This is a new Porsche Turbo I did a couple weeks ago but have just got around to doing the thread now also!

This was a long 2 stage process due to the very hard paint on this car!

This car was also treated to Swissvax Crystal Rock and included an undercarriage cleanup also.

Sopme of the pics looks like a different colour due to the large amounts of different coloured mettalics different like produces a slighty different hue which is exagerated via my lights when spot checking.

Hope you enjoy.

Some before and afters, for some of you who dont know exactly what to look for or at, see the little scratches appearing in a roundish shape around the light....those are scratches and imperfections you will see in the next couple pictures these are now absent.

Thanks guys hope you enjoy.

I would also like to thank Ryan (Richard 06STI's son from the WRX CLub) for his help tidying up the car and doing some final touches prior to pick up.

Regards,

Mitch

+1 for a PM please

Are you in melbourne and actually wanting a detail?

Without sounding rude guys I seem to have alot of people PMing me all the time about how much each detail cost.

If you want a detail call me or email me and we can discuss your car and condition and give an estimate for the job.

I am sure you guys can understand how this is frustrating.

Regards,

Mitch

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
