I almost always detail before a long trip. Having a fresh coat of wax on there makes it easier to clean up afterwards.


This. It would be impossible for you to be missing the oil filter housing.

That was the second place to tell me the same thing... "Ummm...something is missing..."
I have been putting about 3 quarts in inbetween oil changes.
Whether it makes sense or not, why would two totally seperate places tell me the same thing if it was not missing? Either way, I'm being reimbursed by the dealershit I bought from.

If you climb under your car and look, you'll understand why it makes sense. The housing holds the filter in place. Without the housing, the filter would just fall off. With no filter in place, oil would be just pumped onto the ground. Your engine would be completely void of oil in almost no time, and burn up & seize shortly after. Of course 3 quarts is a huge amount, so you're obviously losing some somewhere, I just fail to see how it could be the actual oil filter housing. Maybe they mean something else when they say that.

It's a hybrid he made

Yeah, custom bumper I made from 3 donor bumpers. 2 B7 S-Line ones and 1 B8 S-Line.

I made sure the S4 lower inserts and splitter would fit, and I also wanted it to sit a bit lower than the B7 one so had to fabricate new corner sections where the wheel arch meets the bumper line (hence the second B7 bumper). Took me a while to get right

Just got to fit my FMIC and get the fogs in - there's no room at the moment.

Here's another pic of the rear end...



I have some A8 rings, but I'm not 100% sure about putting them on.

I was all about the badge on the boot before, but now it's all smooth, I quite like it!

[COOCOOKAL]

Would just fall right out.

[Rodmar]

Good news....Podi Gauge ordered

[nfoman]

Thanks to the recommendations of others bought the ST Coilovers. Will post pic when installed... hopefully next week.

Thats exactly what I thought, so I thought the valvoline I had to hit the first time was full of shit when they said it was missing. I don't doubt something could have been wrong, but when I took it to the local dealership they said something was gone too, handed me the invoice, I paid it and walked off annoyed. I figured they just meant something else. I wasn't saying that it didn't make sense, I understand what it is and what it does, I just don't understand how it was missing, how I drove without it, wth they were even meaning, I just walked out and left. Then their carwash ripped my dipped wheels. Wonderful day yesterday haha. "fuck, should have just painted them.."

[Rodmar]

Just realized I forgot the PODI code for free shipping 20 wasted dollarrrrrssssssss....

[Salt n Peppa]

I understand what it is and what it is for. I'm guess they meant something else, because there is NO way that would work. And I've been under the car several times since I've bought it, I would noticed a damn bare filter just hangin out.

Congrats man! I just bought a house about a month ago. Its pretty exciting, you must be happy!

[A-BlacK_MambA-4]

@Rodmar, looking good man. If AWE exhuast arrives tomorrow, looks like a weekend job for you my friend

[Rodmar]

LOL got Eurowerks to go to this weekend, but still would love to get it on saturday morning after stage 2 revo tune friday night

[felondnb]

I fitted a CX Racing FMIC but now I have bumper fitting issues with my custom bumper

[Operator]

Looks like the issue I had when I tried to install the TR6 and the RAI (initially) FMIC. ou need the in/out ports to angle back. Like the AWE and Racetec. Not sure how the CTS one fits.

[felondnb]

Here it is without the bumper:



You're right, if the ports were angled back it should clear another inch or two, allowing the bumper and trims to go on properly. I wonder if I can get them bent back somehow without affecting the performance?

[Rodmar]

Gratz Felon, hope ya get it figured out thats the next thing on my list to do


Got the AWE exhaust today. took 2 and half days from FL to SD, quickest shippng ive ever seen and I paid the cheapest one lol.

[felondnb]

^^^ I like the look of that - what size are the exhaust tips?

In a couple of months I want a nice cat-back system

[Rodmar]

3.5in if I remember right plus it said that on the box the tips came in lol

[Rodmar]

Forgot this pic lol....make that TURBOBACK=

[yungcotter]

^^^Is that all the pieces you got with the exhaust because your missing the mid pipe.

[Salt n Peppa]

That's worse than Plastidamage! I hope it all gets sorted out!

[cbbepop]

OOOO more info please
which HUD you using?

[stupdfresh]

Just got the new shoes put on. Love it.

[A-BlacK_MambA-4]

^^^I like that you couldn't wait to put your other wheels away or at least close the trunk before you had to take a pic of it

Looks good BTW! Now clear corner it and get rid of that orange bumper reflector.

[crazytex21]

i broke 80,000 miles today. damn.

RAI's were angled just enough, along with some trimming to fit my DTM. The Racetec is the cheapest full kit option. You could also look into the Scion IC core made by Treadstone.

[DRAKLORE]

Congrats Jibantes!
Clutch should be there soon :)

Wish I was going to waterfest :/
Thanks for all the personal invites though!

[jrtrainor]

Rs4 shifter went in tonight. Thanks to europrice for the raffle prize.

[jrtrainor]

Picked up a sweater for Draklore hahaha.

[DRAKLORE]

He laughs, but I'm going to wear it and walk around public uncomfortably close to him, flipping my wrist and calling him "gurlfren" and saying things like "get out of here" "no way" "totally"....

Haha

[jibatnes]

Thanks all :) Looking forward to move out of the big city yes. :)

Did reach this many kilometers today :)
