Took a photo of my recently installed window visors and anodized steelies for my winter tires.

immortal_suby · 12-08-2012, 01:24 PM

Got a screw removed from the left rear tire. Luckily it was in the center and an easy fix.

Anorax · 12-08-2012, 01:36 PM

Finished the 1000 mile breakin

Jaylyons1 · 12-08-2012, 01:59 PM

Went to the garage and looked at it for a minute or two.

Sac-BRZ · 12-08-2012, 02:23 PM

Drove it 300 miles back to work, trying to get my 1,000 miles on it..

Andrew360 · 12-08-2012, 07:07 PM

Had a full front xpel ultimate applied from the bumper to the roof. Took the spare and tools out.

- Flashed newest Visconti tune -- getting better every update!
- Swapped rear wheel studs for ARP studs
- Drove about 100 miles today just enjoying the car and nicer weather

Hit the 1000 mile mark. Break-in complete.

dorifuto · 12-09-2012, 03:08 PM

I called mine a piece of shit for barely keeping up with a dodge cummins pulling a trailer over a mountain pass. In fourth at 7,000 rpm I'd did sort of ok but try to upshift and all hope was lost.

glorydays · 12-09-2012, 03:53 PM

Time for a genesis coupe?

dorifuto · 12-09-2012, 03:58 PM

I'm thinking 1le camaro. It's a big ass heavy car but it looks to handle pretty well.

auto?

pulled a bunch of mountain passes in 6th at 70+ in the MT without a problem

1st oil change today (3k) with valvoline 0w20 and oem filter

Had to use jackstands. I really hated jacking it up on the pinch weld but there just isn't much else to use under there. I need to get a set of rhino ramps.

It's strange how the oil looks good on the dipstick but looks like black shit when it's in the drain pan. Bottled some up for a blackstone analysis.

Also noticed 3 places where the fiber undercover isn't tight in the rear where they use shoulder bolts to hold it on. The holes in the undercover are larger than the shoulders on the bolts and there is 3-4mm of play where the undercover can bang against the body. Great source for strange rattles. I had a few spare fuel injector o-rings that fit perfectly to snug the undercover up.
