What did you do to your car today?

Ice blasting would do wonders on that.
Gives amazing results on engines and the likes
 
Tfr (traffic film remover) does the same job . The price of dry ice blasting is stupid as only cleans dirt and nothing else 👍👍
 
Get engine warm and spray a matt dressing or dashboard cleaner on. Close bonnet. Leave it. Open bonnet. Clean and shiny.

Thats one thing I've never tried. I've used grease removers and engine cleaners, APC etc..
Will deffo try TFR man. Great 👍

Works great, often done it myself. Tyre dressing would you believe works great also, and as you said, leave dry in, then buff off after a few hours
 
Nice, what brand was it again? RCM?
Jesus no!! That stuff was well above my budget!!

I paid 750 including import tax from Taiwan.

not in pic.. is also got the pipe up to the Turbo which… “I am in my ho1e fitting!!..”

Plus all gaskets and Bolts for all pipes supplied.

Very happy with it all 👍🏻
 
Just to note.. the quality and welds are way better than a lot of the top exhausts I’ve bought over 17 years.

Figment perfect
 
Had a nice spin today to work and back with no fumes coming into the cabin.
Manifold has done the job.

Dreaded test on Sunday and it will not hold revs at 2500rpm.

Loved the drive today and made me love the car again but this test anxiety just makes me hate it!

I know the way, dreading putting mine back through with emissions. Took 3 attempts last time and passed on 4th. Hopefully no issues this time!
 
More of a general "over the last few weeks" post.

Got the car serviced and checked for any potential mechanical failures in preparation for NCT - coming this Friday 🤢

New tyre fitted for the front right and tyres removed from the blitzen wheels I got in preparation for refurb and painting, probably going matte bronze with a touch of gold in it.

Ordered a new rear wiper motor from England (Nippon Auto Spares), hopefully it'll come either today or tomorrow and that it's easy fitting. If it doesn't, I can only pray that it doesn't get checked.

Driver's side fog light housing and subsequently the fog light is filled with water, so the best method of taking that box and fog light out would be appreciated 👍.

Quote on paint came in as well, so saving is required 🤣
