back in the paint shop
back in the paint shop. when i had my car painted it was fine but after a monthor two a few tiny micro blisters. we recone the blissters were caused by a solvent attack on two very diff paints that were not left long enough to dry between coats, and that caused a tiny bit of mouister that was traped to work its way to the surface in form of a tiny microblister. any way as promised im painting the bonnet orange to as well as the front valance. pics to follow soon.

What did you do to your zed today?

Carbon Canister removal done?
just dont like clutter and things in the way when working on me car. like a bit of space, becides i might be putting the oil cooler there as its a good cooling spot because of my front end. the less stuff thats over enginered that you dont need ,and of course less stuff to produce boost leaks ect. theres a few more deleates ill be doing soon enough. the next one will be my hicas deleat. compleatly gone and to be replaced with a na rear end thats sitting over at Marks place ready to be done. All that other rubbish under the wings will be gone soon enough. she will be declutted soon enough.

Carbon Canister removal done?
Here are some pics of my carbon canister that i removed today but need to ask a question. that is? on the removal guide it says to do what ive done in the pics, but it says in the guid im sure to leave the pipes open and not caped of.the pic of the pipe with blue tape on is there to show you what pipe i mean.this pipe when the car is running has a huge amount of suction/ vacume on it. question is should i blank it off or leave it sucking?

Thoughts on this FMIC?
yes it does to me. 1 if your not going for big big bhp numbers , ie over the 500 mk. then dont need. 2 if you have a standered front bumper then looks wise pointless because you woulnt get the cooling benifet of one stuck behind a standerd bumper ,whitch brings me onto unless u have a kit at the front with a large whole for the air to cool through it again pointless, and again why would you put a large fmic infront of theair con rad, so the cooling air has to go through the fm then the air con rad by witch time i should think theres no point trying to cool whats left to go threw the rad.if u get me.
-
Thoughts on this FMIC?
if i was going to leave my aircon rad in then i wouldnt have considered putting in a fmic but i did get rid of that and upgraded the oil cooler to.and if your not looking to gain over the 500 bhp mark then dont bother unless you have a kit that needs somthing there, cas without it would look silly in my opion
