What have you done to your car today?

[clintondane]

Awesome. I\'d love to try it myself but would prefer to have someone there that\'s done it before in case I screw up.

I assembled my braided oil line, Man what a bloody prick those AN fittings are to get on! even with oil.

I feel as if my car is getting better already, with me just doing these things for her; long distance relationships can work

[Jimbob]

removed intercooler to fit turbo heatshields, took for another test drive, seems to pull nicely @12-14psi, wrapped up wiring in passengers footwell and tucked carpet in, now all she needs is a cleean and wof time!

[DacerX]

did some more work on my tablet car thingy, and put my CS stickers on that i have had lying around for over a year, now i have others that i want to put on but they are white and will stand out of a sore toe

[DRFVDR]

Put the RX\'s rego on hold still not had time to sort it but it will cost me less in the long run now

[Ninja8)]

Drove her to work. Smokes on start up my poor turbo seals are giving way!

[Bugle]

17"s off and gold WRX 16"s installed on the Leggy. 17"s ready to be prepped for a powder coat and transplant to the bugeye. Put a charged battery in an took her for a spin, still dig the top end of the TT and even with crappy semi bald 16"s it still feels more planted on the road the WRX

Measured up for the STi ic for transplant to the bugeye, appears everything including the diffuser will bolt straight on

[G-unit]

could have just been a loose bolt on the spoiler letting water in, was on mine

Random I looked at your auction this morning and thought damn its been FS for a while.

Yeah it sure was on there for too long, but I guess good things take time. Wasn\'t gonna just give it away either. New owner was happy as soon as he saw it too. People mite see it round chch ways now.

Yes and oil in the fmic pipes ex car and top mount on current car. Turbo hasnt done many kms since rebuild too!

Rolled rear guards then got carried away and pumped them a tad. Got to space a wheel and do some measuring now to see exactly how much room Ive achieved.

After you. You do any guard work to get yours under? What spec are your wheels? I need to do something in the front but once I space these Ill know how much.

[Roo]

Yeah I held a block of wood on the outside of the guard and just used a steel head hammer to flatten the lips, 17x9 +36 in the back with 10mm spacers (+26) and 17x8 +30 fronts with a 5mm spacer (+25) still rubs all the time in the rear but i\'m not worried

I will get some pics after I put the camber plates in, it\'s rough but it works.

[Marky]

i had a flatmate roll guards with a bat. fcked it up severely, both front guards got creases in them, and told everyone a rock had done it (somehow) haha

today when putting the ecv rod thing back on (tested if parallel will be quieter for long drive - oh god yes) managed to drop the little hex bolt thing right down inside the heat shields for turbo uppipe... took 20 mins just to find my telescoping magnet on a stick thing, i swear the second most useful thing in the toolbox behind cable ties

[funkytown]

sooo motor is back in the hole finally! its almost all plumbed ready to go.

a little bit of electrical plumbing, and plumb in new oil lines and we\'re good for launch.!!!

less forum more spanner time

[funkytown]

you mean wife time. lolol. sunday time != car time unfort!

and i have to order some oil line and fittings tomorrow.

[Roo]

Oh and I used the jack handle between the guard and tyre in the back didn\'t do much but the next biggest pole I couldn\'t fit between the wheel and guard at any point

Always use copper core plugs, iridiums are great on something you don\'t want to be changing plugs on. I also opt for bkr7e\'s rather than bkr6e\'s

I used to do plugs every 6k but lately i\'ve barely been getting 2k from them before they\'re fouled

Wtf.... my plugs are at least 30k old, still runs mint... should I change them more often though? ???

[funkytown]

mm 30k kms out of coppers is pretty reasonable dude! they could go for a change now. 6k kms is probaby a bit extreme.

do you have coppers or platinum in yours?

platinums can last 100K+

[funkytown]

what the packet usually says.

platinums - 100k kms.

iridiums - 50k kms

coppers - 20-30k km.

[Guest]

Coppers only $20 worth so cheap enough to do every 10k.
