Hopefully when I get to my parents I'll get my Black Skyline Xmod.
All I want for Christmas is a black Skyline, a black Skyline, a black Skyline.
Yay!

I got a 20 G iPod. And some other cool shit..

Money (whoo!), a Citizen Ecodrive Titanium (my arm is now indestructable ;))
And a bunch of books.

Can't complain.
The new iPods are pretty sweet, I bought one for my dad. The new interface is a ton better than the 3G's.

Oh, and Nick got me a sweet Toyota GT-1 model. Nick rocks!

I couldn't decided if you'd like it, or hate it (considering how much time will need to go into the model :p)

I got "The Office" series on DVD. The british comedy that so far is funnier than office space and there is tons of episodes to watch yet/

My roommate got me the Dj Shadow DVD with his music and dj'ing and stuff on it. Look s super cool.

tysonK 2004-12-26 02:36 PM

Sounds like everyone got some cool freakin gifts!

What a way to start the new year.

Probably my best present was, my daughter telling me it was her best Christmas ever.

Libila 2004-12-26 08:13 PM

I got a 1971 Super Beetle :D

Wow, that's a bold statement coming from a kid.

You must have really made everything great Debbie!

Just wait until she gets a shifter kart and you and her go racing the following season!

:twisted:

6-drawer rollaway tool chest,
IR pyrometer (fancy adjustable emissivity model),
Racheting metric wrench set,
Sears gift card,
and some other assorted crap. :D

I was checking out a set of those at sears...they're expensive, but I think worth having

AtomicLabMonkey 2004-12-27 09:06 AM

They're definitely worth having if you're disassembling/reassembling the upper shock mounts of a Bilstein-equipped sn95 Ford Mustang frequently. :lol:

I was curious as the what parts on a mustang use metric sizes...now I see.

AtomicLabMonkey 2004-12-27 09:46 AM

Actually almost every chassis, suspension & brake fastener on Fords are metric; apparently they switched from SAE in the late 70's. Powertrain fasteners, however, are still SAE... :roll: Quite annoying to have a mix of metric & SAE on the same car.

Harbor Freight has them fairly reasonable.

Harbor Freight has *nothing* at a resonable price, unless you intend to use it only one time. And even then, you may have to replace it, like I had to with my 19mm deep impact socket that cracked during *the 1st use*. :P

That's too bad. I have a torque wrench and scissors from Harbor Freight that are still working great 3 years later. I think it depends on what it is.

MattR 2004-12-27 10:36 AM

So did anyone get anything cool for their Subaru?,.. I forgot to mention, I have an Invidia turbo back and Injen Cold Air intake on the way for my car...a little present to myself.. :twisted:

Nick Koan 2004-12-27 10:36 AM

Eric's Harbor Freight breaker bar (which started its life as a torque wrench) seems to be working fine.

I have a little thing I'm adding to my stereo for aux input, but thats about it. Though, I may have a belated Christmas present for my suby, a brand new one :D
