Results from my Rust Removal :D

Pretty happy with the turnout...it's much better than it was but I just couldn't get that bottom left corner clean... There was so much rust the initial batch of CLR just went brown and foamy, I had to clean it out and re-apply.

But, pretty happy with the results.

Well it's going to be smaller, cheaper jobs like this for a while.

Contemplating clay-barring the car in an attempt to remove some of the stains from the paint. Never used clay before and I'm not sure if it'll do what I want... any advice?

I'm shit at all those cleaning sort of jobs I'm afraid.

I'm always worried I'll do it wrong and cause more long term harm than good i.e paint swirls, scratches etc.

I personally get a very relaxing, sense of joy when cleaning my vehicles.

i'm far from a professional, but after watching Larry's videos and following his advice, I improved ten fold.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
