I saw your pic of the monkeys and... I'm drooling. I need to learn how to correction work so my paint looks like yours. :hiQuote:

He's right, just takes time and practice. I used to be awful at correcting paint when I first started and I just got better at it and used better products as time went on. I tell you what though, once you get the hang of it you can look at someone's car and immediately tell what's wrong with it. I saw someone's car at work today (a honda pilot) and I could see hazing... I just cringed and avoided looking at the car the rest of the way inside.Quote:

i have tomorrow off as well so my plans include a good wash as well as installing the //M aluminum pedals. should be a nice day :)
ordered my parts...almost $400 worth to baby my ride with 163k+ on it. The oil filter housing started this, since i need to go fix that leak before it worsens, i'm also replacing....idler/tensioner pulleys (original), belts obviously while i'm there, and the VCG. All new rubber everwhere there's a part that's coming off.
I see a busy weekend ahead.
Josh...If your bro ever want's to sell his 86 NA 944...I'll gladly help him with the sale ;) Lots of clean cars in this thread!
Little up date on my car, Coolant light comes on every now and then. Have to add Distilled Water, but I have coolant spray on my long tube intake and on my expansion tank and on the face of my drive pulleys. I'm certain it's a pinhole leak in my radiator. I still need to find the time to have a coolant pressure test. Fan is going to be removed and radiator checked thoroughly. I really don't want to pony up for a new one...but it's still easier to replace than those damned heater hoses...
sounds like time for the dye treatment to see where it's coming from.Quote:

Ordered some rotors and pads from ray - can't wait to get them. Making some weird noises down there... I think some part of the pad is etching into the rotor, like all the time. Not just when I brake. :blink
