Being I believe I have ADD and don't feel like going to get it tested, everything i do is always like 80% complete. painting my house is 80% complete, and my car projects are 80% complete.

do you guys have this problem too? in fact I'm looking to start another project in the home ignoring the fact that paint isn't done yet
hahaha

me too. I procrastinate and get distracted easy (i.e. This forum is bad for me at work lol).

I have a transmission sitting in the garage for my audi that I have yet to put in lol. My rewelded DP is in my trunk for my car (well.. i am waiting for inspection). etc.

I have a set of cams, and a wideband kit and a built turbo civic i never parted out
they have been around for almost two years now...

I bought paint to paint my calipers, front sway bar, and FRXs but haven't done it yet... been about 2 weeks now.

I actually attemped to tape off the FRC but couldn't get it to meet my standard and gave up.

I NEVER used to finish anything I started, but now I tend to finish what I started. The only time I never finish something is if I'm in the middle of doing something and run out of time and like have to go do something else, and forget about it. But most of my "projects" are car related, and won't allow me to drive the car until its done, so I have to finish lol

lownslow95 · 09-02-2009, 12:54 PM

I bought my lowering kit, and it still isn't on. Oh yeah, that was about two years ago haha.

BugEyeGuy · 09-02-2009, 01:15 PM

I know for my car, MSD aren't really necessary. Stockers can hold some decent power before needing upgraded.

240sxDann · 09-02-2009, 02:23 PM

Yea nick, honestly, your stock coil is more then enough for a ka-t set up. A lot of people actually say they have WORSE results using the blaster coil.

Snoozie · 09-02-2009, 02:25 PM

The combination of being a procrastinator and lazy is no good. I find myself not even starting projects anymore. lol We've lived in our house for a year now and I have only hung one thing up. I have all the stuff to do it, I just don't feel like it.

den9 · 09-02-2009, 04:13 PM

i bought books and movies that have been sitting in shelfs that i havent touched. i have audiobooks that i never burned and were due back to the library months ago.

russiankid · 09-02-2009, 04:34 PM

It really depends. If its something that benefits me or something I am interested in, I will get it done, otherwise I will put it off.

FocusDude · 09-02-2009, 05:38 PM

I have a brand new coolant contraption on the shelf above me just waiting to go in to the Focus. But no, instead of replacing it in 5 minutes- It sits on the shelf, and my car on the driveway. But I never drive it anyway.

I've first coated paint and got the 1st of 3 piece crown moulding up, and most other trim up. Yet the nails holes need to be filled and etc... I can kind of claim lack of funds.

I was about to build my daughter a playhouse. The sewer main went and they had to destroy my backyard to replace it.

I have a half weeded garden because the baby started to cry.

I always have a excuse! I probably do have ADD though, but so does my brother, and my father kind of for that matter. We just need to be involved with something, whether it be posting on some stupid message board or building a lunar lander.
