depends on which one I'm driving
the window mount for the blackberry is pretty useful for gps
charger for the blackberry too
tire guage, 4 way, 1 jackstand and 2 spares are a must for the subie
spare fucking keys
AAA card and a working cell phone 10/24/2009 11:12:55 PM |

Go to wal mart or prep boys and get you a small 50 something pc tool kit and keep it in your trunk. I've got one and its been great. You don't need anything major just something you can take lights off and the intake or something. 10/30/2009 8:37:43 AM |

I have a mint condition skull shifter with matching skull window lock buttons from a BMW I bought. MINT CONDITION SON.
Other than that, I get all my accessories from the clearance table at Advance Auto on Western.

depending on how much the car has been fucking up recently, I have a tote bag with at least 50 pounds of tools in it 11/2/2009 11:17:48 PM |

^ hahahah I agree. I keep a
10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm, spark plug socket,extension and ratchet bare minimum 11/2/2009 11:23:53 PM |

^I keep about 40lbs of tools in the 240sx at all times
it's my main tool collection and I can do anything I need to on the car with just those tools (from spark plugs to stereos to engine pulling!.. of course, I'd need my cherry-picker for that, but I'm just saying). I keep the laptop handy for long drives in case I need to work the ECU. 11/3/2009 10:01:05 AM |
shmorri2 All American 10003 Posts user info edit post |
I have a tire iron, electric air pump (for spare tire), and a "break in case of emergency" condom packet.
...
Oh, and there's the extra box of fuses, flash light, and a 20lb halon fire extinguisher...
