You mean you would buy a new Merc, but not a "sporty" one?


I'd probably go an e63 AMG or a C63. A big ass luxury boat.

You gonna be doing a writeup or something? Would read.

Yeah, prolly will do. Once some more parts arrive and I start doing work on it.
I'm most likely going to do it all in one hit. Turbo / Box / 5 Stud / Skyline Brakes / Exhaust / Cooler / Bars

you're kidding me, right?

Today, i installed Led globes into my existing fog-lamp surrounds. Not unlike these ones -

I never, ever use my fog lights and i do like a good led myself, so these are rather suitable, they're nowhere near as bright as the regular bulbs, but are very distinguishable.

Well after replacing the heater hose and coolant yesterday on the car. Then once that was fixed the pump must have also been on its final legs,
so today I changed that after getting one Quote of $350 to change it and that was me supplying the pump at $108 and a bottle of $50 coolant. oh also
had to change the Coolant filler lid $23

Glad now.

This is a Ve water pump at 206,000ks.

Totally destroyed the diff housing on our car at this weekends logan challenge, ripped all the studs out and bent the sh!t out of it till the diff was half out, wouldn't have known if we didnt by chance look under to see it. Spent about 6 hrs in the pits re tapping and re drilling the housing trying to beat it back into shape, not enough to get us back into the racing in time, devastating.

Adjusted the passenger window so that it sits where it's meant to, adjusted the door striker so that the door once again sits (Sorta? Hella? Nah, just) flush with the rest of the body. Got it all done in less than an hour, I am happy!

Also washed it, one month in a workshop sh!t gets dusty. Also, I shifted it into 6th gear for the very first time like a boss (for those not in the know, I recently swapped gearboxes for a 6 speed)

Started it... It was misfiring, turned it off and started it again... It stopped misfiring.

Started driving, got up the street and the turbo stuttered then cut out, depollution fault came up and engine light. Pulled over, turned off and on, still there. Decided to boost it as it was running fairly normal... hit 8 more PSI more than I should... Determined I shouldn't boost it again...

Got home, went to pop bonnet, lever wont release. Decided funk it, and went inside.
