Been working hard this week which is why this weekly review is late but it's well worth the wait as my latest Figma figure showed up just moments ago and I've been playing with her for a little bit. Hitagi Senjyogahara from Bakemonogatari came at would could only be the worst time as I was looking to spend that money on the Jetta but now that she is here I can't really complain all that much. Now I need to go find a cute Race Queen to post for this weeks blog. Thankfully there isn't any shortage of hot yummy Race Queens around this year to pick from.
The work week was OK nothing to exciting that I haven't mentioned before in last week's weekly review. So that's pretty boring. Although they did finally get the video surveillance system working again so no crazy antics anymore I guess.
Other than that this weekend I was busy working on some of my own projects. Cleaned up a bit of the house and then finally moved on to the garage and put some shelving units that my dad gave me several months ago. I still need to anchor the other side of the cabinets to the wall though before we go putting anything big in them. I was doing this while I waited for the rain to stop so that I could work on the Jetta outside.
When it finally stopped raining for a bit I scrambled out there to fix the windshield washer fluid line and it was a much easier fix than I thought. I just had to unplug the broken piece and replug in the rest of the line and then fill the fluid tank. That was easy. While I was doing that I took note of the part number from the part in the engine bay that is just hanging there and found out that it is part of the removed remote starter so I'll be able to remove that here soon.
I also finally removed the ugly ass CB radio antennae base that was mounted to the trunk lid and replaced it with a much smaller magnet antennae from a broken XM radio system. Later on I'll probably get a nice white vinyl sticker to cover the hole permanently.
Then I spent the rest of the time this weekend looking up parts for the Jetta and looking at how to do a suspension upgrade and it looks like it'll be a bit more complicated than the roommate's RX-8 but still pretty easy. Also I'll probably spend an extra $100 on extra parts since I wouldn't want to put in the same old 20+ year old rubber parts. It also looks like I'll be investing in a lot of PB blaster as well.
After all that it was time to get to the Foxy Friday Feature and head to bed to wake up enjoy my new Figma figure and write my Weekly Review. Check out some of these cool videos that I found this week as well.

Since I did last week's weekly review in the middle of the week there really isn't anything to new to speak of for the rest of the week. Well OK I had the weekend to do a lot of stuff like another F1 party work on my car work on the roommate's car and this year's first BBQ. Oh yeah some new Super GT news and some new Race Queen outfits. But lets get on with the second half of last week. The important part.
So yeah it was my birthday this week and I got about $100 for my birthday and thanks to the lousy economy that money went to a lot of stuff like gas, food and some car parts. And nothing really fun. Oh well. So of course I had to go see my grandma and thank her for the card and money and then visit the parents for the same thing. Found out that my Step mom broke her shoulder at work helping an old lady. Had to remove a bone spur as well. Ouch! But thankfully everyone else has been doing good. Dad got to visit a really hard to get into automotive museum that I have never heard of before. Lucky guy.
I did buy some parts for the Jetta and I replaced the - battery wire and + battery terminal so now the car actually starts up much better than it has before. I still get the battery light until I rev the engine. Still need to pick up a manual for the car. Took some new pictures that you can find here -- Project Jetta.
While I was able to do some work on my car my poor roommate is still plagued by some asshole coolant gremlin and we just can't get the car to stop leaking coolant. Thought we had it fixed not once but twice only to find yet again a small leak. So that's going to a professional to figure out.
Of course that left us with the F1 party and the first BBQ of the year. Cleaned up a little bit to get ready friends came over and cooked up some hamburgers and it was good. The race was really good and not a run away race like it seems to have become lately. I didn't get that many points so still haven't been able to upgrade. One more race and I'll be able to pick up a major team chassis I'm less than a $1mm away from picking up MacLaren or Ferrari.
And now I'm getting a bit tired writing this before I head off to bed for a bit but before that how about some videos from this week.
Some new RWB goodness showed up. Check out those freaking narrow roads there in Chiba prefecture.
One of my favorite Korean Race Queens at their biggest car show.

And just a little bit late is the weekly review for exactly the same reason the Foxy Friday Feature was late. It was a busy weekend. Thankfully I have the laptop back as I got the power supply back about the middle of the week which meant I could watch anime at work again so blogging got a bit pushed back but I really need to get back into blogging at home more often as I'm missing out on some stuff at the moment. In the mean time have you noticed a trend with the hotties of the week? Yup it's April which means Easter which means Bunny Girls even have a Race Queen in a bunny girl outfit as well. So I'll be featuring hottie bunny girls all month.
So the week was pretty boring actually I was really thankful that the power supply for the laptop finally showed up about half way through the week so that helped me with being able to watch some anime but now I'm so far behind on this season the next season has already started. I need to get some blogging done about that as well. Like the new season and what I've thought so far about the last season. I'll probably skip that one though.
But the fun really started to happen on the weekend. Saturday was the last MoNAC at Magic Dragon Games and it was a potluck type thing but like usual it was pretty lame but we were able to put on our last meetup for a while until we find a new place to. But it was after that that the real fun began. After MoNAC I headed out to a house warming party that a few friends from IMS were going to be at and the host got wasted and danced around and used me as a marinate for a little bit. I laughed so hard and it's on video somewhere. I was a DD so I drove the roommate home and then we went back and picked up my car the next day.
Sunday I was busy cleaning up the interior of the Jetta and it actually looks pretty good. Good enough to take a girl on a first date type clean. Now I just need to get cracking on getting the car running and looking good on the outside. I did find the most disgusting looking moldy and icky air filter ever and decided to not not put it back. That'll be he first thing I replace. Also found the name of the mirror that I want to pick up for it as well. Still lots more ideas for the Jetta floating around in my head.
After cleaning the Jetta I started on cleaning the garage and did a decent job on that but somehow smashed my middle finger and cut my finger nail in half and so now it's not exactly easy to type with out getting a little bit of pain here and there. I was going to blog after that but I was so tired that I passed out early and slept pretty late. Now it's Monday and I'm doing my blogs.
Last week I didn't have any videos but this week I have a few to share. Including some cute bunny girl videos
You can find a lot more searching on YouTube.
Found this video trailer for an interesting anime movie.
