For reference, have a heap of pics with PPF in the link https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/s650-delivery-road-trip-home.162873/post-3456929
Nearly 18 months, Northern Qld Sun and heat (45 degree days), and no issues with PPF over the decals - so far so good
No panic, noted this with my DH after about 1500km (now at 15000km), as for pops and burbles, did increase, but noticed that occurs more after spirited driving and a tank of a certain brand of fuel, fitted a H pipe with Hotdogs and can't drive around town in Track mode anymore, was not aware how...
Stayed with Suncorp, did a ring around and price comparison with Shannons and Enthusiasts......but still $700-$1000 more - suncorp only put premiums up by $75 for the year...Youi said they would beat, but better T's and C's with Suncorp
Exciting day today......H with Hotdogs fitted and what a change, still has the burbles off throttle, but so much deeper and crisper, shout out to Subject 9 at Ormeau, good quality product, took about 1hr to complete on hoist, did not remove rear pipes or muffler from car, just cut out...
Just drove Gold Coast to Middlemount, on Australian 98, 9hrs 40min, 95% of time with cruise control on in 6th at GPS 104kph (or 108 on the dash) - driving the inland way not coast way so very little traffic and clocked in at 9.3L/100km - that is the same as my 4cyl Turbo diesel Prado...
Wish when I got the PPF done 12 months ago that I went with the stealth on the grey sections...maybe down the track........best decision ever to put PPF over the whole beast
Woops, my bad - wrong colour cars :facepalm::like:, sorry Andrew........I was contemplating doing that way, but hoping someone has a lift I can borrow for a carton, getting too old to turtle around under cars
Hey Bimmer,
Have taken my DH to the local track - Qld Raceway, and it rained for 3 of the 5 sessions, and was still so much fun.....I did get the rear to step out coming out of turn 5, that was when it started raining the first time and I had the right rear on the painted line.
DH is stock...
Hey Adam,
Sounds awesome, hoping to get H and Hotdog combination sorted after Christmas.......if I can find someone willing to let me use a lift for an hour, I can knock over myself.......and hang resonator on the wall in the garage
On a separate subject - got year service done - and it sounds like they dropped a bolt or socket into a recess on the LH Front side of car, can hear if going down hill or turning left
You are not the first to have these left in.....mine got removed by PPF installer while up on the jacks.....have in the boot in case I need to transport car in future
I did promise the guys here to report back on a few things.....the last couple of months have been a bit of a struggle
1. First year ownership....no issues and 9000km down, moved to SEQ from NQ, cyclones and floods did not affect.....still love this beast.
2. Removed carbon traps.....there is...
Have found mycar service centre helpful near me, they did my Santa Fe battery hassle free, it is a franchise, so hoping same service everywhere.
Still trying to decide where to get 12 month service done on the Gold coast so I don't have a service situation tale to tell
