went offroad. (to get to a bike riding spot in the wombat forrest) not sure if car is still black or paintjob is really leopard print brown/black/grey.
Tried to take off my front rotors without any luck! Got one off, but the other one wasn't going anywhere! Beat the **** out of it, smashed it with PB blaster, tried the two 10 holes that are there to help push the disc away, stripped one bolt & ripped the head of the other one. Looks like the only way it will be coming off is to oxy the disc, lucky they need replacing.
Yeah tried that, the rotor has hammer marks all over it. The c@nt of a thing just wont budge, it a DBA aluminium hat as well I thought it would of come off easier.
Refitted fog assembly that came apart when I popped the front off last week then smashed a fox on the freeway the day after I fixed it :/ Checked the damage to the wifes car after one of our staffys decided it would use the bonnet to tap dance on ffs. Its stuffed, lucky it wasn't my car or said dog would be spilled across the driveway right about now.
Removed my monster tach on the pillar as I was well and truely over it. Then put some premium fuel in her and took her the long way home.
Changed oil and filter then degreased 1 cause spilled some oil due to being in a rush and 2 engine was getting a bit dirty. Also sealed up a hole in one of the tyres from running over a screw in my shed.
Put 3 coats of wax on the wifes bonnet and washed my wheels. VY sleeper, Steel and Aluminium are a bad combination. Galvanic corrosion is a bitch. Try getting the discs hot then try again
The usual $2 car wash regime. Picking up my new SV6 in a month...no point cleaning the old car anymore. She'll be someone else's soon. Gonna miss her.
Drove it to the local performance garage.. Handed over the keys and my credit card number.. Said 'Ring me when it goes fast'.
Drove it to work and getting really pissed off with its performance issue, cannot determine if its ignition system related or transmission maybe.. but as the transmission was only repaired/rebuilt less than 15,000km ago, i would hope nothing is wrong there. General shifting seems to be ok, except when in Power mode, but apparently thats normal? When taking off, even slow, it feel as if i need to put my foot down a bit more for it to move, it seems like it needs to rev higher to go anywhere now.. hmmm...
Took it to the car wash again after a few drives through gravel to get to a customers house... Not happy
built a new sub box, put it in the car, tested it and planned a bit more for the cars boot install also almost had the front and rear bumpers dented coz idiots dont know how to park -.- one of them was literally rubbing the numberplate
Let my fiancé drive it again.....I'm so thoughtful. Hopefully today we will have $$ to get a couple of small parts we need before we send it off for a RWC on Friday And by small parts I mean quite possibly a whole cooling system. I am either going to burn this car or burn my fiancé.
