DIY :action-smiley-069:

for all those interested by the way - i am about halfway through doing a full glass restoration on my car - i've taken pics of EVERY step involved. glass is now MINT like brand new...

i tried about 7 different products

ranging from different things that i researched.

such as: (a combination of)

vinegar diluted in water

stainless steel cleaner

shower power

CLR

a metal polish called "Purple magic"

mild steel wool

and lastly...

a $7 bag of weapons grade Cerium Oxide i aquired

my windows were like CHALK. absolutely covered in lime and bore stains.. and for those of you who know me - also know how obsessive compulsive i am about small details. so wait for the write up on what i did - you know there will be good results if i did it. :)

all it needs is a matching bodykit and an owner that will love it :) shame it's a 1992.

Nic - i'd love to come help but every night this week i'm getting punched in the face instead.

be honest - which of you would forgo your cefiros for a gloria?

personally i would in a heart beat ... they're getting pretty cheap now too.. maybe if the cefiro sells i might be in the market for one.. who knows..

four doors rule..

cimas are too bulky. laurels are too old.. gloria - looks sporty and classy at the same time. and as you can see there. they're fkn badass. interior is like sex (well what i've HEARD about sex at least - never had it myself, wouldn't know)

There are some Cefiro's getting around in Perth that came in under SEVS.

That pearl pink one, is a 91 or 92, SEVS (somehow), imported a few years ago....just look up old stock on the Imports101 website.

I'd love a C35 Laurel if they were pillarless. Factory manual, with leather trim, and a sunroof. I'd do things for that experience.....bad things.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
