New job welding/fabbing 5 minutes from my house. Finally get to practice TIG welding and hopefully get good at it. But for right now I'm a lowly MIG welder on second shift. But at least I'm all by myself so I can bust ass for the first half of my shift and make time to practice TIG'ing or do small projects. I need to source a steel intake manifold flange and maybe an exhaust flange. I'll see how hard it is to make a header from scratch.

Update in car world: going lower this weekend and hopefully getting my welded diff in. Need to get my car inspected on monday so I don't run the risk of getting pulled over when I go dicking around in the rain.

Koguchi kills it in every style. Kit, OEM, whatever. Wish he had an s13 with 15's so I could see how he'd pull it off. Oh well, I'm saving up my pennies for a 5-lug swap and for some schweet 17's. Still have to get my carbs finished up too. Need to source a steel intake flange so I can make my own manifold.

More of this will be in my future. Selling my wheels and mounting my tires on my stock teardrops that I will be polishing tomorrow. Will look sorta ghey but it will be worth it once new parts start rolling in. There is a laundry list of things I need to get this chassis buttoned up so hopefully someone buys my shitastic knockoff wheels and gives me the cashflow needed to make moves.

Gay temp agency got me all excited about a MIG welding job just to dick me around and say they ended up losing the contract. Ef this shit. Tomorrow I'm going anywhere and everywhere to try and find a job. Printing out stacks of resumes as I type this. I figure if I pass out 50 and half those don't go directly in the garbage then half of those are for places that are hiring and half of those are hiring for what I'm good at I might get 1 or 2 phone calls back. It's either that or get a job at Home Depot or some shit.
