Graduating High School what should I buy as a present to myself?

[Orion ZyGarian]

Fuck yeah +1 to mechanical engineering! I think the hardest part for me will be my first two years (starting the second in fall) as I dont get any engineering classes till junior year.

I will say that theres little else out there thats better for these cars after all necessary maintenance (and then some) than an exhaust. A full 3" mandrel bent. Thats my next step.

A car that you're not going to be fucking tempted to dump money into while you're in college.


Don't get me started :\

Take it from a now senior Mechanical Engineering student, the first two years are easy. The classes are MUCH more interesting and you learn much more, but its harder.

I can't believe I'll be done in a year and I'll have to enter the real world with a real career and all.... time flies.



To the OP: CONGRATS!!! and CONGRATS again for wanting to go for Mech Eng.!!! If you have school funds worked out already.... i hate you. Buy the turbo timer.

 

[Orion ZyGarian]

Turbo timer? IMO a waste of money. My turbo isnt water cooled, so if I was dumb, maybe...

Regardless, I use it as a joke on people all the time. If nothing else, you can justify it as a joke. For example, this is how I do it with my family: take the key out and stare at it with an exasperated look as the car still runs. They tell me to turn the car off and I simply say "it'll turn off when it damn well pleases." I walk away. About 1:30-2 minutes later, it shuts off. VERY entertaining.

What brand intake do you currently run?

Quote your self, ftw.

 

[DonS1mpson]

A college education.

Unless he knows exactly what he wants to do with his life, that could be the worst advice he'll ever be given.

I'd vote Exhaust if you don't already have a decent system

 

[chopstickz]

exhaust would make you happy... a downpipe also

 

[Kckazdude]

I still say use it to pay back the loans you have from this thread. You may get a bigger surprise when you offer to pay it back as well.

$20.00 to bribe someone old enough to buy booze for you, $80.00 in booze, and stay drunk for a good couple of days (hell, go to graduation drunk, it'll make for good entertainment)

No! I knew someone that did that and he missed his graduation lmao. Stupid dumbass!

 

[suprastanger507mgte]

A good quality hooker

The pipe ? or the 2 legged kind? :biglaugh:

Regardless of what he wants to do, that piece of paper will always yield more than a GED/HS diploma equivalent

 

[Kristian_Wraae]

Test pipe - probably the most fun of the three items you listed.

I regard the other items as money wasted on a stock setup.

 

[Zumtizzle]

A few books at college

How could this be the worst advice ever given, Kid?

I'm telling you too, go back to school. :3d_frown:

 

[OneJArpus]

put it towards.... GAS!



A good detail job on the car

 

[starscream5000]

I take it back... Cheap booze and a cheap hooker, and a little gas to make it down to the health clinic to grab a bag of rubbers. :naughty:

 

[LilMissMkIII]

Get a cheap turbo timer, and use the rest for college

 

[blackturbona]

turbo timer for sure! theyre awsome and yea not expensive

oh and booze!

 

[IJ.]

The pipe ? or the 2 legged kind? :biglaugh:

Well I did say "quality" I think a missing leg may preclude this

All jokes aside buying some stupid car part to celebrate something as big as graduation?? WTF do something memorable that you'll talk about 20 years from now!
