Now, your F looks like a car.... :P

Keep the good work

Yesterday and today was time to apply some of the products from Europe Car Care to my F

http://store.carcareeurope.com/

I bought most things from there and they have a very good service with both dispatch/deliveries.

Aí vai:

I started to apply the polish to the glass and try my new machine from Lidl;) she save me a brave task in glasses: lalala:
The finish had to be done by hand.

Before:


The machine :


My friends on saturday:


With the polish in the windows:



Here with the Grojet in the: glass rims and paint:


After taking the Grojet by hand, i started with the machine but I pass it by hand:








Look at these reflexes:




Ups ugly shot :rotfl::


And so it was ready on Saturday.

Today was the day indoors with the aid of the vacuum / blow and a few new products for very good products.

As the car fell asleep on the street tonight and i wanted to clean the interior a little better i get to see the effect of Grojet with a wash.









Then I clean the interior with the help of this friend: right in the picture, serves to renew the interior rubber and plastic, very good.
The left is to clean on the between the applications of the one on the right.



O interior:






At Last :





I hope you like it. I was very pleased with the result.

Very shiney on the outside well done
The interiors looking really good as well, might have to treat my car to some too!

trying to compete with Howie

My topic is missing some updates i've done to my F.

Here they go.

Beautiful dont ya think?


I agree looks stunning, what do you think about tinting windows?

Thanks.

I would love it but is to expensive here in Portugal, so for now no more exterir mods.

The next mod are 2 bars (front and rear) from cusco that i bought from japan

Really fantastic Zangas

A few Updates to My F:

Change the coolant.
Change spark plugs to Nology silver ones.
Install Front/Rear Cuscos strut braces.

Some pics:













Next thing to be done is the oil change, but i'm still wainting for the Ceramic Power Liquid do mix with it.

That is a nice looking engine bay

Also it all looks quite neatly done - nice one. I like it.

After the maintenance being done by me for the first time
All is well so far

This is the first tank of fuel average in km's.

400 miles with 46 litres

The average is 7,2 pretty good because i didnt drive it in eco mode
Now it marks 253000 km's

And some pics:







Hope you like

have you thought about colour-coding your new bars?

I did... But not decided yet...

do NOT paint the coscu bars
no realy don't

i love the color this way.. i'm tinking about painting my rollcage in mij AE86 that color

Time to a big Update.

My life changed a bit since my father died, but live goes on.
As this was the favorite car he bought i have a really passion with it, and intend to keep it

That said here is the update.

After the oil change.

I have the water pump leaking changed and also the belts and tensioners from distribution and acessories + coolant In february.

Bought a panel K&N Filter Last month and de-cat it.

All i can say is that the F never runned so well much stronger.
The only thing i dislike is the noise around 2500 3500 rpm's, very raspy.


This weekend i wash it and seal it with Gorjet.

The pics:

The de-cat:



Chrome rings:



K&N:





The Heart:



Some MazdaPT Stickers:





And after sealing it:













Hope you like it.

I'm now riding on my steel wheels

Due to a hole in the road that warped two of my OZ Canova.

Now the four went to be repaired and painted...

Here he is "naked"

Steelies doesnt look that bad. Overall you got a stunning car!

Did you notice any power and, or torque boost with your Panel Filter on at all mate?

Brad

Thanks mate

Looks like kind of Gangsta Style



Not really because i've made that change when i remove my kat, that is in place again because of the raspy noise...

I did noticed some improve in the consumption...

Thank u guys 4 the comments they are appreciated...

Then i went on holidays to the south of France with it.
