Panda Eyes

I feel like I'm still in the yesterday

finally finished.

Not the prettiest engine bay out there but cleaned up ok...

Very minimal.... VID20210723120112.mp4

yep I'm not a brand name snob, but everything they do is so damn good. Done the 3 way clay bar- there's now nothing on the paint whatsoever- feels as grippy as heck. Now to add the wax and finally protection. I wont ceramic this time, but plan to in 6 months (I do about 3000km a year). Thanks to my lad @sir_awesome_- he's the main one doing it.

Why is it that when I'm free to leave the house any time I want I'd rather just stay in and play online, but the moment we're in lockdown I wanna go do something...

Lockdown, plus torrential rain. What else to do but do a full detail...

As title says- only used on 1 car since new- 5 unlocks left. Location Adelaide Hills, or can post at buyers expense. Can send pics showing unmarried (the module, not me 🤪) $400.00 Text Pls- 0403 507 905

Hey mate, nice write up and build. My car is having a few improvements made as we speak after sitting pretty unloved or driven for a few years. After my lad took his newly modded fg to the bend a few weeks ago and showed me the vids I'm keen as a bean to give roll racing a go. Happy to meet up for a cruise too if you're interested- I live up in the hills, so plenty nice roads to explore.

I'm sure that will work out juuuust fine....

Actually they really hook up. Mainly. https://www.michelin.com.au/auto/tyres/michelin-pilot-sport-4-s

yep that was the only time I took it out in about 6 years! Hasn't been out since. only reason I've started again is the lad pushed me along- he's now got a fg2 which is about to go into Jets for the works and he wants to cruise. -now registered, insured and getting new tyres tomorrow. time to cruise

2004 BA MK2. just over 110000. been sitting doing nothing though for about 6 years.

Finally got my 365rwkw BA out of the garage after sitting there for the last 6 years or so. Tyres will need to be replaced- plenty of tread, will be hard and brittle as hell though. Want to put as grippy as there is on the rear- will never be out in the wet. Needs to be legal, and would prefer something that doesn't need any special preparation to heat up. What are you guys finding is best to get the power down on the street. Won't be taking it on the strip. Thanks all 😀

im in nairne- adelaide hills. cudlee creek fire came very close to us- we had to evacuate as it was heading toward us. after a few hours wind changed and it started to head north easterly so we could return. good friends of ours were not so lucky and lost their home in Lobethal 😢 he's interviewed here- Justin Woods https://www.9news.com.au/videos/national/dozens-of-homes-destroyed-in-sa/ck4faj1vt001w0hnulvxm7h35

was checking out the lads cleaning stash. the claybar solution is called '3 way'. bowden is a kinky little fella.... lol I bought that for 50k.... plus 4k for the wheels

not that one yet. my lad is fully into the detailing and has the snow job swirly cannon thing and a killer pressure washer. All this 'fancy' stuff def not a gimmick. makes maintenance sooo much easier @arronm eg after a week of gravel roads and rain, all it took was a presoak and pressure wash to clean the R Line. not a cloth or sponge in site.... win.

its actually really good stuff. they have an amazing wet apply wax called- wait for it- 'wet dreams'... amazing bead porn.... and repels dirt from sticking too. spray on, and wipe over with wet cloth then hose off. water just beads and runs off. Def worth getting...

benefits?

snap. I took mine out the garage for the first time in about 9 months... doesnt need any tlc though, as my lad clay barred it before it got put away under a car cover..

read it as one sentence and just about passed out from oxygen deprivation.

I remember reading an extensive report on water spray testing years ago- turns out that the timing of the spray is crucial- and it wasnt when youd think it would need it.

If this was the biggest problem I had I'd be happy.... Need more info about this hill before we can help, eg: Does your weed dealer live at the bottom?

the cheapest way is the dearest way... Take it to a tuner that knows these cars and get them to sort it. its gonna cost....
