Update:
Touch up paint
Washer pump looked at
Manifold blow looked at

Yesterday I went and got some touch up paint for my car, I have a small but rather deep scratch on the back of my car, so yeah thats the reason for the change from "Silvarrr" to "Quartzz" as I now know the color code name aha
but yeah thought I would show you

Today however I was meant to have work, BUT i got to work and they said go home its your day off which I forgot so got some major bits done and looked at by my brothers mechanic friend

My car has been making a squeaky/high pitch rub type noise from my driver side front wheel, so we got down and had a look what the problem could be, he suggested earlier in the week it could be the disc gathering dust or the driveshaft, he was right it was the driveshaft gaiter had torn so we temporarily fixed it with soem tie wraps (which previous owner did just new one) and alot of grease.
Not really got any pictures of major bits of it but I got a few of it up on the ramps and us looking at it aha but thats all

We then got onto the next job which wa my windscreen washer pump. The reason why I didnt attempt this was because my arch liner was connected to a rusted bit and if I pull it off it would make a semi big gap under the arch, but he put it up on the ramp and looked at it and pulled out the plug that was blocked and LOTS of stinky/coloured water came out, we then tried putting more water in but still no luck, he suggested I get a new pump because the motor was okay

Then onto the next job. Iv had a blowing noise from my exhaust come from the front of my car for a while, we thought it was the manifold so we had a look, turns out we couldnt find any blowing anywhere.
IGNORE MY BIG SILLY AIR FILTER AND WHITE PIPE, I REALLY WANT A METAL PIPE AND PROPER INDUCTION KIT

Then my brother backed it off ramp while I tried to take a picture or 2

Overall I was happy with what we got done, Im now looking into getting a new gaiter, or possibly VTR/VTS New driveshaft, and a new pump and possibly next month a manifold as none of my hours have been cut like I thought they would so im happy happy happy

O yeah mate it did look like poo, just looked like I had colored over the scratch basically, got told I should possibly fill it but thats takes time and I then have to spray and cant be asked tbh, rather deep scratch actually though, their is a picture of it above on like page 1 I think

Cracking thread mate, its great to see what can be done to a furio without lowering, and still looks outstanding

Cheers mate

and yeah been thinking about lowering it but to expensive for budget I have. Do you have a progress thread mate?

stevo67 · 10th February 2012, 15:35

Very nice car mate,the only thing i`d do is clean up the underside then,underseal it.

iFurio · 23rd February 2012, 22:50

Update:
De-wipered

Not updated in a while

But got round to doing couple more things, not much though
I eventually got round to touching up my scratches with the touch up paint, looks good

Also done what alot of people say and de-wiper, at first I thought this was a stupid idea and what was the point but now ive done it I am actually happy with how it looks tbh
Before: (O also the new sticker/badge what I got free with the "nosey cunt" badges, say "sticky fingers" I think, advertising the website)

Done:

Iv noticed my exhaust has been dropping abit
Would this be due to the rubber mounts wearing? or something else?
and
How do I go about removing the circle on the window near the grommit? Its the outline for the wiper, tried washing it but its actually in the glass? Anyone else have the same problem?

iFurio · 28th February 2012, 23:14

Updates:
Rear tinted light
Angel eyes

My niece helping me mask them, looking grumpy because I stole my phone back

One light finished

EVENTUALLY got some Angel eyes, they were so easy to wire up, didnt have to cut any of my existing wires, because of a way the original owner wired them. They were 2nd hand, clip broken but other than that really good condition

Wired them up today and didnt get them done till late so will get some better pics tomorrow

GazWatson · 29th February 2012, 13:06

I like the back tail lights and angel eyes

I also cleaned out under my front/rear arches, for mud, and trying to get it cleaner for the torsion lowering. Havnt got before pics, only got after. This will prob get really bad again but for now I was pleased to see that the under arch was not rusting ect

Doneee

Stuart85VTR · 12th March 2012, 22:00

Really good progress, just read the thread. I would have kept the rear lights standard but everyone is different and angel eyes look mint. You lowering the rear by 35mm as well?
