So Winter's finally here.... what's everyone's projects been? Keepin' the garages warm?
Personally, I moved a few weeks ago. The new rental is supposed to have a new garage floor poured... no progress yet, but hopefully soon? Until then, can't tinker with the z... just dreaming of boost.

Last month I finished up yard work before the "real" cold started. For the first time in my life, I raked leaves with snow on them! A few weeks later I hauled a load of leaves and branches to the recycle center. I got the shed cleaned out and organized so I could start moving stuff out of the garage. The shed was built on a small hill which was the most level part of our back yard. In order to make the shed level, we used cement blocks to support the floor. On one corner the pillar of blocks are 5 high and they were sticking out about 1.5" further than the rest. I just wasn't happy about this, so I decided to raise the shed with a car jack and move the blocks back. It took several hours to complete the job, because the ground was frozen! Later I got some stuff moved out to the shed so my wife could park in the garage again. I haven't had time to work on the Z yet, plus the garage isn't heated. I've been using a small electric heater and after several hours it makes the garage bearable, so I'm planning to have more electric ran to the garage to accomodate a 220V heater. It would also be nice to have more electric outlets in the garage for welding and other electric tools.
$180 for fronts. Not sure on the rears. Got some work to do. Plan to have all done by march.
