I will be doing this also in the next few weeks, also, you wanna come drag on Saturday the 19th of this month at Calder? Daytime drags... I know we forgot to invite you last time... I think Benji said he's up for it again, I'll talk Bevo into it too, Aurion V Aurion V Aurion V Aurion :toast:

I think i'll be working that day, not sure yet. But i'll let you know. :)

Washed my baby,

Papa Smurf :) So shiny, love claying.

Also took my front grill off and am in the process of painting it black, until I can afford to buy the genuine sportivo grill.

Wash her, rotated the tyres with just the standard tools and jack (which is all you need really, just takes longer) and cleaned 6 years worth of brake dust from the rims. Now looks very shinny!

Posted

gas axed the front of the celsior to remove the motor.

Posted

Put some new rims on her

Ouuu.. sounds familiar indeedy! Pics???

In my thread there is, bad weather, so bad pics, will take some tomorrow if the sun is out

Fitted the TRD blue brake pads (the TOM'S big brake kit, with 6pots up front was just a little too pricey) now combined with the new Pirelli P7's the Tarago stops a hell of a lot better

I finally washed the car. It had been a month since I washed it. Damn so much mud came out. Had to use the two bucket method because by the time I washed half the car the bucket was black as. Also the inside was filth so the inside got a detail with vacuuming, leather treatment, dash and plastics etc.

God I just love it when she shines and you put that final touch on with the tyre shine. :spiteful:

has been a busy week...

Saturday - Mick.Wheelz put my lows and superlows on...

from this

to this

new017.jpg

end result - looks great but front passenger side OEM Toyota strut (16 years old) had collapsed - solution?

Monday - Purchased some new KYB Excel-G front shocks (left and right) and had enough time before the sun went down to install the passenger side so I could at least drive my son to school in the morning in my car...

Tuesday - Got the other shockie installed after returning from the school run...

later that day this arrived...

Got my car back after getting it raised a little and an alignment.

Rear Toe Before: -10.3mm, Rear Toe After: -0.7mm

Hilariously bad!

Posted

got some 4300 HIDs (i think) in the foggies and gave her a good ole wash and attempted to clean the rims :D oh and i can't forgot the air freshner

Posted

Dropped the car off at Panels and Performance - can't wait to see the results!! Then home to apply a coat of wax even though the wind is freezing and will require several layers of clothing <_<

Posted

Washed and applied Autoglym Paint Sealant :)

Posted

Just put a coat of wax on the car - wasn't as cold outside as I thought actually, quite nice weather for waxing :) Now along with the shine I've got gloss, car has come up brilliantly :clap: Need a full sun day to see if all of the swirl marks are gone but so far so good, a heap of the scratches (including the one that 'pushed me over the edge') are gone and the deeper ones are much less noticeable, very very happy :D
