"What have you done to your car lately" thread

[billyAHH 12]

i have randomly seen this done in the qld thread and thought it may be a good idea for the vic section since we are always delved into the engine bay of our cars or crawled underneath our junkers to fix the unbelievable amount of crap that goes wrong, add on modifications and general good pieces of engineering we have come up with. feel free to add in pictures of what you have done, and explained what you did.

 

of course we could look at the members ride thread for the more serious builds, but why? why not just view everyone's progress all at once rather then go through those people's build thread. and im sure there are a lot of people here with imports that have no members ride thread.

the way this thread is starting out, you should probably rename the thread "what have you recently f*cked with your car" lol
