Coilover covers to protect from winter

So instead of buying winters I impulse bought a catback at an irresistable price I simply could not resist. My excuse is I wanted to redo my exhaust anyway, and the catback/test pipe flange area on the old catback was getting all flaky and rusty. Figured going from 2.25" aluminized piping to 2.5" stainless couldn't hurt. K motors love disproportionately large piping anyway :derp:

Adding to the list, an extra fuse box to put in the trunk for all the extra stuff (instead of running power wires for each one), reverse LED pod, and a remote start adapter kit. In hindsight I should've ordered that last piece a lot sooner.

I was finally able to order my Old Man Emu springs, as well as the rest of the parts to refresh the front suspension in my Jeep (strut mounts, upper control arm bushings, ball joints, and spring isolators all around), and new brake rotors. That should bring it up to a decent height (currently sagged 1" in the front) and reduce some of the floaty feeling on the highway.

Was gonna go to lordco and buy a new boost coupler and t bolt clamps. Lordco only stock Vibrant couplers and they are expensive. I decided to be smart this time and order from silicone intakes. I ordered 2 new couplers and 6 t bolt clamps for the price of 1 coupler from lordco. I can live with a tiny boost leak for a couple more weeks.

I now buy all clamps from Green Line. They also have those fancy T bolt looking ones and are extremely good value for local. The quality of the basic hose clamps blows Lordco clamps out of the water and are even cheaper.

I didn't even know they made Strömung exhausts still. My friends and I all had one for our various cars before, I just remember that they sounded great but were damn loud! EleGiggle It was loudest in my friend's 240SX, he said he was going to install a resonator in to quieten it down. After a few weeks I was riding in his car and asked him when he was going to install the resonator, embarrassed, he replied "it's already in" :rukidding: FailFish

Yes, they're a used set so I didn't pick the specs, but at 650CAD+shipping for a multi-piece wheel, it was a hell of a deal considering the price and the minimum defects (minor lip scratches, a "Designed by WEDS" sticker deformed, and light peeling on the center caps).

If you're very careful about inspecting pictures on UpGarage, there's a ton of expensive wheel sets (TE37, Advan, etc.) for cheap that have minor damage from use.

Thanks. I hate the look of a completely exposed carbon hood unless maybe it is on a black Supra lol

how does that stop water going into the engine bay

No issues at all.

The hood was designed in a way that water comes off the hood when it is driven fast because the air is being released from underneath. There is a lip at the bottom of each of the louver(hard to capture in the photos) to help catch some water. Having a water proof hood would defeat the purpose of the hood. I got the hood because I also had an issue of the hood lifting up almost an inch at speed on the road course. With this hood, the problem is effectively eliminated. The hood's primary function is to reduce lift on the front end and extract hot air from the engine bay. This exact hood is used in the Pirreli World Challenge series.

Picked up some Whiteline lowering springs, 16mm custom made titanium spacers and all the 5w50 oil needed for my oil change on the RS... and I told myself I wouldn’t modify it

Totally forgot about this thread but let's bring it back from the dead!

Just bought this stubby impact at Home Depot - it's at its regular price $199 but includes a free 2.0Ah battery and charger. Haven't seen it go on sale since it came out late 2018 https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200208/277352f6016bfeed0fa93f73acf674b9.jpg

cheap foam cannon from amazon for my Karcher K series pressure washer.

worked real good... even though I only used regular Turtle Wax ZIPWAX car soap.

the only thing is the foam is super thick to go down the drain...

If you guys are looking for a Canadian site for euro car parts you can check these guys out. It's a Toronto company but they have a warehouse in Richmond. Shipping is a flat $10.00 and I got it in the advertised 2 business days. Ordered at noon on Tuesday and got it this morning.

They have a oil change package for my car at good price - even lower than what I would have paid from the US

Would it be cheaper if you bought directly in Richmond through Hope Fung on No.5 Road? I don't use Liqui Moly, but I see their ads on craigslist all the time.

ah didn't think of them - but I think I ended up paying pretty much the same for 7L. I usually can't finish 6L in an oil change so I'm not sure why their package has 7L but I'll take it since Hope Fung would be $66 5L + $15 1L (? not sure as they don't list it on their site) + $10 filter

Didn't know Greddy actually 'made' turbo blankets. Probably made in china as well but oh well, that emblem gotta be worth 5hp at least

I had a JB4 before, custom tune for the specific mods I run in the car and tuned for our shitty westcoast Canadian gas. I was running the off the shelf maps from the JB4.

Tuner was able to squeeze more power from my mods and the throttle response and power delivery is much smoother. JB4 was fun with the extra power, but now the car feels like a different animal.

I bought a Zeta 3 Japan Edition a couple months back because its been my dream seat for awhile and they're discontinued now. Bride Canada only had 2 left so I had to buy it! It's just sitting in my room though because I'm too scared to put it on my car since it could be difference between a box 1 and 2 :(

My 25USD Taobao Racing Development CF canards just arrived and i have to say I'm rather surprised at the quality. Wasn't expecting much but these pieces actually seem rather well made vs some of the $$$ CF i've seen.

Fixed the dang slop in the shift boot by doing a bit of a modification with a shift boot adapter.

New powdercoated valve cover with a new OEM Honda spark plug coil cover.

Also plastidipped the console matte black.
