Did some maintenance - Thanks to all that contribute to the DIY section or point us in the right direction.
1. Brake Bleed(last week)
2. Clutch Slave Bleed (finished the job today)
3. Replaced the Serpentine belt
4. Cabin Filter
5. Cleaned K&N filter and engine compartment
Hope to do the spark plugs next week and maybe tackle the gear oil after that. It's amazing how affordable the components are - now if I could get a deal on tires I would be set

i just installed my side bolster protectors that i bought from member Sean (YSeanY).
Excellent solution to extend the life of the leather. In the photos they look slightly different color but in the naked eye they match the black leather almost perfectly.
I also got a headrest protector for the driver's side to protect it from the helmet and a possible Hans device in the future...
Very pleased!

Nice day to take Pcar out here in Chicago.
Got pulled over for speeding though. The officer let me off with a warning. It helped he was a local town officer and he'll be seeing me again. :+)
I explained I just opened her up for a short burst and didn't realize 20 mph over could happen so fast. The truth. The officer said he could understand but I needed to watch out for pockets of water. He asked about the 200 mph speedo. How cool.

Well I just used Chemical Guys V36 cutting polish followed by V38 finishing polish and topped that off with their Lava Wax. I'm more than happy with the results, very little swirls that I had are all gone. Paint looks flawless.
