What have you done to your car today?

I had to respray the whole car because of the paint damage... Now I am thinking to apply some paint protection. Have you tried some? My friend recommended me the one from https://www.colourshield.com website. I need some suggestions, guys!
 
Hey Trevor. I know some people who put a lot of effort into their paint & highly recommend the clay bar but I think that's more for cleaning/polishing than protection. There is also another product that gives protection & is guaranteed to bead water for a year. There's a guy on OzFoz.com who does it. If you ask on there, they'll be able to help for the best products to keep a high quality finish
 
Mounted new exedy clutch, lighter single mass flywheel and a new clutch slave cylinder. Took me two days without a ramp.. Not too bad for a first time I guess :)
 
Nothing !

Just didn't do anything to my car today ! And yesterday and the days before...
 
hahaha! I changed my engine and tranny oil after my 3000km trip to the Alps :)

btw that exedy with LW flywheel is noisier than I expected, but not in a good way.. chattering when descellerating, after searching the net found it is common and now not going to open it again. Was dreading I forgot to torque something >_<
 
I have not done much lately, but just reached this milestone

Finished the KYB/Kings lift yesterday in time to go fishing today!
I got a shop to change the front tophats as my spring compressors were slipping and I didn't fancy getting a bolt shot through my skull.
Now to book a wheel alignment.

I'm following Lefty here

I just finished my springs and strut replacement. Kings Raised all round with Gabriel Ultra struts in the rear and Monroe spectrums in the front.

Getting it aligned as I type ready for some dusty stuff over the long long weekend!
 
Now all you two need to do is add a 1 inch Gorilla lift front and rear !!
Bought a set of Cibie Oscar spot and spread beam driving lights to replace my crappy IPF lights. Got a good deal through European Auto Imports. They have a eBay site and I bought the lights at the eBay price through their retail outlet.
 
More of a 'what I did with my Subaru today' post, but whatever.
I drove it on the beach for the first time today, went pretty well even with the road tyres on. Didn't need to air down as it was very firm sand, but I did have a compressor just in case.

Since everyone's posting about their new suspension set-ups (looking good!) I'll add that my kings have softened up nicely over the last 4000km, they're a lot more compliant now and wheel travel has increased. They haven't sagged though.
I definitely should have replaced both the front and rear struts at the same time, the front right is making a nasty knocking sound. Still damps fine though, strangely.
 
Changed oil filter, oil and fuel filter today. Was a little overdue but nevertheless all taken care of now! :ebiggrin: all up cost me $40 - sometimes it's who you know! :cool:
 
I did an oil and filter change . Changed the plugs while i was at it . I love how easy these cars are to work on :)
 
Last week:

Installed Power Steering, Cruise control and better seats in Redback :twisted:

Cheers
