Started noticing the G consuming more oil than usual as of late. To get a start on preventative maintenance, I just ordered a Mishi oil cooler (core), catch can, and then an oil pan spacer. I haven't checked the plugs yet so not sure whether the valve cover/gasket is to be replaced but will be looking into it.
I only bought the core for now because the spot I want to mount it will require some custom fab bracket and need to test fit before getting lines. Speaking of, anybody know the cheapest spot to get stainless steel hoses/fittings? Probably only need 2 5ft hoses and -10 fittings.

Slick got a bath, no soap just soft water. Volks polished with Mothers metal polish, tires dressed. Windshield clayed and cleaned, amazing what the clay picks up! Finishing touch is wipe down the entire car with Adims detail spray and micro towel, surface feels like she was just waxed!

8lbs lighter each is significant in unsprung rotating mass. It's equivalent to 3x normal weight reduction. So its like removing 100lbs when changing all 4. That would be a noticeable performance upgrade.
