Bah - never heard so much dribble in my life

In saying that - Steve's VR sounds freaking awesome in real life and stands testament to how a VR6 can be done tastefully.

I look forward to hearing how you go over the next few months. Sounds like u have a good battle plan.

Battle plan I have whether or not I can carry that out to how I say that will be a battle itself.

Ok Fellas been a while since I posted up in here so here we go, had a small update with the car over the weekend I changed my wheels back to the stock BBS! I had left rayray086 (Raymond) my wheels for the time being as I didn't need them cause I had the Porsche 928s.

So seeing as I have sold my Porsche wheels I had to change them I went and picked up the wheels from Raymond and then headed off to EuroAutomotive to go fit them. I would have done it at home but my jack at the moment is crap and I really need to get a better one with stand! Damm it was a hot day Saturday so and once I got there I was really hesitant to put them on :[

So I waited a few hours once there was some shade and then attemped to put them on. As I was taking them off I realised that there was a fair bit of buildup under neath those wheels wells, so with the help of Pierre with his OC120 I started out with the right hand side and then sprayed the OC120 in the wheel wells. Well to tell you the truth there was so much buildup it was crazy, but I guess that 12 years can do that to the car in its passed owners from the South Coast to the states west in Albury!

I then left the right hand side for a few minutes so that it could attack it and then hit it with the gurny, WATER EVERYWHERE, I'M SOAKIN WET lol but what a difference! Each wheel well came up really well, I am going to actually get under there with a toothbrush in the near coming months before I get the other wheels on but I was really happy with the outcome of it, pics to follow


I found that the rears where just as dirty as the fronts which I found really surprising as I thought that would have been less dirty, but they came up the best!


Inside of how dirty it is, when I was gurnying the insides most of the muck came from the top near the strut tops.




The fronts where really bad to, hear you can see the adaptor for the Porsche wheels! Also when I painted the adaptors with heat potectant paint it started to come off lol. Also the Red Stuff pads and the 288mm slotted rotors.


My V2s where dirty needed cleaning to hehe. Once again and same with the rears towards the top of the wheel wells they were really dirty.



hmm dirty again lol.


The wheels as they came off placed very carefully for the next owner he knows who he is haha.


And the front wheels, accompanied with the OC120 cleaner that I was using throughout this whole progress. More pics of cleanliness to come.

After hitting the wheels with the gurny they came up pretty decent but I am going to hit it again in the near future with the tooth brush and scrubber, I created a pool infront of Sebs workshop and almost inside it to, and now believe that I am the main cause as to why the Worragamba dam is so low :S

Enough talk pics time:


Rears, the photos actually make the wheels look more dirtier than actually they came up alot nicer.


The fronts had some weird kind of vasoline looking like substance, will hit this hard with the turps and brush don't you worry. And I didn't touch it but wacked it with a broom and it didn't attack back so I'm safe lol.




Nice and clean under there me says.

I should have taken a photo with all of the crap and grime on the floor it was nuts, I did this same process to the left side but never got any pics it was pretty much full of grime like the right and the same.

So after that I lowered it back down and took a few more snaps. Just to see what it was like overall.
