haha that's funny! Mine used to be like that (but not as severe), only now I have my OEM tails and antenna lying around. So are those Goodyears, BF's, or Yoko's I smell? hehe biggrin.gif

EDIT: I thought I smelled Kumho's!

I have a set of old Kumho tires sitting in my room (backups). I love having car parts in my room because people walk in and be like WTF. But then I cannot wait for stuff to be put in so I do that soon after I buy.

haha, nice room. that's worse than my garage. i keep my clothes in my room (floor). all i have in the garage for my car is a bumper, skirts, springs, and my stock air box. you better hurry and do that manual conversion or you'll have no room left to sleep in.

ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts areon. which means i need to update my sig.
in that pic my room is CLEAN[-er than before]! i had to make room for those parts! lol laugh.gif

let see, my bedroom has KYB's ( all four ), lowering springs, ST sway bars, mesh grill, supra style spoiler, 4 17's tires W/O wheels, and 2 amps.

I'm making room for : boomer side skirts, wheels, JDM high beams, and rear lip. and these are just car related.

last time one of my friends saw my bedroom said that I should be born a sardine.

hahahah..

nice collection.

i have a little room under my staircase, which i've warned my girlfriend not to go into, haha,

it's got pillow ball top mounts, flywheel, turbo, manifolds, half finished interior projects. add tein coilovers, front and rear strut braces intercooler and seats to that next month...

hahaha
^^ dayum! I wish I could say the same.
I had sideskirts, headlights, stock airbox, and other misc parts around... airbox is now gone, sideskirts sold (decided to go with different ones), but they should be replaced with jdm tails this week biggrin.gif

my garage during the 5 speed swap. not pictured is a hood, 404 skirts, OEM rear extensions. also during this time me and a buddy were doing the tein s-techs and kyb gr2 install. Fun times. Lots of parts. The long cardboard box is a greddy sp1.

Finished and rolled out of the garage. It looked so good here, I may revert my look to this more stockish. It's a good feeling all done, you'll love it.

I know the feeling tongue.gif

hurley, look at all the wasted space inside your rims.

my suggestion is get some pieces of cardboard and do the following.

rim on the floor with inside hole filled with parts, that clutch plate and some headlights would fit, then a piece of cardboard, then another rim ontop with other parts inside, then cardboard, then rim and parts etc.

think of all the extra room that will make (for MORE parts haha)

here's an idea...install?

im waiting for mounts to do the tranny swap
waiting to get kyb's and put those in the same time as the springs
waiting for the other two wheels and lugs to be delivered
and the rest are parts that came off the car...the tails, headlight, stock radio

haha all those parts (with the bride seats) are finally installed, making 400+rwhp. It took a while to tune, but its sooo worth it on 20psi.
my collection of parts has migrated to the garage...
couldnt fit the rest of the wheels in my room so all 4 are stacked in the garage and now theres a messed up passenger door panel keeping them company smile.gif

next the manual tranny in the yard will switch places with the auto in the car biggrin.gif

im basically just replacing things so whatever gets installed will be replaced with the old part anyway...so i'll still have parts everywhere even when im done rolleyes.gif
