    just bought a set of these badboys at an attempt to give my merc the "newerish" C class look. Started to grow bored of the old style headlights, so I thought I'd let her have a bit more of a modern appearance. Can't wait till they get here so I can post pics of the result. btw I chose to go with the 8000K Ice Blues.

    I pick up rocks. Weights are for wusses. I actually used to go to a gym for free, but now I mostly get my exercise by landscaping, so basically lifting rocks.

    The last time my engine was apart when It was built in 1997 at the Toyota factory, we have worked out since Ive had it in the race car it has been revving at over 8000rpm for 16hrs, so the poor little girl is ready for some loving...... The rods and postons were cheap really 1450 delivered and the TRD gasket 150 off ebay

    That's the only thing that saves the cafeteria food at my university. Besides, the kitchens are all shared. People leave it in a mess and it sucks to half clean up after them while cooking.

    You make me want to pull my motor and rebuild it.
