reduced the gap from 0.035 to 0.029.

Seems to be the right temp range, 300 miles on these plugs so far.

:-)

 

should get my exhaust today... vacuumed out the car, and ordered some new scuttles, just not digging the cooper S ones... and not wanting to drop 100+ on the jcw ones... haha oh and rotated my tired finally!

 

Installed my stubby antenna (not sure if I'm digging it just yet need to let it settle in)
Go badge, tow hook (pull to inflate) all the NOOB stuff! polished her down, cleaned the rims (fun fun)

bought it all from out motoring, very impressed with them. Great prices and it came UBER fast.

 

What color?

 

Went with Flat black since Ill be going with a hyper blue/black theme. Got them in 16 so under 14lbs each will be nice.

 

The back of my Clubman was REALLY dirty. Although it was just before the winter cold struck, I felt so annoyed that I washed off the pillars and barn doors, clay bar cleaned them and added a thick coat of Meguiars #16. Should last through until New Year's as this stuff is nearly bulletproof even though it's a pain in the @#^ to remove.

 

 

^That almost looks like it's for a 350z or s2k. What car is it going on??

 

Installed some AZNOptics 36mm 5000k festoon bulbs for the license plate lights. Looks pretty great.

 

Been holding onto that Meguiars #16 for a while, have you? I thought they discontinued it about 5-6 years ago. I do remember it being hard to remove; the trick was to use VERY thin coats and not to let it dry all the way to a hard haze. Great-looking stuff, though!

 

Those are just my tips sitting there. There not attached

 

That's what I got too. Yep,they are nice and light. Really wanted the gloss black with polished rim, but could only find 3 of them in the entire country. The flat black looks really good though, and cleans easier than I thought it would.

 

Got any pics? Couldn't find many Minis with them.

 

A couple crappy phone camera pix of mine:

 

Nice, umm, "tips"! Here's mine (hee hee hee)


Ju-ust kidding. I'd have needed a hitch extension. That IS my exhaust, but there were these Malibu tips lying around and a friend stuck 'em on there as a joke...

 

I'm at the dealer right now for my annual oil change and they are lookin into the extra rumble/whirl when the ac is on as well as replacing the front wheel arches from cosmoline staining. Sadly their car wash is not yet installed so no free car wash today.

 

Thanks! What size tire is that?

 

Shoot, you had me thinking 'Full Throttle: Hell on Wheels'.

 

205/55R16 (BFG g-Force Super Sport A/S).

 

Awesome I ordered the same size in the General G-Max AS. Thanks for the help

 

now THATS a TIP!! hahah
trwxxa i love the look of those wheels on your car... when my tires are done im looking to get some 205/55 r16....

 

The odd thing is... that tip would likely sound really good, as it'd put the exhaust pulse outside the "dead zone" in back of the car. Might be slightly illegal, though, unless I hung a red flag on it, in which case it'd simply look rediculous.

 

you should of started the car and see what it sounded like.. then kept it and hung the red flag on it... i would of liked it....

 

It didn't take long but my car has developed a rattle on the passenger side... either in the door or dash.

Reached 1900km... "break-in" almost done.

 

Nice! It reminds me of the old toy cars that had the launcher that (I can't come up with a delicate way to say this) you'd stick in their back end.
