285 rears and 20" mystery rims

 

Finally got the Rear axle click removed,
$50 for new axle nuts and labor

 

Ive been burning the midnight oil the last few nights... Prepping the car to go to the shop then interior...

Calipers were Red... Thought it would look tacky as my new wheels are coming in and brown plus the new color rim... Would look bad... So I had some fun. I layed down a JET BLACK G2 caliper kit with a brush, then went back tonight with a previl sprayer and did a black Gold Ghost pearl on it.

Looks like this most of the time... Then in some lights BAM the pearl comes out.




Installed hood struts



The hood struts threw off my hood alignment... I have always had issues with it... So I did probably one of my most ghetto mods and I trimmed off the hooks on the sides of the hood where they always catch. If you dont own a G you will never really notice it.

Any real fix for this? My brother's G have similar issue, his hood touching the fender everytime he closes his hood.

 

U can fit the hood at the hinges. But it's hard since u have to re open to tighten.

 

Yesterday I did a brake job. Got rid of those nasty posi quiet pads and replaced with OEM pads and hardware... Car stops so much better....

 

Before that did ur car making a clicking sound when you were driving? Mileage n year of the car?

 

Just replaced my o2 sensors n switched out my test pipes for oem cats cant pass ..

 

I can loan you a putty knife to scrape the OE pad brake dust off your wheels if needed!
Gave SLICK a bath this AM at 7:00 then polished her Volks and dressed her Michelins. She's ready for her drive to Laguna beach later today. Monday she goes into the paint shop, dip and repaint her KurumaZ bumper and paint and install her new duckbill trunk lid. Should take a week...I hope no longer!
