  • What have you done to your CC Today?

    hi
    as we didnt seem to have one of these threads i thought it was time we did. so i'll go first

    i had the exhaust tips changed as i wanted something less weak looking than the standard chrome
    ones.got some angle cutback 90mm dia chrome ones.fill the gap up much better and make it look a bit more purposeful.
    also a couple of weeks ago i fitted a red and chrome "RLINE" badge to the front grille.only because i like the look of them,it breaks up the grille and R is my initial.looks good i think.to fit it i made up a solid rubber block shaped to the badge,drilled through it and bolted the badge to it.size is a tight fit through grille slats and i put a bit of glue on the rubber.presto! instant
    badge attached.
    cheers

    I really like the subtle changes, I personally haven't done anything to mine, and might not as its only going to be with me for another year or so. But thumbs up from me for the pics and changes.

      thanks Jath,appreciate your interest.must admit i dont like my car looking like everyone elses so i always personalise my cars a bit.changed the wheels a couple of weeks ago too.that is about the limit of the changes i will do except for a tune.
      cheers

          Do you mind sharing who the tuner was?
          Is yours the NA 3.6?

              superchips,peter james.made the appointment for May.held off booking hols till june,contacted him the other day to
              confirm and was told wouldnt be till june.dont know when he was going to tell me if i hadnt contacted him.
              yes mine is the NA 3.6.

              i have considered DNA.not sure how it would work as i believe you need to open the ecu on my model and dont know if they have a dealer
              up here.

              cheers

                DNA use a handheld file loader from memory, check out the tuner section.
                Unfortunately there isn't much of a focus on teh NA 3.6 engine as you don't get much of a gain so most of the tuning goes into suspension and exhaust systems.

                  Yeah i believe it is an improvement of 15kw and 25nm. but fuel is improved a little and throttle response as well as mid range torque.
                  so i think that would probably be all i want,not after mega power.just to make a really nice car even better.

                    Just send DNA your ECU. I did this recently with my GTI. Had to go without the car for a few days (not a problem for me) while it went to Melb, got tuned and shipped back to me.

                      apparently they have a loan plug and play kit for the 3.6 which costs $40 including shipping both ways.
                      just prefer to have someone do it rather than me.at my age things go wrong with computers when i play with them.
                      thanks guys for your input.

                        Have you had a chat to Gavin (h100vw) as he does custom code tuning and is based in Brissy, they may hav something for the NA 3.6.

                              If you want to have a go with DNA, I'll come and "hold your hand" so to speak.
