  • Just removed the sound actuator. Happy with lowering the fake engine noise as I'm getting too old for the vroom vroom
    Together with the mid-muffler delete, it works really well. Quiet when cruising, and get the farts and burble when stepping down.

    • I always wanted to do the sound actuator thing.

        Since HP have been taken out of the loop the cost should now just be whatever the conversion rate of the day has it at.

        It's around $1115 USD - I paid $1469 two weeks ago from a registered APR dealer in Adelaide.

        • I haven't posted in this section since around the late 80's.

          - De-wiper kit on the rear.
          - Flow-Design lip on the front.
          - Not sure if HP APR Intercooler, Intake and exhaust pics were posted last time, so through some old ones of each of them in for good measure.

          I'll get some new pics after the next wash now that lip is on.

          Took it to the drags and ran a new best of 13.5
          Can prob scrape a bit off, as my launch is OK (I think) but I haven't quite nailed the optimum shift times towards the end.

            • Picked up my car last week, spent the weekend detailing it and applying Kamikaze Miyabi Coat to the paint, Nanolex Glass Ultra to the exterior glass, Nanolex Textile and Leather sealant to the seats and Gtechniq C5 to the wheels.

              Some silver vision indicator bulbs to remove the fried egg look.

                    • Very clean Sir.

                      So does 6C have to sets of Fog bulbs? The fogs you replaced do the outside cluster, but there's also a separate innner one?

                        • If you have the led headlights the outer fog lights are blanked off, as the drl's are built into the headlights.

                            Nice work getting those covers off but how is it done? I like the end result with the new LED DRLs!
                            Thank you

                            • They're dead simple to remove, I might make a quick video on how to do it.

                                Please do it. I'll watch this thread for the link. No rush!
