For those of you that care, I got the full head gasket set.

[Onimacus]

Ok, so I ordered a full head gasket set, and some NGK spark plugs. total is gonna be 140$, and will be in at 10am tomorrow.

My birthday is on the 14th, so my dad is buying this for me for my 21st birthday instead of the tools i asked him to buy me.

Just for the confidence factor I will update my progress here so you can all tell me how wonderful I am doing muhahaha.


Anyway, i am excited to finally start working on my car... its been garaged for almost two months.. let us hope that this is all I am going to need to do and I won't have the other problem I thought I might have...bent rods.... ew..

Thanks!

[travagliante]

um well no one cares....
hmmm who should
oh heck
"I care"

[TheSilentChamber]

Any time I get to feeling down, I got to sears and buy some tools and it cheers me right up.

[travagliante]

that works until you actually think about the reicept and how much money that costs...


haha

onimacus dont be depressed just go um to a junkyard and then youll relaize that your car still works and such!

i dunno nevermind me!@!!!!
i gotta go to bed
lol

My dad was supposed to get me tools for my birthday, but since i asked if they could help me out with this they are not going to get me any tools and just pay for this... i can't even afford In N Out right now.... i am -40$ hehe... just paid the bills and rent...

[Figori]

Well, look at it this way, at least they are helping with the parts. Does suck about the tools though. And I understand the $$ situation. I'm broke as a joke on a rope with my d15 head in the shop being re-worked.

[TheSilentChamber]

Fibori, you may be broke as a joke on a rope, but at least the rice you planted in your sig is growing.

[Onimacus]

lmao!...

[icE_x]

nicee

[Ezara]

uh...congrats and happy early birthday.

Are tools that expensive? I was thinking of getting some from sears cause my brother works there so i get a 20% discount. He said for one of the biggest sets its around 200 dollars.....

[turtlecrxsi]

Hope everything works out. Are you going to remove the whole head and put in the new head gasket?

[Onimacus]

200 dollars is a shit load of money when you live on your own my friend...

I dunno if i am gonna remove the head and do the whole thing or not yet... depends how hard it is... I will read a little on it and find out if i can do it or not

[Figori]

Watch out, it might start growing on yours!!!

BTW: The rice is supposed to look riced... I get bored at work everynow and again.

[TheSilentChamber]

$200 isnt going to get you much tools. I have around 5,000 in tools in my shop, but thats over kill for anyone that a professional. I do body work and some mechanic work. To get a good set where you can pretty much work on any part of the car you want is going to cost you about $400 if you buy craftsman. But if you watch around christmas time and join the craftsman club you can get really good discounts. I saved $100 off stuff other day though the craftsman club, and its free to join.

^^Yea man. Ive got about $3000 in Snap on tools (my own tools) and theres still a few things id love to get my hands on. $200 will get you a decent amount of wrenches and screwdrivers and stuff. Something the average weekend fixer would get by on.
