Thats a shame id imagine there would be a good market for them .

 

defo mate, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen somewhere advertised somewhere

 

im sure a lot of blob owners would want a new set , me included

 

Hi all, got a few bits done to the car....what I bought

zunsport grill
new badge
c4 trim repair
​​​​ pics....

 

I think it looks a lot better with the badge and zunsport grill

 

Morning all, bit of a random question but here we go....my bc coilovers which I know are at the low end of the market are less than a year old, I’ve heard they rust pretty quickly so as I’m off next week for a few days would it be of any use to clean them up and spray them with clear dinotrol just to preserve them? I will be upgrading them down the line so obviously the better the condition there in then I’m sure they will be of use to someone else, thanks.

 

Cars looking gd fellaregarding the coilovers have u thought about using them suspension shock sock covers dunno if they actually help or not t b fair tho.

 

Cheers mate 👍👍

ive never heard of suspension socks 😂...do you mean something like this??

 

That’s a stunning looking car!

 

thanks mate ✊

 

These kind of socks lol

 

cheers mate, I’ve ordered some clear dinotrol so il give em a good clean then spray them up next week 👍

 

Was filling up my tyres and noticed mine are looking a bit tired, didn't realise they had gotten that bad.

I'd like to hear opinions on those socks do they trap moisture in causing more issues or do they prolong the life of the suspension.

 

I had a set of BC’s on my STi for 5 maybe 6 yrs and within year or so the powder coat had completely disappeared off the springs,to be fair when I removed them the bodies were still in very good condition,pity they don’t put a bit better coating on the springs when they are manufactured,maybe a light coating before fitting will help things but for them (springs) to deteriorate so bad,so quickly,I would think they may need something a bit more substantial to make a difference tbh..just my opinion of course

 

Hi all, hope your keeping safe and well. Took a couple days off work as its my son’s bday and I need a break tbh...got some “minor” things done to the car:

cleaned the bc coilovers and sprayed them with clear dinotrol
new wheel caps
new wheel nuts
new wiper blades
changed the pin on my sigma unit as the original was unknown
paired the spare key I have although there’s a problem which I will post soon, here’s some pics...


BEFORE



AFTER

 

the coilovers are still like new after a year so happy days.

 

Looking good mate. Was it easy to do with good coverage.

Where did you get the wheel nuts from

 

it was easy mate, tbh the coilovers were pretty clean anyway so I wiped them down with a damp cloth then dried them before applying the dinotrol. I got these wheel nuts off my mate, I’m not sure where he got them but they seem ok 👍

 

Hi all, thought I’d give my opinion on meguiars deep crystal Carnauba wax. I rinsed and dried the car before hand like I do with all wax’s then applied it.

 

 

Another fantastic wax, I cant comment on how it repels rain as the car is locked away and I use the work van most the time but it’s very easy to apply and nice and easy to remove. I’m a massive fan of r222 and I will buy another but this is right up there with it. When tomorrow morning come I will see how it looks Again but I’m impressed with it...👍👍

 

looking good Johno, i use meguires myself , i have for a lot of years now, i must admit though i havnt tried this one yet,

 

I gave it another coat today as condensation formed on my car overnight as I didn’t lock it away and I wasn’t happy 🤬🤬 and yes it’s fantastic stuff, I think I will buy it again for a change. I also cleaned the interior with meguires new car scent and again fantastic results. Meguirs really is up there with the best IMO.

 

thank you btw ✊✊

 

is your beast on here mate?

 

yer it is

 

not sure how i can link it unless you search my posts

 

just did mate, my bad for not commenting on it...BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️

 

Cheers Johno, looks just like yours but different wheels

 

Next month my car is going to adgespeed for the following:

rocker cover gaskets
service
MOT
underseal
sort aircon as there’s a leak...

after that I’m hopefully in a position where my car needs NOTHING...It may go to scoobyclinic for power upgrades but that’s just me spending money for the sake of it as this car is my hobby.
