give it a shot since I can take my time and have no pressure on time constraints.

 

Famous last words. three weeks later an ad appears on AZ:

"owdi eth fo for sale. Needs to be reassembled. No idea where 1/2 the parts go."

 

I'm prepping hard! Don't you worry

 

Also, OEM wheel update.

I took a chance on buying wheels that were plastidipped ... and it did not end as well as I had hoped.

There's black spray paint underneath the plastidip, so after removing the spray paint it revealed that the OEM wheel finish is in rough shape ... this gives me no real option other than refinishing them myself.

Anybody have a suggestion on wheel color other than silver? Photoshop gurus are welcomed!





Maybe Bronze would look sexeh?

 

Blue plus bronze.


Much STI. So subi...

 

No bronze on Owdi, that's a Subie thing so let them have it. Lighter gunmetal might look nice.

 

I think a color like these would look good!

 

that would be blue plus GOLD, ya dummy!

 

That Miata color gave away why the Jizzmo color scheme popped for you!

 

same shit..
