I hit 250k on the way to work this morning on the old Maxima. It has no rocker panels and is held together with tape and zip ties but she still goes. Last fall I had to add a "fuel pump priming" pushbutton on the dashboard that forces the fuel pump relay on. I must have a leaky injector or pressure regulator that bleeds off pressure too fast so it wouldn't reliably start with the 2 second fuel pump prime like it was supposed to. I have a pressure gauge in the supply line and it drops to 0 immediately when the pump stops running. I am not so OCD about repairs on it as my BMW if you can't tell.
You need a new car. At some point your only keeping that thing running for the sake of saying that it's still running.

I bought a new car...
Sorry about the crappy pictures. Will update with better pictures when I'm not lazy.

Please kill those wheels with fire. Nice looking car otherwise! What's up with the F32(?) in the background?

Nice donk...
Haha, know anyone that wants to buy some 20's? Those will be the first to go. Gonna get some 19s, H&R springs, LED angel eyes, and paint the kidneys black. Should be good.

Thanks man. It will compliment the 1-series nicely. And it's an F30 335i. It was the dealership owner's car. Beautiful car.

Random little project that I thought I'd share. I refinished this old valve cover that I got from Jeff. Turned out pretty good.

Sold my e36 Vert to a gentlemen whom I believe is already a member here (Marc).
Used part of that money and bought a Kimber Custom II from another BMW guy, who should be joining up shortly.
Now the important stuff, what have I missed in the past XX months since I last posted?

did you get he kimber in two-tone? drool...
what have you missed this winter? not a whole lot. secret santa. even though snap said he was going to sell the e30, instead he bought more non-bmws and owns like 5 cars or something. young & sons salvage is in full boom. ice rally shenanigans hasn't started due to the weather, sadly.

Yes sir, 2 tone!
Snap never was a trustworthy man, I learned not to believe him..
I would love to do ice shenanigans, but I rhino my truck it's a bit heavy for it..
