Do the Hustle!!!

Turns out my oil temp works just fine as I did hook it to the sensor but the car didn't get warm enough to register.

1000 @ 100km / hr on the highway. Now to get my water sensor adapter on... :)

Its sad that you know what the Hustle is mate.....Oh wait....So do I.

Drove her to work. New rubber is fantastic.

On a less positive side: One of my wheels has chipped the paint off it, anyone know roughly what price/where i can get slight gutter rash fixed, and fresh paint on all four?

Finally got around to fitting a factory ac thermo fan. took a while to get the intercooler to line up right and its mounted a little lower and its tight but its better than no thermo fan :P

It has a bit of a miss after sitting for almost three months. Hoping its just plugs or something simple.

There used to be a whole thread on this subject .... Not so long ago. ... With some good tips.

Wicked Wheels, Rallimax, Craved Coatings etc...

Finally purchase a new front bumper. Any places that do good installation jobs? No idea if the previous owners screwed with the front of my car or not to put my current bumper on.

bought $150 worth of meguairs products, as i finished all of mine of prepping a car for a wedding on the weekend. The car (2005 C320 Merc) cleaned up better than i would have thought, was told that it looked like it had just rolled out from factory!

So overall very happy. Unfortunately won't get a chance to detail this weekend as im booked out the whole time.

GTR needs some love atm....

Also got some new vacuum lines and a few other bits and peices to tidy the engine bay up.

Oh and the stickers arrived for my wheels last night. Will test fit tonight.

Bryce just finished installing stockie suspension in Rosie - I feel like I'm driving on clouds haha. Absolute Legend. May have to fit Stockie wheels as the front is a bit low.

Cheers Bryce, ya legend.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
