It does sound more "refined" now. A little quiter at lower speed and more crisp once you stamp on the loud pedal. The DV also sounds much better too, more crisp with more of a metalic sound :)

Realy worth the price for the filter ;)

Just picked up my dog bone mount bush from the post office :) I'll put it into the actual dog bone mount when I'm at work on Sat (also find out my fate on Sat too :()

You might be getting made redundant, and your going to do some work to your car while your there :lol:

Sorry about the job situation, but I hope you see the funny side of that

I kinda meant from the other point of view - if your so busy that your fitting bits to the car, then you could see why they're making you redundant.

If it turns out your one of a team who MAY be getting made redundant, I'd want to be showing that I was the one they needed the most ;-)

Thats not so bad then. I went through all this a year ago, and I was one of the 'lucky' ones who didn;t go.

Then they closed my office 6 months later :lol:

Good luck with the job hunting

It went better than I expected.
There are 2 positions being made redundant but 1 new position is being created. So it looks like its going to be 1 out of the 2 of us :shrug:

Next meeting is Monday afternoon. Should know everything by then.


You mean this bush :D

Thanks Alex :)

Just used a bench vice mate. Very easy, only took a few mins. Hardest part was kutting the old buch out.

Toyo Proxi's on the rear and just cheap crappy ones on the front that were on when I got the car in 2007 :blink:

Planning on killing them at the track day next month so I can get some new ones.
