What did you do to your Aussie S550 today..

[DFB5.0]

Gave her a bubble bath today. It's not exactly a DBF5.0 spec detail but it is good enough for a rough guy like me.

Looking good, I approve!

That is a good coverage of foam Wolfgang. What product are you using.

Has everybody's avatar become distorted with the site refresh that was done. Might be time to do a new one.

Thanks, that is the exactly what I use but it slips off fairly quickly.

Ceramic coat?

Ceramic coat?

Yes.

I've noticed the foam tends to slide off more on coated cars than non-coated. @-Armoured- hey Wolfgang did you get yours coated?

Yep. IGL kenzo coating. It does run a bit compared to the "family" mazda cx5 which is not coated.

I do however double the dose of snow foam concentrate that what is recommended by Bowdens to overcome this.

Well now the truth comes out. Might have to up my concentration.

Had the Steeda lateral link with raised ball joint + bumpsteer correction installed. Note the gap (above blue ring) that is the roll centre correction that compensates for the lowering springs. Alignment done too of course.

Looking forward to driving the car more to judge the real difference but already I can feel car tracks very true and is more relaxed along suburban roads.

Update after some hill driving on the weekend. The car definitely feels lighter, more agile. I'm less busy mid-corner and feel like I have more options if I need to adjust my line half way through the turn. I think I'm really feeling the benefits of all the mods combined, especially the RLCA bearing + this latest steering change. Together with the torque increase from the LTH and tune, the car feels equally more relaxed but eager as needed.

As far off-road as I dare to take the Mustang.

At least I have an excuse to wash it tomorrow.

You are such a risk taker :-)

It does look idyllic though.

Ha, look how outrageously pristine it is. I call photoshop. Or it was trailered there and unloaded for the photo.

Yeah. This looks suspicious:
