:icon17: yah, i hear aquapel is good stuff. ive only tried rain-x and even that
works real well in a down pour.

i like rain-x's cleaning properties. like if i have water stains from a sprinkler,
rain-x and a papertowel will remove that. also to prevent wiper hop.

Plugs with less than 3000 mi, but victim of previous valve cover leak. Dealer didn't want to change plugs this time under warranty, so I said F...u and it.

iggylist updated! :mad: ;)

Washing the car today and gonna start claying tonight and tomorrow. Gonna take it nice and slow. One panel at a time.

Will apply a nice coating of rain-x as well :)

that's a good idea. i too only do a section at a time these days on my dd's.

First oil change coming tonight. Thanks to the AK DIY I have all the right kind of stuff, except for the oil. I'm using different oil. And I didn't get the copper crush washer. OBE because, um...

What brand of oil should I use? :ugh2:

you need the oil for this DIY...:ugh2:

and your question is going to get this thread locked! :mad:

I'll also be trying out a new set of ramps to see if I can munge up the front lip.

Full on with roll bars and superturbocharger.

They be hellaflush!

:tup:

:confused:

67 inch XT Car service ramps

was wondering if our cars can go up using the 56?

Two Piece 56 inch Car Service Ramps

For real no pics? I guess because I have them in blocked folder in albums.

Ah...no not raceramps. These look cool though. I got these

Amazon.com: RhinoGear 11909 RhinoRamps Vehicle Ramps (Pair, 12,000lb. GVW Capacity): Automotive

yah, i cant see them. :ugh: oh well.

chances are good that its best i DONT see them. :icon17:

yah, you'll probably need to make extensions.

i have the regular gray rhino ramp + wood extensions i made. it's not bad,
just not fancy like them raceramps i want in my garage.

Check out this vid.

*Edit* Mute button....

thanks! :tup:

but i think my ings+ might scrape it on the front side... not so much the bottom.

Just undo that layer in photoshop :icon17:

:rofl2:

Mmmm, bummer. Oh well. I can live with $45.00 ramps and some extensions I guess. Those raceramps are the high priced spread. I especially like the look of the two-piece ramps.

yah, they are.

i have 2 sets of flatstoppers from them and they are of high quality. this is
why ive been wanting that 2pc 56 for a while... but the thing is, my current
setup works just fine, so... :icon17: actually provides MUCH MORE clearance
than the 56 to air deflector.

Did you do the DIY for the helpers? I thought I saw one on here somewhere.

i had posted pictures at one time, but something happened a few years back which pissed me off enough to delete them all. :mad:

so no, i dont have any picts. :D

on mine i took some scrap oak planks and made the extensions to cover
about 1/2 to 3/4 way up the rhino ramp with supports underneith.

the extensions are then screwed down to the rhino while in use. it's a very
effective extension all made by hand.... i dont have a power saw or sander. :ugh:

Well, we will see how it goes tonight. I have the wood around to make it work.

Finished installing my Polk components (db6501) and Alpine power pack amp (KTP-445U) - so happy I ditched the stock speakers! This amp is seriously awesome too - fits behind the headunit and taps into the factory wiring for so you don't need to run a separate power cable (and puts out 90w RMS x 2 at that!)

Polk audio...............
:ugh2:

polkaudio is good stuff. for the price 6501's are the best components out there imo as far as sound and ease of installation. i run them in my G.

Polk audio is my last step after almost 4 years of mods and improvements..
:tiphat:

oh... i c. i think you're going to like those speakers. if i ever decide to swap my Z's speakers out,
it will be the db6501's for sure. but ive been pretty happy with just the AVH-4500BT's eq and
processors. :D

I have been following this thread on the forum. It is a great place to
collect all the needed research and opinions before spending any money.
:hello:

I was going to go for the MM6501's but decided to go a bit cheaper. Maybe one day I'll upgrade, but with the stock headunit I don't know if I should go much further right now.

i think you will be happier getting an aftermarket HU next vs getting better speakers for your stock radio. :D

especially the pioneers have a real nice EQ...

I truly hate the look of most aftermarket HUs, which is why I'm sticking with stock. Blaupunkt makes pretty OEM looking units for a really good price, just not high on my priority list :-)

that's odd... my pioneer doubledin looks factory finish in my ride. :D
even the button illumination colors are set to amber/red to match.

and steering wheel controls work, so does rear view camera.

Damn that made me really want those RaceRamps..but I'd scrape way to hard LOL would have to extend with wood.. would make all fluid changed a breeze..diff, trans, engine..

there is a longer version of the 56 though with even less slope.
