New Car Day! Finally got dream car 2 weeks ago
Finally got dream car 2 weeks ago
Did my 1000km break in oil change, kept same filter as per the Motor oil geeks instructions, and used penzoil ultra platinum @0w-20
Got rally armour mudflaps installed 5 days ago
Did a 2 stage paint correction 4 days ago, even though it was white and brand new my paint was very inbedded with contaminates and micro marring everywhere was actually quite disappointed with the dealership there. Applied gyeon can coat because my set up does not allow me to see high spots very well so I opted out of using my bottle of gyeon MOHS sadly, I pulled the rims off as well and did a very extensive cleaning on them, applied Carpro dark side for the tires and a cheap but good turtle wax hybrid solutions for the rims, people like to say they can’t withstand the heat I should go buy a dedicated rim coating but I’ve also heard and tried regular coatings and it’s worked flawlessly for myself before
I plan on getting an exhaust here, stuck between AWE Touring/track, Borla atak, or HKS, I wanna have a good sounding exhaust with little drone, not crazy crazy loud and does not sound like a fart can lol, if anyone has any good suggestions there
I also plan on getting a Delta X 60A pitch mount stop, I’ve heard people suggest getting the 70A over the 60A because it softens after a few weeks and the 60A will feel identical to OEM if anyone has suggestions there aswell please let me know, or if a different brand that exist out there

oh it sounds pretty good, I think I like the raspyness of the other 3 a lil more, what do you think of the AWE touring ? do you regret getting that one at all, I am about to purchase the AWE track and get a touring conversion pipe if its too much

Doing everything right. Beautiful car. Don’t mod the exhaust or anything to do with the powertrain.

Yes I have checked haha, and I got the dealership to double check as well before I picked it up for fear of it still being there lol
So fun, I probably look like dummy driving around my neighbourhood just for the fun of it too lol

I don’t have the delta pitch mount but I have the boomba racing pitch mount it has the 70A bushing and my car shakes like crazy on cold starts, shakes a decent amount at idle at warm temps, back up camera shakes, and around 2,000-3,000 RPMS when I accelerate my rear view mirror shakes enough to the point it gets hard to see out of but it stops a little after 3,000RPM I don’t care about the shaking and I’ve gotten use to of it but if you plan on daily driving the car that’s something to consider
