It comes up brighter on the photos probably than it actually it is.. but I like it nice and bright I guess - it also matches my Momo steering wheel too, thats one of the reasons I chose that colour pretty much.

Personal taste I guess.

yes i did everything in blue lights even the ain interior light

the aircon buttons backlight as blue and when u press the re-circ and front demisters even their 'on' light is blue... the only green that remains are the indicator lights when they are blinking and the clock and aircon displays, i did around the keyhold cigarette and even the little 'auto' button on the driver-side electric window... i love blue lighting.. its such a nice theme having everything the same colour instead of a bit here a bit there :P you should try it one day :D

hey guys,

i like the effect that the silver gives - great job DJ_L3ThAL, i've just done mine as well in "Optical FX - Electric Plum" paint, not cheap stuff but man does it look awersome, can't wait till i get all the parts back in the car and have a look at the overall effect, i'll start a new thread when it's completed and post some pics of it.

once again good job!! :D

just a quick question - i could get all of the parts out to paint except for the passanger's airconditioning duct, the one where they can choose on/off and swivel it - anyway does this just pop out as it's clipped from behind like all the other parts or has it got screws that have to be undone from behind the glovebox area - i tried to get it out, but it didn't want to come - so i thought i'd just leave it, not force it out and maybe breakit in the process?

cheers :D

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
