Fitted el-cheapo Aerotwin wiper blades at $12/pair - love them! The true test will be whether or not they last...
Also fitted a new DIN65 battery. Old battery was purchased September 2006 so not too shabby...
After replacing the battery, I suddenly wished I had reset the ECU at the beginning of winter - I would have thought the ECU would have adjusted automatically by now, but since changing the battery over and effectively resetting the ECU, I got in the car and was taken by absolute surprise about 10mins into the drive when I gave it a little and the car sudddenly launched itself ferociously.. Feels great now!
PS. With all this cold weather and the FMIC, I am getting 8 degree celsius intake temperatures some nights =D The best part about the FMIC is that the intake temperature is peaking at about 28 degrees when under boost. Before FMIC, it was easily reaching above 50 degrees under boost. Enjoy the cold fellas
car looks p0rn mate

15,000 km :|
Decided that the new gearbox will have a Nissan input shaft spline (the weird Astra spline is to hard to match) and I'm going keep the 5.5" AP Racing twin plate clutch I have which has Nissan splines.
So now I have to get a new flywheel and will have a Courtenay lightened flywheel and custom heavy duty clutch with 150km's that I will have to sell...
