Autobots.....transform.....

I just can't help myself to a Voyager Class Ironhide.....

A Leader Class Ironhide would be an overkill.....

Ultimately I'm looking at a Leader Class Megatron, wanna be someone sinister.....

Back in 2011.....

It all began with this.....

Mount of shrimps.....

Citizens of my tank.....

Once a minority where even my Otto outnumbered them; the days have come for them to rule.....

They are by the hundreds and even the darkest pits of the Eiheims are their domain.....

Height adjustables? No it's telescopic.....

I was referring to the steering column I had in my car.....

Previous adjustment to increase or decrease the height was always met with frustration.....

But today somehow I just tried pulling it out and alas.....the column is a telescopic unit.....

Maybe most of you have already know about it but to me it's a new finding.....

Before extension.....

After extension.....Notice the turbo timer is much more visible now.....

A good thing came out of this.....there is no need to change the steering wheel boss kits.....

A case of a leaking boot.....

Well, it may seemed like my ride has some needs where lots of parts are in need of replacement.....

Blame it on the previous owner or anything for that matter, but that's the rule with pre-owned cars.....

These are part and parcel of owning them.....

Steering rack boot was leaking and another ER33 rack were sourced and replaced.....

Bye Bye RB20DET Gearbox.....

The time has finally come to bid the RB20DET gearbox farewell.....

While it was definitely fun having the acceleration advantages, it was frustrating at the same time when trying to engage other gears or having to bear with the funny vibrations in 5th gear.....

So welcome to the family; RB25DET gearbox.....


Notice how the RB25 unit at the bottom has much bigger housing compared to the RB20 unit on top.....
