I still need to fix my fan issue (thinking a cable got loose).
I washed my wife’s teg this past weekend and now I’m hearing a scraping noise whenever I drive forward, not in reverse though. VERY WEIRD considering I did not change anything. I have to get under there and see what’s up.
Waiting on some hardware so i can install my coilovers & wheels.
I went to a touchless wash with my car, I quickly learned that the sunroof seal is NOT up to the task of keeping out pressurized streams of water lol
yeah it’s not a good idea. I was doing that for a little while during the Maryland winters. The high pressure destroyed my window seals.
Haven’t been to an automated one since.
Just picked up some new shoes for my db2
It looks like the scraping was just rotor corrosion. It sure sounded louder than usual though – threw me off.
@Jomo559 what tires did you pick up?
Picked up some racing shoes that has a big C in the middle lol
Someone left this note on my car yesterday. Messaged him purely out of curiousity and heard his frankly insulting offer. Not like i was ever gonna sell
C’mon @TwoGenTeg you gotta tell me what they offered.
Interestingly enough, I get the shocked look here in Florida that, “Whoa, you’re not Puerto Rican?” regarding the owner of the car.
I have never been offered a value, but asked whether it’s for sale. I turn down the offer immediately.

They guy offered $2700. Totally insulting
That sounds better than the trade-in value for sure. But actual market value? Not a chance.
So it turns out that noise wasn’t just the rotors, it now sounds like something’s hitting the rotor shield or exhaust heatshield. Very raspy sounding, but I don’t hear it all the time, just when I’m driving on anything non-smooth. Gonna have to raise the car and see if something got bent. Lots of squeaking from the front too so I’m needing to lubricate some joints.

Im gonna do a full suspension inspection on mine soon. Gotta see whats the next thing that needs replaced
Just put 220 miles on my car driving to a site and back today. No issues! Hopefully the restore and protect is working itself in, I’m gonna see if I burnt any oil after I park at home this evening but I don’t think I am.
$550 for a wings west rear apron. Worth it? Brand new polyurethane

I think so. I’ll support any business still making stuff for our cars.
It’s a 5-6 week lead time but I need it so I’ll pull the trigger today

I’m looking forward to your support!
I will have brand new aftermarket ICUs (38600-SK7-A01) available in about a month. I have the PCBs and most of the components I need to build the next four units on hand. More parts arrive this week.

Holy crap I didn’t realize you were gonna pull the trigger on that so quickly!
If you set up a thread in the New and Manufactured subforum, you have my full backing too. You can see I have Ninety3 set up there, but he’s not on here much.
If you need help with selling stuff on sites, I can help a bit with that too.
It seems quick to me too, but since it is 80% copy paste from the “EF” ICUs I have been making, and it passed all the tests, I don’t see any reason to hold off. I have no idea what the market is for this. I suspect it must be smaller than the market for “EF” ICUs.
