Woke up nice and early, got to Manaz's joint about 9am this morning ready to do:-
1. Engine Oil service w/ Castrol Edge Sport 5w-30 on both cars
2. Gearbox oil service for Dyldo (Redline MT90) and Manaz (Redline LWSP)
3. Install Dieselgeek Sigma shortshifter on Manaz's gbox

Left at 2pm having done the oil service. ONLY the oil service.

Thats it. I quit mechanics

Actually, we ran into heaps of little niggly troubles, not the least of which was blowing nearly an hour on prepping and fitting the shifter only to realise upon testing that the front-back plate will fall foul of a nipple on the gearbox. And hey, we all know its poor form to foul a nipple so we backed off and reinstalled the stock stuff. I'l grind the plate down tomorrow and return it for fitting. Plus the stoopid tool needed to open the drain/fill plugs on the gbox really sent us mad.

The electronics just makes regulated 5v, this is then run onto a USB port. The navman connects via the USB.
It could do ipod phone or anything that runs on 5v.

Test fitted r32 brakes with my momo rims that are a wip to redo. Haven't quite decided on wheel and brake colour combos yet using Trw fluid and Qfm a1rms. Need to have the r32s slotted but not sure if I can bd bothered for this set. !!

I put mine up for sale today.....
Oh I love it soooooo much but its not going to be practical for me right now.....
I still think back daily about how I longed to get one of these, I don't want to sell her but thats just me being sentimental....

Apologies for the poor quality phone camera pic, and the network kit and umbrella in shot!

ahhh you're an IT nerd like me eh Manaz? Guess that explains why your online all the time during work hours

[Driven Threads]

Well I did'nt do it today...BUT!
This past week I had Bilstein pss9's fitted to the car, along with H&R sway bars front and rear. (Thanks again to Rob for co-ordinating the first group buy!) I am absolutely thrilled. They are still settling in, but it has completely transformed the car.

I also had a OEM European skid plate installed at the same time.

Yesterday, I installed my CAI, which I have had for ages.

Took the golf out for a drive in the clouds

My son and i went for a drive up the Paluma range (about 1200klm north of Brisbane as the crow fly's ) lots n lots of twisty roads through rain forest and postcard creeks to go swimming in .
Had a bit of rain so the going was steady but made the drive a bit eerie with the rain clouds coming up the range covering everything.

[Silver dub]

Have you always had those taillights Kaneda?
