Oil Changes done easy
My latest acquisition:
![]() Will be using this to do oil changes from now on. Takes about 5-10mins to empty the old oil out. Easier disposal of oil too. This is a video of a similar product, shows how it works.

This guy wouldn't have the balls to push his car 9/10ths on a track let alone race on a proper track. His only posts on this forum is are only to attack me.
Don't forget your fire extinguisher while your out on the track too 'Retyred' ![]() |

Ordered a new clutch and lightweight flywheel(10.5lbs) for the car. From @86drift.com
http://86drift.com/act-heavy-duty-pe...heel-included/ ![]() Really keen to see how much of an impact the lightened flywheel will have in unison with my other lightening/performance mods - Full I/H/E & Tune, completely heatwrapped exhaust, final drive, Crawford blocks, lightweight(4.9kg) wheels, CF D/shaft and -80kgs weight reduction. |

Got a new steering wheel(not exactly)
With the advent of the new driving games(Driveclub, The Crew, Project cars) being released for PS4 I decided to get a gaming steering wheel. This can be used with the PC, PS3 and PS4. It's belt driven, so none of the clunky grinding noises like the G27 has.

Had my new clutch and lightweight flywheel installed
Car revs a LOT quicker and freely now. Much easier to rev match.
Here's a vid(car is in neutral) [ame]http://youtu.be/-uhu1tNcCy0[/ame] |

My those are some quick revs.
That's awesome. What's the ETA on this car being fully functional?

Ordered the Torquesolution TB spacer, so once that comes in it'll be installed. Don't think there's any point for a retune for such a small part. Things left on the 'wish list' for this year Whiteline Sway Bar kit(front and rear with end links) SPL parts rear LCA's Beat some turbo/soopacharged 86's on the local track on my road going tyres(if I can) ![]() Maybe beat some modified STi's or Evo's if I'm good enough That's about it.. will focus more on track days, not sure there's much more I can do to the car powerwise while remaining N/A and not taking out the engine. |

Nah no way. I'm happy to stick to United P100. I really hope they don't phase it out.
Speaking of phases.. I think my CF DS might be out of phase :/ Gotta pick up some extra long 14mm wrenches tomorrow I think and turn dat bish 90 deg until there's less NVH. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDmz0tibVGM"]Driveline Troubleshooting - YouTube[/ame] |

P100... so 100 octane gas?
If so, I'm pretty jealous. Although it would be overkill for my car

Cars up again on jackstands. Going to see if I can rotate the driveshaft 90deg to eliminate the vibration I'm experiencing(I've got a hunch that the DS is out of phase hence all the extra NVH since the HD Clutch/Flywheel install).
I've checked the transmission mounts too, nothing amiss there. ![]() Inspected my old driveshaft, the holes in the driveshaft flange appear square(also measured them too) ![]() Bought some Crows Feet socket/wrenches too to help get out the 14mm bolt/nut holding the drive shaft. It's a real tight fit. Can't fit a socket in there.
