Gave it a good wash all over and noticed a LOT of dried oil on the drivers side wheel. Checked levels and they were low but nothing major. Looks like our old friend the oil leak is back.
Getting it tuned soon too, finally.

Changed gearbox oil. Wasn't too hard a job, certaintly nothing like changing it on the F23 gearbox @bpoin007! Thanks again for bringing your car around to give me the motivation to actually go out and do something haha.
Oil thant came out was aalmost like a melted Cadbury chocolate bar but looked metallicy, 2.4ish liters came out and 2.4ish went back in.
Next step dial up the boost from 17-20psi. :P
You need a new avatar thing as well :P
Also used this tyre shine spray my girlfriend got me as part of a car cleaning thing for Xmas.
Came out a treat; tyres look great and you can use it on the black plastic bits to give them a bit more shine. Not sure what it is, maybe some kind of silicone-y deal.
Deep breath....

Not a big drop but it looks sweet.
Handling improvement is 1 billion times better than before, feels flat and responsive. Super happy :-D
Performed some weight reduction on the SRi, ie cleaned all the crap out of it. It's amazing how much crap you have left over from working on the doors alone. Passenger door mirror glass just fell out too, so I have ordered a replacement. Love having electric mirrors and windows in it now though, although I'm still missing that driver's side door handle surround that holds the mirror switch in it and I have no intention of paying $60 to get one shipped from the UK. Might be time to bring out the Dremel.
Put new headlight globes in, one popped on a weekend drive. Sucks.
Washed it
