Hmm...well, I haven't opened up any xmas presents just yet (doing that in the next couple of days since my dad was out of the country until tomorrow), but I have treated myself, and/or been given car parts around this time that I guess I'll list.

First, I got sooooo many car specific tools (timing light, compression tester, stuff along those lines).
A guy I met on 240sxforums that lived very close to me actually GAVE me an engine he had lying around, drove to my house with a friend, brought his engine hoist, and helped me tear my 240sx engine out (look to the "show us your engine bay" thread that I'm going to bump soon for the comparison). After I order a few things for my car (which I'm going to list), he's going to come back to help me install it too. Great couple of guys to say the least.
This week I have to order my ACT clutch kit for my s13 as well as an oil feed/return line kit for my future turbo setup (installing a return bung in the oil pan is much easier to do when the engine is out and you don't have to fight the x-member and motor mounts).
And I got a little bit of gas money.

Oh, and I'm sending some money tomorrow for my turbo...Holset H1C (equivalent to a t3/t4). still not sure if I'm going to use it or not, may be too big for the engine.

-stance coilovers
-a-spec titanium shiftknob
i got some cash left over, maybe a nismo lsd or a racing seat.

Thats all for my 240 tho, maxima gets nothing.

Can people view my webshots to see if my parents got a Rear Main Seal for Christmas. They purchased 2000-2001 TB, Clutch, and Pressure Plate, but the dealer also recommended doing the seal. Definitely a good idea since she has nearly 150K. Are these pics of a rear main seal? Also will the 2000-2001 rear main seal fit the 1998? I am pretty sure they will, but better to check with the pros.

I also got a Haines Repair Manual and will get my Synthetic Gear Oil soon.

EDIT: OH SNAP ... helps to provide the link.

Well....you all have me beat. All I received was 2 front wheel bearing assemblies and 4 hub seals. Just finished installing them and will be road testing in the AM.

Next up, full front suspension overhaul on the I30t.
