I am proposing a show and shine day with the Supra club at the Wheels show in March 2009.

Initial thoughts were to have the people of Canberra viewing our cars in the morning, casting votes on the best exterior and best engine bay. (no interiors as we don't walk half of Canberra looking inside our cars. Count the votes at 1pm and go home like we normally do.

This is an event that anyone could win and encourages these with more bling then swing to come on out and show their great looking cars.

This is a $0 cost event for entrants with maybe a few $$ for a couple of prizes.

Will we see the clean lines and silky black paint of Donnon's car overcome the custom paint job Ross's car has had? Only the people of Canberra can tell us.

This is a great idea mate.

I'm flattered, but embarrassed that you are making my car an example John, the poor old girl has got some battle scars and is need of a freshen up, but this won't happen until late next year. Then again we do have another Supra that has been worked on for a number of months now that would make mine look like a Celica........ :)

    • Interesting. My tuner said after the tune that my fuel economy would be better but it is the exact same from what I could tell even though my car was running rich before lol. How much do km do you reckon you get on a full tank of petrol on your commute?
    • A little follow up here on the ceramic coating.  We've had storms galore here and I've done a few ks, enough to gross them up  Consensus is that they didn't get as dirty as usual, the coating definitely repelled a little of the dirt and I think they kinda snowball. They get a little dirty and then they get dirty faster which makes sense. Cleaning them regularly would allow them to protect better.  Cleaning was a breeze. I tried first to just hose them off which, unsurprisingly, did nothing. But, making the wheels wet and then just wiping them over with a used but clean microfibre cloth was all that was required. I didn't need any cleaner at all, just water and a cloth. The wheels look amazing again.
    • Gave her a nice wash today and took extra time to clean off the tree sap and tar and crap. We have a usable garage now so she'll stay cleaner longer. Took a few snaps in some nice light afterwards.   
    • OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat
    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
