Well sun was out for once so after I had finished prepping the vts shell for the scrap man I thought I would give the car a proper good clean inside and out

gave it a couple of coats of colonite wax as the bad weather will soon be upon us





























While we are talking about car cleaning what do people use on wheels? Looking for something to protect these from the insane amount of dust the brakes seem to create and to make them easier to clean

Awesome Gav. Love the wheels & colour.

For wheels I'd recommend Poorboys wheel sealant. Whip them off & give them a proper clean then few coats and it'll wipe off easily, works for me on White wheels so will be fine for you!

Gave them a couple of coats of was before I put them on but I feel it needs something a bit more heavy duty

Nooooo I am now a pre-face convert

Might be tempted by a Mugen splitter though if one comes up for sale

Love the leather seats. Have the door cards been retrimmed?

Is your gear shifter quite wobbly out of curiosity?

Yer door cards are leather trimmed too

How do you mean wobbly as in moves when you drive or feels loose to move?

It doesnt move if you dont touch it, but if you have it in gear or neutral and you just move it from side to side it feels loose. Give it a try and let me know

Thanks Eck, likewise

Plans over winter are baffled sump and oil cooler to make it better suited for track next year.
Might take it to get the map tweaked too as I have changed a few bits. Also considering a higher psi pulley

Like it And that big dark grey thing at the front Boost ftw.

As Graham said - Poorboy's Wheel Sealant. If you need a wheel cleaner then Dodo's supernatural one is ready made and works well, or there's Bilberry which you will have to dilute in an empty bottle.
