Well, folks, I was hoping that my intake kit would get here by Saturday
so that we could KC guys could all stand around it and scratch our heads
like good monkeys that evening, but it may not get here until TUESDAY!
I'm tweaked.  I know I cheaped out and got UPS ground, but sheesh:

Most of my orders from CA, PA, or anywhere in between get here in three
days, so there's still hope.  For the record, I ultra-cheaped on this
order, and am waiting for this to arrive:

Yeah, yeah, POP ownz, blah blah.  I'm not as smart as you think I look
am, but I think I can get around the velocity issues that make the JWT
POP charger so superior.  Ingenuity may prevail; it may not.  A few
other B15'ers I've talked to have made this work, so we'll simply have
to wait and see.  At any rate, even this has to be better than my ghetto
intake's tray filter element rubbing against the unidentified electrical
connectors on my driver-side strut tower. :(

Oh!  I did another major upgrade today; windshield wipers/fluid!  Yes,
folks, this is one area that Nissan didn't pay enough attention to.  I
have no idea what the build date on my car is, but when I took posession
in late August, the wiper blades already sucked.  It's taken until the
first somewhat-serious snowfall for me to get them replaced with some
Bosch Micro Excel refills.  Combined with RainX "pink stuff" fluid, I'm
all ready for winter, assuming that I can keep the car itself under
control.  I'm a much happier camper now. :)
