Project Non-Waterproof Car has just received its first upgrade: springs! I allowed myself 4 hours to install them. Instead, it took 2 weeks.

Setbacks included failure to read the instructions, failure to have the right parts, hesitation when faced with the prospect of cutting up the rubber bits in my suspension, and most of all, failure to know about the Super Sekrit Bolt that holds the front suspension together.

But, my friends, that is the beauty of Project Non-Waterproof Car--- it can sit broken in my garage for days, and I can still get around using Water Resistant Car.

Anyway, the upshot of this is that if you somehow didn't think it was unpleasant to ride in my miata before, you get to rethink that position.
