I've had to drive about late at night the last few days and i must say - definitely looking forward to winter.

Or at least the car is. Wastegate lets off that much louder, boost is just a smidge bit bigger, car is that much more responsive.

Mmmmm, cool weather.

Loving the weather, gave my car a fair bit for the first time since owning it, love my car even more than before :)

Not liking the wet though, crossing Barton Hwy from Murrambateman road to the next street at peak time is a bastard as it is but crossing in the wet... I pooed a little.... im still not over crashing my old car in a slide

I've done a defensive driving course with Dereck from 5th gear. I'd advise everyone to do one, he really explains stuff well and it's good to know how to drive safer. It also teaches you a bit more about how your car handles in unepected situations.

mmm.... cool weather is good. my car hates the heat so mush that it mis-fires and idles rough every time i drive i drive it. as soon as the temp drops to mid to late 20's, car works fine and goes like hell... ;)

Done the same as well, from memory around 225$ or so, some skidpan work and how to brake in emergency situations. Good day.

      All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.

      roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

      I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
