lol I should have stopped by, would have loved to see some f**kin tools doing burnouts copping a yellow sticker and a f**k off fine.

Saw Tone at Cold Rock though :)

Haha yeah that was a bit of a coicindence

I thought that but it was on the nature strip = public property so fair game no?

Even so how can you even defect an unregistered car :/

any of the headlight cleaning kits work the same, some are just more abrasive and take less effort / time

you can also use mcguires plastex or mother plastic polish.

you can even use toothpaste

no matter what you use, just use heaps and spend ages doing it.

lots of pressure is required too

Glassylite..

Hamish I tried the plastx and mguires and yeh it came up good, but only lasted a couple of days, the thing that's good about the glassylite is the 'nano sealer' to stop it from yellowing a lot longer..

The bepore picture is with plastx, and about 20 minutes of constant polishing on each headlight. 2 days and it was yellow again, and worse than before lol

This is Aaron we are talking about, he was getting a sore wrist after the 1500 sandpaper. lol

Pictures still don't do it justice.

Nanosealant for the rip.

FYP

By the way Birds, my daughter wanted to know if you were a little girl, due to your avatar pic. I said yes, the girl you met last night. :)

badd

in person the only way you can tell there is a cover on the light is because of the reflection..

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
