Two new Yoko AD08 front tires fitted, as the Nankang's were too loud.
You have the NS2-R before these then? Aside from the noise how would you rate them?

The NS2-R were pretty good in the dry, and okay on a wet road, but the sound of them drove me insane.

Finally got my LCR fault code free!
When I bought the car the traction light was permenantly on. Turns out it was the steering angle sensor being one full turn off.
The last code which I sorted today was egt sensor failure. Managed to remove the old one no ramp etc and fit a new one. Had to relocate the black box but all good. Cleared the codes, took the car out for a good drive and rescanned with the vagcom no codes.
Best bit is no hit the wall feeling on WOT gear changes. Ie no fuel dumping now.
Also cleaned up and relaquered my pink brembos, look like new again!

Passed MOT. replaced CV Gaitor. swapped front springs to Vogtland from my KONI setup and stuck on LCR Top mounts
Since it was a nice day I wash both mine & the Mrs cars. Then a bit more attention to mine was needed - decided to clean up and repaint my front calipers. I'd bought Por15 black caliper kit ages ago and never got round to it but it was east-peasy
First cleaned caliper with wire brush to remove all crap and sprayed with caliper cleaner:
Then washed with caliper prep - sorry didn't take a photo but safe to say it's just like a degreaser. Washed this off with water and dried then coated with rust preventative:
After 30mins (or when the coating is tacky touch dry, it was time for the first of 2 coats of the caliper paint:
I wasn't sure about the "Porsche" stickers but as the calipers were from a Boxster then it would be rude not to, eh
Took the time to clean the inside of the wheels while they were off, they weren't too bad actually
So hopefully the weather will hold up tomorrow and I'll do the rears
