Gh05t's 32 Gtr Daily Cleanup

[GH05T]

yeah i saw that man, right size too. might take you up on them but im thinking about putting some proper rubber on soon as she no longer dailys.

[mr_rbman]

ye I hear you.

I've run the Achilles 123s which I'm a big fan of for the price.

Have just ordered some Nankang NS2R as for the price they get a great writeup/review, time shall tell.

[GH05T]

do you plan to run the 180 or 120 TW?

Sleeka spares have the NS2r 265-35R18 180 treadwear on special for $150 each. very cheap for what they are.

give me some feedback once you've taken them for a spin, I'm getting some suspension components fitted at the same time I do my tyres so will be a little while off giving mine a run...

Same boat. I need to do brakes, swaybars and probably new coilovers too. Then i can drive fast again [emoji14]

it's a never ending cycle this modifying car business

although after this it'll become more maintenance / restoring for me...

finally got my ac sorted, swapped out the ac headunit, apparently there are more than ons size of front fascia, had to do a swapover from my old unit.

 

also used some plastic polish on the surround, brought back that satin shine

So tidy, I like it alot

Did you know if you hold down the "Lower Temperature" button for 5 seconds it goes into "FC" mode which is basically about 16 degrees..

Try it and enjoy  Also highly recommend getting the condenser fan wired up to turn on as soon as you turn on A/C.

You can also hold the "High Temperature" button for 5 seconds and that goes into "FH" (Fast Hot) mode. I used to say "Fkin Cold" or Fkin Hot" lol.

[GH05T]

huh did not know that.

also when i have the ac unit out i replaced the shitty bulbs for leds for button illumination, jesus f**king christ thats a frustrating job. the little f**kers just do not come out. they un twist and go loose, but dont just fall out. i have to destroy each and everyone one to get them out.   sooo not a fiddely kinda person.

[jmknights93]

Yeah, you just need to change the temp to 18 or 32 then hold the temp button for 5 seconds. It'll go into "FC" or "FH" mode. It's handy in summer when you want to freeze or in the winter when you need to heat the cabin up fast. If you watch the servo motor operate under the dash, you'll see just how far it moves either way.

I found it easier to remove the front face held in by 3 screws to remove those pesky globes. Massive pain in the ass though.
