I only hit my knee against the wheel when I'm taking a hit from the pipe :naughty:

I think it's the only reason I'm glad I have a slushbox h: x 100

cheapo lazy sunday suggestions:

grind rust with dremmel and re-apply white primer (my personal fav)

remove intake resonator and the bottom half of the air-box (sounds cool)

Hunt down previous owner's bad wiring and abandoned electronics components and remove them.

Summer only-- go to the empty parking lot at the mall with autocross notebook and air compressor in pursuit of a better setup

I do the same stuff. I like to always have my ish working right. I'll just start adjusting things when I don't have anything to do and don't have money to spend.
