I hear you, Hybrid. That warm snap the other week felt like March. But true spring is still 6 or 8 weeks away; hope its not a rainy one.
My wife is out of town this week, so I usually don't sleep as well when I have the house to myself. Last night, I found myself out in the garage sitting in my car at 1am, daydreaming about spring.
My list:
- delete air pump; add pulleys and block off plates.
- add resonated mid-pipe, so I can hear the stereo
- new pads and rotors all around
- add dual oil coolers from an R1
- replace MOP
- install fast IAT
- keep looking for a deal on a Twin Power
- go see thewird in case any of the above requires a PFC tweaking

All done except the brake work, the TP, and the trip to thewird.
Also discovered that the reason the blower fan was so noisy and didn't move much air was that there was a mouse nest built inside the intake duct! Guess that's what happens when you leave a car in a barn for 2 years.
