Flushed coolant and full service. Still have to wait for the morning to bleed the coolant system more as gwr exhaust is loud. Washed and cleaned out now too.

Trying to work out what to price it for to sell now sadly. I didn't see any other 2.5 nc's go for sale so I have no idea.

Will mostly depend on the mileage and condition compared to any similar year cars for sale. The 2.5 upgrade may or may not add a little, depending on finding the right buyer who knows how much that upgrade adds to the car. The crazy increases in most vehicle values of the past couple of Covid years appear to be waning, so you may have missed the boat there. GLWS.

So last 3 weeks is still "recent" right
Installed some foil insulation under the carpet. It didn't reduce the heat as much as I was hoping, but it doesn't feel like it's going to burn me every time I going for a long drive . It did reduce road noise a little, which was a nice bonus.

Installed the short shifter, replaced upper and lower rubbers as they were torn.

Swapped in a cheap android auto head unit, turns out the center console is a good place to store/charge the phone.

Swapped in some metal scuff plates and chrome airvents.

And put about 1000 km on it.. given I only did about 6k last year on my old daily, I think I might like it lol.

Long time no see youse Still here.

I went to Morgan park a couple of weeks ago. It was raining. Bewdy I thought a chance to practice a bit of slip.

Newp I basically drove so slow it didn't break traction. I'm still too worried about breaking it

Nice concrete.

I'll do more of a writeup for my build thread, but the Powertune dash installation is progressing nicely. The double-DIN blanking plate is cut, and just need some washers to mount and install the dash in the centre console.

The next trick will be to program it, it is already connected to the Link and the default display is working. I need to find a good block of time (maybe mote than one ) to build the display I want, I need to find more time to re-install the oil cooler, remote filter and connect the oil pressure/temperature sensors to the auxiliary harness, install a coolant pressor sensor (probably just a binary (warning light) one not a real gauge sensor. The installation of that will happen at the same time as the ditching of the pretend oil cooler (warmer?) the factory fitted.
