Heldenzeit's Garage (Endless Maintenance)

Guise I has an idea.

lol, that's horrible and awesome at the same time

Upon further inspection, it seems to be an R32. Oh Japan.

Wait a minute, that looks nothing like an early 00s Golf.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Everything shares the Golf chassis.

 

[Downhill Dino]

They never cease to amaze. Stupid awesome.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Wow this car is pretty when clean. I've already driven it 1000 miles.

 

[ildd]

I'm an idiot

 

[Heldenzeit]

I bought a clay bar kit last week and was finally able to use it today after all the rain. I didn't quite get the results I wanted, and the difference isn't very noticeable, but it did help and the paint is definitely smoother.

Lol brake rust

Nice! I have a friend with a buffer that is going to help me clean it up even better. The pic is just from a basic wash.

Oh **** I thought this was the post a pic of your car thread

Did another track day. This time it was pretty miserable, as it was over 100*F ambient. Car ran well with no overheating issues at all.

 

[LeadFootLiam]

Looks sweet. I'd love to track my car this year but time is running out!!

 

[Heldenzeit]

I got the chance to work on both cars last night. Ended up trying on both rear wheels on one side. The new wider front fills the flare better, but I dont think the bumper will clear. Maybe I should order 2 more Wats of this size...

Changed the corner markers to clear. Looks much nicer.

Lexus actually painted this bolt amber to match.

Much better.

Needs amber bulbs though I think.

 

[Heldenzeit]

I want this grille. Saving for later.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

I have always liked clear lights. Converted my entire Camaro to clear lights and SMD/LED. Also yes that grille will look a lot better. Are you planning to install amber turn signal bulbs? The bulbs look white in the pic.

It has white bulbs now, I'll change to amber.

Placed a deposit for a new set of headlights by Jetstream. These should work a lot better than the lights I have currently. I'll be able to do night time track days!

 

[Downhill Dino]

No glass/lexan/whatever over it? Must reduce unnecessary drag! But they do look cool, reminds me of a few FC RX7 headlights.

I'll either fabricate something or modify my old ones. It does need covers!

 

[homeforsummer]

I actually really like the look of those, but they'll never be pop-ups

 

[Cale]

Jetstream makes some awesome stuff.

 

[Cano]

They indeed remind me of some RX7 conversions. I dig.

 

[Heldenzeit]

I like them too. Probably will see them sometime in September I think.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Guys, help me find a personalised plate for the Lexus. Yamato has already been taken.

[Downhill Dino]

BB YMTO?

MUSASHI?

TEN GO?

 

[Heldenzeit]

Musashi is taken! Oh well.

I was thinking of something with the Japanese word for "prince", which is Oji. YAMIOJI (Darkness prince)?

EDIT:
TEIKOKU (admiral) is open...

 

[Heldenzeit]

Decided with Y4M4TO for the Lexus plate. Should be here in 8-12 weeks...

I should get a tassel like the one shes wearing around her neck to hang from the rear view mirror.

 

[homeforsummer]

The tassel wasn't exactly what caught my eye when I scrolled down the page to see what people were talking about.

She has a large fuel capacity.

She has great personalitities.
