    Parked the MINI in the shop and popped the bonnet... stared at the engine bay to figure out where to stick the second OCC.... Stared vacantly some more at the engine bay...
    Chuck and Nathan showed up.... Had a general discussion of all things important to guy's.... They left after a few hours.... Stared at my engine bay some moar.... Scratched my head.... Closed the bonnet and left...:shocked:

    Stared at my car sitting on jack stands while my wheels are out for fresh powder coating.
    Then I installed my new to me BSH boost tap to complete my OCC project.

    Oh, I received a package of bits from Outmotoring.com. :)

    Got mine ready for the impending doom of yet another spring snowstorm slated to deliver anywhere from rain to 8" of heavy wet snow.

    Filled the gas tank.

    Drove over a long stretch of recently brined street applying a very nice salty spray pattern to the doors.

    Parked legally.

    Drove to the parts store. Bought some Mobile 1 0W40 & wiper blades. Parked in the garage. Watching the first snow flakes hit the ground outside my window. So darned tired of winter weather.

    Bought Castro Oil from Pepboys today - They have a special $27 for 5 quarts and frame filter. Average to be $5.10 each instead of $9.00. May go back and get some more tomorrow since the ads run till 4/7

    Don't try & use a Fram filter in your MINI. Best to stick with an oem filter.

    Technically yesterday but oh well. TCE performance 13.1"x1.1" Rotor upgrade with Wilwood FNSL4R calipers. So far me likey. but the stock BP-10 pads need to go and some yellowstuff will eventually make its way in there. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics
