Fuck osama bin laden!

Another big delay, but the addition of a new feature.

So I am going to review stoner metal, aka sludge metal. Here's my first one. I have not fully committed on a ratings system, yet. Perhaps x stoned hippies out of 5? I think this would be a reverse scale, where the least amount of stoned hippies would be the best. Who wants stoned hippies around?

My first album is the self-titled album by "Witch". It starts out marvelously, with the track Seer. this is an eight minute track, which sets the stage for the remainder of the album. The guitars are great, with good solos in each of the songs. Who says solos are only for thrash metal? Sure, they're not the ear splitting Dragonforce-esque solos, but musically just as appealing.

The album continues along, then hits a slow dirge in "Rip Van Winkle" (fittingly). This track sludges along, until the last 45 seconds, where it builds its pace until the end.

There's two tracks left, and I have to admit they fall off a bit. They are not bad tracks, just not as good.

Listening to this music makes me want to swill booze, and that is a good thing.

2 stoned hippies out of 5.

Skunk Porsche

I'm on the lookout. Shitty, 911, manual. I think it'll be fun.

so close to being finished...

All that is left, is to finishg spraying the kidney grills. Yesterday I did the lidatek mounting, and fender liner replacement. Pretty easy, save for running the wire for the lidatek. I had to do some creative zip tying.

I can't wait to drive it. Definitely later today.

oh, and I think there is a power steering leak. fuck!

Removing the airbag to a E36 m3?

It's a T-30 tamper proof torx bit. I've heard these called safety torx before, but either way, they are the ones with the hollow tip.

The bolts on the airbag are a total PITA to remove, too. They're captive, they don't fully remove even if they are loose.

Enjoy.

I have not updated this shit in forever!

Did I lose the urge? Who knows. Sorry about that.

My most recent happening is working on the M3. I started work on removing the blower motor, for replacement. I am following the DIY on Doug's Domain. I got through to removing the blower motor itself.

TIP: You have to remove the left side of the airbox, BEFORE removing the wiper motor assembly.


I can't wait to clean this whole area up. It's so disgusting. The whole engine bay is SICK. On the good side, my heater core seems to be in good shape.

Almost since I've had the car, whenever I engage the recirculation, or heater, a door slaps closed HARD. I'm hoping I can fix this while replacing the blower motor.

I'm also happy to be almost done R&R'ing the car. I really just need some help with the headliner, and shit will be done. Then I am going to drive like a jackass EVERYWHERE.

Tron out.
