Got rear ended while driving home by a Honda Jazz (driven by a tiny chick)
Need to check in sunlight for sure but it looks like no damage to my Polo (the Jazz had a bit of a hole in its bumper)

The leather seats are definately more comfortable than the cloth ones. I find that I sink into them a bit more, so they are more hugging.
Installed noones old AP coilovers in a friends Pogo today. Took some time but eventually got it all sorted. Needs a wheel alignment though.
Yeah, but I can't really blame her as it was one of those angled intersections where you look over your shoulder to see the approaching traffic and she thought I had moved on (I was waiting for more of the multilane road to clear so that I could drive across to the far lanes after pulling out). It was a shunt about as hard as the ones you see Richard Hammond giving to James May in the Top Gear challenges.Quote:

on what i did to my car today, well nothing, but i got a phonecall advising my wheels have been painted :D
Ordered some 386cc injectors from Preeny (INA engineering)
Just ordered some Bridgetone RE55's from Trackside :banana:
Went to get 4 new Resma brake pads fitted. Found out my front discs/rotors are un-roadworthy. So just got rear discs machined and fitted rear pads. Got charged $160 labour for this. Does this sound reasonable?
Rang up GSL Rally sport for a set of front rotors. Well priced. Am waiting for them to arrive before i can fit my front pads/rotors. Anyone know where i can get them fitted a bit cheaper? I'm located in Springvale area? Anybody had any experience with ABS on centre road? They quoted me $120 to fit front discs and pads. Do new discs have to be machined when fitted?
Blacked out front badge, installed PD160 intake (after it finally arrived, no thanks to Royal Mail/Auspost).
Car really needs some handling work next, and a service with some new fluids would be just swell.
fitted the forge short shifer to my car. set it to the shortest setting. drove home. the throw hasnt shorten as much as i was expecting but the selection feels nice and mechanical.
if anyone is going to fit theirs this weekend i advise you to use a cam gear puller. mine was stuck on the gearbox and all the rust off and levering wouldn't get it off. i removed the battery and battery box to gain access. removal and installation is quite straight forward
