Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

the other day i took the bonneville rims off to get rid of this (am betting this is right where the flat spot is on the tire itself, didnt check, dont care) :

and now i have this:


new to me tires are in my garage, the ones on these rims are pirelli pzero neros in the back and eagle gt on the front. but oh man the car rides tons better on these than with that crap in the first pic!
edit: by the hammer of thor i didnt realize the pics were THAT big

Still too cold out. Was -5 this morning, so it's getting warmer. LOL

Supposed to really warm up starting tomorrow, but then for the weekend.....

All done, she needs a cleaning...I love dirt roads. It's too damn cold for that cleaning stuff though.

all done with what?

is that new shiftier with a perf shift button?

ok. i saw your ride thread. nice work on the switch cover.

I had a performance shift button when I bought the car, then hard wired it when I put this shifter on (shorted the 2 wires together). I guess with Bill's tune there is no performance shift anymore. I finished up the dual heated seats, now my wife can have a hot(er) ass too!

perf shift has even better settings when its on with bills tune.

if you can get your button to work right there is a difference. maybe un do the wires and then put them back see if that lights up the light.

O rly. I'm gonna check into that this weekend...I have a few small projects to do anyways, like wrap the flex pipe in some header wrap.

17's sir.

I want your center caps. I'm stuck with the Mustang embossed on mine. I hear Volvo's are the same size and flat but they're like $60 on ebay, lol.

Its been 70s here all week. Couldnt ask for more

those are the original mustang centercaps. i got these from a friend who had plastidipped them all black, i took the dip off the rims cuz the silver seemed to match my car perfectly, and it just so happened that the dip on the centercaps stayed. was going to try and swap them with the ones from my bonneville rims (looked to be same size) but i was in a rush and didnt bother.

Got my "Cheapimoto Mini" H1 projectors from TRS. Interestingly the cost for them has been $20 for both for the longest time, soon after I ordered them, they went up to $30.

Maybe get some stickers made up to cover the Mustang logo? Reflective concepts could probably do it for pretty cheap.

Changed the oil on the LaCrap for my mom. Such a good son I am.

Whoever did it before me needs shot. Drain bolt took me using my leg as more power to remove it while using 2 wrenches on each other for more leverage . Then the filter crushed trying to use my wrench because the damn hulk put it on like really? Plus it took all 5 quarts which is weird oh well

Got my annual oil change done today, only put on 8K km or 5K miles in the past year.
Last night had the car out for a drive to a small town about 115km from home. Managed to get the car up to some good high speeds a few times once there was no traffic in either direction on the empty country road (111mph), the high + fog light mod with 55w 6K hid make that so easy to do. Down side is the car developed an exhaust leak. The bolts at the cross over pipe came loose. Tightened them up this morning.

^ should really change it every 3/4months if you aren't meeting the mileage

I agree. Even me on full syn, I do 3.5k a year but still change it usually every 9 months. Or 2500 miles.

My BMR Lateral arms and trailing arms arrived.
