Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

The cashier said that everyone who bought the Alum. polish loved it and gave it at least a 9 out of 10. I use it on rims, sidings, everything! It works so well and it smells like a pack of cinnamon gum.

I give it 11/10 !!!

It's really good stuff!

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

May be a bit though, may not attempt it myself. It's a 3 point brace, so my most of the stuff in the cowl area has to be taken off, things measured and drilled and so on. May just have it installed later when I can save up some more $$. It does have some scuffs, but I was thinking maybe re-powdercoating it before I put it on. Still like how shiny your intake is now though!

Thanks.Good luck with your setup.I love powder coating.

I've put that aside today,as I was cleaning the engine bay.15year old car and didn't use it during the winter left a lot of spots on the aluminium block,gearbox and throttle body/intake pipes.Been cleaning with WD40 and some steel wool.Works okay,but is very time consuming.Can't get Gunk here?,but have bought Castrol goods.Excellent results but expensive.Once I upload some pics,I'll upload a pic of these products.Used them last year aswell.One is a degreaser,similair to Gunk and the other is a Degreaser for metal and plastics.Both products are aimed at the motorcycle line.The foamy/soapy one is called greensomething?Can't remember.But is really good.Need to work away tomorrow aswell!

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

Going to go and pick up a Kenny Brown 3 point front strut tower brace for the Mustang in the morning. Only $50! Painted though, lol. No polishing for me. Only pieces left to be had is a rear STB and sub frame connectors. Then I will have a fully "built" suspension on the car.

50$'s Cool! Show some pics,once you've got it on.

At the time when i bought my strut and DAC,I was going to powder coat,the same as my rocker cover..Saves any polishin' !

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

Not worried about the price; I only mod when I can actually afford it. My concern was almost being pulled over multiple times by CHP just idling at a stop.

Buying good stuff is the right way.Shopping around helps.Probably the best setup for Honda is Mugen,Jun's and Spoon,but costs a packet.I shopped around and got Invidia.It's really good and costs less than those,but I reckon they will be better.By how much..?

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

That's the other thing with your engine,compared to mine.It's twice the amount of plumbing.So the cost will be more.

I'm the same.I like a good sports sound,but not to loud.

All the little things tied up together with the other mods. make the biggest difference.I even found that my Denso Irridiums make a good difference.

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

I had Magnaflows on it, as they were the "factory" muffler for the Roush exhaust system. Too quiet. I am currently running SpinTechs. That, coupled with my X pipe that was only on the car for a week due to how loud it was (could be heard about 2-5 miles away when I got on it, depending on the time of day) was pretty nice, but too loud. I do want a full system though. Headers, high flow catted h-pipe, with my current mufflers would be good for me. I already have a CAI for it, though I don't think they give you that much HP. That would be one of the best "bang for your buck" mods in that case...

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

I just want a strut brace....

But I know some K & N stuff works. All I changed was the air filter and my gas mileage went up

Was it a replacement panel filter? It really shuldn't make a noticable difference.

Was the performance any better?


My strut brace is Eibach.If it's for your Subaru,check out DC Sports.They're an american co.,so shouldn't be a problem.My DC stuff was ordered from the states.Check out their website.They make real cool stuff.I've got some brochures,but they are specific to Honda,so not much use to you.Their strut's are really cool.

You'll have loads to choose from today.

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

Yeah,In reality,as far 'bolt-ons go,the header + good exhaust system makes the best improvement.Once you add all the other things in and tie them all together,then you see an improvement.

Most dynos report a 5-7hp increase with a really good and well designed air intake.

If you're interested in headers/exhaust systems,I think magnaflow might be the way to go for your car.As i said before,DC Sports are of excellent quality and is all properly dynotested,but I don't know if they make only for japanese imports?

If you do some tuning let me know how you get on Andy.

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

Holy moly! they looked brand spankin new

Re: Hot Rims Mag & Aluminium Polish

Dang, looks better than new! Nice job! Ram air would only work up to a point though. Probably not worth the cost on a relatively stock car IMO.
