*Update* Well it's about time I gave this thread a little refresh! Few things have gone on since my last one.. 5,000 km service time, switched from 10w40 to this and the car has felt a lot smoother especially on cold starts. No particles on the magnetic sump plug either which was nice to see Service And a mileage pic for reference (still in km) Next bit of news is that I recently made a trip up to see Dean at RWD who made me up a new exhaust system! Here's some pics from the day, some awesome machines at the unit! And now for some pics of the exhaust. It's a 2.5" system, with V-banded silencer/straight through pipe to the Japspeed back box. I wanted to get the silencer too to play it safe with track days. Was pleasantly surprised at how docile it sounds with a straight through though! The noise is amazing on boost though, really really happy with it! Funds were tight so wasn't able to get a new box made up, but I hope to see Dean again sometime again next year to finish it off I also wrapped it in titanium wrap (word of advice, make sure you still use gloves lol). Pops like a mofo when it's warm even in this cold weather and I can't wait to see what it's like when it gets warmer out. Haven't been informed of any flames yet haha Incredible quality of work as you can see, I couldn't be happier with the service and Dean is a top guy! I haven't got a proper video of the exhaust yet, so this poorly shot mash-up of plays with mate's cars will have to do http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AvIqznHaX0 And finally, I've been doing some rehaul of the exterior lighting to modernish the car a touch. And very happy I am with the result This is a shot of the old LED's on the left and a new CREE sidelight bulb on the right Both done Xenons on Reverse light before/after shot And now the interior units, these are crazy haha. I'll let the pics do the talking! And to top them off, I installed CREE indicators all round. Really like this touch, a lot of 13/63 plate premium cars don't even have LED indicators..here'sa video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKhxOD6XnFA Having done quite a few miles recently the poor thing was in need of a bath, so I got him gleaming.. Then did a long trip up North to view Mum's new car (I'll upload a thread for that when I get some proper pics) and got him covered in grit dust again LOL Car has *touch wood* been a fantastic, fun, reliable daily over the past few months. Made a good few long trips with ease and I'm looking forward to having more funds to get modding again! Next few things I'm planning: -Uniroyal Rainsport 3s -Polybushing everything bar engine/gearbox mounts (more likely to be undertaken in the summer) -Oil cooler setup (again probably towards summer) Last thing I'll leave you guys with is a cheeky appearance in the Mighty Car Mods UK meet video, chuffed the car made it in! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VpfSWxo7d0 Amjad
