Figured I'd get a couple more now that speculators are starting to descend on Genny stuff.
 
Drove 200km to get this yesterday.
A Boot Spoiler for my imp.

Some rather expensive shorts made by a French company by the name of Salomon.
 
Since the Comply eartips that came with my Jaybird Freedoms just broke (a week after the 30 day warranty :banghead:) I had to get some new ones as I like the isolation they give. I know there's some Jaybird specific Comply tips but these has to be shipped from the US, and thus they'd end up costing me 100% extra to import, just because they're from the US, therefore I decided to go for the Comply TSX 200s instead, they should fit my Jaybirds, as the nozzle diameter is the same as the models on the Comply 200-series compatibility chart, fingers crossed at least. :lol: The TSXs also comes with the "WaxGaurd" so no more icky earphones. 👍

Which snow foam do you plan on using?
Just remember, snow foam lances are just the first step in car detailing.
Alot more and expensive steps follow.

I'm very well aware of this. Having recently gotten into a detailing job has finally allowed me to have the income to get a set of equipment for personal use.

The Cannon comes with a sample of the Snow Job foam but after I've gone through that I'll be moving onto Autobrite.

Look for a product called Mint Snowfoam i've used it a few times and it does a good job.
 
A Bolex SB 16mm film (as in cine) camera with a Kern Switar 17~85/3.5:

Kept an eye on 16mm cameras after seeing a few being used on shoots and being impressed with the results. Film is expensive but dat 16mm/actual film stock look is so evocative.

Speaking of film, I also bought tickets to see Dunkirk in 15/70mm IMAX for this Saturday. Can't wait, Interstellar was bloody amazing when I saw it there a few years back.
 
Pay day for me today so decided to splurge a little. Treated myself to a nice massage, followed by a trip to CEX to pick up a handful of PS2 Games., then on to a quick lunch at Maccies (6 piece mcnuggets, large 1/4 pounder with cheese meal, and an oreo mcflurry). Then a quick stop at Homebase to pick up a new set of shelves to store my games and movies on.

Nice little haul, although the cashier made a mistake and gave me Tony Hawks Pro Skater 4 instead of Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3, so I will have to return to CEX later this week to get that sorted out...

These shelves just about fit in my Mini :lol:

  • STi jacket, probably from the nineties. In a lovely, absolutely tasteless (but still epic) purple and yellow combo. Hell yeah.
 
I got an 8TB Seagate Backup Plus drive to backup my 12TB Proraid drive.

Happy little mistake there, THPS 4 was (alongside the first Underground) the peak of the Tony Hawk franchise.


Also thank you for reminding me to pick up THPS 3 for the PC.

@Mike Rotch I was just thinking the same thing. @F1GTR should do a video show and tell on YouTube with all his great kit.

I probably have enough different cameras for at least 10 episodes' worth of material. :lol:

Where to cop.

Seriously though that is great. You've got me furiously searching page after page on eBay for one.

Oh yeah. All are welcome! :p
 
Wanted to stay OEM, so I bought some parts from the local dealership. Luckily, I have a hookup in the parts department and got these at wholesale price. :D

New shocks, muffler, O2 sensor, and some new balljoints.

Can't wait to see a fresh new exhaust tip on my car. Almost depressing just looking at the original one that is all rusty and brown.

Tim McGraw was the first concert my wife and I went to after we started dating, dear lord, 19 years ago and I have a code through work that got $90 tickets for $25 so kind of hard to say no.
 
Found these at the thrift store! Had to pick 'em up.

  • Minolta X-370s with a 35-70mm f/3.5-4.6 zoom! Was only $5 so I couldn't say no - lens needs a clean but the camera is mint. Pairs up nicely with my X-300s :D
 
Finally got my first HW Skyline without paying so expensive. Only got this around $2 from an online store, thank goodness for discount.
