Yep blacked out the centre brace on the front bumper with some carbon wrap.

Looks way better.

Just drove the Stagea all of 30 metres, if that!  Reversed it out of the garage and driveway, turned it around at the T-intersection on the corner of where my house is, then reversed it back in so it can be tucked up tight against the wall and take up less room in the carport.

A light clutch suddenly feels a little bit heavier when you haven't driven a manual for ages...

Gonna have to figure out why the radio stopped working, hopefully it's just a fuse and easy to sort out so I can use it more when the weather warms up a bit.   Car loves the cold, I don't.

Good thing is that it's got a fresh pink slip, thanks to the grumpy old man, LOL.  He's driven it more than I have!

After 3 years, 1 month and two weeks of owning my Stagea, I think I've finally found the little directional toggle switch that is used to control the cursor on the TV. My wife found it lodged under the driver's set while cleaning out the car, the TV itself doesn't actually pop up (stillhaven't got round to sorting it) but it's nice to collect the full set of buttons.

Can someone with a PM/PNM35 please tell me, does the controller switch have two Japanese characters on it? Google Translate tells me it says "decision" but I'm guessing it means "select". Otherwise it's a button for something else and I have no idea what.

Did an oil and filter change using an Aeroflow filter so I'll see how that goes.

This one: https://www.aeroflowperformance.com/oil-systems-accessories/oil-filters/spin-on/af2296-1010

Also put in a Whiteline diff bush kit (thanks Daleo) and changed the diff oil.

Diff bushes came out pretty easy with a hammer, washer and some pipe.

Used this setup to try and remove the subframe bush. You can see the juice from the leaky bush. :blush:

I got it out halfway before snapping the bolt and a length of all-thread. It was in there tight! I'd suggest using a head bolt or something high tensile. I ended up pushing out the rubber centre and then cutting out the shell with a hacksaw. All went back in ok and feels all good on the road.

Replaced my center AC vents/trim with a fresh one from Yahoo auctions, wasn't necessary, but there were some small nicks and scratches on it when I got the car
