Default Getting itchy

Some of you guys are feeling the same way I am, while having the s2000 parked for the winter. Being unable to drive it, is starting to get to me. I've got some projects for my car to be done before the big thaw out...such as re-clear coating all the paint on my car, cleaning the underside and adding another coat of undercoating ( prob keeping my S2000 for forever's hahaha! ) so I want to prevent rust and get at any that might be there already...the big thing I guess you could say is my standalone fuel system for my nitrous setup.

So what do you guys have the works for winter upgrades/projects for your s2k?

I cringe at the thought of having that liquid calcium/ salt crap on any part of my car

Its starting to itch at me too, thats for sure. I miss my s2k pretty bad right about now. I miss driving standard in general actually, automatic is boring. Im actually gonna try to buy a 4dr 5 speed as a daily driver.

What kind of undercoat you doing to your car? Oil spray, or paint?

I found that going out and cleaning it while it's in the garage is quite satisfying. I've gotten quite a few scratches out with the PC thanks to the weather Space heater ftw.
