    What have you done to your car lately?

    So decided to have a look why the damn shocks were clunking around... And change the brakes.
    So it turns out in my frantic hurry the last time I did the springs I put them in upside down... :-/ oops lol...
    And I slapped in some spare shocks I had that felt better than what I was pulling out.
    So then the brakes, whoever did them last out in the wrong ones because they were bigger than the rotor itself... I just don't know why I didn't notice it before.
    Now the car feels way smoother on brakes and the car has way better feel on the road.
    A small pic of the difference between the old and the new pad.

    Got the throttle cable all setup for the GSi now and refitted the Viva throttle body. Definitely a big improvement over the C16 throttle body for sure.

    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....
