Replace the oil plug with a drain valve at the first change.

Not sure if they make a drain valve for us...if so that would be great..

Thanks I will give it a try.

I like your resonator delete.

I like your resonator delete.

Thanks..that's how it started....went in for a simple delete, came out with some Kooks Long Tubes, X pipe and tune....its just plain nasty now.

When I got mine home I did the following
Blast with pressure washer
Foam with pressure washer
Wipe with good mitt
Rinse with pressure washer
Dry
Clay bar
Rinse
Wax
Detail spray

Took about 4 hours.
I only wash by hand since then.

That's intense! I bet the results are outstanding. I've never used a pressure washer for car cleaning before. With foaming, is that a simple attachment to the washer? Any brand suggestions for your mitt, wax and detail spray? Also does anyone use anything for dust clean up in between washes? I've heard some can be nasty on the paint.

Thanks!

The foam gun is attached to a pressure washer. When rinsing I use the mildest tip.
Check out Chemical Guys. Lots of products and good videos.

Removed the clutch spring

Removed the clutch spring

I recall during my test drive, the clutch felt really bizarre. Very soft and springy. Will the removal of said spring give a more realistic feel?

I like it much better, with the spring in it just felt uneven.

Good to know. Is it a simple removal?

Yup, just push the clutch in all the way with one hand and pop it out with the other. 30 seconds.

Took me all of 2 minutes, press clutch pedal in with left hand, while holding slide out spring with right hand.
