mm I wana try that brake combination when my rotors are done.

 

My car has been used for nothing more than buying food from closeby establishments (trying not to sound like I constantly eat fast food) so I'm doing a 3500km oil change today cause I have more important (life related) things that I should be doing that I can't be bothered doing. I don't come on boost when cars not warm though.

 

Had it on hoist first thing this morning - FFS me and the mechanic couldn't see fuel leak. I made sure I thrassssssssssssssssshed the car on the way there to throw the fuel around the tank as much as possible. Said to bring it back to him tomorrow morning after filling it up.

 

 

I need a passenger to take a video of how the cars running lately

I have them too, it's more light blue/green really :(

 

Clashes awesomely with my orange calipers

 

 

 

 

 

 

PS washed the car for the first time in about 4 months and first time at the new house.  What forced my hand was needing to prepare for driving it to a funeral of a friend on Tuesday (nine year cancer fight finally ended).

Thanks man, I'm going fine, life is just unfair and you have to accept that at times.  He did - never complained once about it even when laying crippled in hospital he still made everyone around him laugh.  Really great guy!  Packed more into his 36 years than most people manage in 80 and had no regrets despite the sh*t cards he was dealt.  The world needs more people like him around I tell ya!

The old rotors were a bit stuffed. I'll just post pics of one side cos; a: it looks the same anyway and b: I've only done one side cos I had to get the boy from school.

 

 

Removed old rotor and cleaned the hub with emery tape.

 

 

 

Gave the rotor a quick clean, measured runout (0.01mm) then put the caliper back on.
